"Regardless of skin type, everyone shares the same desire – even, healthy, and radiant skin. With CREYAN, our customers achieve visible results without compromising on quality and a pleasant texture."
That's what Elisabeth Bergvall says. She is the face and driving force behind the CREYAN SKIN SYSTEM skincare line, developed in collaboration with leading dermatologists and international formulation experts. She grew up in Gothenburg and worked in Sweden, England, and Germany after her studies. With over 15 years of experience in the international development and marketing of cosmetics, she founded Nordesta in Stockholm in 2010 and began the exclusive distribution of selected dermatological brands. The German-Swedish company, based in Munich, develops and markets products for the Cosmeceutical CREYAN SKIN SYSTEM – all Made in Germany.
MULTI-ACTIVE HIGH-PERFORMANCE SKINCARE
At the heart of CREYAN's philosophy is Simplexity, the concept of a perfect balance between complexity and minimalism. Effective high-tech cosmetics with natural active ingredients, highly pure formulations, and high skin tolerance. Without compromise for skin health.
"In developing our formulas, we have drawn on years of studies and research into the safety, efficacy, and power of natural ingredients," says Elisabeth Bergvall, emphasizing: "We use highly pure formulations, without silicones, parabens, PEGs, and mineral oils; all our products are vegan and produced without animal testing."
The uniqueness of CREYAN lies in the continuous integration of international research into the development of CREYAN products and their active ingredient compositions. All formulas originated from simple ideas that led to complex, effective recipes. In addition to skin-identical lipids, pure minerals, antioxidants, flavonoids, vitamins, and natural oils, the formulations are defined by active ingredients with proven efficacy in effective concentrations.
"I wanted a skincare product that visibly benefits the skin, but is so well-tolerated that it can even be used after aesthetic procedures. By collaborating with dermatologists and their expertise, combined with formulation expertise, I could be sure that we would get the best of the best. Dermatologists deal with skin problems and diseases daily and know the different needs of the skin better than anyone else. Thus, CREYAN stands for innovative active ingredients, highly pure formulations, multi-active ingredient complexes, and unique textures." says Elisabeth Bergvall and highlights three active ingredients that stand out at CREYAN:
ALBIZIA JULIBRISSIN BARK EXTRACT
The active ingredient from the Persian silk tree is contained in the Eye Contour Cream. It tightens the eye area, effectively reducing lines, wrinkles, dark circles, and puffiness. The effect is supported by ARGIRELINE, a Botox-like active ingredient that relaxes the skin and reduces wrinkles.
NIACINAMIDE (Vitamin B3)
is very popular among experts for good reason. Among niacin's many benefits are reversing and preventing signs of skin aging, brightening and smoothing the skin, soothing inflammation and redness, reducing hyperpigmentation (age- and sun-related), as well as providing moisture and supporting the skin barrier. At CREYAN, niacinamide is used, for example, in BALANCING TONER, FIRMING DAY CREAM, and AGE CONTROL HAND CREAM.
THE THIRD HERO ACTIVE INGREDIENT IS MSM (METHYLSULFONYLMETHANE),
an organic sulfur compound that can restore collagen and keratin, which are the fundamental building blocks for healthy skin. Sulfur is the third most abundant mineral in our body and performs a variety of biological functions, including for our skin. The mineral can supply deep skin layers with sulfur and is used for treating severe inflammation, redness, and scar tissue. It is antibacterial, reduces sebum production, and removes dead skin cells. MSM works very well in treating rosacea and acne by reducing redness, blemishes, and itching without side effects. MSM can be found, for example, in NUTRI ACTIVE 24H CREAM.
"HEALTHY SKIN IS BEAUTIFUL SKIN"
Under this motto, CREYAN SKIN has opened a new showroom. In Pullach near Munich, the high-quality and effective skincare series with natural active ingredients is presented. Customers and interested parties can visit, get advice, and test and purchase products for their own skin type. The friendly managing director and her team have big plans.
"We have big plans for the future. In our new showroom, we want to assist our customers in choosing the right products for their skin type and organize training sessions for our partners, beauticians, and institutes."
