: "repair" is good, "rejuvenate" already suggested by others, but what happened to "способствует?" / On second thought, though, I think your option does the job, except it has to be “repairS & rejuvenateS” (my word!) or "helps repair & rejuvenate." Kudoz!

Thanks ViBe. I did not translate "способствует" as the asker did not ask for it to be translated. If you were to translate it, I agree that "facilitates" as suggested by Naveen, is too postured - perhaps "aids" or "assists" or "helps" as you suggested.

: It is not Creatine (some brand name), but keratin, a family of fibrous structural proteins. Keratin is the key structural material making up the outer layer of human skin

Hi Naveen. You are right - I accidentally misread keratin for Creatine. I just finished translating an article on nutritional supplements - so I obviously had Creatine on the brain! However, "repair and rejuvenate" still stands as a good translation.

facilitates the repair and the regrowth
As Eyebrows and Eyelashes are hair, so in this context, repair of damaged hair, and regrowth of fallen hair are the perfect terms.

: isn't "facilitate" too "high-brow" a word 4 an ad copy re. repairing eyebrows?;) /Thank you, Naveen, for the Biology 101 lecture and yes, you’re abs. right if this is a boring description of a drug, a quote from a lecture for ... (see my duscussion post)

Keratin is not a brand name of some product but it is a family of fibrous structural proteins. So, no question about an ad copy. The text is from some description about this structural material making up the outer layer of human skin. What you say?

I’d reword the whole sentence (see below)
Keratin has a restorative and rejuvenating / anti-aging / regenerative / rebuilding (?) effect on (your) eyelashes and eyebrows.

Mark Cole
: Agree about the re-wording, but direct verbs would sound better ("..restores and rejuvenates"/"..helps restore and rejuvante")

Grazie, MarK: I concur on both accounts. "Helps..." is good.
