L-Carnitine is a skin-endogenous amino acid derivative synthesized from lysine and methionine. It plays a crucial role in cellular energy metabolism by facilitating β-oxidation, the process by which fatty acids are converted into energy.

Key benefits are:

• Sebum Regulation: Facilitates the uptake of fatty acids into mitochondria, where they are converted into energy rather than sebum, effectively reducing excess sebum production.
• Lipid Metabolism Activation: Enhances cellular β-oxidation (“fat burning”) and reduces intracellular lipid accumulation, contributing to a balanced skin environment.

Vitamin C is a skin‘s own ingredient and functions as a major hydrophilic antioxidant. It is an essential micro-nutrient, that cannot be synthesized by the human body and has to be taken up by the diet (main source: fruits and vegetables). Vitamin C neutralizes free radicals and thereby protects skin from oxidative stress (ROS, reactive oxygen species) provoked by external stressors such as UV light and pollution. An imbalance of the antioxidative system can lead to oxidative damage of macromolecules such as DNA, lipids and proteins. Besides its antioxidant function vitamin C is an essential cofactor in collagen synthesis.

Vitamin E (also known as Tocopherol) is a powerful anti-oxidant that protects skin against the free radicals that cause oxidative stress and helps to support its natural resilience.

Licochalcone A on voimakas antioksidantti. Se on tulehdusta ehkäisevä tai lievittävä (anti-inflammatorinen) ja ihoa rauhoittava ainesosa. Licochalcone A on peräisin kiinalaisen lakritsikasvin (Glycyrrhiza Inflata) juuresta, joka käyttää luonnollisia yhdisteitä suojelemaan solujaan liialliselta auringonvalolta. 

Ihonhoitotuotteissa käytettynä Licochalcone A vähentää tulehdusta ja neutraloi vapaita radikaaleja, jotka vaikuttavat negatiivisesti ihosoluihin ja nopeuttavat ikääntymisprosessia. Se auttaa suojaamaan ihon syvempiä ihokerroksia auringon aiheuttamilta vaikutuksilta.

Glysyrretiinihappo on peräisin kiinalaisen lakritsikasvin (Glycyrrhiza Glabra) juurista ja se tunnetaan antioksidanttisista ja ihoa rauhoittavista ominaisuuksistaan. Glysyrretiinihappo auttaa suojaamaan ihosoluja syvissä epidermaalisissa kerroksissa UV-säteilyn aiheuttamilta, haitallisilta vapailta radikaaleilta. Samalla se tukee ihon omaa DNA-korjausmekanismia.
