Bioinspired by Isodon japonicus and its ability to stand upright despite the effect of gravity, Codif’s laboratories have developed an extract able to improve the structural quality of the skin in order to decrease signs of ageing while minimizing the impact of gravity constraint on the skin
ABSTRACT
Science has definitely shown and convinced consumers of the pro-ageing action of our exposome. Sun exposure, pollution, tobacco but also lifestyle are directly affecting skin structure and youth. Among all these factors, gravity remains a parameter that cannot be avoided and mastered. With ageing, skin less firm and subject to the effects of gravity, stretches without being able to retract; accentuating the depth of wrinkles. Bioinspired by Isodon japonicus and its ability to stand upright despite the effect of gravity, Codif’s laboratories have developed an extract able to improve the structural quality of the skin in order to decrease signs of ageing while minimizing the impact of gravity constraint on the skin
The exposome concept was introduced by the American cancer epidemiologist Christopher Wild in 2005 as a way to explain the complex exposures we face as humans.1 Indeed, the exposome represents the totality of exposures we are in front of throughout our complete lives. It includes the food we ingest, the air we breathe, the objects we touch, the psychological stresses we face, the activities in which we engage, and the broader social factors that impact our health.1-7 Because of the differences in specific organs, it is very difficult to propose single definition of the exposome.
