CO2LLAGENEER®

The manufacturer of Collageneer® has renamed their product CO2LLAGENEER®. This change reflects their transition to a cleaner CO2 extraction method, replacing the previous use of hexane as a solvent. Despite the updated name, the product specifications and INCI name remain unchanged. CAS No.: Mixture CO2LLAGENEER® (formerly Collageneer®) is an anti-aging and firming ingredient that stimulates the synthesis of a high-quality collagen to increase elasticity and firmness in the skin, helping to remodel the facial contour. CO2LLAGENEER® is made from lupeol, which is extracted from the coatings of sweet white lupin seeds in a patented process. Once extracted, the lupeol is solubilized in oleic sunflower oil and then semi-refined and stabilized by adding natural ±-tocopherol. Sourced from lupine plants cultivated using sustainable agricultural practices in France. CO2LLAGENEER® works by stimulating the production of HSP47 in the skin. HSP47 is a collagen-specific I molecular chaperone which helps the synthesis of good quality procollagen I.  Benefits: Increases skin firmness and elasticity Remodels the facial profile Anti-aging Applications: Anti-aging skin care products Remodeling skin care products Firming skin care products Eye contour treatments INCI: Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil and Lupinus Albus Seed Extract, Tocopherol CO2LLAGENEER® is a registered trademark of Laboratoires Expanscience, the manufacturer.
