Key Ingredients: Phospholipids: Major building components in the structure of any cellular membrane essential for all vital physiological processes. These natural skin identical ingredients demonstrate moisturising, restructuring and protective properties. Hyaluronic acid: An important natural component of skin. Zelens uses a low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (HA) with unique moisturising properties. HA improves skin moisture, helps to retain and maintain skin elasticity and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. Omega-6 fatty acids: Completely natural omega acids obtained from safflower oil. Reinforce skin’s natural lipid barrier and strengthen its function. Help reduce transepidermal water loss and increase skin softness and smoothness. Sphingolipids: Help to protect and reinforce skin’s natural hydro-lipidic barrier. Myristyl Malate Phosphonic Acid: Developed on latest progresses in cosmetogenomics, this powerful ingredient uses new concept to improve skin moisture: it helps recreate the skin’s natural moisture balance. Simulates enzymes involved in the production of the Natural Moisturising Factor (NMF) and reinforces barrier function. Cocoa butter: Obtained from the Cocoa seeds (Theobroma Cacao). Demonstrates excellent moisturising properties. Increases the skin’s softness and suppleness. Cupuacu butter: Obtained from the fruit seed of the Cupuacu tree (Theobroma Grandiflorum) native to the Amazon rainforest in Brazil. Rich in essential fatty acids and phytosterols, cupuacu butter provides superior moisture, promotes skin elasticity and improves the appearance of prematurely aging and thinning skin. Glycerin: Naturally present in the skin, glycerin used in Zelens products is a completely vegetable molecule derived from plan oils. It is an excellent humectant, a substance that attracts moisture from the environment and increase the amount of water in the surface layers of the skin. Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride: Derived from coconut oil and glycerin. Demonstrates excellent emollient and skin-repairing properties. Shiso leaf (Perilla, Japanese mint): Rich in polyphenols (particularly Rosmarinic acid) and triterpenoids (particularly Ursolic acid), natural molecules that demonstrate antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-allergic bioactivities. Shiso leaf acts as a powerful antioxidant defending skin from free radical damage. It helps to prevent skin reactivity and soothes sensitive skin. Shiso leaf is well-known in Kampo medicine for its strong detox properties. Vitamin E: An antioxidant with a key role in the protection of cellular membranes from free radicals.
