Copper PCA: A highly effective skincare ingredient that combines copper with PCA (pyrrolidone carboxylic acid), Copper PCA promotes collagen and elastin synthesis, reducing wrinkles and fine lines for a more youthful complexion. It also acts as a potent antioxidant, protecting the skin against free radicals and oxidative damage. Copper PCA has anti-inflammatory properties, soothing and calming irritated or inflamed skin to help achieve a balanced, comfortable complexion.



Sodium Bicarbonate: Sodium Bicarbonate, offers multiple benefits for the skin. It acts as a gentle exfoliant, removing dead skin cells for a smoother complexion. It also soothes and calms skin irritation, while helping to regulate the pH balance of our Copper Activator serum.



Lysyl Oxidase: An enzyme that plays a crucial role in the formation and maintenance of collagen and elastin fibres in the skin, Lysyl Oxidase is utilised for its ability to support optimal skin functioning.

Copper PCA promotes collagen and elastin synthesis by activating essential enzymes in the skin and stimulating the growth factors that support collagen and elastin synthesis. It also optimises skin functioning by inhibiting the activity of inflammatory cytokines. These cytokines are signalling molecules that contribute to skin inflammation and various skin conditions. By suppressing their action, Copper PCA helps reduce inflammation, calm the skin, and promote a healthier complexion.



Copper PCA also acts as an antioxidant by neutralising harmful free radicals in the skin. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can cause oxidative stress and damage to skin cells. Copper PCA donates electrons to neutralise these free radicals – preventing them from causing harm to the skin's structure and function. By reducing oxidative stress, Copper PCA helps protect the skin from premature ageing, environmental aggressors and other external factors that can lead to skin damage.



Lysyl Oxidase works by facilitating the cross-linking of collagen and elastin, which enhances the skin's structural integrity, elasticity, and firmness. By promoting the proper alignment and organisation of collagen and elastin fibres, Lysyl Oxidase helps improve the overall texture and resilience of the skin. It also helps repair damaged skin tissues and contributes to the reduction of wrinkles and fine lines.



Sodium bicarbonate has anti-inflammatory properties due to its ability to regulate pH levels. When applied to the skin, it can help neutralise acidic conditions that contribute to inflammation. By restoring the skin's pH balance, sodium bicarbonate helps reduce redness, irritation, and itching, providing a soothing and calming effect. It may also help minimise the release of inflammatory mediators –such as cytokines – which play a role in promoting skin inflammation.
