A40 - Cryo-Plumping Stick for Face and Eyes
1% Polyglutamic Acid + Spirodela

Apply locally to the eye contour or any dehydrated area of the face.

The Cryo-Plumping Stick can be used at different points in your routine, depending on your skin’s needs:

• In the morning, after (or in place of) your moisturizer to maintain hydration and de-puff the eye area.

• Before tinted products, as a base, to smooth dehydration lines and improve makeup adherence.

• Throughout the day for an instant cooling and plumping effect.

• Over light makeup if skin feels dry or tight, to restore a smooth, hydrated finish.

To prevent the stick from drying out, carefully replace the transparent cap after each use and store away from heat.

To dispense the product, twist the base counterclockwise.

Polyglutamic Acid 1%:
Polyglutamic acid is a biopolymer derived from the polymerization of glutamic acid, known for its powerful anti-dehydration properties. This active ingredient can retain up to 5,000 times its weight in water. It forms a film on the skin’s surface, creating a microgel that swells upon contact with moisture. This film-forming agent traps water molecules and strengthens the skin barrier. It also stimulates the production of Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF), which help retain water in the stratum corneum. Additionally, polyglutamic acid inhibits the enzyme responsible for breaking down hyaluronic acid in the dermis.

Spirodela Extract:
Spirodela, commonly known as water lentil, is an aquatic plant rich in Apiogalacturonan pectins (APGs) — molecules with exceptional water-binding and water-retaining properties. They support long-lasting hydration and have a plumping effect. APGs also activate several biological pathways: they stimulate aquaporin-3 (a key protein channel for water transport), support moisture balance, and enhance the synthesis of Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF), essential for water retention in the stratum corneum.
