Let’s take a moment to look in-depth at the key ingredients of this product and the benefits they have for your skin.

 

  1. Silk fibroin (silk extract) - Silk extract is prepared from the cocoon of the silk caterpillar, Bombyx mori. The silk fibroin in this extract helps create a bio-matrix that promotes moisturization, sebum absorption, and skin tightening. Bio-active proteins and peptides present in silk extract increase cellular activity of epidermal cells and growth of collagen producing dermal fibroblasts. Silk proteins also demonstrate antioxidant and tyrosinase inhibitive (brightening) effects.

 

  1. Propolis cera - Propolis Cera is a brownish-looking, resinous substance collected by bees and used to protect hives from invaders and cold weather. Propolis has smoothing, moisturizing, and oil control properties. It is rich in flavonoids and phenolic compounds with well documented antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral properties. Propolis has the ability to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles thanks to its anti-aging properties, brighten dark spots thanks to its antioxidants, and is a powerful tool to fight off acne not only due to its antibacterial nature but also for its anti-inflammatory properties.

 

  1. Human Oligopeptide-1(EGF 2-nano) - Human Oligopeptide-1 (EGF 2-nano) is a small polypeptide of 53 amino acids that serves as a cytokine to stimulate epidermal cell growth and proliferation. Also known as EGF or epidermal growth factor, this nano encapsulated peptide-based epidermal growth factor that enhances cell renewal. This peptide is derived from non-human sources using recombinant DNA biotechnology. Amarte uses a two-nanometer encapsulated formulation of EGF for better stability and absorption. This ActivElement has been shown to speed the healing of wounds and reduce scarring. It has been shown to significantly reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, rejuvenate the complexion, and increase skin's moisture level with just few drops.

Now that we’ve touched on those results-driven pillar ingredients and you’ve seen what makes this powerhouse product so magnificent, what are you waiting for? It’s time to get glowing with Overnight Express Therapy!
