stage” of the Group’s cosmetic research and development plan which focuses on using

its proprietary Ionic Passive technology to develop new cosmetic products. Deploying

Transcu’s Ionic Passive technology, the serum’s moisturizing ingredient permeates into

the keratinous layer instantly and very effectively. The serum will moisturize and make

one’s skin resilient when applied on the areas of concern for wrinkles, such as the eye

and mouth area.

While conventional technology is unable to allow water-soluble ingredients to permeate

into the skin effectively, Transcu’s Ionic Passive technology solves the problem of

delivering water-soluble ingredients into skin by focusing on the difference of electric

potential between the skin surface and inner skin.

Previous laboratory in vivo tests conducted by the Group have demonstrated that its

Ionic Passive technology delivered a water-soluble ingredient approximately 7 times

more effectively compared to that of a competitor’s. The breakthrough
