VITAMIN D ENRICHED SKIN
DEWY & DEEPLY HYDRATED SKIN
A NEW D-APPROACH FOR SUN CARE
About the active
Optimizing vitamin D topically for a turgent, radiant, and luminous skin.
NECTARIA LITHOPS™ is an active ingredient that biophysically optimizes the skin microenvironment and vitamin D levels on the skin and brings a new concept, the D-Skin. This is a deeply hydrated and dewy skin, more strenghtened, revitalized, and volumized.

Mechanism of action
Biophysically optimizing the vitamin D synthesis on the skin
Increasing hydration & water reserves in skin deepest layers
Strong spatial organization of cell membranes
Improving skin microcirculation & oxygenation
The concept
The concept of D-Skin begins with a biophysical mechanism of action: an active ingredient that optimizes the skin microenvironment and improves the water level of the skin deepest layers by having a vitamin D enriched skin. This approach increases skin dewiness and cheeks' volume, improves oxygenation, microcirculation, the tone, and the texture of the skin.
Thanks to the optimization of vitamin D levels, we achieve a D-Skin: Dewy, Deeply hydrated, D-lighted, a D-Approach for Sun Care, Vitamin D enriched.
Deeply hydrated and structured skin that shines from the inside out!

The plant
Lithops pseudotruncatella, a succulent plant native to the deserts of southern Africa, known as “Living Stones”, is specialized in managing water, space, and light to survive in very extreme conditions.
A very long-lived plant in the most extreme climate: it can live up to 95 years!
To maintain healthy cells and water levels during periods of extreme drought, this plant uses a secret weapon: the structuring of sugars. This structuring together with a peculiar metabolism allows Lithops to capture the light necessary for its photosynthesis without compromising its water balance.

PHOTO-PROTECTION AGAINST SOLAR RADIATION
BIO-BASED PROTECTION AGAINST PHOTO-INDUCED AGEING
BROAD SPECTRUM PROTECTION
About the active
Defensive molecules to protect the skin from global sun radiation.
ARABIAN COTTON™ is an active enriched in defensive plant molecules that protect and repair cell structures against sun damage. It provides photoprotection against UV, IR, and VIS radiation, and fights against photo-ageing with a broad-spectrum antioxidant effect.

The concept
Photoinduced aging or photoaging is the result of an accumulation of damage (photo damage) that modifies the cutaneous appearance to a greater or lesser extent.
The most recent trend in photoprotection is to study the existence of a complementary process, whereby the natural photobiological compounds (ARABIAN COTTON™) would show the ability to act on the photodynamic targets (as secondary filters), protecting the cell metabolism and inhibiting inflammatory and degenerative processes whose result is known as photoinduced aging.

The plant
Gossypium herbaceum, the Arabian Cotton, is an extremophile native plant from semi-arid regions of sub Saharan Africa and Arabia.
Due to the hard environmental conditions, Arabian Cotton has developed a great diversity of defensive molecules (phenols and flavonoids) that help the plant cell to protect and repair its structures against sun damage.
