OLIVAL - Amino Activator CM 50ml

AMINO ACID COMPLEX
It is a high-value blend of non-essential and essential amino acids that are an important part of the natural functions of our skin, primarily moisturizing and maintaining hydration levels. These are NMFs, i.e. natural moisturizing factors. This series of amino acids provides a whole range of important effects on the skin, from deep hydration, soothing to strengthening resistance and restoring the barrier.

CM-NARINGENIN CHALCONE
Carboxy-Methyl (CM)-Naringenin-Chalcone is an active ingredient derived from a natural polyphenol (naringenin chalcone) that can be found in the peel of citrus fruits or tomatoes. It is a new and innovative molecule with a strong anti-inflammatory effect, intended for targeted skin care with rosacea or generally sensitive skin prone to itching and redness.

This active ingredient brings multiple proven effects. First of all, it significantly reduces the inflammatory response of the skin by reducing the appearance of the antimicrobial peptide cathelicidin LL37 in our body. Namely, in normal, balanced skin, the levels of this peptide are very low, while in skin with rosacea, the levels of cathelicidin LL37 are extremely high.

This peptide is one of the primary mechanisms of a kind of skin defense against stressors. However, in addition to signaling possible microbial activity in the skin and thereby "telling" it that it must defend itself, this peptide also stimulates the appearance of proinflammatory (inflammatory) substances such as cytokines and chemokines. This actually maintains the continuous inflammatory state characteristic of rosacea. By reducing the levels of cathelicinin LL37, CM-Naringenin Chalcone alleviates chronic skin inflammation.

In addition, it significantly reduces capillary redness, protects and soothes stressed skin, and provides a sense of relief for itchy or irritated skin.

AZELOGLYCINE
Azeloglycine is an innovative derivative of azelaic acid that is more tolerable on the skin than classic azelaic acid. It is also more compatible with many other ingredients and products, and more importantly, it is one of the key ingredients for proven rosacea symptom relief.

Otherwise, it provides a very wide range of valuable effects, from acting on acne with an antimicrobial effect and balancing sebum secretion to strongly soothing the erythema characteristic of chronic skin conditions such as rosacea.

The presence of glycine provides a deep moisturizing effect and strengthens the natural barrier function, which is essential for the recovery and healthy functions of the skin.

MILK THISTLE EXTRACT
This extract has been known for centuries as a dietary supplement due to the active component called silymarin, but it also has exceptional benefits in skin care. First of all, it is a strong antioxidant, it works against the negative effects of external stressors of the skin, which is the action of free radicals, and thus damage to the skin at the cellular level (UV radiation, smog, impurities).

Research shows that it also has an anti-glycation effect, which means that it prevents the reaction of sugar with the building proteins of the skin, and thus the premature aging of the skin associated with an inadequate diet or the intake of foods rich in sugar.

POLYGLUTAMIC ACID
It comes in the form of sodium polyglutamate, a natural form and an acid valuable to the skin in the form of a salt. It is known for its extraordinary properties of providing hydration and preventing transepidermal moisture loss. Experts point out that polyglutamic acid molecules can carry up to 4 times more water than hyaluronic acid, which means strong hydration.

BETAINE
It is an osmolyte and an osmoprotectant, which means that it balances the hydration levels in the skin cells. In addition to having a direct effect on the skin's ability to adequately retain moisture, it is an important part of maintaining a healthy skin barrier, thus preventing premature aging. Effectively protects and soothes and contributes to the feeling of relief in irritated or sensitive skin.

PANTHENOL
It is a well-known ingredient in cosmetics intended for a wide variety of skin types and needs. It has a protective and soothing effect, and provides softness and elasticity to the skin. It is an extremely important ingredient for achieving optimal skin health, since only healthy skin can absorb moisture well and retain it in its layers.

How to use

Amino activator CM can be used in the morning (recommended with SPF, not because of the ingredients, but because of the very importance of protecting sensitive skin from the sun) and in the evening or as needed.

It can be used alone, but can be combined with certain Professional serums, depending on the needs of the skin itself.
