Anti-aging

Question 1

Olivys-EA

Answer 1

1. olive stem cells
2. restores energy production to mitochondria which
   increases collagen & elastin –> therefore firmness
3. lipid RAFTS from Olivys fuse mitochondria increasing
   energy, collagen and elastin
4. tests/proof:
   -eye wrinkle reduction (picture)
   -in vivo firmness, skin elasticity, density, crow’s feet,
   smoothing

Question 2

Chlorellagen-DP

Answer 2

1. microalgae, Chlorella Vulgaris
2. improves skin firmness; reduces dark circles
3. boosts production of collagens in DEJ increasing
   cohesion of dermis & epidermis; reduces formation
   of new blood vessels
4. tests/proof:
   -in vivo picture: 1% effect on dark circles
   -in-vitros showing increase of collagen fibers @ 1%
   -increases TIMP3, decreases MMPs and stimulates
   collagen fibers

Question 3

Chloroplastim

Answer 3

1. alfalfa lipids, coconut oil, olive oil
2. anti-aging moisturizer with retinol-like activity;
   reduces UV impact on DNA
3. upregulates PPAR-a –> increases ceramide
   synthesis & decreases inflammation;
4. tests/proof:
   -in vivo picture: @ 1% (elephant skin to moisturized)
   -outperforms HA & Squalane in moisture and
   regression (10 days)
   -retinol-like activity in 48 hours w/ no irritation
   -in vivo picture: wrinkle reduction in 4 weeks
   -in vivo: reduce dimers by 50% (protects DNA)

Question 4

Janiastim

Answer 4

1. red algae Jania rubens (cultivated in bioreactor)
2. detox anti-aging; redensifies dermis
3. increases AQP8 channels to move H202 out of cells;
   AQP8 act as an exhaust system for free radicals
   which in turn increases collagen
4. tests/proof:
   -2% in 2 weeks diminished wrinkles
   -increases collagen density
   -0.2% increases collagen synthesis in 24 hours

Question 5

LinoRet-AF

Answer 5

1. retinol derivative that de-esterifies to retinol & linoleic acid
2. anti-aging (wrinkle reduction), exfoliating,
   moisturizing, brightening with no irritation or dryness
3. anti-aging effects like retinol; increases HA and collagen synthesis
4. tests/proof:
   -in vivo at 2% reduces skin imperfections, increase
   hydration, exfoliates, brightens
   -easy to formulate with; no special reqs.; emulsions,
   anhydrous or hydrogels
   -stable with no color change: 1 mth at 55C

Question 6

Mitostime

Answer 6

1. extract of Kombu
2. “fountain of youth”, reduces wrinkles, rejuvenates
   and increases skin respiration
3. eliminates marker of cell death
   which re-initiates collagen production & makes older
   cells act young
4. test/proof:
   -in vivo pic at 1%: reduces wrinkles
   -rejuvenates fibroblasts
   -eliminates toxic B-galactosidase
   -protects mitochondrial DNA

Question 7

Recycoll 180

Answer 7

1. Lemon balm (contains butylene glycol)
2. promotes endo 180 synthesis
3. increase collagen recycling, decrease wrinkles
4. test/proof:
   -in vivo pics: 2% for 8 weeks = decrease in wrinkle
   grade
   -promotes endo 180 synthesis, which sustains
   collagen cycle

Question 8

Vitaine-PF

Answer 8

1. liposome containing .5% stabilized retinol
2. enhances delivery, retention and increases stability
   of retinol
3. liposome protects it from water degradation; ratio of retinol to lipid ensures max stability
4. test/proof:
   -stabilized against UV-B
   -at 6%, stabilized in 2 formulas
