Our Nano Tech Journey
Over 20 years ago, Clarisse researchers began to explore how to apply nanotechnology to heal scars, wounds and acne on the skin while simultaneously improving the appearance of damaged skin. Unlike younger skin which heals faster, and easier, older skin can act like wounded skin if not treated well.
Honouring the Earth
At Clarisse, we believe that our mother Earth is the most precious gift granted to us. We are aware of the pressing issues of climate crisis, wildlife extinction, threats to the ocean, human and social costs to the environment because of the ways many products out there are being produced.
We also know that our customers are equally passionate about sustaining the earth. Hence, we pledge to ensure that we continue to strive for better research in the coming days, and to create better products that honour the Earth.
Honouring our Teams and Supply Chains
Long before the term ‘sustainability’ became a trendy statement published by brands, we have already been operating our business which meets high standards of respect to our staff, our supply chains, customers and to ourselves.
In the past 20 years in the industry, we have strived to ensure that we only work with suppliers who have high standard of ethics and ethical considerations before we sourced their ingredients.
Clarisse is people friendly. We value teamwork and the spirit of collaboration amongst us.
Honouring Cost Efficiency
At Clarisse, we appreciate that customers want effective skin-care products for all skin types. Nevertheless, we are going through a ‘new normal’ in these especially challenging times, which necessitates many customers to really prioritise value for their money.
Our products are highly concentrated, so with just a little goes a long way to make them last a lot longer. Furthermore, because our products are sourced from quality ingredients, they have a longer shelf life and returns better value for cost.
What is Nano Technology?
What is Nano? According to the International Standards Agency (SI), nano is a unit, referring to the size of a billionth of a meter, which means, 1 nanometer is 10-9 of a meter. Hence, it tells the size of a particle. Effective against bacteria, fungus and virus! In the biomedical industry, Nano Zn+ is widely functional and beneficial.
When mixed with water, Nano Zn+ releases zinc ions (Zn+), which penetrates through cell membranes. When in contact with the negatively charged microbial cells, sulfhydryl in the bacteria will be attracted, deactivating the enzyme and directly damages the cell membrane, changing the characteristics of enzyme in microbial cells, leading to suffocation, decelerating metabolism and reproduction of bacteria and deactivating its anti-bacterial effect.
