Science

Mare Milk exerts its effects through several mechanisms: it contains Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) which facilitates mild exfoliation, stimulates cell turnover, and enhances skin hydration, thereby contributing to wrinkle reduction. Its antioxidant capacity actively combats free radicals, mitigating premature skin aging. A rich profile of vitamins (C, A, K, B1, B6, B12) and minerals (magnesium, potassium, calcium, sodium, phosphorus) delivers vital nourishment. Furthermore, the presence of lactoferrin and lysozyme provides moisturizing, regenerating, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral actions, supporting collagen production, regulating sebum secretion, and protecting skin cells from oxidative stress.
