Active ingredients

• Vitamin-C-Tetra 15% - Vitamin-C-Tetra is a new, highly effective, extremely stable and at the same time mild form of vitamin C that penetrates particularly deep into the skin. It effectively protects the skin from UV damage, stimulates collagen production, reduces fine lines and wrinkles and hyperpigmentation.
• Blood rain algae - Astaxanthin, obtained from the blood rain algae, is one of the most powerful antioxidants in the world. It effectively protects the skin from free radicals and inhibits the breakdown of collagen.
• Indian watersabel / Tigergrass / Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica Extract) - In Ayurvedic medicine it is called water in Indiaabel also "tiger grass" and is one of the most important medicinal plants. According to legend, wounded tigers wallow in the leaves of the plant for better wound healing. Tiger grass has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and regenerative effects on the skin. The plant promotes wound healing and the build-up of collagen. Tiger grass has proven itself especially for the care of mature skin, as it stimulates blood circulation. Thanks to the high proportion of lutein, Gotu Kola provides effective protection against blue light.
• Organic Ginkgo Biloba has been known as a medicinal herb since ancient times and is a powerful adaptogen from TCM. Ginkgo is packed with antioxidants that can fight free radicals and reduce the signs of premature aging. Ginkgo also has anti-inflammatory, cleansing and sunscreen properties and is a rich source of vitamin E.
• Plum kernel oil (Prunus domestica seed oil) contains powerful anti-aging ingredients and can improve the body's own production of collagen and elastin. The high concentration of vitamins A and E support the fight against free radicals and thus against premature skin aging. They also stimulate cell renewal, strengthen the skin's protective barrier and protect the skin from moisture loss. The gentle oil has a silky-soft texture and smells of fine marzipan.
• Squalane or squalane oil (squalane) is a light, non-comedogenic and non-greasy oil that leaves your skin silky smooth. Squalane is a natural component of our skin barrier and is therefore very well absorbed by our skin. It protects the skin from moisture loss and prevents the skin's own fats from oxidizing. The regenerating oil prevents age spots, reduces the appearance of wrinkles, makes the skin supple and promotes the oxygen supply and regeneration of the cells. It is mostly obtained from olive oil, more rarely from rice germ or wheat germ oil. For cosmetics, squalene is converted into squalane. Squalane no longer contains any unsaturated compounds and is therefore resistant to oxidation and has a longer shelf life. Incidentally, squalane was originally obtained from shark liver, hence the name. Squalus is the Latin name for shark.
• Natural vitamin E. - strengthens the skin barrier and protects against free radicals. At the same time, our high-dose vitamin E acts as a natural preservative and keeps our oil fresh for a long time.
