What is it?

Syringa Vulgaris Extract — a plant extract containing a unique phenylethanoid glycoside (found in lilac stem cell culture), which demonstrates in studies the ability to stimulate the rate of epidermal cell renewal, similarly (though through a different mechanism) to the action of some retinoids. Mechanism: this unique component theoretically accelerates the natural desquamation (exfoliation) cycle of dead cells in the stratum corneum and stimulates the proliferation of new cells, contributing to improved skin texture and radiance without the typical irritation associated with retinoids.

Anti-aging serums focusing on cell renewal, retinoid-alternative formulas for sensitive skin, premium cosmetics based on plant stem cell cultures.
