Ingredients
Pro-Exo Protein System — a biotech complex that supports the skin's exosomes, collagen, and elastin to improve firmness, elasticity, and suppleness. Matrixyl — this firming polypeptide helps minimize loss of definition, for more supple-feeling skin. Proteoglycans — a rejuvenating active ingredient that promotes a plumping effect for plump, deeply hydrated, smoother-looking skin. Glutathione — this antioxidant is beloved in skincare for strengthening skin resilience while helping to even tone. Ashwagandha — a popular adaptogen that helps minimize the impact of UV radiation, environmental aggressors, and pollution. Pro-D Biotic — this prebiotic agent helps maintain a balanced microbiota and supports vitamin D levels, both essential for a healthy glow.
Efficacy
Clinical results after 4 weeks, test performed on 30 women aged 40-60 in perimenopause or menopause, applying the serum for 28 days, twice a day: up to -50% wrinkles, up to +34% elasticity, up to +39% firmness, 81% improved skin density.
Self-assessment of the same 30-woman cohort: after just one application, 93% felt skin was firmer and tighter; after 4 weeks, 83% saw a reduction in the look of wrinkles, 83% saw facial contours look more defined, and 80% saw their skin's glow brought back.
