Nectaria Lithops™

Nectaria Lithops™ is a 100% natural active ingredient that stimulates vitamin D production on the skin thanks to the optimization of the skin microenvironment. It strengthens, revitalizes, volumizes, and glows the faded skin to achieve a D-Skin (new cosmetic concept).


The active was recognized in the BSB Innovation Awards and the Cosmetorium Awards.


The story behind comes from the plant Lithops pseudotruncatella (‘Living Stones’). Thanks to its plant mechanism of action, the active boosts vitamin D synthesis in skin cells to create the optimal skin environment, moisturizes the deepest layers of the skin, increases the skin dewiness and cheek volume, and improves skin microcirculation, tone, and texture.

Product Highlights
  • Nectaria Lithops™ is an active ingredient that biophysically optimizes the skin microenvironment and vitamin D levels on the skin and brings a new concept, the D-Skin. This is a deeply hydrated and dewy skin, more strenghtened, revitalized, and volumized.
  • The concept of D-Skin begins with a biophysical mechanism of action: an active ingredient that optimizes the skin microenvironment and improves the water level of the skin deepest layers by having a vitamin D enriched skin. This approach increases skin dewiness and cheeks' volume, improves oxygenation, microcirculation, the tone, and the texture of the skin. Thanks to the optimization of vitamin D levels, we achieve a D-Skin: Dewy, Deeply hydrated, D-lighted, a D-Approach for Sun Care, Vitamin D enriched. Deeply hydrated and structured skin that shines from the inside out.
  • Marketing claims and concepts include D-skin (vitamin D enriched skin, dewy skin, d-lighted skin, deep-layer skin hydration), volumize, glow, plump, revitalize; oxygenation and microcirculation booster, sun care with a D-approach and healthy skin, and a shiny skin from the inside out.
  • Nectaria Lithops™ is made from Lithops pseudotruncatella, a succulent plant native to the deserts of southern Africa, known as “Living Stones”, is specialized in managing water, space, and light to survive in very extreme conditions.
  • A very long-lived plant in the most extreme climate: it can live up to 95 years. To maintain healthy cells and water levels during periods of extreme drought, this plant uses a secret weapon: the structuring of sugars. This structuring together with a peculiar metabolism allows Lithops to capture the light necessary for its photosynthesis without compromising its water balance.
  • Nectaria Lithops™ is a suspension containing Lithops pseudotruncatella glycoconjugates in glycerine.
  • This is a natural product, so color or transparency may evolve slightly after production without affecting its properties. After some time, a precipitate may appear. This can be solved by shaking well before use.
