Specialised Ingredients
Share
There are many vitamins and minerals naturally present in the plant oils used in our product. However, we do boost the product with addition of the following ingredients (depending on the specific product we are producing).
Tocopherol Acetate
Tocopherol Acetate aka Vitamin E is a powerful anti-oxidant which works to block free radicals from the body that play a large part in the aging process. If we can fight off free radicals, then we can reduce wrinkles and keep the skin youthful-looking. It also strengthening the capillary walls and improves moisture and elasticity, acting as a natural anti-aging nutrient within your body. Studies have shown that vitamin E reduces inflammation both within your body and on your skin.
D-Panthenol
D-Panthenol, also known as pro-vitamin B5, has been dubbed the “anti-stress vitamin” because it helps support the skin’s ability to manage stress. It helps maintain the strength of the skin’s outer barrier sealing in hydration and aids infusion of nutrients that work to fight the environmental toxins that are also stressors to our skin helping to defy the ageing process. It also helps manage the healthy levels of fibroblasts – the cells that are most prolific in our skin’s connective tissue – which in turn boosts collagen and elastin, the proteins that help keep skin luminous, elastic and even toned.
Co-enzyme Q10
Co-enzyme Q10 is used by your cells to produce the energy your body needs for cell growth and maintenance. It also functions as an antioxidant, which protects the body from damage caused by harmful molecules. Taken internally, it has been indicated in cases of heart failure, as well as cancer, muscular dystrophy, and periodontal disease and to help recovery after exercise.
Hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid is naturally occurring in the skin and able to hold 1000 times its weight in water (once inside the skin), it has powerful moisturising properties hydrating dry and aged skin, decreasing “epidermis water loss” associated with sun exposure, skin dryness or flakiness. Over time, it helps reduce wrinkles and skin sagging and gives fuller lips, increased cheek volume and general skin plump and bounce. HA is beneficial for treating cold sores and mouth sores, ulcers, wounds, bites and burns due to how it keeps damaged tissue moist. It also provides sunburn relief. Appropriately administered, it has also been found to assist with dry eyes and aching joints.
Aloe Vera concentrate
By adding 200x concentrate, we are able to greatly boosts the aloe vera content of the overall mix. We only use certified high quality product extracted using a patented process which preserves the active ingredients from the aloe vera inner leaf fillet.
