Activating cream with ferulic acid

Activating cream with ferulic acid | FERULIC ACTIVATOR

This ferulic acid cream-activator has a strong antioxidant and rejuvenating effect. It contains three types of acids, enzymes, four peptides, vitamin E. It can be used for intensive skin care at home or to prepare the skin before professional chemical peeling procedures. The product is very effective, promotes skin exfoliation, renewal, reduces pigmentation, regulates skin pH, reduces skin sensitivity, redness and symptoms of rosacea.

It must be used in combination with daytime "All Day Shield" cream that protects the skin from the effects of UV rays during the day.

Effects of Ferulic Acid:

It is found in nature as a free acid in many plants or as an ester, mainly in the seeds, leaves and bark of plants. Ferulic acid is very interesting because of its multifunctional effects. It acts as a chemical agent that absorbs UV rays and protects against the harmful effects of the sun. In this way, the ferulic acid present in the bark, leaves and seeds of the plant protects the plant from harmful sunlight. Ferulic acid has strong antioxidant properties that fight reactive oxygen species, repairing DNA damage. Ferulic acid in complex with peptides has a synergistic antioxidant effect against the peroxidation of unsaturated fatty acids and other types of lipids. The antioxidant effect helps reduce inflammation and skin sensitivity. Ferulic acid, together with lactic acid, restores the PH of the skin and reduces the growth of bacteria.

Effects of lactic acid:

1. Restoration of the pH balance of the skin: the activity of the enzymes involved in the synthesis of the skin barrier formation depends on the pH of the skin, changes in which may occur due to harmful environmental effects, the use of decorative cosmetics, improper skin care or certain pathologies. Lactic acid helps to balance the pH of the skin, promotes regeneration processes.

2. Keratolytic effect: lactic acid breaks the bonds of corneocytes located in the stratum corneum of the epidermis, resulting in exfoliation of the stratum corneum. This process promotes skin renewal due to increased cell proliferation in the basal layer of the epidermis.

3. Moisturizing effect: lactic acid, as one of the substances contained in NMF (natural moisturizing factor), has a strong moisturizing effect. Lactic acid is able to attract and retain moisture in the stratum corneum of the epidermis.

4. Stretching effect: lactic acid stimulates the proliferation of fibroblasts. Fibroblasts produce collagen and elastin fibers in the extracellular medium, fibronectin and are responsible for the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans. 

Effects of tranexamic acid:

In 1979, the first data on the effect of tranexamic acid on the color intensity of melasma were presented after 2-3 weeks of use. In addition to the lightening effect, tranexamic acid also has an effect on superficial dilated capillaries, which become less noticeable or not visible at all on the surface of the skin. Tranexamic acid in a complex with lactic and ferulic acids has a positive effect on rosacea. Tranexamic acid reduces redness, ferulic acid - inflammation, lactic acid inhibits the reproduction of bacteria (propionibacterium acnes and staphylococcus epidermidis), which cause acne and rosacea.

Peptides

Matrikins (Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7) stimulate the production of extracellular matrix components collagen, elastin, fibronectin, transmit signals to fibroblasts, which start producing new matrix components in order to replace the damaged ones.

Melanostatin peptide (Nonepeptide-1) regulates melanogenesis - affects the process of melanogenesis, reduces pigment production.

Juveleven peptide (Acetyl Hexapeptide-51) is a peptide complex that mimics the natural human genetic factor (Fox-O3O) that can reverse cell aging and repair genetic damage. Protects DNA from damage, stimulates natural repair processes and restores aging fibroblasts.

Active substances: ferulic acid (0,5%), lactic acid (3%), tranexamic acid (0,5%), enzymes (0,3%), Juveleven DNA protection peptide (1%), pcarpal lipo-peptides (2%), Melanostatin anti-pigmentation peptide (1%).

Usage: using the product alone, without professional chemical peeling procedures - use in the evenings for up to 5-6 weeks, during the day it is necessary to use "All Day Shield" cream with UV protection.
In combination with professional chemical peeling procedures, use in the evening for up to 2-3 weeks, during the day it is necessary to use "All Day Shield" cream with UV protection.
