As we age, our skin evolves. It undergoes more or less visible changes that affect self-perception and well-being. Each stage of life brings its own upheavals, and it's important to take these into account in order to adapt as best we can to these changes, in a perpetual quest for well-being and, by extension, ageing well. This is known as "happy-aging".
The Solabia Group's research has focused on these changes by looking at the cell biology processes involved in each stage of ageing, to address two main targets:
- Working women and men aged 35-45, mainly with children at home, faced with busy days and feeling that something has changed for their skin and that they no longer look their age. Their skin problems: signs of fatigue, a duller complexion, and the first wrinkles giving a rough appearance. Their mantra: "Act before it's too late!
- Experienced women aged 50-60, going through menopause and accelerated aging of their skin, with low self-esteem. Their skin problems: dehydrated, more wrinkled & loss of firmness, more fragile with sensations of cutaneous discomfort (hypersensitivity, itching, dryness, etc.). Their mantra: "Sublime authentic ageing!
With this in mind, Solabia has come up with an innovative range of dedicated active ingredients. FucoLife GR is a low-molecular-weight polysaccharide obtained by bacterial fermentation, available in powder form.
This eco-designed active ingredient is specially designed for very dry, hypersensitive skin. For all women, the menopause is a time of upheaval. Hormonal fluctuations result in changes to the skin's physiology and emotional state, with a particular deterioration in self-esteem. FucoLife GR is a preservative-free powder obtained through a controlled fermentation process. Thanks to its high purity, this polysaccharide promotes skin regeneration by acting at the heart of the extracellular matrix. As a result, it significantly increases dermal thickness and density in the early years of menopause, to prevent profoundly deleterious long-term effects. Repaired, the skin is more comfortable and radiates youthfulness. What's more, during this special period in a woman's life, FucoLife GR reduces feelings of discomfort, improving self-esteem and mood. According to Solabia, women feel better about themselves, and regain their youth and femininity!
Essenc'Age is a pure 100 % powder composed of low molecular weight fucoidans obtained fromAscophyllum nodosum harvested on the island of Ouessant, a unique site classified as a biosphere reserve by Unesco.
L'Ascophyllum Nodosum is recognized for its richness in fucoidans, whose low molecular weight has been selected by the Solabia Group's research teams to create this active ingredient in powder form and without preservatives. These give it its skin rejuvenation and anti-fatigue properties. Thanks to its action on cell senescence, Essenc'Age acts as a genuine cellular protector to help the skin adapt to changes linked to ageing and the environment. According to Solabia, Essenc'Age significantly reduces the first signs of aging with a visible effect on overall wrinkles, and effectively combats signs of fatigue thanks to improved skin resilience. With smoothed/strengthened skin, physiological age and biological age are resynchronized. The complexion is rested, fresh & radiant.
Emul'Spheres: customizable 100% beauty pearls that incorporate lipophilic ingredients into an emulsifier-free emulsion, leaving only skin care.
With the launch of Emul'Spheres technology, Solabia reinforces its position as a major player in the field of skincare pearls. Thanks to two naturally-derived gelling agents that form a network around the oil micro-droplets, this new pearl technology includes five times more lipophilic ingredients (vegetable oil, oily active ingredient, emollient, etc.) than in first-generation doin pearls, creating an emulsifier-free emulsion within each precious pearl. Richer, softer and silkier, Emul'Spheres are ideal, according to Solabia, for dry or sensitive skin, strengthening the hydrolipidic film and improving comfort while offering optimized sensoriality. Now presented in the form of Emul'Spheres Jojoba Oil, a prototype containing over 95 % of natural-origin ingredients, Emul'Spheres technology is also fully customizable, so it can be declined according to the customer's wishes for a tailor-made 100 % pearl!
Ecoskin is a pro-postbiotic that provides a preferential substrate for skin commensal microorganisms. By acting directly on the bioselectivity of the cutaneous microbiome, Ecoskin enhances the complexion's radiance and attenuates sensations of discomfort characteristic of sensitive skin with oily tendencies.
Ecoskin is an active ingredient combining two prebiotics and two postbiotic bacteria in inactivated form. A source of carbon, gluco-oligosaccharides - obtained by enzymatic synthesis - and fructo-oligosaccharides - obtained by pressing the tubers of the Yacon plant - constitute a preferential substrate for skin commensal microorganisms. Combined with lactobacillus-type probiotics, they have the capacity to rebalance the composition of microbial flora for better skin defense. These data have been confirmed by new metagenomic studies conducted in vivo on skin microbiota. Solabia also claims that Ecoskin significantly increases the expression of anti-microbial peptides such as β-defensin 2 and β-defensin 3.
By acting directly on the bioselectivity of the cutaneous microbiome, Ecoskin enhances the complexion's radiance and reduces feelings of discomfort characteristic of sensitive, oily skin.
Adaptogenic plants: Solabia extends its range of adaptogenic plants obtained through SolaGreen Superfluids technology with St John's Wort, Echinacea and Earth Tribute. Renowned for their stimulating and invigorating properties for body and mind, they boost the body's defense systems to actively combat the harmful effects of stress. Composed of standardized and titrated extracts, the adaptogen range soothes stressed skin and helps prevent premature aging.
