M.E is a comprehensive skincare product, embodying M’Lalin's Green Ageing philosophy, characterized by its comprehensive impact, compatibility with the skin and its microbiome, and the absence of side effects through biotechnological, naturally sourced ingredients.
M.E simultaneously impacts and improves skin moisture, evenness, elasticity, smoothness, and radiance. Additionally, it addresses signs of aging within various aging groups:
- Skin aging: evens skin tone; preserves and boosts collagen, elastin production; accelerates cell renewal.
- Volume aging: maintains fat content, ensures facial contours, and shape.
- Muscle aging: relaxes facial muscles, aiding emotional expression, visibly reducing both dynamic and static wrinkles.
By addressing all three aging signs (often neglecting volume and muscle groups), M.E not only enhances skin brightness and youthfulness but also imparts an overall facial charisma, radiance, through gentle, skin-friendly, and sustainable impacts.
These effects of M.E stem from the combination of numerous valuable and modern research, supporting and enhancing each other's efficacy, such as:
- Uttwiler Spätlauber (Malus domestica) apple stem cell extract encapsulated in liposomes: a revolutionary anti-aging compound based on advanced plant cell culture technology. It's rich in epigenetic factors and metabolites, safeguarding skin stem cells from negative influences and optimizing the production of epidermal cells. It's a prominent component of Mibelle Biochemistry (Switzerland), certified by ECOCert COSMOS, NATRUE, and awarded the BSB European Innovation Prize.
- Sytenol A – Bakuchiol is a skincare ingredient found in the leaves and seeds of Psoralea corylifolia, originating from India. It's the most notable natural alternative to retinol without any adverse effects like retinol. Completely stable in light, it can be used during the day. This active ingredient regulates metabolic genes and retinoid binding, significantly improving genes/proteins in the dermo-epidermal junction, stimulating the production of collagen I, III, IV, providing moisturizing abilities by boosting hyaluronic acid synthesis, aquaporin 3. Clinically proven to reduce various signs of aging, diminish roughness, wrinkles, improve skin tone, elasticity, firmness, radiance, brightness, and reduce acne. Sytenol A from Sytheon (USA) is the world's first research base to deliver pure, sustainably cultivated, and harvested Bakuchiol.
- Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 is one of the most outstanding peptides in skincare. This active ingredient reduces the formation of expression wrinkles, focusing on relaxing muscles after facial expressions. When we express emotions, facial muscles move and contract. However, over time, as aging progresses, these muscles don't relax but remain in a contracted state, leading to the formation of wrinkles. Hence, this ingredient aids in relaxing those muscles, preventing wrinkle formation. Additionally, it reduces roughness, brightens the skin, and improves firmness and elasticity.
- Acetyl Tetrapeptide-40 is an ingredient focused on reducing redness on the face. It's an improved tetrapeptide designed to reduce the appearance of redness and telangiectasia (dilated blood vessels) caused by excessive inflammatory reactions. Its mechanism involves reducing the excessive release of certain cytokines and chemokines that cause inflammation, including IL-6, IL-8 caused by LL-37.
- Palmitoyl Dipeptide-5 Diaminobutyloyl Hydroxythreonine & Palmitoyl Dipeptide-6 Diaminohydroxybutyrate - This combination involves two peptides interacting with the related protein structure of the dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ). DEJ provides structural and functional integrity to our skin, but this function begins to decline around the age of 30. External influences like UV rays accelerate this decline, leading to reduced skin firmness and elasticity. These two components significantly stimulate Laminin V, Collagen types IV, VII, and XVII, and Integrin simultaneously. With this broad activity, the entire structure of DEJ undergoes improvement.
- GABA, or γ-Aminobutyric Acid - produced by lactobacillus fermentation, ECOCERT certified. This is an anti-aging component with multiple benefits: reducing wrinkles, smoothing the skin (by relaxing muscles), repairing damaged skin (improving epidermal barrier function by promoting epidermal cell proliferation and synthesizing involucrin, glutathione), boosting the synthesis of hyaluronic acid and collagen (in the dermal layer, doubling HA secretion from skin fibroblasts).
- Resveratrol: derived from Japanese knotweed, a potent antioxidant component with a 95% effectiveness in inhibiting lipid peroxidation compared to Vitamin C at 37% or Vitamin E at 65%. Resveratrol effectively combats UV-induced aging processes. It can penetrate the stratum corneum to reach the dermal and epidermal layers, demonstrated to preserve skin collagen, effectively enhancing glycosaminoglycans and reinforcing tissue hydration. It also has the ability to stimulate skin cell renewal and increase skin thickness.
- South American Golden Berry (Physalis angulata) Extract has soothing properties and counters aging issues caused by heat. This active agent stimulates the skin's natural defense system against oxidation, boosts extracellular matrix production, and restores the skin's protective barrier, while controlling temperature and skin circulation when the skin is heat-damaged. This mechanism shields the skin from both visible light and infrared rays, beyond UV protection methods. Not only protective, this component is effective in aiding recovery after severe damage, such as prolonged high-dose corticosteroid exposure.
Additionally, there's a collaboration of compounds such as Stevia rebaudiana leaf extract, which serves as a Retinoid alternative without adverse effects; Lactobacillus-fermented Lemon Peel Extract that aids in antioxidation; Artichoke leaf extract (Cynara scolymus) combined with Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate in M.O.M activates AhR receptors in the keratinocyte cells, promoting antioxidative activities and the SIRT1 gene (a member of the sirtuin protein family involved in cellular reactions to inflammatory, metabolic, and oxidative stimuli). Mung bean extract (Phaseolus radiatus) and oat (Avena sativa) extract, besides soothing the skin, also combat aging and boost fibroblast proliferation; German Chamomile essential oil (Matricaria recutita) with high levels of chamazulene and azulene - anti-inflammatory compounds unique to chamomile oil, presenting a deep blue color, along with immune-boosting abilities.
M.E also utilizes a natural foundation such as fermented Olive oil, sprouted Rice Bran oil, Tamanu oil, and Shea butter rich in fatty acids like linoleic, oleic, palmitic, stearic, along with phenolic compounds, bioflavonoids, calophylloids, inophylloids, fostering skin hydration, regeneration, and antioxidation.
