Uvè Line, based on Vitis Vinifera Leaf Extract

The Vitis Vinifera, commonly known as Red Vine due to the color of its leaves, is a climbing plant that belongs to the Vitaceae family, native to Southern Europe and Western Asia. Cultivated worldwide mainly for wine production, it is also found in Italy and the Piedmont Langhe, where it leads to the production of the prestigious Barolo, a red wine appreciated internationally. All parts of the Vitis Vinifera are used, without completely depriving oneself of any of them, starting precisely from the leaves, which offer the highest content of active ingredients after the harvest: the period in which they acquire the reddish color that characterizes the plant.

Extracted from the leaves of the Red Vine, the Vitis Vinifera Leaf Extract has several properties, which are the basis of various cosmetic products made by LeLang. All in the name of a precious local and sustainable raw material, enhanced by glass containers, a material capable of not releasing chemical or harmful substances that would otherwise compromise the formulations.

The botanical characteristics of the Red Vine

The Red Vine is a shrub with a climbing stem that can reach heights of up to 20-30 meters. The bark is dark brown, while the color of the branches ranges from brown-yellowish to brown-reddish.

 The leaves, the part most commonly used in cosmetics, are rounded and have a number of lobes equal to three or five. Particularly beautiful are the flowers, which are found clustered in spikes opposite the leaves.

The fruits are oval berries gathered in clusters whose color is not necessarily red but can also be almost black, green, or yellow. The juicy pulp contains up to 1-4 seeds that are pear-shaped and woody, used like the leaves in the cosmetic field.

Vitis Vinifera Leaf Extract: properties

The Extract of Red Vine Leaves or Vitis Vinifera Leaf Extract has particular properties that are of absolute interest for cosmetics. For this reason, LeLang has chosen to include it among the ingredients of its products. Going into more detail, the Red Vine Extract shows high percentages of antioxidant molecules such as tannins, polyphenols, anthocyanins, stilbenes, and bioflavonoids. These are substances that provide an excellent protective action against free radicals on facial cells, which cause oxidative stress and significant damage to the cells. Free radicals are formed due to the action of UV rays, smoke, and pollution. They degrade the fatty acids present in the skin, altering the structure of collagen. Therefore, it is essential to counteract their action with an adequate lifestyle and the right cosmetic products.

The Vitis Vinifera Leaf Extract is used in cosmetics, and LeLang products are no exception, for the formulation of anti-aging face treatments and creams, with emollient and restorative action. The Red Vine Extract improves circulation within the tissues, combats dehydration and water retention, and is able to reduce the harmful effects of photo-aging. It relates perfectly to different skin types, particularly dull and sensitive skin, to which it gives new radiance. For optimal application, it is advisable to perform gentle movements from the top down.

The LeLang products made with Vitis Vinifera Leaf Extract

The products LeLang that feature the action of Vitis Vinifera Leaf Extract are those of the Uvè Line, which began the Lelang story, started with the desire to find natural and sustainable ingredients capable of giving a special beauty to the epidermis.

The Uvè Line is based precisely on red vine and red vine stem cells, ingredients that make it a revolutionary line with antioxidant and protective action. LeLang combines them with other quality elements such as hyaluronic acid, Vitamin C, and Amplified Argirelines. Solutions that effectively counteract free radicals, ensuring hydration and radiance of the skin, giving it the optimal tone.

The Perlage face cream with Vitamin E microspheres

The Perlage face cream by LeLang is simply a concentrate of well-being for the skin. Its composition is based on Red Vine Extract, Amplified Argireline, Hyaluronic Acid, Bisabolol, and Vitamin C, which blend well with the innovative Vitamin E microspheres. These are capable of gently dissolving upon contact with the skin, ensuring a prolonged and gradual protective effect.

The Crema Perlage offers a moisturizing, antioxidant, lifting, and protective action. It is suitable for different skin types, including those with high sensitivity. A cream whose effects can be enjoyed throughout the day, with the assurance of having skin in the morning that feels soft and fresh, hydrated even during the other hours of the day.

 To ensure maximum effectiveness, it is recommended to apply twice a day, morning and evening on clean, dry skin, even around the eyes, gently massaging until fully absorbed. The effects will be anti-aging and enhanced in terms of skin brightness.

Vitis Eyes Contour: the illuminating eye contour with lifting effect

The other product from the Uvè Line by LeLang that proves to be particularly interesting is Vitis Eyes Contour, an illuminating eye contour with a lifting effect. Its formula features the action of two special peptides in a synergistic and combined manner.

The first is Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 and has an action similar to that of a botulinum toxin, allowing for a reduction in the visibility of expression wrinkles. The second is Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5 and is capable of improving lymphatic drainage, resulting in a reduction of puffiness and bags under the eyes. Both have an anti-aging effect, countering the visible effects of aging, including wrinkles and expression lines that tend to form over time around the eyes and on the forehead.

The result is that of a regained brightness and a better skin tone. To achieve maximum effectiveness, Vitis Eyes Contour should be applied to cleansed and dry skin around the eyes morning and evening, gently massaging until fully absorbed. It is perfect for contact with all skin types, including the most sensitive ones, which it manages to deeply hydrate, giving a harmonious and beautiful appearance. A true assurance for today's women, including those who find themselves straining the skin around their eyes while working for several hours on the computer.
