This loss of volume, together with wrinkles and a loss of radiance and elasticity, causes facial skin to start looking older. Sometimes difficult to describe, a loss of volume is very common and alters the structure and shape of the whole face. It can also sometimes be referred as saggy skin, loss of contours or ‘looking drawn‘, and is often associated with a negative look to the face.
With a perfect combination of microalgae active components and a powerful polysaccharide, NaturFirm makes possible to combine short and long term efficacy with real benefits, both being looked for by consumers in tightening products

Technical Details & Test Data
- Technical Details
Clinical evaluation of the anti-wrinkle efficacy of a cosmetic product on 20 volunteers (Instant lifting effect with profilometric Analysis - DermaTop Blue equipment)
A) Measurement of skin roughness (mean depth of roughness)
Variation (mean) in deep wrinkles
B) Measurement of skin roughness (Arithmetical mean of roughness)
Variation (mean) in overall wrinkle appearance
C) Reactive volunteers
100% of volunteers showed a statistical significant reduction in both profilometric parameters (mean depth and arithmetical mean) related to skin roughness.
