Glow Protocol

Want your skin to look rested and fresh even without highlighter? Glow is an even complexion, a uniform tone and smooth, hydrated skin that reflects light. Glow Protocol builds it from within: a complete set of natural plant carotenoids (astaxanthin, lycopene, phytoene, phytofluene, lutein, zeaxanthin) in sea buckthorn oil rich in rare omega-7, a fatty acid that nourishes the skin and strengthens its barrier. The same ingredients work as an antioxidant shield: they protect skin cells from ageing, so the glow you build today stays with you for years.

up to -41.4%³fine lines around the eyes
A clinical study on 50 women aged 35-55 taking one soft gel with 15 mg of lycopene daily for 12 weeks. Wrinkles were assessed by imaging of the eye area at weeks 0, 4 and 12. After 4 weeks fine lines around the eyes were up to 25% shallower, after 12 weeks up to 41.4% (p < 0.001).
up to -26%³deep lines around the eyes
The same group of 50 women aged 35-55, 15 mg of lycopene daily for 12 weeks. Deep lines around the eyes were up to 14.8% shallower after 4 weeks and up to 26% after 12 weeks. In parallel, skin texture improved by 10.8% and firmness by 14.4%.
up to +13.5%³skin lightness
In the same study, after 12 weeks on 15 mg of lycopene daily, skin brightness and luminosity rose by up to 7.9% after 4 weeks and up to 13.5% after 12 weeks (p < 0.001), in expert grading of standardised photographs.
up to +18.3%³tone evenness
A clinical study on 50 women aged 35-55 taking 15 mg of lycopene daily for 12 weeks. Tone evenness was graded by an expert from standardised photographs: up to 11.14% better after 4 weeks and up to 18.3% after 12 weeks (p < 0.001).

up to -11.9%³intensity of dark spots

The physics of glow. Skin radiance is a biological-optical phenomenon that arises on two levels. At the surface, light reflects evenly and luminously only when the epidermal barrier is healthy, intact and well hydrated. A weakened barrier scatters light instead of reflecting it, leaving the complexion dull. Deeper down, in tissue optimally saturated with pigments, the reflected light takes on a warm, golden tone.

Two levels, one system. The formula works on both levels at once. The epidermal barrier is nourished by a bioactive multi-complex of omega acids from sea buckthorn, supporting the conditions for even light reflection at the surface. Deeper, a full spectrum of carotenoids with astaxanthin builds the complexion and its evenness, while protecting collagen in the dermis.

A protocol, not a supplement. This is a designed, synergistic system, not a list of ingredients. Each element plays a defined role, and together they work across two time horizons: radiance built and visible day to day, and protection that compounds over time.

Inside every Glow Protocol capsule is an advanced, standardized blend of biocomponents that amplify one another at the cellular level.

Omegia® - The foundation radiance stands on.

Clinical study results

up to +49%¹skin hydration

up to +26%¹skin elasticity

up to -14%²surface microroughness

up to -15%²visible pores

A certified organic oil extract from sea buckthorn seeds and berries, sourced from the ultra-clean regions of the Tibetan Plateau, delivering a balanced complex of multi-omega acids (3-6-7-9), including the rare, hard-to-source omega-7, together with other natural bioactive substances (beta-carotene, vitamin E, phytosterols). It nourishes the epidermal barrier, smoothing its surface and supporting its capacity to hold water. In the formula it serves both as an active ingredient and as the matrix in which the remaining lipophilic actives are dissolved.

The epidermal barrier holds an important place in the idea of skin longevity. It is the foundation of the skin’s ability to withstand external influences over time. The better it is maintained, the slower the secondary consequences of its weakening progress: dryness, sensitivity, loss of resilience to environmental factors, intensifying inflammation.

Lycomato® - The concentrated power of tomato bioactives.

Clinical study results

up to -51%³visible fine lines

up to +18.3%³tone evenness

up to +13.5%³skin lightness

up to -38%⁴erythema after UV

A standardized extract from ripe, red tomatoes, containing a synergistic complex of lycopene together with its naturally occurring companion carotenoids - phytoene and phytofluene - and other bioactive substances. Lycopene is one of the strongest natural substances at neutralizing singlet oxygen, one of the most aggressive forms of oxygen. In the skin it accumulates both in the epidermis and in the deeper dermis, where among other things it protects against UV-induced collagen breakdown and other aging processes. Phytoene and phytofluene, the colorless relatives of lycopene, absorb UV radiation (phytoene in the UVB range, phytofluene in the UVA) and as antioxidants support the skin’s natural resilience to the sun.

Lyc-O-Lutein® - An inner light filter.

Clinical study results

up to +38%⁵skin hydration

up to -55%⁵lipid peroxidation

A standardized extract from the petals of the marigold flower (Tagetes erecta), containing natural lutein and zeaxanthin - synergistic yellow carotenoids in the biologically optimal 5:1 ratio. These are the same compounds the eye accumulates in the macula lutea as a natural filter of high-energy blue light (HEV). The skin uses the same protective mechanism. Lutein and zeaxanthin also take part in building a healthy complexion, and thanks to their unique structure they anchor into the cell membrane at an angle, protecting it in places inaccessible to other antioxidants.

Algamo® - A premium-strength natural antioxidant for skin longevity.

Clinical study results

6000×⁷stronger than vitamin C at quenching singlet oxygen

550×⁷stronger than vitamin E

Certified organic astaxanthin in its natural form, sourced from Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae. In laboratory tests astaxanthin neutralizes singlet oxygen up to 6000× more effectively than vitamin C and 550× more effectively than vitamin E⁷. It owes this to its unique structure: it spans the entire cell membrane, reaching both its outer, aqueous surface and its inner, lipid core at once, whereas a typical antioxidant works in only one of those environments.

At the molecular level it activates the Nrf2 pathway (described in science as a regulator of healthy cellular aging), modulates FOXO3 (one of only two genes with a confirmed influence on human longevity) and supports mitochondrial function⁸.

*NRV - Nutrient Reference Value. "-" means no reference value established.

Dosage. Take 2 capsules in the morning, during or right after a meal, with water. Ideally the meal should be rich in healthy fats. All key ingredients (carotenoids, astaxanthin, omega acids) are fat-soluble and need dietary fat for full activation and maximum bioavailability.

Softgel technology. The liquid oil matrix is sealed in an airtight capsule that eliminates oxygen exposure and protects the delicate carotenoids and polyunsaturated Omega acids from oxidation, guaranteeing the highest bioactive potential throughout use.

Youth and the Golden Glow

Although the beauty market has for decades focused on wrinkles as the main marker of a youthful appearance, scientific research shows that the human eye subconsciously judges the health, vitality and age of another person based on the complexion and evenness of the skin tone.

Evolutionary psychology and the psychology of perception confirm it unequivocally: a subtle, golden hue built from within the cells is perceived as the healthiest and most attractive, the so-called "golden glow"¹⁰.

An even complexion is one of the most important parameters of a youthful appearance. Research has shown that an even skin tone, regardless of the presence of wrinkles, can lower the perceived age of a face by as much as 20 years¹¹.

An international consensus of dermatologists and aesthetic physicians defines skin quality through four key perceptual categories: firmness, surface evenness, tone evenness and radiance¹².

Glow Protocol addresses all four categories at once.

Day 1-14: Saturation

Carotenoids and omega acids absorb together with a meal and their level in the blood serum rises. In clinical studies this stage was confirmed by blood testing, before anything was visible on the skin. The change is already real, but for now measurable only in the lab.

Week 4: First measurable change

This is the first measurement point of the clinical studies. Fine lines around the eyes are up to 25% shallower³, skin lightness rises by up to 7.9%³, dark spots fade by up to 4.8%³, texture improves by up to 7%³ and firmness by up to 8.3%³. These are group averages, so individual results will differ. The changes are not yet visible to the naked eye.

Week 12: Full study results

The primary endpoint of most publications. Visible fine lines down by up to 51%³, fine lines around the eyes up to 41.4% shallower³, deeper wrinkles up to 26%³, skin lightness up by up to 13.5%³, tone evenness up to 18.3%³, dark spots down up to 11.9%³. In parallel: pores up to 15% less visible², microroughness down up to 14%², lipid peroxidation down up to 55%⁵, erythema after UV down up to 38%⁴.

Month 3 onwards: Consolidation and protection

The three-month sea buckthorn study closes with hydration up by up to 49%¹ and elasticity up by up to 26%¹. Continued use maintains the result and works preventively: it protects collagen, stabilises cell membranes and neutralises the effects of everyday exposure to sun and pollution.

Manifesto

Radiance born from within

The beauty of skin can be measured, and aging can be consciously slowed.

Glow Protocol is not just a supplement. It is a protocol in which every ingredient plays a defined role, and together they work across two time horizons at once: radiance built and visible right away, and protection that compounds over time.

This is beauty biohacking: not treating a defect, but optimizing the measurable system that is the skin. Skin longevity is not a label slogan for us, it is a consequence of this philosophy. We see beauty as the result of well-supported biology and drawing out the full potential of your own body.

Most supplements focus on the dermis and on rebuilding collagen. But the layer we see in the mirror and that decides radiance is the epidermis, because it governs the physics of light reflection. When a lipid gap forms in the epidermis, the skin becomes rough and dull no matter how much collagen we take. Glow Protocol delivers fatty acids (including the rare Omega-7) and a full spectrum of carotenoids that rebuild and brighten the epidermis from within.

Yes. The two work on different levels and complement each other well. Collagen supports the deeper protein structures of the dermis, while Glow Protocol gives the epidermis the barrier lipids and plant pigments it lacks, responsible for an even, golden tone and antioxidant protection. Together they form a complete tissue-care system.

The product does not color the skin artificially or one-dimensionally, the way beta-carotene alone does. Thanks to a full spectrum of carotenoids (lycopene, lutein, zeaxanthin, astaxanthin), the pigments settle evenly into the epidermis, giving a subtle golden glow. This natural carotenoid tone is perceived as healthier, younger and more attractive than a tan from sun damage.

Saturating the epidermis happens in stages. The first effects, deep hydration and smoother microtexture, are usually noticeable after 2 to 4 weeks. Full carotenoid saturation, an even complexion and a lasting antioxidant shield require at least 12 weeks (3 months) of regular supplementation.
