Melanin
A brown pigment produced by pigment producing skin cells (melanocytes). Increased amount of melanin pigment results in a tanned hue following exposure to UV light.
Milia
Small keratinized cysts lodged in the epidermis. Formed by the encasement of sebum and appearing as a white, hardened grain.
Moisture Builder
Decongestant that stimulates lymph and microcirculation. Calms redness and inflammation.
Mimosa Bark
Enables a spectacular reconstitution of damaged skin with its extraordinary repairing and regenerating properties. The activity of the plant is due to its strong concentration in flavonoids, tannins and mimonosides that activate fibroblasts and accelerate wound healing.
Mitracarpus Scaber
Plant with white flowers, grows in tropical regions. It contains a complex derivative of hydroquinone called harounoside that inhibits melanin synthesis without irritation, linked with Hydroquinone.
Methyl Dihydroxybenzoate
Reduces hyperpigmentation by interfering with the actual production of melanin. This is unique because current popular ingredients like kojic acid and hydroquinone work by interfering with the activity of tyrosinase, the enzyme that stimulates melanin production.
Microcrystalline Cellulose
Smooth, plant based, spherical beads that remove skin cells gently without irritating the skin. (Biodegradable and Eco-Friendly)
Mugwort
Patented complex of a proprietary algae rich in amino acids and polypeptides combined with Mugwort. Reduces inflammation, redness and stinging of sensitive or irritated skin. Inhibits Prostaglandine release in the inflammation cascade.
Martrixyl 3000
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 & Tripeptide-7 – anti-aging, collagen producing, wrinkle reducing
