Rahn remedies scalp, boosts skin brightness with actives duo

Rahn has unveiled two cosmetic active ingredients, Illumiscin-Glow and Scalpinist-Senso, which are designed to boost skin brightness and scalp care respectively.

The Swiss maker says Illumiscin-Glow provides a bright and even skin complexion for consumers around the globe, regardless of ethnicity or gender.

Hordatines, obtained from upcycled brewers’ barley sprouts, were identified by AI as brand new inhibitors of tyrosinase, a key modulator of our skin tone.

Clinical studies have shown that Illumiscin-Glow significantly reduces skin tanning, the intensity of sun spots and melasma.

It acts as an anti-inflammatory, is gentle on the skin and provides a comfortable skin feel. It makes the skin brighter, more radiant and luminous.

Extensive studies on multi-ethnic skin groups have shown general suitability and efficacy for all skin types.

Meanwhile, Scalpinist-Senso aims to alleviate scalp discomfort within two weeks by restoring balance to the disturbed microbiome and reducing scalp sebum through a simple rinse-off application.

By decreasing sebum production, Scalpinist-Senso directly influences the scalp microbiota, restoring its balance.

In vitro studies confirm the inhibition of Cutibacterium acnes and an anti-inflammatory activity through the inhibition of pro-inflammatory enzymes COX-1, COX-2 and 5-LOX.

Scalpinist-Senso is obtained by extracting Maclura cochinchinensis leaves rich in prenylated bioflavonoids.
