Key Ingredients
Sodium Hyaluronate
(Hyaluronic Acid – Botanically Derived) 10.0%
Humectant; demonstrates hydrophilic properties – attracts and binds up to 1800 times its molecular weight in water.
Mixed Fruit Acid Extracts [Proprietary Combination of Vaccinium Myrtillus (Bilberry) Fruit/Leaf Extract, Saccharum Officinarum (Sugarcane) Extract, Acer Saccharum (Sugar Maple) Extract, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Fruit Extract, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Fruit Extract] 10.0%
Natural fruit and sugar acids work to enhance desquamation and increase cellular turnover, smooth skin and decrease fine lines and wrinkles while enabling deeper penetration of ingredients.
Hyaluronic Acid Microspheres (Botanically Derived) 5.0%
Pure hyaluronic acid that has been cross-linked, dehydrated and encapsulated into microspheres. Combined with water in the epidermis, the microspheres act like tiny sponges, absorbing TEWL and expanding to fill in wrinkles.
Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (Vitamin C) 5.0%
A lipid-soluble analogue of L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C). Potent antioxidant and free radical scavenger; lightens by inhibiting melanin synthesis, which is necessary for healthy collagen synthesis; inhibits MMP enzymes.
Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) 1.0%
This unique, natural enzyme safely absorbs harmful free radicals to combat photoaging and cell damage while protecting the skin against future damage. While many non-enzymatic antioxidants are destroyed during antioxidant activity, SOD defends itself and the skin.
Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract
(Source of Salicylic Acid) 1.0%
Encourages desquamation by “dissolving” intracellular “cement” with no inflammatory effects. Also deep cleans pores and removes debris within hair follicles.
Asiaticoside, Asiatic Acid and Madecassic Acid
(Centella Asiatica) 1.0%
Efficacious antioxidant stimulates collagen synthesis and improves microcirculation, capillary flow and vascular tone. Promotes wound healing and the reduction of scar tissue.
Soy Isoflavones 0.5%
Soy flavonoids with antioxidant properties. Promote skin firming and the smoothing of lines and wrinkles while working to inhibit metalloproteinase (MMP) enzymes that degrade collagen and elastin.
Copper Tripeptide Growth Factor (Bioidentical)
Copper tripeptide-1 (bioidentical) has been clinically proven
to stimulate the synthesis of collagen in skin fibroblasts and increase accumulation of total proteins, glycosaminoglycans and DNA in dermal wounds. The Copper tripeptide-1 sequence is present in collagen and it is suggested that the Copper tripeptide-1 is released after tissue injury. Copper tripeptide-1 also increases synthesis of decorin – a small proteoglycan in the regulation of collagen synthesis, wound-healing regulation and anti-tumor defense.
