What it contains and why:

Hyaluronic Acid
It is a polysaccharide that is naturally found in our skin and contributes to its hydration, endurance, healing and regeneration.
What hyaluronic acid do we use:
Animal free, synthetic free: The hyaluronic acid on the market is usually synthetic while in the past and hopefully not anymore it came from poultry. We choose to use hyaluronic acid which is derived from enzymes involved in bacterial fermentation, ie it is of natural origin.
We use a combination of low and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid. The low molecular weight has the ability to penetrate the lower layers of the skin and moisturize it from the inside while the high molecule remains in the upper layers and creates an outer protective film that shields moisture.
What properties does it have:
Strong hydration: It has the ability to hold 600 times its weight in water. It thus increases the moisture levels of the skin and at the same time reduces its loss.
Tissue regeneration: Activates cell renewal, has anti-inflammatory action and even accelerates wound healing.
Anti-wrinkle action: Restores the elasticity of the skin & smoothes it, thus reducing the appearance of wrinkles & fine lines of expression. At the same time it helps in the better connection of collagen and elastin fibers.

Rose water
It comes from the distillation of the flowers of the Damascus rose and is used in anti-aging products to prevent or fight wrinkles.
What rose water do we use
It comes from double distillation of Greek fresh roses (Rosa Damascena) which are cultivated in Northern Greece in a completely natural way and are collected one by one, with the first light of day, just before opening so that the petals do not lose their wonderful aroma and their properties.
What properties does it have:
It has soothing and whitening properties and helps significantly in improving dark circles and puffiness under the eyes.
It fights the bacteria that live on the skin, relieves irritations and at the same time moisturizes and soothes the skin.

Panthenol
It is mainly used in anti-aging products. It is also called provitamin B5 because it is converted to vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) when it comes in contact with the skin.
What properties does it have:
It is a key component of Coenzyme A, which plays a key role in the repair mechanisms of cells and tissues while helping the growth of new skin cells.
Smoothes and softens the skin shielding moisture, preventing dehydration and drying.
It helps maintain skin elasticity.
It acts together with DMAE (Dimethyl aminoethanol) in the production of acetylcholine which stimulates and tightens the skin.
It has anti-inflammatory action that makes it suitable for irritated skin.
How we use it:
In order to have all the above properties, its presence is necessary at sufficient levels in each of our cosmetic recipes. It is common to use it in very small amounts simply so that it can be labeled as an ingredient, without ultimately giving the final product the desired effect.

Organic Vitamin E.
Vitamin E is a classic antioxidant that delays the signs of aging and stimulates circulation in the skin.
It prevents the loss of moisture from the skin and is thus ideal for dry skin. At the same time it deeply cleanses the pores and helps regulate the sebum that is necessary for even the most oily skin.
Protects the skin from environmental pollution, pollutants, extreme weather conditions and sunlight.
It is ideal for repairing damaged skin tissues and blemishes and soothes sunburn.
What vitamin E do we use:
Vitamin E is a combination of tocopherols (alpha, beta, gamma, delta) with alpha tocopherol being the most important.
Alpha can also be made synthetically and this form is usually used for economic reasons.
We choose to use only its natural form not only because of its naturalness but also because of its greater efficiency. It comes from organic non-genetically modified soybean oil and is naturally concentrated.

Organic essential oils

Geranium
Oxygenates and tones the skin of the face giving it a youthful and fresh texture.
It regulates the secretion of sebum so it is ideal for both dry and oily skin.
It cleanses the lymph, thus reducing swelling and speeding up the wound healing process.

  Citrus fruits (Tangerine, Grapefruit, Orange)
  Tangerine, a valuable source of antioxidants, has been shown to inactivate free radicals   and reduce the external signs of aging.
  Orange rejuvenates dull skin and helps produce collagen.
  Grapefruit tones the skin and keeps it clean. It also has an astringent action and   tightens large or open pores of the skin.
