Description
InstaTens – Natural Perfector for Instant Lifting Effect and "Real-Life Filter" Smoothing
InstaTens is a state-of-the-art cosmetic active, an eco-designed "flash perfector," obtained from concentrated polysaccharides (galactomannans) extracted from the seeds of Gleditsia triacanthos (Honey Locust). It acts by forming a 3D biopolymeric network on the skin's surface that retracts rapidly, mechanically tightening and smoothing the skin tissue. The result is a visible minimization of wrinkles and under-eye bags in just a few minutes, providing the complexion with an impeccable appearance, comparable to a digital filter, but in real life.
