Actique™ Hyal 1% is a premade 1% solution of fermentation-derived sodium hyaluronate powder and water for your formulating needs. Using Actique™ Hyal 1% is a faster way to add sodium hyaluronate to your formulation without waiting for the gelling powder to completely hydrate.

Acetyl Glucosamine has been shown to stimulate production of Hyaluronic Acid in skin, improving skin hydration and reducing appearance of wrinkles. It is also effective in anti-hyperpigmentation treatments.

Actique™ Hyal Mini is a fermentation-derived low molecular weight sodium hyaluronate powder. As HA is mostly used in anti-aging skin care formulations, low molecular weight HA has been shown to increase the moisture level of damaged skin and accelerate damage repair. Actique™ Hyal Mini is an oligosaccharide of HA with excellent skin absorption, hydration and anti-wrinkle benefits. With a MW <10,000 Da., Actique™ Hyal Mini penetrates into the stratum corneum, keeping water inside to sustain the hydration effect for 3 days or longer after application. Actique™ Hyal Mini is also known to provide a “double hydration” effect from the outside in when used with high MW sodium hyaluronate powder.

Actique™ Pearl is a peptide derived from conchiolin protein (“Pearl Protein”) and extracted through enzymolysis. The peptide is then separated using advanced bio-engineering technology. This peptide has outstanding anti-melanogenesis properties. When skin is irradiated by ultra violet rays (UVB), the keratin cells release endothelin. The signal from the endothelin is then accepted by the membrane receptor of the melanocyte. This triggers the activity of tyrosinase and causes rapid melanin production. Since Actique™ Pearl is a very powerful anti-endothelin antagonist, it can help regulate the signals sent to the melanocyte receptors and inhibit melanin production.

Actique™ Hyal 1M is a fermentation-derived mid-range molecular weight sodium hyaluronate powder. Actique™ Hyal 1M is high-water binding, but with less occlusive properties than high molecular weight sodium hyaluronate powder. Therefore, Actique™ Hyal 1M can provide deep hydration and works well as a skin-conditioning agent with natural viscosity increasing properties.

Actique™ Hyal Max is a fermentation-derived high molecular weight sodium hyaluronate powder. When added into solution, Actique™ Hyal Max will form a hydrated viscoelastic film on the surface of the skin, keeping it moisturized to prevent collagen from cracking and drying out. Actique™ Hyal Max can also be used as a natural viscosity increasing agent with skin conditioning benefits.

Actique™ Shikon is a natural anti-inflammatory derived from the Chinese medicinal herb, Arnebia euchroma (Royle) Johnst. Traditionally, this herb is used in pharmaceuticals for detoxification, blood circulation, and wound healing. The effective chemical portion is mainly divided into two parts, an oil-soluble naphthoquinone pigment with strong anti-inflammatory ingredients, such as Shikon and acetylshikonin, and a water-soluble portion containing polysaccharides and phenolic acids. Actique™ Shikon is the isolated oil-soluble naphthoquinone portion of Arnebia euchroma (Royle) Johnst used for its natural and beautiful purplish-red wine color with the ability to decrease inflammation, deliver acne and oil control and soothe the skin.

Actique™ PGA (Sodium Polyglutamate) is a natural, fermentation derived active with exceptional skin benefits. This easy-to-use powder adds effective, instant hydration as well as long lasting hydration by preventing skin trans-epidermal water loss. Actique™ PGA enhances and extends critical hyaluronic acid functionalities, resulting in skin retaining youth and elasticity. This product increases the skin’s production of Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMFs) and decreases TEWL. Actique™ PGA possesses excellent sensory properties and increases skin smoothness, leaving a silk skin feel. This product can also help maintain bleached hair strength and hydration by forming a protective layer on the hair strand. Actique™ PGA is biodegreadable & non-toxic.

Actique™ LIC 90 is a naturally derived powder extracted fromthe root of Glycyrrhiza Globra Linne via a unique and advanced extraction process that yields a high content of pure Glabridin (>90% HPLC). With its extremely low color value, Actique™ LIC 90 serves as a perfect replacement for Glabridin products with high color values.

Actique™ LIC is a naturally derived powder extracted fromthe roots of Glycyrrhiza Globra Linne via ultra-filtration, chromatography, and recrystallization.It acts as a quick, effective, and powerful skin brightening agent. This product contains at least 40%pure Glabridin. Glabridin, naturally found in licorice root extract, has been shown to have anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and skin brightening properties.

Actique™ MAP is a water-soluble, stable, high purity vitamin C derivative. By inhibiting tyrosinase activity. Actique™ MAP is capable of melanin reduction. This makes it highly effective in lightening age spots and whitening skin. Actique™ MAP, unlike ascorbyl palmitate, is very compatible with sensitive skin. It boosts skin collagen synthesis at lower concentrations without irritation.
