ingredients

Two of the body's own signalling proteins, recreated through biotechnology to be identical to those skin naturally produces. Rather than working only on the surface, they support the skin's own renewal processes where visible ageing begins.

Did you knowThe 1986 Nobel Prize in Medicine went to Stanley Cohen and Rita Levi-Montalcini for the discovery of growth factors — EGF among them.

IN SERUM

A next-generation Centella asiatica complex delivering plant exosomes alongside 16,000 plant peptides. It targets the cellular drivers of visible ageing rather than masking them at the surface.

Did you knowCentella asiatica is known as "tiger grass" — tradition holds that wounded tigers rolled in it to heal. It has been used in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine for more than 2,000 years.

IN DAY CREAM

A modern UVA filter that holds its protective power through hours of sun exposure, where older filters break down. One of four filters that together deliver broad-spectrum SPF 30.

Did you knowUVA is the wavelength that ages skin — and older UVA filters start breaking down in sunlight within the first hour. DHHB was engineered to stay stable all day.

IN DAY CREAM

The star flower of the Swiss Alps survives extreme UV and cold by producing its own antioxidant defences. In the serum, that same chemistry helps neutralise free radicals and buffer daily environmental stress.

Did you knowEdelweiss was once so prized as a token of devotion that climbers risked cliff faces to pick it — which is why it became a protected species across the Alps.

IN SERUM

An extract of alpine willowherb, cultivated in the Swiss Alps under controlled conditions. It helps regulate excess oil and refine the look of pores, so skin stays matte without being stripped.

Did you knowAlpine willowherb (Epilobium fleischeri) is a pioneer species — one of the first plants to colonise the bare ground left behind by retreating glaciers.

IN CLEANSING GEL

A hexapeptide that acts on microRNA-145, a molecule involved in how skin cells differentiate and renew. It is designed to support the skin’s regenerative rhythm, which naturally slows with age.

Did you knowMicroRNAs were only discovered in 1993, in a roundworm, and were initially dismissed as a biological curiosity. They went on to reshape how we understand gene regulation.

IN SERUM

Cultured stem cells from a rare grape variety, developed to protect the skin's own stem cells from UV-induced stress. It works alongside the UV filters: the filters block, this protects against what gets through.

Did you knowIt comes from Gamay Teinturier Fréaux — an unusual grape whose flesh is red, not just its skin. Only a handful of varieties worldwide share that trait.

IN DAY CREAM

Vitamin B3, and one of the most studied actives in skincare. It strengthens the skin barrier, supports an even tone and helps regulate oil. Dosed at 2% in the serum, where it stays on the skin and has time to work.

Did you knowNiacinamide came out of 1930s pellagra research — a public-health breakthrough decades before anyone thought to put it in a face cream.

IN SERUM & CLEANSING GEL

A stabilised plant enzyme that loosens dead surface cells without abrasive particles or acids. Exfoliation without the grit, which matters on skin that is already shaved several times a week.

Did you knowThe enzyme comes from papaya. Wrapping meat in papaya leaves to tenderise it is a centuries-old technique that relies on exactly the same protein-breaking action.

IN CLEANSING GEL

Activated charcoal carries an enormous internal surface area — a single gram can span several hundred square metres. That structure binds pollution particles, excess oil and residue so they rinse away instead of settling in.

Did you knowActivated charcoal sits on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, where it is used in emergency rooms to absorb ingested toxins.
