Apply one or two pumps of the cream after cleansing - or ideally, after applying Serum Symphonique - and massage it gently and evenly into your skin with your fingertips until the cream is fully absorbed.

Aqua (Water)
Squalane
is an oil naturally occurring in human skin and is an important part of the lipid system. Its penetration capacity is remarkably high. Nanometer droplets of squalane function as effective “transporters” for the A Vitamins and other oil soluble active ingredients. Young and healthy skin contains a high amount of squalane but the level will decrease dramatically with age. Therefore squalane is absorbed excellently into sun damaged and aged skin. A lack of squalane within the skin can lead to premature aging, very dry skin and a loss of elasticity. Areas of constantly exposed, dry and prematurely aged skin such as on the hands, elbows, heals and knees etc become incredibly soft immediately when squalane is applied in the right formulation.

Glycerin
Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2
a palm-based multifunctional ingredient. It has a high water-binding capacity of 200%, is a great film former and helps to improve the skin barrier by reducing trans-epidermal water loss. Its properties are comparable to lanolin and adds a pleasant soft and silky touch to the formulation.

Glyceryl Stearate
Niacinamide
works especially in the extracellular space (the ’mortar’ that keeps the cells together). It prolongs the biological processes that control both the cohesion between the cells and the processes maintaining the functions of the dehydrating cells as long as possible, until they are shed from the surface.

Bakuchiol
A natural antioxidant and anti-aging ingredient found in the seeds and leaves of the plant Psoralea Corylifolia, also known as Babchi. Bakuchiol have been shown to have skin structural-restoring ability when applied topically, and a brightening effect on skin – effects that are very similar to the Vitamin A derivatives. This plant ingredient has shown anti-wrinkle properties, improved elasticity, and a smoother skin surface with visibly improved un-blemished and uneven skin color.

Bis(Cyano Butylacetate) Anthracenediylidene
is a powerful anti-aging antioxidant proven to block sun exposed aging before it even begins. Compared to other antioxidants it works more proactively and effectively – safely preventing the formation of the sun induced damaging reactive oxygen species (ROS) and free radicals. The skin becomes more resistant against UV-radiation and less prone to the sun induced signs of premature aging such as loss of skin elasticity, fine lines and wrinkles.

Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract
is the extract from Liquorice Root. This is well known as a wound healing extract, helping to reduce irritation within the skin and providing instant comfort to sensitive skin. It enables the skin to accept strongly reacting ingredients with less side effects, enabling more effective ingredients to be tolerated by sensitive skin.

Anigozanthos Flavidus (Kangaroo Paw) Extract
is an organic flower extract that acts as an anti-aging and anti-wrinkle agent. It increases the production of the dermal architectural protein (Tenascins-X) and increases dermal protein synthesis of Collagen & Elastin. It firms the skin via increased fibroblast contractile forces and cell turnover.

It rebuilds the skin’s internal architecture and decreases the appearance of both wrinkles and sagging skin.

Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate
is another Vitamin A variant that helps renew skin plumpness, elasticity, and hydration to provide a radiant and fresh appearance. In addition to the benefits achieved by Retinyl Acetate it is known to stimulate skin cell proliferation; restoring thickness to skin that has become thinner over time. These processes help fill in lines and wrinkles to give a youthful appearance, while safeguarding skin from further wrinkle development.

Crocus Sativus (Saffron) Flower Extract
also known as the wonderful yellow spice saffron- has since ancient times been used also for cosmetic purposes. It has anti-aging effects, repairs sun damage, and has soothing properties.
