4 Essential Ingredients for Radiance

Biotechnology provides us with powerful natural active ingredients, allowing us to reinvent natural and organic cosmetics that are both sustainable and extremely effective. In this article, we've selected four super natural ingredients for a radiant complexion!

Why choose natural ingredients for your skin?

Today, natural cosmetics offer a range of highly effective ingredients that deliver targeted results while respecting skin health. Choosing natural and organic ingredients also means supporting agricultural sectors that preserve land, traditional skills, and local ecosystems. Labels, such as the Cosmos Organic certification we've chosen for HYLÉRIA skincare, help you identify products committed to this mission. Rich in plant oils, vitamins, minerals, and trace elements, natural formulas provide your skin with a wealth of nutrients and allow for a minimalist routine that maximizes effectiveness while promoting lasting beauty.

Our favorite ingredients for a natural glow

In 2025, natural ingredients continue to dominate cosmetic trends, with a focus on radiance, hydration, skin barrier protection, and well-aging . Four key active ingredients have become essential:

• Polyphenols : These powerful antioxidants are essential in 2025. They neutralize free radicals, reduce inflammation, and protect against environmental aggressors, providing an even and radiant complexion. In our HYLÉRIA routine, you'll find them in the "Art of Portraiture" and "Gentle Manner" ranges thanks to our organic witch hazel hydrosol . Their anti-aging and soothing properties enhance the purifying and toning effect of witch hazel, making it ideal for sensitive skin.

• Ceramide boosters : Ceramides, essential lipids of the skin barrier, are at the heart of your skin's structure, ensuring its suppleness, hydration, and repair. Our Xylitol Complex (xylitylglucoside, anhydroxylitol, xylitol) in La Manière Douce stimulates ceramide production, strengthening the skin barrier to retain moisture and prevent dryness. The result: plump, elastic skin, as observed by 95% of testers after 28 days.

• Antioxidants : essential active ingredients, antioxidants combat oxidative stress and boost radiance. Found in our organic thyme extract (La Manière Douce) and prickly pear pulp (L'Art du Portrait), they protect against pollution and UV rays, reduce dark spots, and brighten the complexion. Their synergy amplifies the brightening effects, with 95% of users noticing more luminous skin.

• Vitamins : there's a whole range of them in cosmetics, all with targeted nourishing effects. Our organic thyme extract and organic camelina oil (L'Art du Portrait) are rich in vitamins A (regenerating), B (hydrating), E (antioxidant), and K (soothing), promoting repair, hydration, and radiance. Their high concentration enhances their anti-aging and illuminating benefits.

These natural ingredients, used in synergy, offer us high-performance routines that respect both the skin and the environment.
