Created in 1998, it is the first moisturizing gel on the market. Its fresh, light texture is revolutionary. Inspired by the Asian treatments of the 90's, it evokes by its vitality the thermal springs. Moreover, this original treatment says to concentrate the equivalent of 5000 liters of thermal water in a pot.
The undisputed success of the Biotherm Aquasource Gel
Aquasource is sold every seven seconds in the world. A pot is equivalent to about 500 hours of hydration. This is favored by the plankton of life, the flagship ingredient of the brand and the product. From the thermal springs of the Pyrenees, it is cultivated by an exclusive biotechnological process, Fermogenesis. It contains 35 vital nutrients: vitamins, amino acids, carbohydrates, lipids, trace elements that help maintain the balance of the ecosystem on the surface of the skin.
Discovered by Dr. Jos Jullien in the 1950s, plankton life is now protected by twelve patents. This exclusive active protects the immune system of the skin through receptors. Indeed, its bacterium boosts some anti-inflammatory proteins, hence the success of the spa in the care of dermatological diseases.
The Benefits of Plankton Life on the Skin
The Plankton of Life soothes redness and tightness and protects the skin from aggressions. It boosts cell regeneration and promotes the multiplication and cohesion of keratinocytes. By stimulating an enzyme, MnSOD, it also strengthens the defenses of the skin. Recently, in 2011, Aquasource saw its formula evolve, since it was enriched with mannose, a vegetable sugar extracted from the birch pulp, to reinforce its moisturizing action. By 2015, its concentration in plankton even increases by 10%.
Lack of sleep, air conditioning, stress, pollution only increase the water loss of the skin. Aquasource Gel replaces the skin moisture level. This explains the appearance of the skin, its light and its freshness.
A whole range of care to protect the skin
Aquasource comes in several treatments: eye contour, night care, serum, highly nutritive creams, skin perfecteur and even BB cream. Today, it is the top-model Candice Swanepoel, native of South Africa, which embodies the freshness of this care. Gel Aquasource from Biotherm, 39 € the 50 ml.
