What distinguishes the lactoferrin regulating serum?

• soothes irritations of acne-prone skin that is red and dry
• balances the work of sebaceous glands and reduces the secretion of excess sebum
• moisturizes and supports the microbiota of acne-prone skin thanks to Lactobacillus ferment, a prebiotic rich in lactic acid bacteria
• contains a gallic acid derivative to correct the skin tone and reduce the appearance of pores

Know the ingredients in your serum:1. Saw palmetto fruit extract is a well-known and effective inhibitor of 5-alpha-reductase, thanks to which it can reduce the local conversion of testosterone to DHT, and thus also reduce the severity of skin lesions. The results of the study indicate that in the skin of people with acne there is a greater activity of 5-alpha-reductase type one, which is involved in the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) with a much higher androgen power than testosterone. Androgens stimulate the activity of sebaceous glands and intensify the process of keratinisation of the epidermis. Factors increase the risk of skin lesions.2. Niacinamide – a tyrosinase inhibitor, reduces the skin synthesis of melanin (skin pigment), thanks to which it corrects the skin tone and helps to reduce discolouration. It accelerates the process of reducing skin lesions and protects the skin against free radicals. It has a multidirectional effect on the condition of the skin. By stimulating collagen synthesis, it improves skin structure, reduces transepidermal water loss (TEWL), has anti-inflammatory properties and brightens discolouration. 3. 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid – tyrosinase inhibitor, reduces the skin synthesis of melanin (skin pigment). An antioxidant, corrects the skin tone and helps reduce hyperpigmentation.4. Shikimic acid – a hydroxy acid obtained from the star anise Illicium verum. It has a carboxyl group, thanks to which it can bind water in the epidermis, which has an impact on the reduction of transepidermal water loss. It improves skin hydration and makes it soft and elastic. It has a mild keratolytic effect. It does not cause redness and dryness of the skin. It is an antioxidant – it neutralizes and stabilizes free radicals, preventing uncontrolled reactions between free radicals and skin biomolecules. Thanks to its antimicrobial and exfoliating properties, shikimic acid is perfect for acne-prone skin. It supports excessive keratinisation of the epidermis, unblocks the sebaceous glands, and reduces the multiplication of microorganisms.

5. Gallic acid diglucosyl – a derivative of gallic acid, belonging to the group of phenolic acids, with increased stability and bioavailability. Its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antifungal properties have been confirmed. The effects of gallic acid diglucosyl that can be observed on the skin are the reduction of discolouration, unification of skin tone, reduction of erythema and reduction of the visibility of pores.6. Hyaluronic acid – intensely moisturizes and reduces water loss through the epidermis. It increases skin hydration, supports its regeneration, and has an anti-aging effect. Depending on the molecular weight, HA has different properties: smaller molecules penetrate the epidermal barrier more easily, providing hydration in the upper layers of the epidermis, high molecular weight hyaluronic acid does not penetrate the epidermis, but by binding water molecules from the environment, it forms a moist compress on its surface, which reduces the feeling of tightness and dryness of the skin.7. Pear Juice Ferment Filtrate – The addition of Lactobacillus (Lactobacillus/Pear Juice Ferment Filtrate) supports the skin’s microbiota and helps to restore its balance, which has a positive effect on the condition of problematic skin. People with problematic skin often struggle with dysbiosis (an imbalance in the skin microbiota). The predominance of certain (IA1) strains of C. acnes bacteria with greater pathogenicity makes these people more prone to acne lesions. 8. Lactoferrin – a protein naturally produced by our body, essential in the processes of building immunity. It is present in many body fluids and gland secretions, such as: milk, saliva, tears, secretions of the nasal glands. It stimulates the process of keratinocyte differentiation, wound healing, and skin lesions. It acts as a protein that has the ability to bind to iron ions, which makes it easier to absorb by the body.
