Biretix’s active ingredients

RetinSphere® Technology

A patented retinol complex developed by Cantabria Labs that increases cell renewal whilst maintaining excellent skin tolerance

BIOPEP-15

A botanical, anti-microbial peptide that helps to reduce spot-causing bacteria

Glycolic acid

An alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that exfoliates the skin’s surface, helping to unblock pores, smooth skin, and reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation

Salicylic acid

A beta hydroxy acid (BHA) that penetrates the skin, increasing exfoliation helping to prevent the formation of spots

Niacinamide

A form of vitamin B3 with oil-regulating, antimicrobial, skin brightening and soothing properties

Essential Biretix Regime

The essential Biretix routine includes the Biretix Cleanser (Purify), the powerful Tri-Active Anti-Blemish Gel (Treat), and the Hydramat Fluid, a triple-hydration, mattifying moisturiser (Care). Let’s take a closer look at each step.

STEP 1: PURIFY – Bireitx Cleanser

A gentle cleanser that gets deep into the skin to control oil and remove spot-causing bacteria. BIOPEP-15 is paired with aloe vera and other botanicals to soothe the skin and reduce redness.

STEP 2: TREAT - Tri-Active Anti-Blemish Gel

A potent combination of RetinSphere® Technology, BIOPEP-15, and glycolic and salicylic acid, this gel clears away bacteria and dead skin cells and increases cell renewal. The salicylic acid also works with niacinamide to reduce inflammation and oil production, and soothe the skin.

STEP 3: CARE - Hydramat Fluid

This triple-effect moisturiser was designed to hydrate the skin for up to 72 hours. In addition to providing both instant and long-lasting hydration, it will regulate oil production, helping to mattify the skin and prevent the formation of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). Additional vitamin E helps protect against pollution and free radicals.

For those looking to take their routine a step further, you can enhance your Biretix regime with a micro peel or mask, as well as additional anti-blemish spray.

Due to the active ingredients used within the Biretix range, it’s important to wear broad-spectrum sun protection daily. Add a Heliocare 360° sunscreen to your routine to protect your skin. The Oil-Free Gel or Color Oil-Free Gel (available in Bronze and Beige) would be great add-ons to the Biretix regime.

Endocare – advanced anti-ageing product line

Endocare is a range of anti-ageing products. It is based on exclusive patented technologies, including SCA BioRepair and and EDAFENCE Technology. These innovative technologies work together to create unique products that are clinically proven to regenerate and repair dermal structures, visibly improving the signs of skin ageing for firmer, smoother, more radiant-looking skin.

Endocare Radiance C Ferulic EDAFENCE Serum

Suitable for all skin types, this super-serum starts with EDAFENCE, a revolutionary anti-pollution technology that’s clinically proven to provide long-lasting protection against damage caused by pollution, sunlight, tobacco smoke and other environmental stressors.

Together with antioxidant vitamin C and ferulic acid, it will brighten and smooth your complexion, while additional growth factors in SCA® BioRepair Technology encourage an increase in collagen and elastic to plump and firm the skin.

Any Heliocare 360° daily sunscreen would be a great addition to your skincare regime alongside the C-Ferulic Serum as they protect the skin for free radical damage caused by daylight. However a particularly great pairing for this would be the Heliocare 360° A-R Emulsion as this helps to reduce redness and sensitivities which can be triggered by oxidative stress as a result of free-radical damage.

Endocare expert drops

Endocare Expert Drops are lightweight, highly potent serum duos clinically proven to work in conjunction to target three aspects of ageing skin: pigmentation, loss of firmness, and dryness.

Each unique serum can be worked into your usual morning and evening skincare regimes, and can be applied on its own or mixed into products you already use. Let’s take a closer look at each one.
