The third formula in the Skin Factor range aims to improve skin hydration and elasticity. Next to essential vitamins and minerals, the formulation contains hydrolysed hyaluronic acid and precursors to enhance collagen synthesis.
Key vitamins & nutrients
Skin Factor 3 is a well-balanced multi-ingredient formula with:
- Vitamins A, C & E help maintain normal healthy skin
- Vitamin C is important for collagen synthesis
- Roughly half of the hyaluronic acid in your body is present in your skin, where it binds to water to help retain moisture. However, the natural aging process and exposure to things like ultraviolet radiation from the sun, tobacco smoke and pollution can decrease its amounts in the skin
- Centella Asiatica, commonly known as centella, Asiatic pennywort or Gotu kola is a plant native to Southeast Asia, India and the USA and is popular in traditional and ayurvedic medicine. Centella Asiatica stimulates the development of skin fibroblasts, the producers of collagen
- Lysine and proline are the main components / precursors of collagen
Skin Factor 3 is the third and last step to skin beauty and works well in combination with other products within the Skin Factor range.
