OLEOPHEN

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The blend of vegetable oils used for
OLEOPHEN (olive, sunflower seed,
pumpkin seed and sea buckthorn oils)
has been carefully selected on the basis
of fatty acid composition. The Enzymatic
Activation process of the oils allows
the release of both typical sebum fatty
acids such as palmitic, stearic, oleic and
palmitoleic (an omega-7 analogue of
sapienic acid), and essential fatty acids
(linoleic and alpha linolenic) for complete
nourishment of the hydrolipidic film.

Other important elements such as sterols,
tocopherols, tocotrienols, carotenoids and
phenols complete the effectiveness of
the product by contributing to the defense
of the skin from radical species and
counteracting inflammation.

OLEOPHEN has shown excellent
performances as a hydrating and anti-
aging active ingredient and was found
to be able to soothe inflamed skin and
reconstitute the hydrolipidic film thanks to
its restorative effect.

OLEOPHEN is able to strengthen hair and
improve its shine and combability.
