Decode your beauty formula
and embrace your personal needs
  • 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.

Puffiness

[Pca] + [Pcb]

  • Presentation

    Reduces the volume of under-eye pouches by relieving congestion and restoring elasticity to skin tissue to smooth the skin around the eyes.

  • Mechanisms of action

    ➔  Decrease of the volume of the eye bags by decongestion and drainage:

    • Improved lymphatic circulation to evacuate already formed edema. 
    • Reduction of capillary permeability to minimize future water/lymph leakage.
     

    ➔  Fight against skin slackening under the eye leading to the formation of pockets of slackening:

    • by stimulation of ATP synthesis offering a tensor effect on the network of collagen fibers and by inhibition of glycation phenomena ("caramelization" weakening the collagen fibers) 
    • by improving elasticity 
    • by protection and prevention of skin slackening
  • Clinical results

    [Pca] Oligoalginate Enriched Seawater
    [Pcb] Draining Tetrapeptide

    [Pca]: Oligoalginate Enriched Seawater
    It's an association of seawater enriched with energizing metabolites (manufactured by microalgae before filtration) and high molecular weight oligoalginate which forms a second skin on the surface of the epidermis to better diffuse the enriched seawater.

    ➔ In-Vitro :
    • 20% increase in ATP synthesis 
    • 78% increase in protection against skin slackening

    ➔ In-Vivo, after 28 days of use :
    • 30% increase in the firmness of the pocket 
    • 14% reduction in roughness > 11% reduction in fine lines 
    • Up to 24% reduction in the volume of bags 
    • Up to 32% reduction in fine lines 
    • 40% improvement in the tired appearance of the eyes 
    • 50% improvement in the youthfulness of the eyes
     
    [Pcb]: Draining Tetrapeptide
    This tetrapeptide has anti-edema properties to prevent tissue swelling. It also improves elasticity to reduce puffiness in the long term.

    ➔ In-Vitro :
    • Inhibition of collagen glycation leading to a decrease in firmness and elasticity of the dermis 
    • Prevention of the accumulation of liquid in the eyes by inhibition of vascular permeability

    ➔ In-Vivo :
    • Significant reduction of bags after 14 days 
    • 30% increase in skin elasticity in 30 days 
    • 70% of volunteers had a decrease in the volume of bags after 28 days

    The appearance of pouches under the eyes is one of the first signs of ageing. It happens as a result of two phenomena. The first is a change in capillary integrity: the capillary walls become more permeable, resulting in water leakage. The second is reduced effectiveness of the lymphatic system, which eliminates toxins: the lymphatic system becomes less capable of draining skin tissue, resulting in swelling (oedema). 

     

    To reduce the volume of under-eye pouches, water leakage must be eliminated and its reabsorption increased. To do this, the permeability of the capillaries must be reduced, followed by a decongesting and draining action. Finally, a biostimulating action to restore elasticity to the skin around the eyes smoothes and firms the skin, thereby reducing the volume of under-eye pouches.
