The compounds behind the ingredients.

Gingerol and shogaol are the two principal bioactive compounds in ginger (Zingiber officinale) — related molecules with distinct, complementary effects, both standardized in Arceli's GingActive™ and GingActive+™ technologies.

Crocin and safranal are saffron's (Crocus sativus) two signature bioactive compounds — crocin giving saffron its red-orange color, safranal giving it its aroma. Arceli's SaffInside™ standardizes a broader complex of these and related compounds (marketed as the Arsefran complex).

Squalene is a triterpene lipid found naturally in both animal sources (notably shark liver oil) and several plant sources, including amaranth seed. Arceli's SquaActive™ is a 99%-purity, Amaranthus-derived squalene.

Bakuchiol is a meroterpene phenol extracted from the seeds of Psoralea corylifolia (bakuchi), studied as a natural, retinol-like active for anti-aging skincare formulation.
