Impaired autophagy weakens the skin barrier and promotes skin “garb-aging”. Clinical studies have shown that activating this form of cellular spring-cleaning markedly improves skin tone and leads to smooth, redensified skin. Pumpkins from Styria, a region in Austria renowned for its healthy pumpkin seed oil, are used to produce REFORCYL®-AION. It is carbon-neutral, conforms to the principles of a circular economy and provides for a holistic upcycling concept for skin, soul and our planet.
