24K Gold
The ions present in gold help stimulate the skin’s cells, improving blood circulation and leaving skin with a dewy, glowing complexion. Gold assists in slowing down the depletion of collagen helping to reduce the visible signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles and loss of firmness. Gold is also known to have anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
Adenosine
Adenosine is a well-known molecule that is active in many cellular functions such as stimulating DNA synthesis, increasing protein synthesis, and cell size. This helps promote the production of collagen and elastin, which are the two most important proteins in the skin. They are responsible for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles that occur with aging.
Blueberries
The deep blue/purple colour of blueberries is a result of compounds called anthocyanins, powerful antioxidants that shield the skin against harmful free radicals. Free radicals break down skin cells and deplete collagen levels which are vital in helping your skin stay firm and healthy. Blueberries are high in antioxidants, nature’s fountain of youth. Antioxidants are vital in preventing the premature aging and skin damage caused by free radicals. Additionally, the phytonutrients in blueberries (organic plant compounds that are thought to aid in human health) can help curb skin cancer. Blueberries also help strengthen the vessel walls of the capillaries under the skin helping to prevent tiny red veins or “spider vines” from forming.
Portulaca Oleracea
Portulaca oleracea is rich in antioxidants that fight free radicals that cause premature aging and damage to healthy skin cells. Free radicals contribute to aging by breaking the skin's natural protective barrier. Portulaca oleracea is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids and proteins, it also has antibacterial properties.
