Wakame
Brown algae rich in proteins, minerals, lipids, and, above all, fucoxanthin, a compound that enhances the activity of UCP1, a protein present in adipose tissue, thereby increasing the rate of abdominal fat oxidation and facilitating weight loss and reduction of adipose deposits. The high iodine content enables a draining and hydrorententive effect.
Walnut, shells of
Medium-to-large granulated particles which, through frictional hand movements, promote ex-foliation and cellular renewal.
WarmComplex
Complex based on methyl nicotinate, which induces superficial hyperemia (a controlled in-crease in blood flow). The tissue undergoes localized blood perfusion, resulting in significant stimulation and revitalization.
Wheat Germ Oil
Rich in essential fatty acids (linoleic, oleic, and linolenic) and containing D-alpha tocopherol with antioxidant properties. A component with strong sebum affinity and well tolerated by the skin. Indicated for the treatment of sensitive skin due to its restorative and elasticizing properties.
White Clay
Smooths, decongests, and enriches the skin with mineral salts. By dermoaffine mechanism, it reduces the in-ternal temperature of the skin, thereby decreasing cutaneous inflammation.
White Lily
The extract of the bulbs exhibits emollient, soothing, and anti-inflammatory properties. Rich in bioactive compounds, it enhances the skin’s appearance and turgor.
White Tea
The pronounced anti-aging and antioxidant properties of white tea render it an excellent agent for protecting the skin against free radicals, which are partially generated through exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation.
WhitePeptide
An encapsulated biomimetic peptide capable of inhibiting tyrosinase activity and melanin syn-thesis. It reduces the appearance of hyperpigmentation and improves skin luminosity.
Witch Hazel, Extract of
An extract derived from leaves, highly enriched in tannins, exhibiting soothing, bacteriostatic, and astringent properties. The presence of flavonoids and phenols facilitates a decon-gestant effect while also mitigating capillary fragility.
