Skin Tightener ST™ is a botanical complex ingredient for immediate tightening, lifting, and firming effects. It helps promote firmness and elasticity.
Skin Tightener ST™ is a marine and plant-derived film-forming agent and a non-animal alternative to serum album; it enhances skin smoothness and radiance. It is based on the association of marine polymannuronate (derived from algae) and prolamines.
It smoothes the skin and makes it more radiant-looking. These benefits were proven in a sensory evaluation in which panelists assessed the tightening effects of a gel containing Skin Tightener ST™.
