Rice Extract stimulates the synthesis of filaggrin, a protein involved in improving the structural integrity of the stratum corneum (outermost skin layer), therefore reinforcing the barrier function of skin, promoting collagen synthesis and increasing skin suppleness and firmness. Quinoa Extract is rich in essential fatty acids. They restore the skin’s barrier function, which helps keeping the skin hydrated and soft. The extract is a good source of lysine and methionine, both of which are amino acids playing a role in the synthesis of collagen – the protein that maintains the strength and firmness of skin. Chia Extract helps minimising the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and enlarged pores, while making the skin radiant.
