KOLAFLAVONE - GARCINIA KOLA NUT (extract) • Shigeta

KOLAFLAVONE is the first certified organic patent ingredient that fights against the aging effects of skin glycation which include wrinkling, loss of firmness and dullness. It is both organic, so healthy for your skin but also extremely powerful : almost 3 times more effective than the leading chemical ingredients available like CARNOSINE.

What is glycation exactly ?

Glycation is a natural process that occurs in the body when proteins like collagen and elastin bind with sugar. This leads to toxins known as AGEs, which are irreversible and pollute the body. A healthy body is usually able to deal with AGEs but it can get out of hand when we are exposed to too much sugar, when we eat overcooked food or when we have too much stress which is more and more the case especially for city dwellers. Since SHIGETA is a pioneer for inside Detox treatments, our challenge was how to bring this Detox power directly to the skin.

How does KOLAFLAVONE work?

In 2 ways : first it protects the collagen and elastin in your skin from binding with sugar. Second, it detoxifies the proteins that have started the glycation process so they don’t turn into AGEs. We put KOLAFLAVONE in all our Awakening treatments which are already very rich in antioxydant ingredients like rose cells so you can have the best organic protection against premature skin aging.
