Hierogaline has a very high curative effect towards UVA induced toxicity in skin cells. This original activity is not found for other classical anti-free radical compounds used, such as vitamin E. Hierogaline also has a high anti-radical activity in preventive treatment.
As a result of its preventive and above all curative action towards free radicals, HIEROGALINE is the indispensable cosmetic raw material for :
• preparing the skin for exposure to sunlight while preserving its beauty
• repairing damage due to actinic and physiologic aging.
Hierogaline is intended to be incorporated in formulations of products to be applied to zones exposed to the sun or susceptible to be damaged by the weather :
• pre- and post-sun products
• lip and eye contours
• skin care products for hands
• facial anti-aging creams
• care of the bust and cleavage
Cosmetically active molecules in wheat germ and sesame oils are extracted by molecular distillation and then combined to form Hierogaline.
As a result of very high vacuum and very short contact time of the products with the source of heat, the active fractions of the oils can be isolated in the absence of degradation.
