Aloe
Barbadensis Gel
Referred
to as the “Lily of the Desert,” the Aloe plant grows in arid desert
areas throughout the year. Its thick green leaves envelope the
transparent rich Aloe Vera Gel. This plant has the unique ability to
retain water, enabling it to survive in dry climates. Aloe contains
health-promoting components, such as vitamins, minerals, enzymes and
essential Amino Acids, and protects the skin from dryness.
Antioxidants
Antioxidants in skin care
include the antioxidant vitamins E and C, and beta-carotene. They work
by destroying free radicals (oxygen molecules that contribute to cell
level inflammation and collagen break down, which leads to wrinkles,
sagging, and poor skin tone).
COQ10
Powerful antioxidant. Helps
diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Strengthens the
skin's defense against sun damage and pollutants.
Matrixyl(aka:
Palmitoyl-Pentapeptide-3)
A cosmetic active proven in clinical studies to
improve wrinkle appearance more rapidly than Retinol. Matrixyl 3000® was
designed to promote collagen production while strengthening the
essential structure of skin tissue. Matrixyl 3000 remarkably encourages
skin tissue to restore itself to a more youthful strength while
promoting deep tissue repair. When skin is wrinkled, tiny cells
called fibroblasts help to repair the damaged area by forming new
tissue. Part of the fibroblasts job is to produce new collagen, an
essential component of connective tissue. Although fibroblasts never
completely lose their ability to create more collagen, with ageing,
levels dwindle, and skin loses suppleness and support structure and
begins to wrinkle. Matrixyl 3000 stimulates fibroblast molecules in
the skin, enabling them to significantly reduce the appearance of
wrinkles. The
proven benefits of Matrixyl 3000 are:• A reduction in the
appearance of wrinkle volume and depth • A reduction in the
appearance of roughness and complexity • A decrease in the area
around wrinkles and the appearance of wrinkle density
Retinyl
Palmitate Polypeptide
Vitamin A (Retinyl
Palmitate) plays a key role as an initiator of cell growth and protein
production. It works to normalize the skin ensuring that it is
functioning at an optimal level. The use of Retinyl Palmitate
Polypeptide - a glycoprotein complex containing retinyl palmitate, will
not only help to optimize the efficient normal working of the skin's
cells; but, provides additional moisturizing and protective qualities to
the skin.
Vitamin A
A
potent antioxidant and very effective free-radical scavenger, is
especially beneficial for dry or damaged skin. Known as "the skin
vitamin", it acts as a keratinization regulator, helping to improve the
skin's texture, firmness, and smoothness. Vitamin A helps prevent skin
dryness and scaliness by hydrating and softening the skin, keeping it
healthy, clear, and infection resistant. It is used for anti-aging
products due to its ability to stimulate new cell production, which is
enhanced when combined with vitamin E. When vitamin A is incorporated
into skin care products at adequate levels, it will increase cell
proliferation in the epidermis, stimulate fibroblasts to produce elastin
and collagen, and induce new blood vessels to grow, all of which result
in healthier and younger looking skin.
Vitamin C
Considered the most
powerful water-soluble antioxidant, is also one of today's most dynamic
natural skin care ingredients. It has been clinically shown to reverse
photoaging (wrinkles and age spots) and boost the skin's collagen
production for smoother and firmer skin. In addition, vitamin C inhibits
UVA and UVB radiation-induced damage, also resulting in younger looking
skin.
Vitamin E
Considered the most important oil-soluble
antioxidant and free radical scavenger, has numerous skin care benefits.
In order to efficiently utilize oxygen and keep skin cells at their
optimum health, skin tissue requires vitamin E; it is one of nature's
most dynamic cellular renewal and healing ingredients.
It is also an extremely
effective moisturizer that is
easily absorbed by the skin.
Vitamin E is known to improve the appearance of rough, dry, and
damaged skin by reducing transdermal water loss and, when combined with
other vitamins, it moisturizes from within. Some clinical research shows
that vitamin E can help maintain the skin's connective tissue, helping
it stay smooth and elastic. Vitamin E is a photoprotectant and helps
shield the cellular membrane from free radical damage. Studies show that
when applied prior to UV light exposure, vitamin E helps protect
against epidermal cell damage.
Wheat
Amino Acids
Extracted
from the embryo of the wheat kernel. An anti-inflammatory and skin
nourisher that also acts as a natural preservative because of its high
vitamin E content.
White/Green
Tea Leaf Extract
The
benefits of green tea to the skin have been widely documented. This
powerful antioxidant (20 times stronger than vitamin E) inhibits the
formation of cancer-causing free radicals and helps prevent skin cell
damage caused by sun exposure and pollution. An important ingredient in
sun care products, as well as in creams, lotions, shampoos and
conditioners. An anti-inflammatory and ant irritant, it is high in
xanthines, very soothing and moisturizing to both hair and skin. We use
powdered Matcha green tea from Japan, known as one of the
finest sources.
