NATURAL GEL INSTEAD OF PRESERVATIVES
The world is full of cosmetic products. However, products intended for beauty often harm the environment or skin due to the emulsifying agents, synthetic fragrances, and preservatives they contain. Even natural cosmetics, known for being free of added fragrances or dyes, are not completely free of plant oils or emulsifiers. The research center of the Japanese professional cosmetics brand La Sincere is introducing suitable ingredients for a range of cosmetics based on natural components. A revolutionary discovery was the natural gel, which allows for the production of “friendly cosmetics” without emulsifiers, fragrances, or dyes.
A DISTINCTIVE FEATURE – COSMETICS ON A GEL BASE
The use of gel as a base for products has become one of the key factors in the brand’s success. Japanese Professor Ryuko Higuchi, a leading specialist in Japan in the application of nano- and biotechnologies in cosmetology, believes that the use of gel is one of the main factors in La Sincere’s success in the cosmetic market. Gels, by their physical form, are similar to the intercellular space of the skin and are ideal conductors of biologically active substances. If you physically imagine the intercellular space of the stratum corneum, it is a gel-like form with varying permeability. Gels retain a significant amount of lipophilic systems without adding emulsifiers. They help normalize water evaporation processes, do not interfere with oxygen penetration, and their use is completely devoid of a comedogenic effect.
Marine gel — is extracted from brown and green seaweeds. The gel contains a large amount of amino acids, nucleic acids, and minerals.
Animal gel – is mainly collagen, hyaluronic acid, and surface lipids. They exist in animal tissue. The gel intensively moisturizes, actively supports tissue elasticity, firmness, and facial contours. Today, it is the most effective gel against wrinkles and age-related changes.
Plant gel with a high content of enzymes and amino acids is extracted from aloe, quince, pullulan algae, and scutellaria root.
Mineral gel is extracted from silt and soil using various ventilation methods. Maximum therapeutic effect is achieved thanks to unique formulas that allow the compositions of cosmetic products to be as close as possible in their characteristics to the composition of human skin.
SIGNIFICANT NANO-DIMENSIONS
The new era of nano-measurements ensured a high penetrating ability of cosmetic products, allowing the delivery of minute biologically active substances into the deep layers of the skin in strictly defined quantities and into strictly defined skin layers. Modern nano-preparations serve not only for prevention but also for eliminating the root causes of problems through gentle correction of processes in the early stages of treating age-related changes. The main objectives for La Sincere in developing formulations were to ensure maximum penetration of biologically active substances, strictly selected for each problem, of pharmaceutical and natural components, and to ensure the strictest control over their quality. Squalane oil from olives, placenta extract, ultra-low molecular weight ionized platinum, gold and silver, peptide complex, and hyaluronic acid – this is a combination of active components that provide an instant rejuvenating effect and have a prolonged action, triggering natural metabolism.
WHY DO WE LIKE LA SINCERE?
Firstly, it has its own scientific-technical laboratory, a high-tech production base, and a training center for specialists, which allows for the rapid testing and implementation of innovative developments into production. This is why La Sincere is among the top three cosmeceutical manufacturers in Japan. Out of 15,000 beauty salons in Japan, 3,000 work with La Sincere cosmetics.
Secondly, the company’s products are certified by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of Japan as therapeutic cosmetics (cosmeceuticals). Their quality is confirmed by authorized certification bodies, unlike a large number of brands produced in Japan but not certified by the proper authorities.
Thirdly, La Sincere cosmetics contain over 70 targeted active ingredients, including more than 50 plant extracts. Furthermore, all La Sincere Japanese cosmetic preparations are designed for delicate, sensitive skin that poorly tolerates various active influences, and therefore do not contain abrasive substances. The developed preparations gently affect the skin, without causing trauma or allergic reactions, and contain natural moisturizing components. Dermatologists can help you learn more about all the brand’s procedures and products and decide which one is suitable for you. Since individual intolerance to components is possible even with hypoallergenic products, a specialist consultation is necessary.
