AQUABLEND

Water SOURCE

WATER IS the prerequisite FOR LIFE

And we could end here. But perhaps, speaking of skin, it is worth clarifying some concepts.

The skin is in constant exchange with water: structured to not let it in – let’s dispel the myth of the skin “drinking” – it actually lets it out through the TEWL just enough to keep our body healthy. At the same time, it is activated to remain hydrated, soft and velvety; this is possible thanks to the functionality of the horny layer (stratum corneum) which guarantees the so-called NMF (Natural Moisturizing Factor) and the production of sebum, both at the basis of the balance of the hydrolipidic mantle.

Skin – the wonderful “fabric” that covers us – is actually the most “technical” that exists.

However, it requires care and attention like all fabrics, starting from cleansing to a real daily routine to safeguard its beauty.

TWO STEPS: CLEANSING AND CARE

To be carried out with ritual, rigor and awareness of the facts.

Cleansing prepares the skin to receive the benefits of functional products, creating the perfect base, the untouched canvas on which to outline the beauty work of art. In the East they call it kimé, we call it skin texture. And that is the real strength.
The treatment focuses on hydration in order to prevent skin aging, improve firmness, redefine the shape of your face, smooth out features, promote cellular functions, give brightness, embellish the skin.
Beauty Spa makes it a working philosophy with its exclusive Aquablend: a combination of fully hydrating HP active ingredients.

AQUABLEND

Moisturizing concentrate

Aquablend is an innovative pool containing a combination of botanically derived active ingredients selected for their hydrating and anti-inflammatory properties. The effectiveness lies in their integration and synergy, in the way they interact with the aim of guaranteeing perfect hydration to the skin. The base of Aquablend consists of a series of very strong natural moisturizers:

  1. Natural sugars: of plant origin, including Trehalose, Fructose and Maltose.
    In particular, Trehalose is obtained from an extremophile botanical species that inhabits the most desert areas of the planet and which survives despite levels of aridity that are in all respects incompatible with life. It integrates water into tissues and reduces dehydration-induced damage.
  2. Hyaluronic Acid: known for its highly moisturizing properties, it is a key component of the skin, which gives the skin strength and firmness, also improving its ability to repair from damage.
  3. Natural Moisturizing Factors: including urea, pyrrolidon carboxylic acid, sodium lactate, allantoin and glycerin, with humectant and physio-hydrating action. They are synthesized by the horny layer and boost cell proliferation with a long-lasting hydrating effect.

Base Blend MECHANISM AND ACTIVITY

Base Blend works on two levels:

  1. immediately, ensuring the right amount of hydration and emollience;
  2. in the long term, helping to improve the skin’s ability to manage water.

Considering that the benefits of the Base Blend last for many hours, in case of daily and repeated application it is possible to talk about real non-stop hydration.
In particular, the small hygroscopic molecules of the Base Blend penetrate the skin and rebalance the NMF mix, while specific film-forming polymers capture water and maintain the correct level of hydration, reducing water loss through evaporation and consequently skin dryness. This translates into perfect hydration and effective prevention of aging.

The activity of Base Blend, confirmed by clinical research studies

Short term
Measurement of skin hydration level.
20 subjects with normal skin, 1 application per day on the forearm, measurements after 1, 2 and 4 hours

Long term
Measurement of skin hydration level.
10 subjects with dry skin, 1 application per day on the forearm, measurements after 4, 24 and 48 hours.

VITAMINS AND AVENANTHRAMIDES

A high-fidelity pool for skin health

  1. Vitamin E or Tocopherol: it counteracts the harmful action of free radicals, helping to prevent skin aging and giving the skin a radiant, luminous, visibly healthy appearance.
  2. Vitamin B5 or Pantothenic Acid: it has undeniable hydrating properties that promote the integration of NMF while keeping the skin soft and elastic. It also has a hydrating, regenerating action, making the skin tissue more compact and firmer.
  3. Vitamin PP or Niacinamide: it contributes to significantly improving the skin barrier by promoting the increase in ceramides and barrier proteins, i.e. keratin and filaggrin. Also important is the improving action that Vitamin PP performs on the texture of the skin, mainly due to the reduction of sebum and the minimization of dilated pores.
  4. Avenanthramides: they are powerful polyphenols derived from Oats, a plant long known for its anti-inflammatory, calming properties. These active fractions have shown effectiveness in terms of attenuating redness, reducing skin inflammation and decreasing histamine release. And to top it off, an interesting antioxidant action, essential for preventing skin aging.”
