1. Thanks to its unique structure, Ecoskin® promotes the balance of the skin microbiota by acting as a substrate for commensal bacteria and strengthening the natural defense of the skin.
2. Thanks to its richness in natural sugar (GOS and FOS), Ecoskin® improves skin aspect and comfort.

Thus, Ecoskin® enhances the radiance of the complexion and reduces sensations of discomfort, characteristic of sensitive and dry skin.

TEFLOSE®: Teflose® is a polysaccharide obtained by bacterial fermentation having a branched structure containing rhamnose, glucose and glucuronic acid. Teflose® is an exclusive MICROBIOTA-FRIENDLY active ingredient:

1. Thanks to its unique mode of action, targeting adhesion, biofilms and bacterial virulence, Teflose® maintains microbiota equilibrium by preventing hyperproliferation of certain bacterial types responsible for dysbiosis (i.e. imbalances).
2. Thanks to its high rhamnose content (60%), Teflose® has a high anti-inflammatory and soothing power.

Thus, skin problems caused by microbiota imbalance and / or inflammation, such as acne, atopic dermatitis, or the development of odors, can be effectively regulated or prevented.

RHAMNOSOFT®: Rhamnosoft® HP is a bacterial polysaccharide whose saccharidic structure is particularly rich in rhamnose, enabling it to limit the propagation of messages between skin cells following an aggression, and thus attenuate the resulting inflammatory reactions. Rhamnosoft® HP acts as a trap by fixing itself on the membrane receptors of the aggressed keratinocytes. This efficiency does not depend of a particular aggression agent, U.V. radiations, pollution, exposition to chemicals. Rhamnosoft® HP is actively soothing by helping to attenuate the skin inflammatory reactions. Moreover, Rhamnosoft® HP permits to combine protection with well-being by stimulating β-endorphins release: pleasure molecules.

POLLUSTOP®: Created to form a film on the skin and hair surface, Glycofilm®/Pollustop® is an anionic polysaccharide of high molecular weight, obtained by biotechnology. Thanks to its matrix-forming property, Glycofilm®/Pollustop® makes barrier to the 3 types of pollution stresses: Atmospheric (carbon particles, particulate matter, and heavy metals), UV and Domestic (chemicals) and so limit the skin extra and intracellular induced damages (oxidative stress, inflammation, cellular and mitochondrial toxicity, etc.), but also prevent the alteration of hair fiber by oxidative pollution.

REVYSKIN®: ReVYskin® is an aqueous extract obtained from subcritical water extraction (SolaGreen® SuperFluids Technology) from organic goji berries (Lycium barbarum) and stabilized in organic vegetable glycerin. ReVYskin® has a global action to harmonize V and Y shapes:

1. By counteracting Adip'Aging, ReVYskin® contributes to the anti-inflammatory protection of the inflamed hypodermis and stimulates neosynthesis of lipids
2. By limiting facial sagging, ReVYskin®maintains the skin barrier properties and improves the cohesion between different structures which composed it
3. By protecting the epidermal barrier, ReVYskin® naturally soothes the epidermis

ReVYskin® represents a new strategy to challenge Adip'Aging thanks to an intensive biological lipofilling action: remodeling and harmonization facial contours and volumes including V and Y shapes!

RESISTRESS®: Resistress® is an extract of Sophora japonica flowers, enriched in quercetin dimers by enzymatic bioconversion. The dimerization of quercetin by the Laccase Technology (Solabia Patent) allows the increased biological activity of this plant-based flavonoid. Resistress® prevents the skin burnout by stimulating the systems of defenses and repair. In this way, it fights against the premature aging, main consequence of skin burnout.

INVINCITY®: Invincity® is a concentrated form of fucoidans of high molecular weight. It is produced after aqueous extraction of the intracellular polysaccharides of a brown alga, Ascophyllum nodosum. Invincity® regulates biological response pathway to pollution by limiting the activation of the AhR pathway, the major biological pathway of response to pollutants and reduce pollution-induced skin damage. Moreover, Invincity® protects the skin from damaging effects of pollution by reducing Oxi-proteome and thus preserving their functions and by maintaining the dermo-epidermal cutaneous structure, ensuring the skin barrier function

Invincity® prevents the skin aging by fighting against dehydration, dark spots, and redness.

PHYSIOGENYL®: Physiogenyl® is an optimized blend of 4 minerals and trace elements essential to the body: sodium, zinc, magnesium and manganese. These are bound to L-Pyrrolidone Carboxylic Acid, or L-PCA, a physiological molecule found in the skin.
