TECHNOLOGY
The Ernst Collection pieces promotes glowing and healthier-looking skin, enhances firmness, reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, supports the production of collagen and deodorizes your skin.
Our clothes are a unique blend of 2 ingredients, cotton and hemp, carefully harvested to create a sustainable and luxurious touch. Particles of Copper oxide, naturally present in the skin and the environment, are shot into the fiber, creating our G-cotton, with permanent skincare properties and antibacterial powers. G-cotton is then intertwined with hemp, a planet-friendly fiber that is produced with less water, zero chemicals and zero waste, forming our nurturing fabric. To elevate our antioxidant complex, we then infuse the fabric with microcapsules of Coenzyme Q10 to better firm, enhance and freshen your skin.
G-cotton is composed of natural cotton fibers that are permanently shot with particles of copper oxide, naturally present in the skin and the environment, with permanent skincare properties and antibacterial powers.

Skin aging is attributed to the reduction of collagen, accelerated by inflammation and oxidative cellular stress. Copper, as a pure and sustainable active ingredient, naturally recognized by our bodies, addresses these two main concerns. On one hand, this essential mineral plays a crucial role in stimulating the production of fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen production, upregulating its levels on the skin. On the other hand, copper has potent biocidal properties that kill bacteria, fungi and viruses, which cause inflammation and oxidative stress. A dual combat to achieve firmer and younger-looking skin. Our G-cotton technology, catalyzed with copper, allows the properties from this ingredient to remain forever fresh and active for the skin.

Known as a powerful antioxidant, Coenzyme Q10 strengthens the skin in the fight against age-associated alterations. This active ingredient helps to maintain sufficient cellular energy levels to stop the decline of cellular activity and protect against free radicals that originate the oxidative aging process on the skin. Topical treatment with coenzyme Q10 helps to achieve glowing and healthier-looking skin. Coenzyme Q10 is encapsulated in our pieces and will be gradually unlocked with usage.
