Functional moisturization via endogenous strengthening of epidermal homeostasis

An alteration of the skin barrier function increases trans-epidermal water loss and leads to dry and flaky skin, inflammation and injuries.
To regulate the skin’s own function of moisturization, Laboratoires Sérobiologiques has developed AQU'ACTIV™.

• Optimal structuring and stabilization of the stratum corneum:
- regulation of keratinocytes differentiation,
- reinforcement of cellular cohesion,
- balancing of epidermal lipids via both neosynthesis and reduced degradation.

• Clinically proven moisturization and enhancement of skin elasticity.

 Skin hydration from the inside

Composed of a calcium compound and a ceramidase inhibitor, this functional moisturizer acts in a 3D manner to
restructure the stratum corneum and the epidermis from the inside:
1. Enhancement of keratinocytes differentiation to ensure an optimal condition of the epidermis and the stratum corneum.
2. Increase of tight junction proteins, which participate in zipper-like cell-cell cohesion.
3. Maintaining an optimal skin lipid balance by increasing the synthesis of new lipids and by inhibiting ceramide degradation.

With AQU'ACTIV™., the functions of the stratum corneum and the optimal differentiation of the epidermis are preserved, resulting in an improvement of skin moisturization and elasticity.

The triple action of the preservative free AQU'ACTIV™. offers a new cosmeceutical solution to restructure and strengthen dry and fragile skin.
