What if the skin could actively activate its natural resistance to aging itself? This is where the ingredient Timelys®, derived from Schisandra berry extract, comes into play. Discover how this innovative active ingredient stimulates longevity genes and strengthens the skin from within.
What is Timelys®?
Timelys® is an innovative slow-aging active ingredientderived from Schisandra berry extract (Schisandra Chinensis Fruit Extract). This exceptional berry has been valued in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries as "Wu WeiZi" – the "berry of five flavors." The name reflects its unique combination of sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and spicy notes. Timelys® uses the valuable schisandrin and organic acids (lignans) to protect the skin from oxidative stress and promote its natural resilience.
The Schisandra Berry – A Botanical Specialty
Schisandra chinensis is a climbing plant from the star anise family (Schisandraceae) that can grow up to 9 meters tall. From April to May, it produces delicate white to pink flowers, which develop into bright red clusters of berries from late summer to autumn. The plant prefers shady, moist spots in forests and grows wild mainly in the mountainous regions of Northeast China, Korea, and the Russian Far East. In traditional medicine, it has been used for over 2,000 years to promote vitality, endurance, and longevity.
How Timelys® protects the skin and has a rejuvenating effect
Timelys® unfolds its slow-aging effect at the cellular level by activating so-called longevity genes. These genes act as natural protective mechanisms of skin cells and can control oxidative stress and inflammatory reactions. At the same time, Timelys® is able to neutralize free radicals.
Furthermore, Timelys® protects against collagen breakdown and can strengthen the skin barrier. This makes the skin noticeably firmer, smoother, and helps it maintain its natural protective function.
