Spring is in the air: Corum highlights skin protection actives

Corum is highlighting its various active ingredients designed to tackle the risk of premature ageing and other skin damage from UV rays ahead of spring.

The ingredients include Corum Et-VC, Corum IP-VC, peptides and Corum 5014.

Corum Et-VC is multifunctional Vitamin C derivative with whitening effects but and a patented effect on enhancing hyaluronic acid production.

Its antioxidant properties shield the skin against UV-induced free radicals, which may otherwise trigger inflammatory responses and collagen degradation, leading to premature ageing and wrinkle formation.

Studies also demonstrate its efficacy in significantly enhancing UV protection while reducing the damage caused by blue light and air pollution. With its UV protection and whitening effects, Et-VC is commonly incorporated into sunscreen products, promoting healthy, radiant and youthful skin.

Corum IP-VC is the ester-form of vitamin C with improved stability and ability to penetrate the epidermis.

Aside from inhibiting UVB-induced epidermal barrier disruption, it provides anti-ageing and anti-wrinkle effects, as well as brightening the skin by inhibiting the synthesis of melanin, offering an all-round protection for your skin.

Meanwhile, Corum RSPO MB certified Peptides are the very first oil-dispersible cosmetic peptides on the market since 2006.

The series of CC-MB peptides provides a wide-ranging set of oligopeptides, a type of short peptides, including dipeptide, tripeptide, tetrapeptide, pentapeptide, and hexapeptide.

The peptides exhibit a variety of biological functions to meet your needs, including stimulating collagen and elastin synthesis, strengthening tissue connection, and aiding skin against chronic inflammation to restore skin youth.

To top it off, some of them even can combat photoageing through protecting collagen from UVA damage and reduce inflammation. We also offer the water-soluble version peptides for broader application in personal care products.

Finally, Corum 5014 is a non-greasy emollient offering an outstanding solubility for UV-filters and high pigment dispersing capability in oil-soluble formulations, leaving the skin soft and silky.

Derived from plant sources, Corum 5014 possesses a high spreadability with refreshing feeling, acting as a conditioning agent and a good replacement of C12-15 alkyl benzoate in cosmetic and skincare formulations that leave the skin with a non-sticky and mattifying feel, optimizing the texture in suncare products.

“Our cosmetic ingredients are designed to effectively protect your skin, rejuvenate it, and provide a smooth and pleasant feel,” said a Corum spokeswoman.

“Embrace the sun safely with Corum and experience a joyful spring,” she added.
