Decode your beauty formula

  • 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.

Instant Lifting

[Lfa] + [Lfb]

  • Presentation

    Replenishes the skin from the inside and restructure it outside for an immediate and prolonged tightening effect.

  • Mechanisms of action

    ➔ Formation of a network of exopolysaccharides on the skin surface:

    • for a lift via a tensor effect that smoothes and flattens the skin relief, 
    • for a filling of the furrows from the outside.
     

    ➔  Diffusion of hyaluronic acid deep into the epidermis which, once the surrounding water has been captured, swells and fills in the skin from the inside.

  • Clinical results

    [Lfa] Tensor Exopolysaccharides
    [Lfb] Encapsulated Hyaluronic Acid

    [Lfa]: Tensor Exopolysaccharides

    Marine Exopolysaccharide is produced by a planktonic micro-organism, originating from the Iroise Sea near Brest, on the coast of Brittany, France. Its high molecular weight allows it to have a particular affinity with the skin and gives it valuable surface properties to fill in wrinkles.

    ➔ In-Vivo :
    • Reduction of 8.7% on average and up to 17.5% of the roughness of crow's feet wrinkles from 15 min after application. 
    • Reduction of 9.9% on average and up to 18% in the dispersion of the cutaneous relief of crow's feet wrinkles from 15 minutes after application. 
    • Reduction of the main wrinkle by 16% after 15 minutes, 15% after 3 hours and 14.5% after 6 hours.
     
    [Lfb]: Encapsulated Hyaluronic Acid

    These filling spheres are made of low molecular weight hyaluronic acid and a konjac polysaccharide. They are crosslinked and dehydrated when they penetrate the epidermis, allowing them to be distributed in its different layers.

    ➔ In-Vitro :
    • The hyaluronic acid used once the water is captured occupies 6 times more volume than when they are dehydrated (filling effect)
    ➔ Ex-Vivo :
    • 10μm increase in the stratum corneum due to the filling effect

    After the age of 20, the skin’s natural aging process gets under way. The loss of elasticity, gravity, emotions and a whole host of other genetic and environmental factors cause the facial contours to progressively sag. Gradual up until the age of 40-50 years, this process tends to accelerate in women after menopause and over the age of 55. Sagging skin is generally treated with invasive and surgical techniques. Without claiming to be able to radically ‘lift’ the face, cosmetics nevertheless offer a relatively effective preventative and corrective means to redraw the facial contours.

    An instant micro-lifting effect is achieved through redensification of the skin and the creation of an invisible three-dimensional network at the skin’s surface to smoothen and tighten facial features. The contours of your face come back into focus and your skin glows.
