Elix-IR 1 L

Description and origin

Elix-IR™ is an innovative cosmetic ingredient designed to counteract the hidden impact of infrared radiation (IR-A), one of the key accelerators of photoaging. Unlike conventional UV filters, it works on deeper skin layers, reducing oxidative stress, protecting collagen and elastin, and preventing premature skin damage.

This active is based on botanical extracts with strong antioxidant properties. It is widely used in modern anti-aging, anti-pollution, and skin defense formulations aimed at preserving youthful appearance.

Key benefits

In combined formulations

• day and night protective creams;
