The Zalakaros Thermal Water Firming Face Cream 45+ is a nourishing and deeply moisturizing cream against wrinkles and pigmentation spots! This newly developed face cream fights the visible signs of skin ageing. Containing macadamia oil and betaine, it leaves the skin soft and smooth, while strengthening and hydrating. Peptide improves the ability of skin cells to renew themselves and fades and fills in deeper wrinkles. The pigment spot fading active ingredient makes skin tone uniformly radiant, so skin can remain richly nourished and supple as it ages! Specially formulated to meet the needs of mature skin, this easily absorbed cream does not weigh down the skin or clog pores. Its active ingredients moisturise, firm and fill in deeper wrinkles and help collagen production. Soon after application, it smoothes out fine lines and helps to preserve the skin's youthful appearance. Main special ingredients: HIARULONSIC ACID COMPLEX: penetrates deeper into the skin, where its water-retaining properties keep the skin hydrated. Stimulates the skin's own production of hyaluronic acid, which keeps the skin firmer and younger, and improves the structure of collagen fibres. It strengthens the cellular connections in the upper layer of the skin, preventing water evaporation from the deeper layers of the skin, and also strengthens the skin's protective functions, helping to regenerate the tissues. Maintains the water balance of the epidermis. Its deficiency is partly responsible for skin ageing. ALOE VERA: hydrating/ The plant is native to South Africa, but is cultivated in many parts of the world (India, China, Egypt), even used as an ornamental plant. It contains mucilages and resinous substances such as aloe emodin. Plant mucilages are high molecular weight polysaccharides. Both substances have antiseptic properties and anti-inflammatory effects. The extract also has astringent properties, while its composition allows it to be easily absorbed and moisturises the epidermis. Vitamin E: binds harmful free radicals, helping to delay the appearance of wrinkles and maintain skin firmness. Vitamin E, also known as tocopherol, increases skin moisture, softness and smoothness. It is also known to have a sunscreen effect, protecting against harmful rays. It has an important role in preventing the formation of free radicals. Free radicals are also produced in the skin by ultraviolet radiation and damage the structure of the skin. This is partly the result of skin ageing and the development of skin cancer. It is used in cosmetic products as an anti-ageing vitamin. When used in high concentrations (2-5%), it has a good cell-protective, vitalising effect. LIGHTENING ANYAG (Azeloyl diglycate): fades pigmentation spots, resulting in a more even skin tone and a more youthful appearance (+ also has a moisturising effect). PEPTIDE ACTION: acts on specific receptors in the skin cells, „sending a message to the cell”, which speeds up the skin cell renewal process, making the skin more elastic, firmer, younger-looking, and reducing the depth of wrinkles. MAKADAMIA OLIVE: A type of nut native to Australia. Its fruit has a soft, creamy consistency and its cold-pressed oil is considered a healing oil. It has skin softening, nourishing, wound healing and regenerating properties. Protects and softens the skin, protects from UV rays. MANDULA OIL: It is a very good moisturizer, as it contains olein glyceride linoleic acid. Its antioxidants and vitamin E content increase the ability of the skin cells to retain moisture, making the skin fresh and youthful. It also has a mild antiseptic effect. Its high biotin content stimulates keratin production, which is essential for healthy skin. Almond oil strengthens the barrier layer, reducing water loss and increasing the water content of the deeper layers. It softens the skin, moisturises, is non-comedogenic and well tolerated by sensitive skin. Betaine: Two of its most important properties are moisturising (it does this at a higher rate than glycerine) and anti-irritant. Because of this latter property, it is also used to counteract/mitigate the effects of other irritant components. Glycerol: It is not foreign to the human body and therefore does not cause irritation or allergies. Glycerin is an excellent absorbent molecule as it helps the skin retain water by attracting and binding water molecules. In combination with urea, it significantly increases the skin's permeability in case of water deficiency and helps the skin to absorb additional moisturisers. Use: Suitable for all skin types (over 45 years) due to the combination of active ingredients. Can also be applied to the face and neck. Recommended for continuous application on cleansed skin, morning and evening. It can be used under make-up and is very easily absorbed without leaving a greasy feeling on the skin. It leaves the skin looking fresh and luminous, plumps, nourishes and hydrates the skin's texture, smoothing wrinkles. The result of use is a more hydrated, firmer, supple, youthful-looking skin. Squeeze a peanut-sized amount of cream, then apply evenly to the area of skin to be treated using your fingertips, gently massage in and wait for it to absorb. Then you can even apply make-up.
