Science

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient operates on multiple fronts: miliacin activates skin repair mechanisms and exhibits potent anti-inflammatory properties, promoting wound healing. Its carbohydrate content helps to form a protective, moisture-retaining film on the skin surface, enhancing hydration. Amino acids support overall skin rejuvenation, while vitamins and minerals contribute to anti-aging effects by potentially reducing blemishes and dark spots. Crucially, it stimulates elafin expression in the dermis, fortifying skin firmness, elasticity, and tone. It also strengthens the cutaneous barrier by encouraging corneocyte envelope formation and protects elastic fibers from degradation, promoting epidermal renewal and repair. Additionally, it possesses antimicrobial attributes, beneficial for managing acne-prone skin.
