Before buying any new skin product, our first question is often how quickly the product works and when we can expect the first results. We want to wake up the next morning with flawless and smooth skin. But the truth is that real, noticeable and long-term results require time and patience. Changes do not happen overnight, but are seen during the skin renewal cycle, with consistent use. This is precisely why it is important to understand the life cycle of the skin, as this way we can set realistic expectations or do more to speed up the renewal cycle.
How does our skin regenerate?
The skin renewal cycle is a process in which a new skin cell (keratinocyte) is formed in the deepest layer of the epidermis or epidermis, which then matures and slowly moves towards the surface of the skin. When it reaches the surface, the skin cell is mature and its nucleus is degenerating. Dead or dead cells are formed, which peel off or fall off the surface of the skin over time.
The skin renewal cycle varies from individual to individual and depends on various factors such as age, hormones, lifestyle and overall skin health. On average, the recovery cycle lasts 5-6 weeks . In youth, from 19 to 21 years, this process can last only 14 to 21 days, but in adults it is estimated at 28 days. With age, the process begins to lengthen, so in the 40s and 50s it lasts from 45 to 60 days. Until the age of 60, it can take from 60 to 90 days. As a result, the prolonged renewal cycle also affects the appearance of the skin itself. This is why fine lines, wrinkles, skin blemishes and uneven skin coloration, better known as hyperpigmentation, are more pronounced as the skin ages .

Aging and the effect on the skin renewal cycle
As we age, our skin regenerates more slowly, so even when starting to use new products, it takes longer to notice visible changes. As the renewal cycle is extended, so is the time for the product to become visible and effective. With a new skin care routine, it may take 1 to 3 cycles for the changes to be noticeable. Of course, consistent use and patience are important.
Skin care is designed in such a way that it does not work only on the surface, but penetrates into the deeper layers of the skin, which is why we often first notice the hydration and softness of the skin, and then only changes in texture, tension, firmness, and above all in the reduction of the visibility of wrinkles and fine lines.
Therefore, it is important to choose a cream for the best results, which will take care of short-term and long-term changes on the skin. With ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, vitamin B5 or rosehip oil , your skin will feel softer and visibly moisturized from the first application. The combination of other ingredients, such as bee venom, coenzyme Q10 , vitamin E and grape seed oil, will ensure more intensive action and effective skin renewal.

Bee venom and its effect on the skin
In recent years, bee venom has become one of the most recognized ingredients in the world of anti-aging cosmetics. With its exceptional properties, it has gained a lot of attention from both skin professionals and consumers looking for natural and effective anti-aging solutions.
When we talk about bee venom, we cannot ignore its unique composition. This natural miracle is rich in biologically active ingredients such as peptides and enzymes, which play a key role in the regeneration and renewal of skin cells. One of the most important components of bee venom is melitin, which penetrates cell membranes upon contact with the skin and causes a gentle but effective reaction that stimulates blood circulation in the skin.
Improved blood circulation to the skin has several important effects. Primarily stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, two key proteins that provide firmness and elasticity to the skin. This means that bee venom has a direct effect on reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improves the overall texture and tone of the skin. It secondarily contributes to better oxygenation of skin cells, which is key to maintaining healthy and radiant skin.
In addition to melittin, bee venom also contains apamin, a natural peptide, which has an anti-inflammatory effect and prevents muscle contractions. This helps to even out the wrinkles on the skin while providing a soothing sensation. Apamin and other components of bee venom work synergistically to provide the skin with complete care and protection.

Research has shown that regular use of bee venom products can bring noticeable improvements in skin health. The latter are especially noticeable in individuals who face the consequences of aging, such as skin dryness, loss of elasticity and the appearance of age spots. It is precisely for this reason that it is important to mention that the results of using bee venom depend on the individual, his age and, above all, the consistency of use. The skin needs time to renew itself and at the same time absorb all the active ingredients, so patience is key.
