Get in touchIn its search for innovative cells with a lightening effect, Naolys has developed a new strain of cell from a plant species that is rarely used in cosmetics: poet’s narcissus. The white flowers of this early-flowering European perennial have a heady scent; the narcissus is a cousin of the daffodil, which has been recognized for its medicinal properties since ancient times. In Ovid’s Metamorphoses, Narcissus dies after becoming fixated with staring at his reflection in the water. Today, the narcissus is an ornamental flower appreciated for its elegant beauty and is still used in the creation of fragrances.

Melanocyte
Diagram
Skin pigmentation is due to the presence of melanin in the skin which is manufactured through a complex process. Melanin is a pigment that is synthesized in melanocytes, and then transferred into surrounding keratinocytes which transport it to the skin’s surface. In the skin on the face, there are about 2000 dendritic melanocytes per mm2, in the basal layer of the epidermis. They are evenly distributed among the keratinocytes and may transfer melanin to 36 surrounding keratinocytes. The melanocytes produce little sacks which contain melanin: the melanosomes.
The synthesis of melanin begins with the synthesis of tyrosine, an amino acid, supplied by the blood, which is catalysed by enzymes, including tyrosinase. Several chemical reactions then take place that result in the production of melanin. The synthesis takes place in the melanosomes, intracellular organelles in the melanocytes, created from various vesicles in the melanocytes. As the melanin is synthesized, different types of melanosomes form according to the quantity and type of melanin they produce. After these chemical reactions, the melanin is stored in the melanosomes until their internal structure is no longer visible.
Inside Light Poet’s narcissus reduces the synthesis of melanin in melanosomes by reducing both the synthesis of tyrosine and tyrosinase activity.
The melanosomes are transported from the perinuclear region toward the tips of the dendrites. Having reached their final stage when they are filled with melanin, they migrate to the ends of the melanocytes’ dendrites. They then transfer to the keratinocytes through a mechanism that is not yet fully understood.
Inside Light Poet’s narcissus decreases the transfer of melanosomes to keratinocytes.
