PERFECT FORMULA PYRAMIDTM
At Swissline, we believe in the endless self-recovery potential human skin has, and because of this we also believe that intelligent skincare should work with skin, never by-passing it.

CELLULAR YOUTH
Growth Factors
In our body, growth factors are naturally-occurring proteins with a very specific role – to repair and induce cell replication. These commands are typically given by the body after trauma, an open wound, abrasion or peeling; in other words, whenever an acceleration of new tissue building is imperative. READ MORE >>
Cellactel 2 Complex
Cell Shock’s signature ingredient, Cellactel 2 Complex is one of the brand’s secret weapons, alongside the skin’s own cellular youth agents, in the fight against environmental assaults. It is a nutri-revitalizer that helps repair essential functions, increase the cells’ access to vital oxygen, and regenerate the skin. READ MORE >>
SIGNS OF AGING
Collagen
The major building block in human skin, collagen is also the core protein that holds the entire body together. For this reason, it is a serious focus for us! The skin’s resilience, density and uniformity of surface all depend on it. READ MORE >>
Hyaluronic Acid
Naturally a key constituent in human skin, hyaluronic acid will undoubtedly remain one of the industry’s “it” ingredients (for once, only for the best reasons!). We use it in various formulas in the form of sodium hyaluronate for its restorative abilities to boost the skin’s moisture content. n READ MORE >>
Peptides
At Swissline, we have always been intrigued by peptides! They can be lab-built, structural blocks identical to various forms of the skin’s own proteins. This gives them skin-restorative capacities, not only as contributors to tissue density but also as “messengers” allowing the sending of signals between cells, to facilitate – or oppose! – specific metabolic paths. READ MORE >>
SOD
In skincare, SOD can be used as a key anti-aging ingredient because of its rocket-action in reducing and repairing free radical damage (we call it “the cell’s own” antioxidant!), thereby fighting fine lines and age spots. READ MORE >>
BOOST
AHAs / BHAs / PHAs
We group them all together since we like them all… and also like to mix them! At concentrations greater than 4% and in a base with a pH of 3 to 4, they exfoliate skin by breaking down the substance that holds dead cells together. READ MORE >>
Retinol
Retinol is THE star ingredient in the fight against the signs of aging skin. Of all signs, actually. It boosts collagen production and speeds cellular turnover, resulting in firmer, smoother, brighter more youthful-looking skin with smaller pores and more even pigmentation. READ MORE >>
BARRIER & DEFENSES
Ceramides
Often overlooked, ceramides make up most of skin’s barrier function, together with cholesterol and free fatty acids. Naturally present in the epidermis, ceramides are lipids with an amazing capacity to limit moisture loss and protect against damage from environmental stressors. READ MORE >>
Amino Acids
The building blocks of proteins, amino acids, are essential for almost all of the skin’s functions. There is no way skin can function without them. They help hydrate, repair, provide antioxidant protection, boost UV protection and smooth out texture. READ MORE >>
Antioxidants
Whether in foods, supplements or skincare, antioxidants pack a powerful punch; yet they are also the most unstable molecules, as anything – from light, to oxygen and water – can deactivate them! READ MORE >>
Vitamin C
A life saviour, it fends off the common cold, as well as illuminating and toning the complexion with additional antioxidant benefits. Less commonly known, it is also the most important vitamin involved in the synthesis of collagen; so when thinking vitamin C don’t think immediate radiance alone, think also long term firmness. READ MORE >>
Niacinamide
This is vitamin B3, while niacinamide (can also be written nicotinic acid) may not be the skincare ingredient everyone is buzzing about, it is most definitely a worthy skin-healer offering multiple benefits, particularly for skin suffering from visible signs of inflammation, rosacea and blemishes/seborrheic states. READ MORE >>
Pre/Probiotics
The new buzz-ingredient family in skincare is one of the oldest families in healthy foods – good bacteria! In a world where one’s health is so precarious, the defensive role of our microbiome, both internally and externally, seems to affirm that beauty can only come from good health. READ MORE >>
HYDRATION, ENERGY, UV PROTECTION. LOW INFLAMMATION.
NMF
This is mother nature’s own moisturizing “cream”. A complex ingredient naturally present in the skin, NMF (Natural Moisturizing Factor) keeps the outer layers of the skin protected and well-hydrated. READ MORE >>
ATP
Naturally found in the body, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a molecule of cellular energy and intercellular exchange. We are very passionate about ATP at Swissline, but maybe we just like this idea of re-charging the skin’s “batteries”? READ MORE >>
SPF
Since both UV-A and UV-B are harmful, you need protection from both. For optimum urban life protection we advise a broad-spectrum formula with a minimum SPF of 30, ideally higher. Nowadays at Swissline, we formulate only with SPF 45 or SPF 50. Are we clear about what we think the right levels are?! READ MORE >>
Madecassoside
This is our preferred ingredient when it comes to counteracting silent, chronic inflammation – often the price of contemporary life. Madecassoside is a pharmaceutical-grade fraction obtained from Centella asiatica, also known as “tiger herb”. READ MORE >>
