The active

Paracress, at the concentration the science supports.

Paracress (Acmella oleracea) is a small flowering plant native to South America, used for centuries in traditional medicine for its natural muscle-relaxing properties.

In skincare, its active compound Spilanthol has been examined in clinical research for its ability to gently moderate the micro-contractions of underlying facial muscles, which over time deepen into the wrinkles around your eyes, mouth, and jaw.

Parācress™ is formulated at 5% Acmella oleracea extract, the concentration used in clinical studies assessing Paracress as a topical anti-ageing ingredient. In those studies, visible improvement in wrinkle depth in periorbital and perioral areas was observed after 14 days of twice-daily application.

What to expect

A subtle smoothing effect, building over weeks.

On first application, most people notice a subtle smoothing effect. This is partly Pullulan, a naturally derived ingredient that forms a light film on the skin's surface, and partly Spilanthol beginning to do its work beneath it.

With consistent use over days and weeks, skin tends to appear firmer and have a more even texture. Results build gradually and vary between individuals.

Moisturise

Apply one pump morning and evening to thoroughly cleansed skin, before your moisturiser. Press gently into areas where you'd like to see the most improvement, around the eyes, mouth, jawline, neck, or décolletage. Consistency matters with Paracress. Give it at least 14 days before forming a view.
