Platform Exposome: studying the collection of factors to which an individual is exposed throughout their life

• Cell’intact™: Buckwheat extract that protects skin from oxidative stress assaults induced by pollution through skin microbiota enhancement.
• Sens’flower™: Saffron flower extract that functions to correct pollution-induced discomfort via the reinforcement of the skin barrier, reduction of inflammation and modulation of neurosensory aspects.
• Osmo’city™: Marshmallow extract that acts as a physical shield thanks to its high content in high molecular weight sugars. Prevents and corrects pollutant particle adhesion to the skin.

Platform Longevity: focus on blue zones, regions recognized by scientists for the high proportion of healthy centenarians

• Evolu’age™: Inspired by Asian longevity secrets, this getto extract functions to reinforce skin structure connections and enhance the overall appearance of the skin. Skin texture is smoothed resulting in a healthy rosy glow.

Platform Glyco-Intelligence: understand how mega-sugars work and characterize their interactions with the skin

• Glycuron™ 2.78: An exopolysaccharide with very special physicochemical properties. This 4million Da sugar polymer, rich in uronic acid is liquid at 0.5% in water and shows very strong biological properties of hydration and brightness enhancement, together with generating sensory feeling that is able to impact image self-perception and projected alloperception.
