INTERVIEW WITH MARKO SPANNOWSKY, PRODUCT DEVELOPER AT MARIA GALLAND

Maria Galland is synonymous with pioneering active-ingredient formulations. We talked to Marko Spannowsky, Managing Director of International Product Development, about some unique ingredients and combinations, as well as the TOP-CMG Complex.

What is your guiding philosophy when developing Maria Galland Paris products?

We are known for our extremely high levels of active ingredients. We make sure that these actives are supplied in the optimal concentrations to achieve the best possible results.

Maria Galland Paris combines active ingredients from the realm of nature with innovative technology. This way, we are extracting the best from the wealth of all possibilities to put in our products. Innovation requires courage, which is also reflected in our exclusive TOP-CMG Complex.

What is its secret?

The successful composition of the TOP-CMG Complex contains natural white truffle, 24-carat gold, anti-ageing peptides and a cell activator, developed using modern technology.

What does the name ‘TOP-CMG Complex’ mean?

TOP-CMG stands for Truffle, Or (which means ‘gold’ in French), Peptides and Cell activator.

Do luxury ingredients like truffle and gold really deliver more?

We in product development are only interested in what luxury actives like 24-carat gold and white truffle can actually do for the skin. When developing new formulations, we always ask ourselves: Does the active ingredient have a purpose? Does it produce a desired effect? If not, it doesn’t end up in the pot.

What effects do the ingredients in the TOP-CMG Complex deliver?

White truffle is deeply hydrating and smoothing, while 24-carat gold improves cell activity. The combination of all these actives is unique and has a fivefold effect on the skin: it smooths, improves firmness and elasticity, stimulates regeneration, optimises hydration and combats wrinkles.

Which products contain the TOP-CMG Complex?

This unique complex is at the heart of our exclusive formulations developed for the MILLE line – our skincare collection that addresses the highest anti-ageing requirements.

A closer look at the ingredients in the TOP-CMG Complex

The effects of the ingredients in the TOP-CMG Complex on the skin:

Truffle

White truffle is rich in amino acids, minerals and trace elements. These have an intensely hydrating, balancing and smoothing effect.

Gold

24-carat gold stimulates skin activity and cells for a radiant complexion.

Anti-ageing peptides

These make wrinkles less pronounced and promote the skin’s natural production of collagen.

Cell activator

Based on the principle of using telomeres to protect chromosomes, the cell activator provides skin cells with optimal protection and reduces the signs of ageing.
