The cold, deep waters of the Arctic, in the region near Greenland, are home to different microorganisms that are resistant to the hardships of this place illuminated by the Aurora Borealis. An expedition to this region enabled Lipotrue to develop Årctalis™ from the fermentation of Pseudoalteromonas, an extremophilic microorganism.
Årctalis™ forms a film with a slight tensing effect and helps to increase the production of type I, III and IV collagen, hyaluronic acid, heparan sulphate and elastin, actions that result in increased firmness, support, volume and elasticity of the skin. It also strengthens the barrier function, increasing hydration, and protects the skin against the effects of blue light.
All these activities make Årctalis™ the ideal multifunctional active ingredient for minimalist facial beauty formulations, showing efficacy from 7 days of use, according to studies.
Pseudoalteromonas fermentation extract
As we age, it is natural for the skin's cells, the fibroblasts, to reduce their production of collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycans, macromolecules that are important for skin firmness, elasticity and volume. This reduction, combined with the body's exposure to UV radiation, blue light, pollutants, poor diet, smoking, alcoholism and changes in sleep quality, accelerate the appearance of the signs of ageing, such as expression lines and wrinkles.
With this in mind, as well as protecting the skin against these factors, using cosmetic actives that promote the production of beauty proteins, such as Årctalis™, is the key to preventing and recovering the skin from the effects of time, such as the Chinese moustache.
The nasolabial fold, also called the nasolabial wrinkle or Chinese moustache, is a common mark located perpendicular to the mouth. Because it causes great aesthetic discomfort, alternatives to combat it are much sought after in dermatologists' offices. Årctalis™ is effective in reducing its volume, as well as improving the firmness and elasticity of the area, with results from as little as 7 days (according to studies).
