(Active) ingredients
As we age, the body’s production of Coenzyme Q10 decreases, including in the skin, which can lead to decreased energy levels in skin cells and increased signs of aging. Research shows that applying Coenzyme Q10 topically to the skin can not only increase energy levels in the epidermis, but also helps support cell renewal and reduce the visible signs of aging. This helps keep the skin better protected and maintains its vitality.
Jojoba oil contains vitamin E and B-complex vitamins, which contribute to antioxidant activity, skin repair, and protection against free radical damage. It also has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, making it useful for soothing irritated skin and treating acne.

Step: 3. Hydration, protection and repair – Creams
Here is a global step by step routine for your skin.
1. Cleansing the skin – Cleansers
Start with a cleanser to remove dirt, oil and makeup. Gently massage the cleanser into damp skin and rinse with lukewarm water.
Cleansing is the first step in any skincare routine. It removes dirt, oil and makeup from the skin, leaving your skin feeling fresh and clean. Regular cleansing prevents clogged pores and helps reduce skin problems such as acne.
2. Targeted care – Serums
Apply a serum to cleansed skin. Choose a serum that is tailored to your skin needs, such as anti-aging or hydration. Let the serum sit on your skin for a few minutes before moving on to the next step.
Serums are concentrated formulas that penetrate deep into the skin to target specific skin concerns, such as fine lines, pigmentation or loss of elasticity. They often contain powerful active ingredients and are applied after cleansing to maximise their effectiveness.
3. Hydration, protection and repair – Creams
Apply a cream to nourish and protect the skin. Use a day cream in the morning and a night cream in the evening.
Creams hydrate and protect the skin, provide the necessary nutrition and help restore the skin barrier. They prevent dryness and irritation and can address specific skin problems such as dark spots or wrinkles.
4. UV- and light protection (Sunscreen)
Finish with a sunscreen. This will protect your skin from harmful UV rays and prevent premature skin aging. Apply generously and reapply as needed during the day.
Sun protection is essential to protect your skin from harmful UV rays. It prevents sunburn, premature aging and reduces the risk of skin cancer. Use a broad spectrum sunscreen daily to protect your skin, even on cloudy days.
