NECTAPURE – The natural treatment against daily city stress

Certified by ECOCERT®, code number 911-04

Buddleja Davidii and Thymus Vulgaris have been carefully selected for their ability to fight against the harmful effects of pollution on the skin.

Buddleja Davidii, also named the "Butterfly Bush" is known for its ability to attract all types of butterflies and to nourish them with its delicate nectar. In the Alps, Thymus Vulgaris nourishes the Ptilocephala pyrenaella, a rare butterfly that is only to be found in a few alpine valleys.

Nectapure, the synergistic combination of these two plants showed an outstanding activity in the ozone protection test. Ozone is the strongest oxidant, a reactive oxygen species, produced in photochemical reactions and cigarette smoke, that considerably increases the "oxidative stress" on human skin and causes premature skin aging. Cosmetic products containing an ozone-protecting ingredient, such as Nectapure help to prevent wrinkles, loss of elasticity and loss of skin vitality.

Efficacy tests: the anti-oxidative efficacy of Nectapure was demonstrated by in-vitro test. The study demonstrated that Nectapure is a good moisturizer.    

Due to its properties, the cosmetic applications of Nectapure are in all types of formulations against "city stress", anti-aging products, and day care formulations.
