Tags:

2020: the Covid-19 pandemic has redefined our communication mode. From lockdown to social distancing, we had to adapt and change our social relationships, and the way we apprehend the world. Protect oneself became a prime concern, especially through wearing a mask, masking our emotions and our non-verbal communication, causing stress and fatigue.

Skin is not used to be mask-locked-down and reacts: redness, itching, dryness or maskne, seborrheic dermatitis, impetigo … the consequences vary.

3 Main Skin issues

  • Discomfort & Redness
  • Dry & Fragile Skin
  • “Maskne”

GREENTECH innovative solutions

As an expert in natural solutions and aware of skin reactions associated with the mask, GREENTECH offers innovative active ingredients to limit the mask-related adverse effects.


EXPOZEN®:
To relieve discomfort by targeting the bacterial strains that cause redness.

Natural active ingredient for sensitive and reactive skin, based on sulfated polysaccharides from Halymenia durvillei, a red alga living off the coast of Madagascar. EXPOZEN® rebalances microbiota of reactive & sensitive skin, especially reducing C. kroppenstedtii involved in inflammation and redness. It decreases neurogenic inflammation & sensitive skin symptoms: intensive soothing effect, reduction of redness, of heating and flushes sensations.

BIOTILYS®: To repair dry skin & boost skin innate immunity.

The skin carries out its protection against the hostile environment. Probiotics, by keeping the epidermal barrier intact, preserve the skin homeostasis. Acting as a short and long term global protector, BIOTILYS® increases skin innate immunity (antimicrobial peptides) and promotes cutaneous microbiotic balance, allows skin to withstand aggressions, and to keep a healthy and beautiful appearance. Skin barrier and moisturization are reinforced.

ACNILYS®: To limit seborrhea & virulent bacterial strains linked to acne breakout.

Natural active ingredient based on a molecule named Rhodomyrtone (well known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-microbial properties), balancing acne-prone skin microbiota by acting on C. acnes phylotypes and on the more virulent strain Cutibacterium granulosum. ACNILYS® also reduces seborrhea and inflammation, visibly improving overall skin appearance: less papules and redness, increased skin hydration and radiance.
