Crepey Skin Liposomal Repair Cream

Idebenone, a synthetic analog of coenzyme Q10, has been studied for its potential benefits in treating photodamaged skin. A notable clinical trial evaluated the efficacy of topical formulations containing 0.5% and 1.0% idebenone on individuals with moderate photodamage.

Over a six-week period, participants applied the formulations twice daily. The study reported that the 1.0% idebenone formulation led to a 26% reduction in skin roughness and dryness, a 37% increase in skin hydration, a 29% decrease in fine lines and wrinkles, and a 33% overall improvement in the global assessment of photodamaged skin. The 0.5% formulation yielded similar, albeit slightly less pronounced, results.

Additionally, immunofluorescence staining indicated decreases in pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and IL-6) and matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), along with an increase in collagen I expression, suggesting that idebenone may help modulate factors involved in skin aging and damage.

These findings suggest that idebenone can effectively improve various signs of photodamage, including skin texture, hydration, and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Its antioxidant properties and potential to modulate skin inflammation and collagen production make it a promising ingredient in skincare formulations aimed at addressing photodamaged skin.

Liposomes are tiny spherical vesicles that have at least one lipid bilayer. They are used in skincare products for several beneficial reasons:

1. Enhanced Delivery of Active Ingredients: Liposomes are designed to encapsulate active ingredients, allowing them to be delivered deep into the skin more effectively than non-encapsulated ingredients. This means that ingredients such as vitamins, antioxidants, and retinol can reach the layers of skin where they can be most beneficial.
2. Improved Stability: Many active ingredients in skincare are sensitive to light, air, or pH changes and can degrade quickly when exposed to these elements. Encapsulating these ingredients in liposomes can protect them from degradation, ensuring that the product remains effective for a longer period.
3. Increased Hydration: The lipid bilayer of liposomes is similar to the lipid bilayer of skin cells, which helps to restore the skin’s natural barrier. This can improve skin hydration by reducing transepidermal water loss, helping to keep skin moisturized and plump.
4. Targeted Delivery: Liposomes can be engineered to target specific areas of the skin, ensuring that active ingredients are released where they are most needed. This targeted delivery can increase the efficacy of skincare products by focusing on areas that require the most attention, such as spots with signs of aging or damage.
5. Reduced Irritation: By encapsulating active ingredients, liposomes can also help to reduce the potential for irritation. This is particularly beneficial for sensitive skin types or when using potent ingredients that could otherwise cause irritation if applied directly to the skin.
6. Compatibility with Skin: Liposomes are biocompatible, meaning they are readily accepted by the skin and unlikely to cause adverse reactions. This makes liposome-based products suitable for a wide range of skin types, including sensitive skin.

In summary, liposomes enhance the effectiveness of skincare products by ensuring that active ingredients are delivered deeply, precisely, and safely into the skin. This leads to improved product performance, offering benefits like increased hydration, reduced signs of aging, and a healthier skin barrier.

Apply cream to wet skin up to twice daily, rub into desired area thoroughly, about 1 min. Allow the cream another min to absorb before applying other products. For added benefit mist with purified water.

Best used with a daily SPF cream for UVA/UVB protection.

Hyaluronic acid is a natural polymer found in skin and joints. It has strong water-attractant properties, so it helps the skin better hold on to moisture. A clinical study from Miami Skin Institute showed that hyaluronic acid improved skin hydration by almost 100% and decreased the depth of wrinkles by up to 40%. These results were observed as early as two weeks into the clinical trial. 

Retinol or vitamin A is crucial for skin health and many people don’t consume enough of it. It activates genes that stimulate cell turnover, increased collagen and elastin production, and reduced excess skin pigmentation. These changes improve skin thickness, strengthen the skin barriers, and put hyaluronic acid and collagen in the right places. Therefore, retinol is an important ingredient for crepey and wrinkle skin repair. 

Glycolic acid turns on skin renewal genes which activate collagen production and increase hyaluronic acid. At the same time, it loosens and exfoliates the stratum corneum layer, allowing other ingredients in the cream to penetrate deeper layers of your skin without compromising the skin barrier. 

Vitamin E is a potent fat-soluble antioxidant that strengthens the skin barrier and protects the skin from sun damage and other sources of day to day oxidative stress.

Idebenone is a water-soluble analog of CoQ10, an anti-aging mitochondria antioxidant and electron carrier. Idebenone enters the mitochondria more readily than CoQ10. Studies have shown that idebenone can jumpstart the mitochondria, which reactivates your skin’s natural repair processes. A clinical study has shown that it reduces fine lines and wrinkles by 29% within 6 weeks of use. 

Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in your body. In your skin, it gives the elastic and youthful appearance. In a clinical study from France, 3% collagen peptides can significantly reduce the number and depth of wrinkles within 4 weeks. 

L-Lysine is an essential amino acid that is a building block of collagen. As a topical skin ingredient, it is an amino acid used in the crosslinking of collagen fibers. 

L-ornithine is an amino acid that doesn’t get used as part of proteins. It stimulates skin regeneration by supporting collagen production and increasing nitric oxide levels. 

L-glutamine is so important that it is the most abundant amino acid in the body. In the skin, it supports balanced immune function and regenerative processes that aid in skin repair. Glutamine also turns on collagen genes and works as a building block for collagen. 

Each jar is now 4oz, double the size it previously was for the same price, which is enough for an area the size of your face for one month when using it generously.

The cream is thin and spreads easily.

Because of its Liposomal nature, you do not need to apply as much as you would with a topical cream.

Certainly not a miracle. Be realistic in your expectations and judge our cream and your progress fairly. The amount of time our creams take to be effective varies for everyone, there are far too many factors to predict an outcome or a timeline.

A good thing to do is take a picture of your skin the day you get your cream, for your own records, so that in 60 days you can compare the progress > keep in mind you see yourself everyday in the mirror, sometimes smaller changes may go unnoticed for that reason.

The one common denominator among the customers who see the most success with our creams, is that they give them time to work. Most of our creams are Liposomal, meaning they work from the inside out at the cellular level to effect change. This is not always a fast process, nor is it always quickly visible, since its working from the inside out.

We have seen the creams be effective over and over and changed countless numbers of people's lives by helping provide them the confidence that comes from showing off their beautiful skin.

We're confident if you stick with us, and use the creams as directed you too can experience the results you're after.
