Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate
Cosmate®AcHA,Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate (AcHA), is a specialty HA derivative which is synthesized from the Natural Moisturizing Factor Sodium Hyaluronate (HA) by acetylation reaction. The hydroxyl group of HA is partially replaced with acetyl group. It owns both lipophilic and hydrophilic properties. This helps to promote high affinity and adsorption properties for the skin.

Dimethylmethoxy Chromanol
Cosmate®DMC,Dimethylmethoxy Chromanol is a bio-inspired molecule that is engineered to be similar to gamma-tocopoherol. This results in a powerful antioxidant that results in protection from Radical Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Carbonal Species. Cosmate®DMC has higher antioxidative power than many well-known antioxidants, like Vitamin C, Vitamin E, CoQ 10, Green Tea Extract, etc. In skincare,it has benefits on wrinkle depth, skin elasticity, dark spots, and hyperpigmentation, and lipid peroxidation.

Ergothioneine
Cosmate®EGT,Ergothioneine (EGT),as a kind of rare amino acid, can be initially found in mushrooms and cyanobacteria,Ergothioneine is a unique sulfur containing amino acid that cannot be synthesized by human and is only available from certain dietary sources,Ergothioneine is a naturally occurring amino acid that is synthesized exclusively by fungi, mycobacteria and cyanobacteria.

Ferulic Acid
Cosmate®FA,Ferulic Acid acts as a synergistic with other antioxidants especially vitamin C and E. It can neutralize several damaging free radicals such as superoxide, hydroxyl radical and nitric oxide. It prevents damages to skin cells caused by ultraviolet light. It has anti-irritant properties and may have some skin-whitening effects (inhibits production of melanin). Natural Ferulic Acid is used in anti-aging serums, face creams, lotions, eye creams, lip treatments, sunscreens and antiperspirants.

Glutathione
Cosmate®GSH,Glutathione is an antioxidant, anti-aging, anti-wrinkle and whitening agent. It helps toeliminate wrinkles, increases skin elasticity, shrinks pores and lightens pigment. This ingredient offers free radical scavenging, detoxification, immunity enhancement, anti-cancer & anti-radiation hazards benefits.

Astaxanthin
Astaxanthin is a keto carotenoid extracted from Haematococcus Pluvialis and is fat-soluble. It exists widely in the biological world, especially in the feathers of aquatic animals such as shrimps, crabs, fish, and birds, and plays a role in color rendering.They play two roles in plants and algae, absorbing light energy for photosynthesis and protecting chlorophyll from light damage. We obtain carotenoids through food intake which are stored in the skin, protecting our skin from photodamage.
Studies have found that astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant that is 1,000 times more effective than vitamin E in purifying free radicals produced in the body. Free radicals are a type of unstable oxygen consisting of unpaired electrons that survive by ingesting electrons from other atoms. Once a free radical reacts with a stable molecule, it is converted into a stable free radical molecule, which initiates a chain reaction of free radical combinations.Many scientists believe that the root cause of human aging is cellular damage due to an uncontrolled chain reaction of free radicals. Astaxanthin has a unique molecular structure and excellent antioxidant capacity.

Zinc Pyrrolidone Carboxylate
Cosmate®ZnPCA,Zinc PCA is a water-soluble zinc salt that is derived from PCA, a naturally occurring amino acid that is present in the skin.It’s a combination of zinc and L-PCA, helps regulate the activity of the sebaceous glands and reduces the level of skin sebum in vivo. Its action on bacterial proliferation, notably on Propionibacterium acnes, helps limit the resulting irritation.

Bakuchiol
Cosmate®BAK,Bakuchiol is a 100% natural active ingredient obtained from the babchi seeds (psoralea corylifolia plant). Described as the true alternative to retinol, it presents striking resemblances with the performances of retinoids but is much gentler with the skin.
-
Coenzyme Q10
Cosmate®Q10,Coenzyme Q10 is important for skin care. It plays a vital role in the production of collagen and other proteins that make up the extracellular matrix. When the extracellular matrix is disrupted or depleted, skin will lose its elasticity, smoothness, and tone which can cause wrinkles and premature aging. Coenzyme Q10 can help to maintain overall skin integrity and reduce the signs of aging.

Ascorbyl Glucoside
Cosmate®AA2G ,Ascorbyl glucoside, is a novel compound that is synthesized to increase the stability of Ascorbic acid. This compound shows much higher stability and more efficient skin permeation compared to Ascorbic acid. Safe and effective, Ascorbyl Glucoside is the most futuristic skin wrinkle and whitening agent among all the Ascorbic acid derivatives.
