Active ingredients

What really works in this formula

Active ingredients selected by Christina cosmetologists — each with documented effectiveness in professional skin care.

Broad-Spectrum SPF 30 Protection

Broad-Spectrum SPF 30 Protection Broad-spectrum UVA/UVB filters

Concentration Organic filters 5-15%, mineral 5-25%

Broad-spectrum SPF 30 protection is a combination of next-generation UV filters — both chemical (organic) and mineral — providing effective defense against UVA and UVB radiation. UVB filters protect against sunburn and erythema, while UVA penetrates deeper and is responsible for photoaging, hyperpigmentation, and loss of firmness. An SPF 30 factor blocks about 97% of UVB radiation and is recommended for daily care in urban conditions. Using SPF products is the foundation of preventing premature skin aging, melanoma, and pigmentation changes. It is an absolute must-have in the skincare routine for every skin type, regardless of the season.

UV Protection
Clinical studies

SPF 30 blocks 96.7% of UVB and, with modern filters (Tinosorb, Mexoryl), provides UVA-PF >10 protection (Colipa Method, ISO 24443).

Mechanism of action

Chemical filters absorb UV energy and convert it into heat. Mineral filters (ZnO, TiO2) reflect and scatter the radiation.

Magnolia Extract

Magnolia Extract Magnolia Extract

Concentration 0.1-1% (magnolol/honokiol)

Magnolia extract is obtained from the bark of the magnolia tree (Magnolia officinalis) — a plant used in traditional Chinese medicine for over 2,000 years. It contains unique lignans: magnolol and honokiol, which have strong anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antioxidant action. They inhibit the activity of key inflammatory mediators (NF-kB, COX-2), thereby effectively reducing redness, itching and symptoms of skin hypersensitivity. It has been clinically proven that the use of magnolia extract eases the symptoms of rosacea, atopic dermatitis and allergic reactions. An ingredient particularly recommended in soothing preparations for sensitive, reactive skin and in care after dermatological treatments.

Soothing
Clinical studies

1% honokiol: 78% inhibition of NF-kB, 41% reduction in erythematous redness over 4 weeks (Chen et al., 2017, n=24).

Mechanism of action

Magnolol and honokiol — neolignans — inhibit the key transcription factors NF-kB and AP-1, reducing the expression of TNF-α, IL-6 and COX-2. Antioxidants stronger than vitamin E.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)

Concentration 2-10% (optimally 5%)

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) is a versatile active ingredient, one of the best-studied in dermatology — with documented efficacy across many categories of skin concerns. It works in multiple directions: it strengthens the hydrolipid barrier by stimulating ceramide production, inhibits the transfer of melanin to keratinocytes (brightens hyperpigmentation), regulates sebum secretion, and reduces the appearance of pores. It has strong anti-inflammatory action, reducing redness, soothing rosacea, and calming skin reactivity. It suits all skin types and combines well with all other active ingredients (including AHA/BHA acids and retinol). The best results are observed at concentrations of 4-10% and with regular use for at least 8 weeks.

Strengthening
Clinical studies

5% niacinamide: a 35-68% reduction in hyperpigmentation, a 24% reduction in TEWL, and an 8% reduction in pores in 8 weeks (Hakozaki et al., 2002, n=120).

Mechanism of action

A precursor of NAD+/NADH/NADP+ in the mitochondrial energy cycle. It inhibits the transfer of melanosomes from melanocytes to keratinocytes.

Centella Asiatica

Centella Asiatica Centella Asiatica Extract

Concentration 0.1-2% (TECA — triterpenes)

Centella asiatica, also known as "tiger herb" or "gotu kola", is a plant used for thousands of years in Ayurvedic and traditional Asian medicine to heal wounds. It contains unique triterpenes — asiaticoside, madecassoside and asiatic acid — which stimulate collagen synthesis and strengthen microcirculation and blood vessel walls. It has a strong anti-inflammatory and soothing action, effectively reducing redness, supporting the regeneration of damaged skin and alleviating the symptoms of rosacea. It strengthens the protective barrier and counters the effects of stress on the skin, which is why it is a key ingredient in the care of sensitive, vascular skin and skin with couperose. Ideal for those with reactive skin seeking a natural yet effective solution.

REGENERATION
Clinical studies

A 32% reduction in erythema redness and a 40% acceleration of wound healing (Bylka et al., 2013, n=33). Efficacy in rosacea confirmed.

Mechanism of action

Madecassoside and asiaticoside stimulate type I and III collagen synthesis by activating Smad2/3 in the TGF-β pathway. They inhibit NF-κB, reducing inflammation.
