Typical signs of mature skin such as decreased elasticity, reduced firmness and the formation of wrinkles are strongly linked to a weakness in the skin barrier caused by the impaired synthesis of epidermal lipids. Reforcyl from Rahn was specifically developed to regenerate the perturbed barrier of mature skin and to provide new resistance. The active ingredient is based on two powerful plants: Gynostemma pentaphyllum from the Far East activates LXR, a skin receptor involved in the synthesis of epidermal lipids.
The Mediterranean plant Cistus incanus strengthens the reduced antioxidative defense system found in mature skin to neutralize reactive oxygen species that further damage the skin barrier.
A new double-blind, placebo-controlled and randomized in-vivo study reveals that Reforcyl leads to enhanced cellular cohesion of the stratum corneum and provides substantial barrier repair after skin damage caused by tape stripping. This improvement in barrier strength is mainly due to Reforcyl’s ability to activate epidermal lipid synthesis, according to Rahn.
Reforcyl shows a seven-fold efficacy against the appearance of mature skin. Hydration, firmness, wrinkle depth, elasticity, skin smoothness, barrier strength and regeneration are all markedly improved, according to the company.
