In collaboration with an expert in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Mibelle Biochemistry has developed a protective and soothing active called EpiCalmin TCM to reinforce the skin’s natural defence system.
The comprehensive efficacy results from the synergic composition of flowers, fruits and roots of three selected herbs well known in Traditional Chinese Medicine. For the first time the mechanism of activity of this plant remedy has been scientifically demonstrated. Gene array analysis clearly proved that EpiCalmin TCM reinforces the skin’s self-protection and reduces the degradation of the extra-cellular matrix. In vivo, EpiCalmin TCM was shown to significantly reduce irritation and increase skin hydration. Thus EpiCalmin TCM, which is ECOCERT approved, actively protects the skin and prevents premature skin ageing. The INCI/CTFA Declaration for EpiCalmin TCM is: Lonicera japonica flower extract / Lonicera japonica (Honeysuckle) flower extract (and) Xanthium sibiricum fruit extract (and) Cyperus rotundus root extract (and) sodium benzoate (and) aqua / water.
