Effective skin care is based on science and precision: active ingredients in focus

November 20 2023 – Dr. Luise Berger

Your skin, your largest organ, is constantly exposed to changing environmental influences and plays a crucial role in your general well-being and your external appearance. Effective skin care therefore requires not only careful selection of products, but also a thorough understanding of the active ingredients contained in these products. This guide gives you an in-depth look at the key ingredients that are leading the skincare industry today. Learn how these active ingredients work at the molecular level and how they can help optimize the health and beauty of your skin.

Hyaluronic acid: The essential moisturizer

Hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in your body, is a true champion when it comes to moisture retention. It can store a thousand times its own weight in water. It is precisely this property that makes it an indispensable ingredient in skin care, especially for those with dry skin. By integrating hyaluronic acid into your skin care routine, your skin can retain its moisture for longer, resulting in a fresher and more youthful appearance.

Retinol: The multifunctional anti-aging ingredient

Retinol, a derivative of vitamin A, has established itself as one of the most reliable ingredients in anti-aging skincare. It supports cell renewal and collagen production, helping to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, while also evening out pigmentation and combating blemishes.

With the latest regulatory changes, our Retinol Serum 0.3 remains available as a powerful and effective solution. Higher concentrations are now reserved for medical-grade products, but by adjusting the application amount, comparable results can still be achieved. Retinol 0.3 delivers all the proven benefits of retinol while ensuring optimal skin tolerance.

Vitamin C: The antioxidant booster

The antioxidant vitamin C is not only essential for your health but also for your skin. It provides strong protection against harmful free radicals and helps achieve a radiant and even complexion. With our Vitamin C + Biobotox Serum, you will receive a high-quality active ingredient complex that specifically aims to protect your skin from oxidative stress and promote its natural radiance.

Azelaic acid: Effective against impurities

Are you fighting against blemishes and acne? Then azelaic acid could be your new best friend. This active ingredient is known for its ability to regulate sebum production and have an antibacterial effect. It helps maintain a clear and healthy complexion.

Peptides: promoters of skin renewal

Peptides, these small but powerful chains of amino acids, are highly valued in the cosmetics industry. They signal your skin to increase collagen production, resulting in firmer and more elastic skin. Discover peptides in many of our products, such as our night creams, Immediate Skin Repair, or Hyaluron Lifting Serum, and experience how they help your skin renew itself from within.
