Active Vitamin C Complex

10% Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate - Liquid Vitamin C - is one of the most effective and beneficial cosmetic antioxidants available today. The modified vitamin is released as pure C internally. It is an invaluable, stable antioxidant as it works to protect against UV induced cell damage and lipid peroxidation, two of the strongest contributors to the aging process

Australian summers are amongst the hottest in the world and the more we protect and nourish our skin from the sun, the better it is for our future. One important action of Vitamin C is that it adds extra protection to the skin on a cellular level by increasing the cell survival rate in the epidermis when exposed to UV rays. Exposure to UV rays is the highest contributor of premature aging and potential skin disorders.

Another unique quality of our cosmetic Vitamin C oil-soluble liquid is that it prevents lipid peroxidation. Lipid peroxidation results from free radical damage and also contributes to cell damage and premature aging. Our lipophilic Vitamin C liquid makes it a unique product which is readily absorbed into the skin providing added protection and nourishment

Benefits:

• Being lipophilic it has superior absorption qualities
• Exhibits a lightening effect on the skin and may help reduce the appearance of pigmentation
• Potent anti-oxidant properties protect against DNA cell damage induced by UV exposure
• Prevents & repairs lipid peroxidation to aid surface plumping & fine lines
• Protects the skin against exogenous ageing
• Promotes collagen synthesis and collagen protection to restore & maintain skin youth

15% Terminalia Ferdinandiana (Kakadu Plum)

It is vital to maintain the delicate balance of nature by harnessing phyto-actives without damaging the plant’s bio-matrix. Outdated extraction methods (maceration/percolation/powders) place a plant under extreme stress, compromising the integrity of the natural molecules, breaking their bonds and rendering them an inactive extract of decomposed plant matter. CELLULAR EXTRACTION mimics the cell environment and rapidly transfers the full range of naturally occurring water-soluble phytonutrients into a medium that maintains the stability and integrity of the phyto-compounds, as they exist in nature in their synergistic relationships

• Water soluble, extracted from the Kakadu Plum, the richest source of vitamin C (Superfruit)
• Free radical scavenger due to high Vitamin C content and polyphenol contents
• Induces vitamin C transporter (SVCT-1) synthesis on skin cells
• Stimulates pro-collagen I and hyaluronic acid synthesis
• Reduces the appearance of wrinkles
• Fights and protects the skin against oxidative stress
• Boosts skin radiance and luminosity
• Improves skin tone evenness with an overall brightening effect

Capable of binding to cells, which helps anchor organized tissue cells to the membrane & is vital for the maintenance and survival of healthy tissue
• Stimulates the synthesis of 6 major constituents of the skin matrix and dermal-epidermal junction (collagen I, III, IV, fibronectin, hyaluronic acid and laminin 5)
• Matrixyl Synthe-6 evens out skin and smoothes wrinkles from the inside by rebuilding the skin where it is needed, particularly on the forehead and crow's feet
• It’s primary function is to plump wrinkles & restore a youthful voluminous look
• 62% reduction in wrinkle depth after 28 days with 2% Matrixyl Synthe 6

• GLYCATION begins from the age of 20 & increases naturally every year by 10% each year It is a natural & spontaneous reaction between a protein and a sugar that causes stiffening of the protein that is losing its functionality                                                                                                                                                                KEY SKIN TARGETS : dermal proteins (collagen and elastin) and intra-cellular proteins.                                      VISIBLE SIGNS:  Loss of elasticity, firmness & appearance of wrinkles

 LOSS OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL SKIN COMMUNICATION WITH AGE In the epidermis, the inter-keratinocyte exchanges via the GAP ( junctions reduce causing a decrease in epidermal homeostasis and keratinocyte differentiation. This results in skin dryness, wrinkles & weakened photoprotective effect
