Beautiful skin

For beautiful, radiant skin brimming with youthful vitality.

Ideals of beauty change, but one standard always remains: a woman’s skin should radiate freshness, vitality and a positive attitude, in the widest sense of the term.

And then, of course, there's the ageing process – an unavoidable fact of life that can't be prevented, but can be slowed down, minimised and concealed.

UV-B-filters protects from the short wave UV rays, which cause sunburn. Vitamin A is t h e beauty vitamin for challenged skin. This epithelia-protecting vitamin stimulates the generation of skin cells and collagen, regulates the keratinisation process and improves the appearance and elasticity of the skin. Vitamin C acts as a radical trap. These free and aggressive oxygen molecules are particularly likely to be formed when exposed to UV radiation, adverse environmental influences or stress. Vitamin C combats such adverse effects by trapping these radicals. The skin is thus better protected, cell activity is stimulated and the regeneration of collagen fibres is promoted. It also combats hyperpigmentation and age spots, lightening the skin. Vitamin E gives active skin protection. Used regularly, it improves the texture of the skin and the skin becomes noticeably smoother. Vitamin E has been shown to increase the moisture content of the skin. Mature skin is intensely nurtured and a protective depot is built up for use the following day. Vitamin F. This essential vitamin (linoleic acid) is one of the skin’s basic building blocks, strengthening the barrier function and thus the resistance capacity of the skin. This vitamin also promotes an even complexion and suppresses irregular pigmentation. Wheat bran extract. Thanks to its content of unsaturated essential fatty acids, which are optimally biologically effective, wheat bran extract regulates the condition of dry skin, improving its resistance capacity. Wheat germ oil is a natural vitamin bearer with a very high salary in vitamin E, to essential fatty acids, provitamin A, Lecithin and different Phytosterines.
