Hyaluronic Acid is formed by skin cells and is part of the connective tissue of the skin. One of its key functions is to retain moisture, and it has the ability to bind in between 1,000 and 10,000 times its own weight in water (i.e. one gram binds between one and ten liters). As we age, the skin's natural ability to produce Hyaluronic Acid depletes and wrinkles start to form and deepen.

Glycine Saponin, also known as Glycine Soja Germ Extract, is an active ingredient extracted from the soya bean. It is one of the most effective stimulators of Hyaluronic Acid in cells in the dermal layer of skin and has been proven to increase Hyaluronic Acid production by up to 256% on cell level*.

Enoxolone, also known as Glycyrrhetinic Acid is derived from the roots of Chinese licorice plants. It inhibits the Hyaluronic Acid degradating enzyme Hyaluronidase (HYAL1) and therefore the degradation of skin‘s own Hyaluronic Acid by more than 50%.

After analysing more than 50,000 substances, Eucerin scientists discovered Epicelline®, an innovative active ingredient that reactivates the skin’s youth genes at the root by making skin cells act younger.
