Features & Benefits
- Product Background
Mucilage-rich hibiscus flowers—from which Repulpami ER is derived—are known for their moisturizing and softening properties. They hydrate dry, irritated skin.
Toning and refreshing, they are ideal in body and foot massage creams.
Hibiscus flowers are also recommended for their antioxidant and remineralizing properties, for use in:
- Care for mature and stressed skin
- Shampoos for damaged and fragile hair
- Hand creams
- After-sun cosmetics
Their organic acid content provides exfoliating and purifying properties commonly found in products used to revitalize tired skin.
- Product Benefits
The all-in-one anti-aging active ingredient found in both the hibiscus and baobab extracts turns Repulpami ER into a multi-action active ingredient with anti-wrinkle, plumping and firming properties ideal for mature skin.
- Plumping: Repulpami ER is plumping. Lipolysis reduction and adipogenesis stimulation restore the oval of the face and its plumped up appearance.
- Firming: Claudine-1 protein stimulation reinforces the development of tight junctions to promote tightened, firm skin. Activating the expression of genes for forming the skin barrier and the corneal envelopes, results in better cohesion and firmness of the epidermis.
- Anti-wrinkle: Repulpami ER provides a anti-wrinkle appearance for a natural, safe and non-invasive lifting effect. Muscle contractions are inhibited as tissue tightens.
- Protector: Repulpami ER-based care products reinforce the skin’s barrier function, protecting it from harsh external conditions.
