Pycnogenolgel

®

Every skin likes to be pampered.

Pycnogenol® gel is recommended: • for daily skin care – better hydration, circulation and firmness of the skin • for faster skin regeneration • for protection against UV rays – in combination with a suitable sunscreen

It regenerates, soothes and hydrates the skin.

Pycnogenol® gel plays a unique role in cosmetics due to its ingredients: • the most potent natural antioxidant (bark extract from Pinus maritima) • allantoin and panthenol • Aloe vera • hyaluronic acid Pycnogenol® binds strongly to collagen and elastin fibres, protecting them against free radicals and degrading enzymes and thereby slowing down the aging of the skin. With its anti-inflammatory action, it reduces the appearance of skin redness caused by UV rays, which destroy collagen fibres. It also regenerates the oxidized form of vitamin C, thereby stimulating collagen production.

Allantoin and panthenol promote cell metabolism and regeneration of epithelial cells.

Aloe vera soothes and hydrates the skin and has anti-inflammatory activity.

Hyaluronic acid is the most potent natural moisturizer which forms a thin film on the skin’s surface and accelerates the healing of wounds. Thanks to its hydrophilic properties it creates a moist environment around cells, thereby facilitating the exchange of nutrients.
