 |
| Antioxidants:
Preserve cellular integrity to maintain a functioning metabolism.
Neutralize the free radicals and eliminate toxins from the skin,
thereby slowing premature aging of these tissues. |
| Bleaching
Agents (Hydroquinone):
Organic compounds that stop the production of melanin and help fade
brown spots for brighter, more even toned skin. |
| EGF
(Epidermal Growth Factor):
A naturally occurring protein molecule that dramatically increases
skin cell regeneration and whose important discovery warranted a 1986
Nobel Prize. |
| Non-Acid
Enzymes: Derived from various organic substances,
enzymes are catalysts and some of them can spark the dissolving of
dead skin cells on the surface layer of the skin. This effect allows
for the deeper penetration of key ingredients. Non-acid enzymes are
a gentle alternative to acidic ones. The overall result of their application
is fresher, more youthful skin. |
|
Exfoliants (Glycolic): Organic
acids that remove the dead outer layer of skin allowing regenerated
cells to rise to the surface. An acid base intensifies EGF's ability
to 'retexturize' the skin and achieve the RéVive glow.
|
|
FGF
(Fibroblast Growth Factor): A naturally occurring molecule that
stimulates collagen synthesis, which firms the skin.
|
| Firming
Agents: Organic compounds
that maintain the skin's natural elasticity and resist the daily pull
of gravity. |
| IGF
(Insulin-like Growth Factor):
A naturally occurring 'youth molecule' that increases collagen production
which thickens the dermis and re-juices the skin. |
|
KGF
(Keratinocyte Growth Factor):
A naturally occuring protein molecule that augments facial volume
and fights the aging process by halting DNA fragmentation. Enhances
epidermal regeneration at breakneck speed.
|
| Melanin
Enzyme Inhibitors: These molecules safely and effectively fade
away skin spots caused by acne, age, or sun damage by blocking melanin
production, instead of harshly bleaching pigmentation after it forms. |
| MPI
(Metalloproteinase Inhibitor):
Naturally occurring enzymes that inhibit the loss of the skin's own
collagen and elastin, in essence slowing down the natural aging process.
Broken capillaries, fine lines, sun damage, rosacea and sagging are
significantly diminished. |
| Prisms:
Microscopic quartz-like brighteners that reflect light on the skin's
surface to mask wrinkles and imperfections. |
| Probiotics:
Nature’s method of providing natural and necessary growth factors
that stimulate cell renewal, reverse signs of aging and increase cellular
respiration and metabolism that becomes sluggish with age. |
| Retinol:
A form of Vitamin A that helps maintain the skin's integrity. Keeps
natural deterioration in check (i.e. crèpiness), helps fight
infection and protects from combustible toxins in the air, such as
cigarette smoke. |
| SOD
(Superoxide Dismutase): One
of the most powerful preventative antioxidants available. Dominant
in white blood cells, it purifies skin's surface of the environmental
impurities and free radicals that age and pollute the skin. |
|
SPF
15 (Sun Protective Factor):
Allows one to stay in the sun 15 times longer before burning commences.
Crucial in maintaining youthful skin. Contains both UVA and UVB
protection.
|
| Telomerase:
This molecule literally recruits youth by turning adult stem cells
into brand new skin cells. |
| Vitamin
C (Ascorbic
Acid): A
powerful antioxidant that combats free radicals (i.e. pollution) and
is instrumental in the body’s production of collagen molecules.
Improves elasticity and retexturizes skin by perfecting tone and pigmentation. |
