THE INGREDIENTS

WHY POMEGRANATE?

The Pomegranate extract is a rich source of tannins, anthocyanins, vitamins (A, C, E) and minerals and is widely used for its antioxidant properties. One pomegranate contains three times the antioxidant properties of red wine or green tea. This high level of antioxidants is effective in combating free radicals that cause premature skin cell ageing. Pomegranate extract has also significant astringent properties, due to the contained tannins. As a result, it tightens the pores and strengthens the skin epidermis, thus being ideal for oily and combination skin.

WHY CHAMOMILE?

Chamomile [Matricaria recutita], a popular Greek field herb, is considered one of nature’s most valuable medicinal plants, mainly due to its strong anti-inflammatory properties. Chamomile extract, with its emollient and soothing properties, reduces mild skin irritations. Its vast therapeutic applications, have led to its cultivation all around the world.

WHY WHEAT PROTEINS?

Wheat has always been a symbol of good health and fertility while all stages of cultivation have forever been accompanied by rituals defining everyday life. Wheat aleurone, the thin layer under the bran, is the part of the wheat kernel with the highest content in vitamins and minerals. It contains an abundance of B2 vitamin, which improves the metabolism and aids the absorption of nutrients; B3 plays an important role in promoting healthy skin and B5 possesses regenerative properties.

WHY MILK?

Milk has been used as a cosmetic since antiquity for its moisturising, purifying and nourishing properties. It is still considered an invaluable skincare ingredient due to its rich composition and skin compatibility. Thanks to their excellent absorption and water-binding ability, milk proteins have excellent moisturising properties, offering more than 40% essential amino acids that cannot be synthesised by human cells. They play a vital role in the maintenance of normal cellular metabolic activity, participating in the synthesis of collagen, elastin and keratin. They have a high affinity with the skin’s natural components and are acknowledged to be true epidermomimetic substances, remarkably biocompatible, and therefore perfectly well tolerated.

WHY ALMOND OIL?

Almond, especially the sweet variety, is known for its inflammatory and immune-boosting effects, making this an ideal nutrition source for those in recovery. Almond oil, with its exceptional soothing properties, when applied regularly, nourishes extra dry skin and softens neck wrinkles. It also acts as an effective skin cleanser without causing any irritations to the epidermis.

KORRES SUNCARE

YOGHURT

SUNSCREEN FACE CREAM SPF30

EXTREME FLUID /NON OILY TEXTURE  

A new, fluid, non-greasy sunscreen completes the KORRES YOGHURT SUNCARE collection based on the unique benefits of edible, organic yoghurt. The new Sunscreen Face Cream SPF30 provides photostable protection against ultraviolet radiation [UVA-UVB] and soothing properties; it is easily absorbed, offering a matte finish and meeting the special needs of sensitive and oily /combination skin – ideal for everyday city or holiday use.

Inspired by the long-lived Greek tradition of applying yoghurt onto sunburned skin, the development of the KORRES Yoghurt line took over three years and it still remains a global-first, as this was the first time edible yoghurt was incorporated into a cosmetic formula. The decision to avoid using desiccated yoghurt powder was in order to ensure that yoghurt’s unique properties were maintained in the final formulation. Yoghurt, a natural source of lactose, proteins, minerals and vitamins, increases the water content of the epidermis' top layers and refreshes the skin.

THE INGREDIENTS

WHY YOGHURT?

Yoghurt is a rich nourishing ingredient; it is an essential food supplement, integral to numerous European and Asian dietary traditions. In addition to its nutritional properties, yoghurt makes an excellent cosmetic ingredient due to its levels of lactose, proteins, minerals and vitamins, which increase the moisture levels in the upper layers of the epidermis. Protein, a basic constituent of the skin, and lactose nourish and restructure the epidermis. These properties ‘wrapped’ in yoghurt’s cooling, soft texture leaves dry skin areas moisturised, soothed and refreshed. The wealth of minerals and vitamins [Calcium, Phosphor, Potassium, Zinc, and vitamins A, E, D, B2 and B12] also provide antioxidant protection and help reduce the visible signs of ageing. Lactic acid has anti-microbial properties, helping to fight certain skin disorders while yoghurt’s vitamins E and D, help relieve and heal sunburn impact.

WHY WHEAT?

Wheat was cultivated in prehistoric times in fertile Mesopotamia. Ancient civilizations worshipped deities linked to wheat: for the Egyptians it was Osiris; for the Greeks goddess Demeter. Wheat has always been a symbol of good health and fertility while all stages of cultivation have forever been accompanied by rituals defining everyday life. Wheat aleurone, the thin layer under the bran, is the part of the wheat kernel with the highest content in vitamins and minerals. It contains an abundance of B2, which improves metabolism and aids the absorption of nutrients; B3 plays an important role in promoting healthy skin and B5 possesses regenerative properties.

WHY ALOE VERA?

Aloe Vera has been used for centuries as a medicinal plant thanks to its beneficial properties. References of it appear in many cultures: from the ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans, to the Indian and Chinese literature. Applied externally, it heals burns and wounds, stimulates cell regeneration and has significant antioxidant, skin softening and soothing properties.

KORRES FACE

WILD ROSE/ HYDRATION & BRIGHTNESS

25+

WILD ROSE

15 YEARS KORRES / 15 YEARS WILD ROSE

Wild Rose, a KORRES ‘trademark’ ingredient, and a ‘synonym’ of the Greek skincare brand’s history, is the main active of the first ever KORRES cosmetic product.

Still a global best-seller 15 years later, the Wild Rose 24-Hour Moisturising and Brightening Cream – the first ever 24-hour natural moisturising cream - was ‘born’ in 1996, like KORRES.

As part of the year-long anniversary, KORRES is revisiting its ‘classic’ formulation to introduce three new skincare products, all developed based on the benefits of Wild Rose; hydration and brightness alongside repairing action on fine lines and skin colour disorders, and exceptional moisturising properties due to its synergistic action with other natural extracts like Imperata cylindrical.

15mL/ 0.51Fl.Oz. AED 155

A smooth, brightening and moisturising eye cream that helps restore skin tone and texture around the eye area. Wild Rose oil is a natural source of vitamin C, which demonstrates significant repairing action on fine lines and skin colour disorders. A yeast extract increases the cellular oxygen consumption and improves microcirculation, thus decreasing dark circles, while natural derived betaine provides elasticity and strengthens the delicate skin around the eye area. Vitamins C and E offer potent antioxidant protection working against fine lines, while provitamin B5 enhances the cream’s moisturising action. With SPF 15 to protect against photo-ageing.

Contains: Wild Rose oil, yeast extract, betaine, vitamins C, E and B5, Ruscus extract, Jojoba oil

WHY WILD ROSE OIL?

Wild rose fruit is noted for its high vitamin C level that demonstrates significant repairing action on fine lines and pigmentation disorders. Furthermore, wild Rose oil, rich in linoleic and linolenic acid, offers significant moisturising, healing and softening properties. At the same time, it forms a protective film on the skin that helps the cell regeneration and improves the texture of the epidermis.
