PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
COUPERINE is a mix of bioliquified rocket
salad leaves and prickly pear flowers able
to help very sensitive skin to be less prone
to develop couperose and to lessen it when
already present.
Rocket salad contains isothiocyanates able
to boost the synthesis of the tripeptide
glutathione, the only endogenous
antioxidant of our body. Glutathione
participates directly in the neutralization of
free radicals and maintains vitamins C and
E in their active forms. Glutathione plays
a prominent role in DNA protection, in the
detoxification processes and in contrasting
the inflammatory processes often related
to radical presence.
Prickly pear flowers have been used in
traditional medicine and in recent years
the antioxidants and polysaccharides
contained in it have been proven to be
able to protect both large and small blood
vessels from oxidative damage. They
can also mitigate micro-vessel damage
and maintain micro-capillary integrity by
stabilizing capillary walls.
The combination of endogenous and
exogenous antioxidants and protective
molecules, as well as the soothing
and conditioning effects of the mix of
molecules contained in COUPERINE allow
to effectively reduce couperose from the
first week of application.
