100% natural?

INCI name: MARIS AQUA (SEA WATER).

Function: Our unique natural active principle, l’eau reviviscente restores and preserves the skin’s homeostasis (fundamental balance), altered by various external aggressors (stress, pollution, cold weather, smoking, fatigue, etc.). It stimulates the skin’s cell renewal process, delays cell ageing, and reactivates its natural self-regulation and self-repair mechanisms. It also boosts collagen synthesis and restores the skin’s radiance, energy levels and vitality. l’eau reviviscente supports skin throughout its life cycle, to keep it in good health, by adapting to its age. 

Origin: l’eau reviviscente was born from a unique combination of sea water and spring water, drawn from deep down in the Iroise Sea Marine Park.

Products: l’eau reviviscente, le baume reviviscent, la crème reviviscente (rich and light).

Seafill exopolysaccharides (EPS) 

INCI name: ALTEROMAS FERMENT EXTRACT.

Function: EPSs are marine-based natural active principles, and act on the skin’s homeostasis (fundamental balance) and hydration. They stimulate the skin’s collagen and elastin synthesis, for re-densifying action.
