QUEBEC CITY—Unipex Innovations offers Canadian Willowherb™ to reduce acne and Kollaren® to increase firmness of the skin. Canadian Willowherb is a Native American soothing ingredient derived from the Epilobium angustifolium plant from the Northern Canadian Prairies. It inhibits P. acnes involved in acne, reduced the formation of free radicals and erythema induced by chemicals and ultraviolet (UV) rays within 30 minutes of use. It’s ideal for use as an anti-irritant, in hair care formulations and sun care/after sun care applications.
Kollaren is a dermis enhancer originating from biomimetic peptides derived from a growth factor. It increases skin firmness through activation of extracellular matrix proteins synthesis (collagen I, collagen III, fibronectin, elastin and laminin). Additionally, it improves tissue renewal and healing. It is ideal for use in anti-aging, firming and lifting skin care applications.
