Description
The innovative idea of "Relieve Stress Before Reducing Wrinkles" focuses on alleviating the pressure on the underlying collagen that results from dryness and hardening of the stratum corneum. Then, repair the cushion collagen in the dermis (including Type I, III, and V collagen) to restore the fullness of collagen and rebound collagen pressure, effectively combating 11 types of wrinkles. This is the only high-purity retinol ingredient in Japan approved by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare# for effective wrinkle reduction. Within 8 hours, it stimulates natural hyaluronic acid production, instantly softening the skin and boosting hydration in the stratum corneum, thereby reducing ongoing pressure on the underlying collagen. Within 48 hours1, it activates Type III and Type V collagen, enhancing collagen density in the dermis and smoothing wrinkles from the stratum corneum. Powered by the COLLAGENERATOR™ Collagen Regeneration Complex, this exclusive formula nurtures strong collagen and effectively boosts Type I, Type III, and Type V Collagen found in the "AirBuffer Collagen Layer," while degrading and clearing away old, damaged collagen. The dual-action ingredients exponentially enhance anti-wrinkle power, rebounding collagen pressure and penetrating from the stratum corneum to the dermis to reduce wrinkles. Infused with En-ZY Lock Complex to protect the Collagen Stress-Relief Layer, it comprehensively protects the cushion collagen in the "collagen stress relief layer" (including Type I, III, and V collagen), inhibiting collagen breakdown and helps prevent wrinkle formation.
