INCI: Water, Betula Alba Juice, Glycerin, Niacinamide, Sodium Hyaluronate, Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide
Reveal your most youthful, glowing skin with rBoost NAD+, a dynamic powerhouse to combat the hallmarks of aging. The star of this show is Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+), a revolutionary molecule, widely recognized for its numerous benefits for longevity both inside and out. As we age, our natural NAD+ levels decline, which has been associated with aging. For our skin, this decline can lead to uneven skin tone, wrinkles, fine lines, and loss of elasticity in your skin. With this hero molecule, an increase of local levels of NAD+ within the skin cells can be achieved to aid in skin repair, anti-aging benefits, and improve cellular function. NAD+ is further boosted with its synthetic precursor, Nicotinamide, to convert additional NAD+ once absorbed by the skin cells. This double dose of longevity also paired with Nordic Birch Sap water from Finland and Sodium Hyaluronate provides an extra boost of hydration, leaving the skin revitalized.
Efficacious active complexes
HyloGlo™ HA contains five different molecular weights of hyaluronic acid to deliver moisturization at all skin levels. This complex contains a mixture of high, medium, and low molecular weights to provide benefits such as immediate surface-level moisturization, improved skin volume and density, and even helps with reducing the appearance of wrinkles. Polyglutamic Acid is also used to provide even more moisturization by keeping the skin plump, smooth, and hydrated.
HyloGlo™ PHA utilizes gluconolactone and lactobionic acid as the main polyhydroxy acids. The PHAs function by providing a gentle exfoliation that results in an improvement in skin complexion. Mandelic acid contains the largest molecular size out of the AHA category. Due to its large size, it exhibits low irritation potential while simultaneously delivering high exfoliation activity. Both the aspartic acid and pseudoalteromonas exopolysaccharides provide the moisturizing and conditioning action.
HyloGlo™ Rice is composed of hydrolyzed rice protein, which serves as the main conditioning active due to its natural positive charge. This charge allows the hydrolyzed rice protein to have an antistatic effect and improved wet and dry combability. Caulerpa Lentillfera Extract, also known as green caviar, is a plant based, marine originated active that provides essential hydration and shine to dry and damaged hair. It also increases the firmness of the skin by enhancing the action of Laminin-5 and Collagen IV, which attaches between the upper and lower skin levels.
HyloGlo™ Oat is composed of hydrolyzed oat protein, which serves as the main conditioning active due to its natural positive charge. This charge allows the hydrolyzed oat protein to have an antistatic effect and improved wet and dry combability due to the presence of L-cysteine and keratin. Leontopodium Alpinum Extract, also known as the Edelweiss flower, has been shown to increase hair thickness while lessening hair loss and improving pigmentation.
HyloGlo™ Xantine plays an important role in normalizing the adipose tissue. Ingredients such as caffeine have been well known for increasing circulation and promoting lipase enzymatic activity by stimulating cAMP. Both theophylline and theobromine stimulate beta-adrenergic receptors and can release fatty acids from adipocytes, resulting in a decreased appearance of cellulite. Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract provides this complex with a natural source of caffeine, theobromine, and theophylline.
Natural vegan collagen
Acacia Senegal Gum is functioning as the hero ingredient in this complex by mimicking the benefits of animal-derived collagen. It has been shown that acacia gum is beneficial in terms of skin hydration and barrier function. This 100% natural and sustainable gum can be incorporated into cosmetic products while complying with vegan claims.
The Nordic mushroom complexes
Imparts deep penetration throughout the epidermis and dermis, resulting in an increase of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid production. The chaga, tremella, and cordyceps mushrooms work synergistically to accelerate skin regeneration while simultaneously imparting long-lasting moisturization.
Nature’s answer to combat dark spots and uneven skin tone. Shiitake, turkey tail, and sea fennel unite to inhibit tyrosinase activity, resulting in lighter and brighter skin.
Rich in beta-glucans, amino acids, and key vitamins and minerals that are essential to healthy skin. These adaptogenic mushrooms provide natural antioxidants that help protect your skin from everyday stressors responsible for free radical generation.
Microbiome and mushroom complex ideal for scalp maintenance. This complex simultaneously exfoliates and reduces scalp oiliness while providing vitamins and minerals that are essential for healthy hair.

Berry oils
Sea buckthorn oil
Hippophaë rhamnoides
Because of its high omega-7 and vitamin A content, the oil extracted from this berry is the ultimate tissue healer. Used externally to even skin tone and texture as well as to improve skin issues such as acne or eczema, it also reduces the signs of aging while reducing the appearance of wrinkles and boosting collagen production. Sea-buckthorn oil is a perfect ingredient in skin creams and other cosmetic products.
When ingested, omega-7 also soothes inflammation and lubricates the gastrointestinal tract to ease pain and irritation and improve waste removal whilst soothing irritation caused by alcohol and medications. Its high level of vitamin A helps build strong bones, protect eyesight, prevent kidney stones and boost immunity.
It is important, however, to know which sea-buckthorn oil to buy. It is crucial to find the oil with the highest percentage of omega-7, which depends greatly on the place the berries have been harvested.
Oils containing at least 30 per cent guarantee the highest values this berry brings and that it has not been diluted with other oils. Note that the majority of sea-buckthorn’s omega-7 content is found in the berry, so the seed oil is no substitute.
Cloudberry oil
Rubus chamaemorus
Cloudberry seed oil contains omega-3 and omega 6-fatty acids to help skin retain moisture. Indeed, cloudberry is to soothe and protect all skin types, especially those prone to dryness and sensitivity, as well as calm an irritable scalp. These omegas fatty acids bump up against a host of other skin heroes in the oil. Cloudberry is also one of the best sources of ellagic tannins, which have antioxidant and skin-brightening properties – not to mention beta-carotene, which is transformed into retinol by enzymes in the skin. if you want a flawless glow and to improve cell turnover, pigmentation and fine lines, cloudberry oil is the place to start.
