Cutanat®

Cutanat® Acne is often associated with a symbolic and unavoidable rite of passage that most teenagers face. According to studies, it can affect as many as 3 out of 4 teenagers. However, acne should not be seen as an unavoidable fate of this stage of life. Moreover, did you know that one in 3 adults continues to be affected by hormonal acne? It is in fact likely that you know someone, whether directly or indirectly, who is affected by this situation. So, although it usually disappears once hormones stabilise after adolescence, acne can still persist or return in adulthood, with a female predominance. It would affect not only more than 3 out of 4 teenagers, but also 50 % of women in their twenties, a third of those in their thirties and a quarter of those in their forties. CUTANAT®, AN INNOVATIVE AND COMPREHENSIVE SUPPLEMENT FOR HEALTHY, CLEAR SKIN CUTANAT® is a complete synergy based on plants (Centella – Centellicum®, burdock, wild pansy, sabal), vitamins and minerals (A, B6, D3, E and zinc), designed to improve skin health, as well as to promote lasting skin balance. CUTANAT® acts on several factors such as hormonal activity, toxin accumulation, hyperseborrhoea, hyperkeratinisation, bacterial proliferation, inflammation and the appearance of the skin. √ Sabal ( Serenoa repens ), also called saw palmetto, is a small palm tree whose benefits were quickly put to use in the history of traditional medicine due to its richness in lipid-sterolic active compounds. √ Wild pansy helps maintain healthy, clear skin. It also helps combat skin problems. √ Burdock helps maintain healthy skin and helps improve the health and appearance of the skin. It also facilitates the body's elimination functions. √ Centella ( Centella asiatica ), or tiger grass, is an annual herbaceous plant native to Asia and Oceania. It has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and is one of the « miraculous elixirs of life » known more than 2000 years ago. It has also been used in Ayurvedic tradition for thousands of years for skin issues. √ Centellicum® is a patented extract of Centella asiatica with clinically demonstrated effects. √ Vitamin A and zinc contribute to the maintenance of normal skin. √ Vitamin B6 contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity. √ Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system. √ Vitamin E and zinc contribute to protecting cells from free radicals (oxidative stress). WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF SKIN PROBLEMS? It is very important to pay attention to your lifestyle by putting in place a few very simple hygiene and dietary measures: √ Limit consumption of foods rich in saturated fats (butter, cheese, fatty meats, crisps…) which can negatively affect the lipid quality of sebum. √ Favour foods with a low to moderate glycaemic load, which may help reduce the number of acne lesions. √ Favour an anti-inflammatory diet by limiting dairy products, chocolate and sources of omega-6 (grape seed oil, sunflower seeds…). √ There is no need to cleanse your skin excessively or with overly harsh products. Favour gentle skincare specially formulated for acne-prone skin (alcohol-free, fragrance-free…). √ Skin can be made up, provided non-comedogenic products are used that will not suffocate the epidermis, and provided make-up tools are kept clean (brushes, sponges…). Make-up should be removed every day. √ Avoid touching spots to limit the risk of superinfection and scarring. √ Avoid exposure to environmental toxins (tobacco, pollution…). √ Do not neglect the impact of stress, which is a major factor aggravating skin problems.
