We get it…anti-aging products are everywhere – Day cream? Night cream? Serums? Which ones are natural and plant-derived, which is a synthetic chemical, and what is the most effective? It’s enough to give anyone anxiety! Environmental damage in today’s world (UV rays, blue rays from constant exposure to computer screens, etc.) cause even young skins to age much faster than in years past, and protection +correction from the damage this can cause is vital for healthy glowing skin. We have developed an elegant, anti-aging cream that is ultra-lightweight and does not skimp on results and is excellent for all skin types – day or night.
Our Cellular Firming Cream brings Moisture, skin firming and environmental in this lightweight, elegant skin cream. Infused with cranberry extract, this daily skin firming cream contains therapeutic levels of white birch bark extract. The extract, derived from the bark of the white birch tree, this extract is what gives our skin volume, lift, and firmness. Birch Bark Extract, over time, encourages the new collagen growth, also inhibits the enzyme responsible for elastin breakdown, and is believed to help decrease the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by maintaining the skin’s natural levels of firming collagen and elastin. In test-tube studies at the University of Illinois at Chicago, researchers found that the betulinic acid in white birch disrupted the activity of human melanoma cells.
Our unique AHA blend helps further refine the skin texture, and our powerful spin trap is a highly active oxygen/nitrogen complex, considered an “intelligent” antioxidant. Instead of destroying free radicals, it traps them, transforms them into useful oxygen, and then transports them back into the respiratory cycle. This moisturizer is an intensive environmental repair skin cream.
