Mibelle targets neuroactive power to look, feel good
Mibelle Biochemistry has launched TiMOOD, a skincare ingredient designed to positively influence mood and emotional wellbeing. Based on timut pepper, a spice
plant from the Himalayas, the Swiss firm says TiMOOD can improve neuronal function in the skin and thereby increase skin homogeneity. Mibelle’s latest launch has
been shown to improve emotional wellbeing in stressed volunteers leading to a more relaxed state. Benefits of TiMOOD are said
to include: protection of neurons from ageing, supporting healthy and even skin complexion, improved wellbeing under stress, and stimulations of the skin-brain connection. “In a global society characterized by more and more people feeling
stressed, the concept of emotional wellbeing and has become increasingly important. Self-care in beauty can help to boost mental health, and in turn a more relaxed state of mind and less stress can improve skin appearance too,” a spokeswoman said. “Skin that feels good can boost
one’s mood; not only consciously due to a visible improvement of the facial appearance but also unconsciously via the skin-brain axis. This link between the skin and brain is achieved by signaling via released molecules as well as through the direct connection by nerve cells.”
Givaudan unwraps PrimalHyal Hydra[+]
Givaudan Active Beauty has taken the wraps off PrimalHyal Hydra[+], a cationic hyaluronic acid (HA) crafted by ‘white biotechnology’. The Swiss firm says its new
active outperforms standard HA hydration benefits by at least a factor of two, bringing “never- before-seen moisturising efficacy to both rinse-off and leave-on applications”. Clinical tests versus placebo
in different application formats (shower gel, lotion, sheet masks)
established that PrimalHyal Hydra[+] at 0.1% is able to provide instant skin hydration in just one application, both in rinse-off and leave-on applications; bring long- term skin hydration with prolonged use; reinforce skin barrier function by increasing lipid and protein production’ and maintain hydration benefits for up to four days. “PrimalHyal Hydra[+] establishes
a new gold standard in terms of hydration as it demonstrates significantly better performance
than other grades of ‘native’ HA, from various molecular weights, both in rinse-off and leave-on applications,” said Mathias Fleury, head of actives for Givaudan Active Beauty. “By modifying the charges of the
molecule, we were able to boost its adhesion and affinity for the surface of the skin,” he added. “And amazingly, we have
been able to demonstrate that the benefits are maintained for up to four days after stopping the treatment.”
