INGREDIENTS A-Z

Oligo Hyaluron (very small molecule) 

SOURCE

Synthetic

CATEGORY

Synthetic • Natural • Naturally-Derived • Biotechnological/Fermentation • Fermentation

WHAT IT DOES

Oligohyaluron >4 kDalton
Oligo hyaluronic acid is undisputedly the holy grail of hyaluronic acids, with an extremely low molecular weight that allows it to be absorbed deepest into the skin.
It is stored in the connective tissue, which leads to a longer-lasting plumping effect and anti-wrinkle impact. In addition, the skin appears noticeably firmer due to the extra moisture.
Thanks to transdermal absorption, the extremely short-chain molecules lead to particularly deep, lasting hydration and contribute to the repair of damaged cells.

Oryza sativa cera

SOURCE

Rice bran

CATEGORY

Synthetic • Natural • Naturally-derived • Biotechnological/Fermentation • Fermentation

WHAT IT DOES

Octyldodecanol

SOURCE

Synthetic

CATEGORY

Synthetic • Natural • Naturally-Derived • Biotechnological/Fermentation • Fermentation

WHAT IT DOES

Octyldodecanol is a fatty alcohol that works as an emollient. It is easily absorbed into your skin and gives it a smooth and silky skin feeling. Octyldodecanol also helps to improve the spreadability of products. Free from ethanol/alcohol.

Oligohyaluronate <4 kDa

SOURCE

Biotechnological/Fermentation

CATEGORY

Synthetic • Natural • Naturally-Derived • Biotechnological/Fermentation • Fermentation

WHAT IT DOES

Oligohyaluronate, with a size of <4 kDa or is the smallest molecular weight form of hyaluronic acid and has strong hydrating and anti-aging properties: It has a much lower molecular weight than traditional hyaluronic acid, allowing it to penetrate your skin more easily and very deeply, resulting in strongly improved hydration and plumpness. Oligohyaluronate also stimulates collagen production, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
