Bakuchiol BakuchiolPsoralea corylifolia 0.5%
A plant meroterpene that behaves like a retinoid without being one. It is the entry point into the retinol conversation for skin that cannot take retinol's first six weeks.
Mechanism
Gene-expression profiling in human skin models shows bakuchiol upregulating a retinoid-like transcript set, including type I, III and IV collagen, without binding the retinoic acid receptor itself.
Chemical structure, Bakuchiol

Reishi ReishiGanoderma lucidum (Mushroom) Extract 1.25%
One quarter of the 5% mushroom complex, and the quarter carrying the most beta-glucan — the polysaccharide that holds water at the surface of the skin.
Mechanism
Beta-1,3/1,6-glucans are large, highly hydrophilic polysaccharides. They bind water in the stratum corneum and form a film that slows transepidermal water loss.
Chemical structure, Reishi

Sur le complexe

Les quatre champignons sont dosés à 1,25 % chacun, ce qui permet au complexe d'atteindre 5 % sans qu'aucun d'entre eux ne soit saupoudré pour la forme.

Vitamin C Vitamin CTetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate 2.0%
The oil-soluble form of vitamin C. L-ascorbic acid needs a low-pH water phase and begins oxidising the day the bottle is opened; THDA sits stably in an anhydrous oil and stays that way.
Mechanism
A lipid-soluble ascorbyl ester. Cutaneous esterases cleave the palmitate chains, releasing L-ascorbic acid in the epidermis, where it works as an antioxidant and as a cofactor for the hydroxylases involved in collagen synthesis.
Chemical structure, Vitamin C

Vitamin E Vitamin ETocopherol 1.0%
The barrier's own antioxidant, put back. Tocopherol is the primary lipid-phase antioxidant in human skin, and it runs down fastest exactly where the oil is thinnest.
Mechanism
A chain-breaking antioxidant in the lipid phase: it donates a hydrogen atom to lipid peroxyl radicals and terminates the peroxidation chain in barrier lipids, then is regenerated by ascorbate.
Chemical structure, Vitamin E
