Vitamins
A and E are incorporated in a phospholipid form, which enable
them to penetrate the skin easily. Phospholipids enhance delivery
because they act like the key to unlock the door of the skin's protective
matrix.
Vitamin
C & E are more synergistically powerful together. Research
shows that when these two vitamins are combined their individual
strength and efficiency increases. Vitamin C recycles Vitamin E,
and Vitamin E's UV absorbing properties help prevent the breakdown
of Vitamin C.
Dipalmitoyl
Hydroxyproline is a plant-derived active that "smoothes"
out wrinkles, as it provides triple firming action. It works to
reinforce skin structure and protect it from breakdown, to scavenge
free radicals, which can cause skin to look older. Complements Vitamin
C
Palmitoyl-Pentapeptide
3 is an extremely effective ingredient. Peptides are very small
proteins - tiny pearls of proteins - that can insert themselves
into skin cells to trigger a process. In this case, the processes
are stimulating collagen production and reinforcing the presence
of the skin's supporting structure. It helps decrease the appearance
of deep wrinkles, smoothes the skin and gives long-term moisturization.
Complements Vitamin C.
Passion
Flower, Grape Leaf Extract, and Black Current - another specialized
peptide complex that inhibits the enzymatic destruction of elastin
fibers. This sophisticated complex works to retain the skin's elasticity
and tone. It prevents the skin from becoming loose or "baggy".
Polylysine
- another peptide complex that works to inhibit the enzymatic destruction
of collagen fibers.
Grape
Seed Extract and Green Tea Extract are powerful Anti-Oxidants
and provide additional protection from free radical scavengers.
Borage
Seed Oil, Meadowfoam Seed Oil, and Rose hips Oil, are natural
emollients that been selected because they contain the highest levels
of Gamma Linoleic Acid (GLA); which is one of the most important
elements for youthful looking skin.
Licorice
Extract and Bisabolol helps to soothe and calm the skin.
Beta
Glucans
are naturally occuring compounds that are found in the cell walls
of certain plants. They are polysaccharides that attract and keep
moisture in the skin. They help promote healthy skin, and improve
the appearance of skin tone and texture.
Sodium
Methyl Cocoyl Taurate will remove deeply embedded dirt and debris
without stripping or irritation on even the most sensitive skin
types.
Aloe
Barbadensis Leaf Juice is "Mother Nature's Astringent"
which helps purify the skin while producing a soothing and calming
effect.
White
Willow Bark Extract provides gentle exfoliation for the skin,
removing any dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. It creates
a smooth surface that is well prepared for the next treatment.
Saccharide
Isomerate is a special carbohydrate. It helps the skin to draw
and retain moisture that produces a youthful appearance, and also
strengthens the natural barriers of the skin.
Light
Reflective Diffusers help to diminish the appearance of dark
circles, fine lines, and wrinkles, as the
C-Sequential's cream base works to improve the quality of the skin.
Special
Red Algae increases cell turnover, while rebuilding cells in
a brick and mortar fashion. This gives the delicate skin under the
eyes a more "opacified" appearance.
