Dear visitors
Vitamins are the most important – and at the same time the most extensively researched – building blocks for healthy skin.
Vitamin C (Tetraisopalmitate) for pigmentation correction and collagen formation. Vitamin A (retinoids) for cell renewal and the regeneration of healthy skin.
Further typical questions from our customers and answers can be found at the bottom of this page.

Dear customers
Autumn is just around the corner. The heating will certainly be switched on at night from November onwards. Humidity drops from 50+% to 20–30%. Young skin needs 30 days to adapt, whilst skin aged 50 and over needs around 60 days. Help your skin through this transition.
- Aromatherapy in the bathroom helps to make summer last longer.
- Foot care is a must after a summer of walking barefoot. ELIM shows you how to do this gently. Order the Callus Kit.
- After plenty of sun, your skin needs REGENERATION and MOISTURE. We recommend men use UREA. And for women, fantastic body balms and lotions. Vitamin A, C and E oil belongs in every bathroom anyway.
- Care for hair damaged by the summer sun with MOKANN, HEALING EARTH and INSIGHT.
- Extend your summer tan gently and long-lastingly with MOKANN

A high urea content of 10% increases water flow in the tissue and balances hydration through its regenerative effect. It relieves itching and immediately soothes dry, rough and irritated areas. Almond kernel oil has antioxidant, skin-protecting, emollient and moisturising. Grape seed oil Oil pressed from grape seeds (Vitis vinifera, Vitaceae) consists almost exclusively of fatty acid glycerides. The proportion of unsaturated fatty acids is 90 per cent. It contains vitamin K, lecithin and valuable trace elements. Note: However, formulations containing urea should be avoided on broken skin, as they can cause painful skin irritation. What is UREA? UREA is a time-honoured remedy for dryness and irritation. UREA 10% is a BelCol product of the highest quality. It provides the stratum corneum with additional moisture for hours and gently smooths the skin’s surface. Furthermore, the skin is better protected against irritants. Urea is considered particularly well-tolerated and shows neither significant local side effects nor allergenic potential. Its water-binding effect indirectly provides an antimicrobial benefit, meaning fewer preservatives are required. Suitable for use on the face and body.

Moisturising cream for the skin. Its formula is based on ingredients that serve as a source of energy and moisture for skin cells: collagen, exclusively of marine origin, and DSH-C nanocapsules containing hyaluronic acid, which gradually release their active ingredients to achieve a more effective result. Extra moisturising 24-hour cream boosts the skin’s moisture content and restores its moisture balance. It also replenishes collagen reserves by strengthening the skin’s connective tissue. It reduces the appearance of fine lines and combats damage over time. Suitable for moisturising treatments as well as for daily moisturising and firming care for all skin types. Ideal for very dry skin. 2ml / application ACTIVE INGREDIENTS: COLLAGEN, DSH-C NANOSPHERES
Contents: 50 milliliter (CHF 0.84 / 1 milliliter)
Moisturising, regenerating cream that combats the effects of ageing. The formula is based on a combination of Bifidus bacteria and milk proteins, ingredients that help restore the hydrolipid layer and strengthen the cell structure. The skin’s moisture levels remain high and the skin develops a fresh and supple texture. Its composition stimulates the skin’s enzymatic repair system and is able to detect and repair damage to the DNA, the skin’s genetic material, caused by various environmental oxidative challenges (pollutants).Suitable for regenerative and reconstructive treatments as well as for daily use on all skin types. Ideal for recovery after an intensive exfoliation. 2ml per application Active ingredients: BIFIDUS (REPAIR COMPLEX), LACTOKINE (milk proteins), CERAMIDES, MATRIXYL 3000, SHEA BUTTER and Bisbolol

Best value for money for a scientifically tested eye care product. The most advanced product on the market. Our best-selling eye gel. A powerful gel that nourishes and rejuvenates the eye area. This gel targets moisture levels, collagen formation and organisation, dark circles and fluid retention, as well as the regeneration and thickness of the epidermis. An ideal product for use following dermal fillers and treatments targeting ageing around the eyes. May also be used after eyelid surgery! Tested active ingredients: Ectoin: Enables rapid restoration of protein synthesis and the skin’s defence function. In vivo improvement in wrinkle volume and elasticity. Tests show: more effective and longer-lasting than hyaluronic acid alone Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5: The peptide binds to latent TGF-β and activates the collagen production cascade. Protects the ECM from damage. Tetrapeptide-17 (GEKG): Stimulates ECM biosynthesis, such as hyaluronic acid, collagen and fibronectin, which play a crucial role in skin ageing, healing and regeneration. Swertia chirata extract: This extract has been shown to induce a strong production of growth factors from fat-derived stem cells. It increases the thickness of the epidermis, thereby reducing the appearance of wrinkles. Watermelon fruit extract + apple fruit extract + lentil fruit extract + sodium PCA + lactate: Delivers instant hydration as the membrane becomes more fluid and skin’s moisture levels rise. Encapsulated NAD+ fragments: Catalyse the expression of sirtuins (longevity genes). It has been established that NAD+ has a decisive influence on vital processes, including gene expression, cell cycle progression, insulin secretion, DNA repair, apoptosis and ageing. Ribose: Improves ATP regeneration. Anti-wrinkle effect. Vitamin E: Possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Mixture of cholesterol, ceramides, sphingosines and behenic acid: Activates the skin’s water management. Tripeptide-10-Citrulline: This peptide has demonstrated in vitro efficacy in regulating fibrillogenesis. It controls the higher-order matrix and stimulates the formation of well-structured, supple and resilient skin. Vitamin K-Oxide: Accelerates the healing process and helps reduce the severity of bruising following non-surgical and surgical procedures. Reduces dark circles and lymphatic fluid accumulation under the eyes. This is what Prof. Dr Markus Depfenhart has to say about the product: "The thin skin around the eye area quickly shows fine lines due to dehydration, and so a rich blend of moisturisers forms the basis of this gel. Furthermore, the dermal matrix has two objectives: protection against degradation and the synthesis of new structural proteins such as collagen, fibronectin and hyaluronic acid. The activation of latent TGF-β has powerful regenerative effects. NAD+ fragments are used to activate sirtuins – which are involved in gene silencing, apoptosis, fatty acid metabolism and the regulation of cell lifespan. Collagen stimulation should be controlled through proper folding and assembly. A decorin-based peptide stimulates and supports the reconstruction of the collagen structure. The appearance of under-eye bags and dark circles is treated with vitamin K oxide. Applied just once a day, the eye gel has a visible and long-lasting effect in just a few days."

You ask, we’re happy to answer:
1. Why are natural cosmetics often cheaper when bought directly from the manufacturer than in a perfume shop?
Because natural cosmetics still carry the ‘organic’ label. Perfumeries aren’t used to this type of product. However, these professionals know their way around perfumes very well.
2. How does buying skincare directly from the manufacturer benefit the quality of the ingredients?
Every active ingredient can be sourced and processed to different quality standards. We are familiar with every formula and list the active ingredients and their concentrations on our website.
3. How can I tell whether my cosmetics have been freshly produced or have been in storage for a long time?
We require every manufacturer to specify the exact expiry dates BEFORE and AFTER opening. When importing directly from the manufacturer, our logistics partner Ancora Meilestei checks the expiry dates.
4. The best anti-ageing skincare for sensitive skin, direct from the manufacturer without expensive brand mark-ups.
A very personalised answer is needed here. The best way for us to advise you is by asking you a few questions. We can then find a solution amongst the affordable products.
5. How can I change my skincare routine whilst avoiding unnecessary additives?
We’ll work with you to adapt your routine until you achieve your skincare goals. Often, steps such as cleansing are skipped or carried out using a cheap product. We’ll help you find a comprehensive solution tailored to your skin.
6. Why are serums sold directly to consumers usually more highly concentrated than products from the chemist’s?
That’s only partly true. What is true, however, is that we, as manufacturers, know the exact concentrations of the active cosmetic ingredients. The pharmacist has to focus on prescription-only products. One more thing: a higher dose isn’t always better. We guide you towards your skincare goal.
7. Which ingredients in conventional cosmetics should I avoid, and what are the alternatives?
Wow – this list is long. BUT don’t worry; it’s the concentration and how it’s used that matter. Websites such as cosmeticanalysis.com can help with this. Our opinion: If it’s right at the end of the INCI list, there’s hardly any of it in there. If it’s a cleanser, it plays a minor role, as it only remains on the skin for a short time. If it’s a day cream, peptides are the best choice.
