Cannabinoid ActiveAnti-inflammatory, sebum regulation, calming
Hemp-Derived Cannabidiol (CBD)
Hemp-derived cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most studied phytocannabinoids for topical application. Unlike systemic CBD consumption, topical application targets localized endocannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2) embedded in the skin's keratinocytes, sebocytes, and sensory nerve fibers. Clinical research demonstrates that CBD modulates cytokine activity, reducing pro-inflammatory markers including IL-1β and TNF-α — making it particularly effective for acne-prone, rosacea-affected, and chronically sensitized skin. Ankeryss sources only THC-free, third-party lab-verified CBD for use in the CBD Infused Massage Oil, ensuring complete safety and consistent potency across every batch.
Botanical Active · A SeriesBarrier reconstruction, anti-oxidant, cornification acceleration
Himalayan Dracocephalum Extract
Dracocephalum heterophyllum, cultivated in high-altitude Himalayan regions, contains an exceptionally high concentration of rosmarinic acid and luteolin — polyphenolic antioxidants that neutralize reactive oxygen species and suppress lipid peroxidation in the skin's cellular membranes. In the Ankeryss Purple Snow Ginseng Repair Cream, this extract works synergistically with biomimetic lipid complexes to accelerate the cornification process — the terminal differentiation of keratinocytes — which is the biological mechanism underlying healthy skin barrier formation. Studies show accelerated barrier recovery in damaged skin with as little as two weeks of consistent use.
Delivery System · A SeriesSustained hydration release, pH normalization, microbiome support
Patented 3D Sphere Biotechnology
Developed through a collaboration between US and Korean biotech laboratories, the patented 3D sphere delivery system encapsulates active humectants and moisture-regulating molecules within multilayer biodegradable spheres. Upon contact with the skin's surface, these spheres burst in a controlled cascade — releasing actives across multiple skin depths simultaneously rather than in a single surface-level application. This technology, featured in the Hydra-Revive Awakening Essence Lotion, ensures that hyaluronic acid and amino acid complexes reach both the stratum corneum and the upper viable epidermis, providing measurably deeper and longer-lasting hydration than conventional water-based serums.
Peptide Active · K SeriesWrinkle smoothing, collagen stimulation, neuromuscular relaxation
Snake Venom Tri-Peptide (Biomimetic)
Biomimetic snake venom tri-peptide — a synthetic analog of the natural neuropeptide found in temple viper (Tropidolaemus wagleri) venom — functions as a topical neuro-smoothing agent. The peptide temporarily inhibits the acetylcholine-triggered muscular contractions responsible for dynamic expression lines, creating a visible smoothing effect within 28 days of consistent use. Unlike injectable botulinum toxin, the biomimetic tri-peptide is non-invasive, site-specific, and accumulates no systemic exposure. Combined with Spanish wild chamomile extract and daisy-derived brightening agents in the Ankeryss Venom Peptide Firming Eye Cream, this ingredient delivers a comprehensive anti-aging response in the periorbital zone.
Fermented Bioactive · K SeriesMicrocirculation improvement, dark circle reduction, anti-fatigue
Glycoside Extract (Japanese Ferment)
Japanese bio-fermented glycoside extract is produced through a controlled lacto-fermentation process that transforms plant polysaccharides into highly bioavailable glycoside compounds with superior dermal penetration. In clinical trials, topically applied glycoside ferments were shown to significantly improve sub-dermal microcirculation — the root cause of vascular dark circles — by dilating capillary networks and reducing blood pooling beneath the thin periorbital skin. Ankeryss incorporates this extract as the lead active in the Shrimp Spine Eye Essence, complemented by hepta-leaf extract from Europe, which provides a secondary anti-edema effect to visibly reduce morning puffiness.
Carrier Oil · CBD CollectionEnhanced absorption, skin softening, antimicrobial
MCT Oil (Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride)
Medium-chain triglycerides (MCT), derived primarily from coconut oil, consist of caprylic (C8) and capric (C10) fatty acids that are uniquely suited as topical carriers due to their low molecular weight and high lipophilicity. MCT oil penetrates the skin's lipid barrier efficiently without leaving a heavy occlusive residue, making it an ideal vehicle for delivering lipid-soluble actives such as cannabidiol deep into the dermis. Additionally, caprylic acid exhibits inherent antimicrobial properties, helping to maintain a balanced skin microbiome during use. In the Ankeryss CBD Infused Massage Oil, MCT oil forms the primary carrier base for eight complementary botanical oils, creating a lightweight yet therapeutically rich massage medium.
