Natural honey, straight from the beehive, is rich in carbohydrates, proteins and trace elements. Another important effect of this complex of active ingredients is the fact that it soothes and protects the skin. Furthermore, it enhances the moisture balance in the skin. To be used with dehydrated, sensitive and/or impure skin.

"Hyaluronic Acid (INCI often SODIUM HYALURONATE) itself is a substance that is widely found in human connective tissue in the skin. This complex molecule takes care of the moisture balance because of its strong hydrating properties.

Hyaluronic acid is a body’s own polymer, frequently occurring in the skin as one of the so called “glycosaminoglycans”, also called “mucopolysaccharides”, the ground substance of connective tissue. The water binding capacity of hyaluronic acid plays a key role in connective tissue, since it determines its viscosity to a high extend. The carbohydrates from which hyaluronic acid is build are alternating N-Acetylglucosamine and D-Glucuronic acid, building a non-branched polymer together. Hyaluronic acid is a polyanion because of the carboxylate functional group of D-Glucuronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is also an important part of cartilage and estimates highly its elastic properties. Furthermore, hyaluronic acid partly determines the viscosity of synovial fluid in the joints, where it has a lubricating function, enabling the joints to move smoothly.

- Molecular Weight: because hyaluronic acid is a polymer, it has a wide range of different molecular weights from 5000 to 20 Million Dalton, which results in a range of mutually varying properties. Low molecular weight is called for example 1 Million Dalton, since the molecular weight of hyaluronic acid in the human body is 4 to 5 Million Dalton on average, while the molecular weight of hyaluronic acid in synovial fluid is 3 to 4 Million Dalton.

- Signal molecules: in the human body hyaluronic acid is broken down on purpose by enzymes, called Hyaluronidases. These breakdown products are usually oligosaccharides and sometimes function as a signal molecule for fibroblasts, that produce new collagen and elastin. When hyaluronic acid is broken down even more, e.g. in the liver, the final decomposition products are a.o. water and carbon dioxide.
- Application: in cosmetics / skin care as a powerful moisturizer upon/in the skin (the horny layer) and also in cosmetic medicine as a (sub)dermal “filler”, in which case usually a cross-linked version is used. A third application in favour of the skin is cosmetic mesotherapy, where the hyaluronic acid is transferred into the skin, 1 mm down at the dermal-epidermal junction, where it stimulates the fibroblasts’ synthesis, resulting in extra collagen and elastin for the skin.

"Algin - Alginates
Alginates (e.g. Natriumalginate) stem from various species of brown seaweed, all with a different biochemical structure resulting in different properties of alginates. In this way 100% natural / biological hydrogels may be created!"

Propolis-extract is well-known in the literature for its antibacterial as well as its (soothing) anti-inflammatory and repairing features. Because of that it is a product suitable for the treatment of dry, irritated and sensitive skin or skin that is susceptible to acne (acne prone skin).

Natural honey offers various components, which are also part of the Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF). In that way it takes care of a good moisture balance in the skin – combined with Hyaluronic Acid in a liposome system – and does it contribute to a well-functioning skin barrier. To be used with dehydrated, sensitive and/or cellulite skin.

"Oak extract (Quercus)
Natural oak extract with tannins, which improve the skin’s resistance against external stress factors, for example with sensitive skin. It also has radical scavenging properties, helping to keep the skin tight."

Is a natural source of pantothenic acid and also contains essential minerals, fats, carbohydrates, water and Vitamins E and F. Used in skin care to activate metabolism and to regenerate the skin.
