How Neurocosmetics Guide Your Brain With Better Skin


You often hear about the secrets of beauty from different parts of the world (see you, France and Morocco,) but new things from Poland should also be noticed. The latest in the beautysphere comes directly from Warsaw and is part of a growing, neurocosmetic phase. The Ethos of Last Skincare product looks beyond beauty as a portable tool and welcomes you as a way to improve your mood. Earlier, its founder Katarzyna Janocha shared how your brain can help you achieve your best skin.



What is the Polish beauty philosophy?

Polish beauty repertoire is all about healthy skin using natural products with high quality ingredients. “Most of us have a soft, sensitive complexion, and expect a lot when it comes to our products,” says Janocha. According to Janocha, culture also values ​​good mental health, and the experience of sensory beauty is important. "It's a competitive place, and you can't take anything out of the middle," he explained. "That's why I'm careful about getting into the industry."


What is Neurocosmetics?

Neurocosmetics is based on the idea that the brain and skin are connected and that emotions can affect your skin1. According to research, when certain active ingredients affect the nerves in the dermis, they can affect the human condition. "By directing the interaction between the skin and the nervous system, [neurocosmetics] can play a significant role in skin balance," says the study. “As this concept is still relatively new, we do not yet fully understand why certain ingredients affect the skin and the mind in a certain way,” says Janocha. "What we do know is that neurocosmetics are beneficial in dealing with anxiety such as dehydration and stress reduction."


Many ingredients (such as copaiba oleoresin and frankincense extract) have mood-enhancing benefits when applied to the skin. "This resin release contains a large number of beta-endorphins that interact with cannabinol receptors in the body to release beta-endorphins," explains Janocha. "Frankincense extract is also considered to be the most effective anti-inflammatory effect, proven to control cortisol and ultimately restore collagen."


Ingredients such as hemp and tephrosia purpurea are considered “heroes” by Janocha because they affect the nervous system while having anti-aging properties when they penetrate the skin.2 Rhodiola rosea root extract — one of Janocha's favorites — has been used for centuries. in Asian medicine for the treatment of anxiety, fatigue and depression. “We have learned that this powerful antioxidant stimulates the production of beta-endorphin to improve mood by reducing tension,” explains Janocha.


Janocha’s personal history of depression and its impact on his health inspired his approach to neurocosmetics. "In this difficult, post-epidemic world, I wanted to support everything that could improve human well-being," he explains.


What Makes the Last Skin Correction Different?

Final Skin Repair has a thought-provoking (and very diverse) ingredient drug, which includes aromatherapeutic components to play a role in improving mood. Janocha wanted to include things like vanilla lifting and lemongrass that reduce anxiety to enhance the feeling of skin care. “Inhaling these ingredients during application stimulates the nervous system, a set of structures in the brain that control emotions, and is closely related to the sense of smell,” he explains.


Trees have been used throughout history in traditional medicine, and in recent years, their benefits have been confirmed in international research. According to Janocha, his products contain ingredients extracted from amber, bark, roots, seeds, leaves, flowers and fruits of various plants. These components are composed of peptides, ceramides, coenzymes, vitamins, and bioferments including Janocha's Polish lab.


It was important for Janocha to get ingredients from around the world. "The seedlings of our plants are found mainly in the fields of Somalia, Ethiopia, Vietnam and India," he explained. "Copaiba balm is from Brazil, our stable vitamin C is from Japan, pure hydrosols from France, and many other ingredients come from Poland."


Final thoughts

The connection between beauty and health has become a sensible practice for many people, and the science of neurocosmetics seems promising too. Finally, if self-care is improving your emotional well-being you already have a good start. However, if your serum contains ingredients that make you happy and you try products — such as the Skin Removal Serum — it may be an extra perk. The brightly developed bright color, and the subtle endorphin acceleration may be the perfect alchemy for your missing system.
