ILLUMINANT C-CLEANSER 200ML

VITAMIN C GENTLE CLEANSER 

Naturalness Index: 97 percent

This particular formulation is a true shape-shifter that transforms from gel-cream to oil to remove facial impurities. Its lipid composition is rich in Vitamin C encapsulated and protected by microspheres. Upon contact with the skin's heat, the spheres melt, releasing Vitamin C onto the epidermis. The antioxidant and protective action toward external agents thus begins from the very first step of skincare, cleansing, which is the moment of paramount importance for obtaining maximum benefits from subsequent treatments. This sensory cleanser, which melts under the fingers and transforms into oil, is the first choice for removing makeup and for the natural daily cleansing of the face while fully respecting the skin's hydrolipid balance. A complex of functional active ingredients protects the epidermis by strengthening its barrier function.

How to use: apply to the face and distribute in circular motions using a soft cotton ball. Rinse with warm water and pat dry with a soft towel.

Active ingredients.

Vitamin C: Present in the form of Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, a highly bioavailable form of Vitamin C, enclosed in encapsulated spheres between 1 and 1.6 mm in diameter that open during application, spilling their contents onto the skin, which are kept intact. Magnesium ascorbyl phosphate is a precursor to ascorbic acid, which salifies the molecule and supports a phosphate group: it is a stable and bioavailable form of vitamin C. Enzymes in the skin release Vitamin C (ascorbic acid), which is an effective antioxidant that protects cells from damage caused by radical freedom and oxidative stress and counteracts skin aging by promoting collagen formation. It also acts on the melanin formation process by preventing hyperpigmentation.

Red grape skin extract: The skin protects grapes from UV overexposure, pathogen attacks, environmental pollution and adverse weather conditions. The thousands of different molecules that grapes are able to synthesize and accumulate in the skin are the secret to these defenses. 

Tomato peel extract from Upcycling: Tomato peel extract obtained by enzymatic bioliquefaction: this is a water-soluble product containing lycopene and specially developed for the cosmetic industry. The protective efficacy of this tomato extract against environmental stresses caused by anthropogenic pollution has been tested and shown to provide high protection against environmental pollution.

Vitamin E: The most widely used active ingredient in the beauty industry, vitamin E has demonstrated antioxidant effects, improves hydration and strengthens the skin barrier. Vitamin E helps counteract the appearance of inflammation related to oxidative processes through downregulation of its mediators. As one of the most powerful oil-soluble antioxidants and free radical scavengers available today, vitamin E plays a crucial role in oxidative regeneration of skin exposed to stressors.

Argan oil: rich in antioxidants, it protects skin from external aggressions and improves its hydration, defenses and elasticity.

Hydrolyzed algae extract: this active opens the door to new neurocosmetic strategies. Beyond nerve cell communications, it decodes, targets and provides preventive and curative treatment against skin neuroaging. Aging of neurons directly affects the communication between nerves and fibroblasts, triggering a fall in the viability of these cells and a decrease in collagen and elastin synthesis. The active protects neurons from neurodegeneration by activating neuroprotectants, restores proper communication between nerves and fibroblasts by also promoting the activation of genes coding for extracellular matrix proteins, thereby increasing the amount of collagen, elastin, and laminin present. This results in a decrease in signs of skin aging.

Anti-wrinkle peptide: an active ingredient with a marked anti-aging effect due to its ability to promote collagen and elastin synthesis. Recent studies have highlighted that this active ingredient is a biomimetic peptide derived from the youth hormone, thymopoietin. It offers an innovative approach to skin care: by compensating for the natural loss of thymic factors related to the decline of the thymus with age, it increases the skin's immunovigilance, stimulates the skin's immune defenses, and helps regenerate the epidermal profile, providing a powerful barrier against external factors.

Redensifying peptide: reduces and prevents the formation of expression lines and wrinkles by actively generating new skin cells. Strengthens skin elasticity by inducing collagen and elastin synthesis. Based on hi-tech double-layer micro-encapsulation technology, it possesses maximum bioavailability because the integrity of the active molecule is preserved by endogenous proteases until it is released.
