Luteana

FIRST INTEGRATIVE SOLUTION TO REBALANCE AND SOOTHE SENSITIVE SKIN

AN INNOVATIVE APPROACH FOR SENSITIVE SKIN

Rebalancing the Neuro‐Immuno‐Cutaneous system

Sensitive skin is characterized by hyper-reactivity to the slightest stimuli leading to unpleasant symptoms. It’s a complex and difficult condition to deal with because it’s both multifactorial and persistent. Recent research has shown that cutaneous cells interact strongly with nerve fibers and immune cells. These interactions involve the exchange of biological mediators which modulate the activity of this system. In the case of sensitive skin, the Neuro‐Immuno‐Cutaneous (NIC) system is destabilized, resulting in hypersensitivity and feelings of discomfort.

THE BIO-INSPIRED SOLUTION

Yielding the power of a Tahitian microalgae species

Microphyt has developed an innovative approach to sensitive skin using a Tahitian golden microalgae species, Tisochrysis lutea, which has an extraordinary ability to adapt since it is considered sensitive yet it lives in a stressful environment, i.e. hot waters with a high salt and acidity content.

Based on its unique sustainable technology, Microphyt developed Luteana™, a precious oily extract containing powerful compounds such as omega-3 fatty acids, sterols and xanthophylls, namely fucoxanthin.
