  • The Decoder by CODAGE is a series of information sheets that allow you to better diagnose your needs, understand your skin’s metabolism and, above all, get to know every active ingredient in the collection.

    An intelligent approach to active cosmetics that allows you to truly understand your skin and take good care of it, effectively and simply…

  • Nutri-Elements are the foundation of the CODAGE visual identity, and are «cocktail» of an average of 3 active ingredients with a synergistic action.
    Most Nutri-Elements are available in 3 concentrations (3-max, 2-med, 1-min) to ensure a perfectly calibrated formula.

    Given specific skin needs, nutri-elements are dosed and assembled to form a unique «codage» and to reveal the product formula.
    CODAGE continually updates the composition of its Nutri-Elements based on research to offer the best in innovative active cosmetics.

Detoxifying

[Dxa] + [Dxb]

  • Presentation

    Stimulates the natural mechanisms of detoxification for a healthy and purified skin.

  • Mechanisms of action

    Reinforcement of the activity of the cells' natural detoxification systems:

    • Removal and recycling of damaged proteins and other cellular debris through stimulation of the proteasomal system (removing defective proteins). Allows mitochondrial detoxification. 
    • Elimination of toxins already formed thanks to the glyoxalase system, a set of enzymes that recycle them into components useful for skin metabolism.

     

    Results: increased energy and cell viability, reduced signs of skin fatigue for a purified and healthy skin.

  • Clinical results

    [Dxa]: Red Jania Algae Extract
    Jania" comes from the Latin Janus, the double-headed god of Roman mythology, guardian of the house of the gods. "Rubens" means red in color. Jania Rubens is a calcified algae with a very slow growth. It is quite rare and represents a kind of tree of life in its ecosystem where its calcified structure shelters a large number of microscopic species.

    Detoxification consists of eliminating harmful elements from the body. These toxic elements include denatured proteins, which are no longer functional, and toxins naturally produced by the body. At the same time, the skin is also exposed to toxic environmental elements such as pollution, cigarette smoke and certain foods and drinks that we consume every day. Our cells have effective repair and removal systems to fight against the effects of these harmful elements. Yet, when these systems are overloaded, toxic elements end up being stored in the cells, weakening our immune system. 

    The body – and the skin’s metabolism along with it – experiences a ‘power shortage’, becoming more vulnerable to aggressions and ageing. Two approaches allow us to purify our skin and eliminate toxins: on the one hand, protecting and strengthening the cellular systems involved in our detoxification mechanisms; and, on the other, increasing the cells’ level of energy to improve their effectiveness.
