The Benefits

Brightening

Brightening your skin means restoring its natural glow. One of the best ways to do this is through exfoliation. By exfoliating, you promote faster skin cell turnover, replacing old, damaged cells with fresh, radiant ones. This keeps your skin looking vibrant and healthy.

Anti-Pigmentation

Dealing with pigmentation means targeting melanin overproduction to reduce dark spots and prevent new ones. Melanin production can be triggered by UV exposure, pollution, hormonal changes (like during pregnancy), and inflammation (from acne or cuts). This excess pigment is then transferred to surrounding cells in epidermis called keratinocytes, which then moves to the skin's surface, causing visible dark spots.

To treat hyperpigmentation, a personalised and consistent approach is needed. Our anti-pigmentation products include lightening agents to block tyrosinase (the enzyme that creates melanin), antioxidants to fight free radicals, and ingredients to speed up skin cell turnover, removing pigmented cells. Using broad-spectrum sun protection is crucial to prevent new pigmentation during treatment.

Plumping

Skin plumping involves using active ingredients to boost the production of key structural components like collagen, the dermal-epidermal junction, and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), giving your skin more volume and density. Collagen provides structural support and firmness, while the dermal-epidermal junction, a thin connective layer, ensures smooth, wrinkle-free skin by facilitating cell communication. GAGs, like hyaluronic acid, keep your skin hydrated and plump from within. By stimulating these components, active ingredients help restore your skin's plumpness and radiance.

Complexion-Evening (Anti-Blotchiness)

Evening skin tone is all about reducing blotchiness and achieving a more uniform complexion. Skincare products designed for this purpose use a blend of active ingredients, including soothing agents, anti-pigmentation compounds, antioxidants, and skin-restoring elements. These ingredients work together to diminish redness, inflammation, and pigment irregularities caused by inflammation, while also strengthening and protecting your skin against environmental irritants and future damage. This promotes healing and resilience, leaving your skin more balanced, radiant, and beautiful.

Scar-Repairing

Anti-Scarring skincare targets the pigmented and textured scars left by acne breakouts. These scars form due to inflammation disrupting collagen, elastin fibres, and melanin-producing cells, leading to uneven healing, indented areas, and dark red marks during recovery. Anti-Scarring actives harness growth factors and other essential elements to stimulate cell repair and regeneration, optimising the skin's healing process to reduce scar formation. They also effectively diminish older pigmented scars, improving overall skin texture and leaving you with a smoother, brighter complexion and significantly reduced scar visibility.

Chemical & Physical Exfoliation

Dual exfoliation in skincare uses both chemical acids like AHAs and PHAs, and physical particles like apricot kernel powder for better results. The physical exfoliation helps the acids penetrate deeper and faster. Depending on the acid, you get benefits like reducing pigmentation, fighting ageing, preventing acne, and controlling oil. Combining both methods gives you quicker and more noticeable improvements in skin texture and appearance.

Active Ingredients

Stabilised Vitamin C

Stabilised Vitamin C is an upgraded form of the "Vitamin C" ingredient as it has been formulated so that it cannot oxidise, which would render it ineffective. It is a powerful antioxidant which reduces cell ageing by fighting free-radicals and stimulating collagen synthesis. It is also very adept at moderating melanin production, which effectively limits pigmentation, brightening and lightening the skin.

Sponge Extract

Sponge Extract is composed of fibres, which act like little needles, providing both a chemical and mechanical (physical) exfoliation. Once the Sponge makes contact with the skin, it provides a peeling action, which then induces micro-inflammation resulting in the renewal of the skin. Subsequently, as the "needles" dissolve, they secrete a stimulating substance which produces collagen and new cells, recreating a "Micro-Needling" effect on the skin without aesthetic intervention, creating a new and younger skin.

Bearberry Concentrate

Bearberry Concentrate, derived from Bearberry leaves, is packed with natural compound arbutin, known for its brightening properties. Arbutin inhibits melanin production, visibly reducing dark spots and brightening complexion. Additionally it shields skin from environmental stressors, preserving and enhancing luminosity.

Phyto-Cellular Fusions (PCF)

Phyto-Cellular Fusion (PCF) of Pomegranate and Arabian Cotton, redefining skincare with its potent anti-ageing and UV protective properties. It enhances skin's microbiome defences against UV radiation, releasing natural protective postbiotics to neutralise sun-induced damage. Pomegranateís lipidic fractions provide essential lipids and prebiotic polyphenols like Ellagic Acid, that brighten and unify complexion. Arabian Cottonís cellular factors offer antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and photo-protective benefits, leaving the skin soothed and strengthened. This powerful blend combats sun induced premature skin ageing and pigmentation.

Pomegranate Enzyme

Pomegranate Enzymes, obtained by fermenting pomegranate with Lactobacillus Lactis, provide gentle exfoliation that promotes cell renewal and improves skin tone and texture. The specific fermentation and filtration process isolates these potent enzymes, enhancing their ability to soften and unify the skin for a smoother, more radiant complexion.

Rainbow Algae Cellular Concentrate

This Cellular Extract is derived from Rainbow Algae using a patented enzymatic method to maximise its potency. It helps to lighten existing pigmentation marks and prevent new ones by inhibiting melanin production cycles and stimulating melanin breakdown.

Fermented Lactobacillus & Cocos Nuci-fera

Fermented Lactobacillus & Cocos Nucifera Extract is derived from the fermentation of Lactobacillus Bacteria and Coconut Juice. This process releases natural sugars that serve as probiotics on the skin, enhancing the balance of the skin microbiome. It promotes the growth of beneficial microorganisms while safeguarding against harmful bacteria. In addition to supporting the microbiome, it functions as a natural preservative and skin softener.

Spotlight

Galenic Channeling

Ayuna's NEED-LE is a revolutionary serum-in-cream designed to treat pigmentation irregularities and rejuvenate skin, mimicking the effects of microneedling. The innovative technology offers increased collagen production, enhanced skin renewal and better penetration of active ingredients. It uses natural silicon-based microchannel spicules from the freshwater sponge Spongilla Lacustis to create tiny, imperceptible channels in the skin. These spicules promote exfoliation, stimulate collagen and boost ingredient absorption by up to threefold for nourished, more elastic skin with noticeable overnight improvements. NEED-LE offers a gentle yet effective at-home treatment with the rejuvenating benefits of collagen induction therapy.
