Antioxidants

Click here to learn more in-depth science behind vitamin C & antioxidants.

L-Ascorbic Acid

Vitamin C is a well-known potent antioxidant that assists in quenching free radicals, commonly triggered by exposure to UV rays and toxic environments.  Vitamin C does much more than just protect the skin cells.  It helps increase the immunity of the skin, protecting the skin against oxidative stress and depletion.  This potent ingredient is also an assistant in the production of collagen and has brightening and lightening support to photo-aged skin. 

Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate

Vitamin C may sometimes be irritating when applied topically.  This form of vitamin C is a non-irritating, more stable version with all the same benefits of ascorbic acid.  A powerful antioxidant that eliminates harmful free radicals, increasing cellular protection, while also boosting collagen synthesis and improving uneven skin tone.

Resveratrol

Have you had your wine and chocolate today?  Grape extract is rich in antioxidants known as polyphenols.  This antioxidant helps reduce the damaging effects of free radicals in the skin, reducing the signs of aging including fine lines and wrinkles.  

L-Glutathione

One of the most potent antioxidants available and it is found naturally within the cells of the body.  This ingredient helps reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and free radicals while also assisting in DNA repair.  It increases health and protection of cells!

Super Oxide Dismutase

This is naturally found within our bodies to assist in the elimination of free radicals.  Free radicals lead to an increase in oxidative stress and an increase in aging.  The application of this potent antioxidant helps protect against damage to delicate tissues, reducing inflammation and the damaging effects of free radicals due to UV exposure and toxic environments. 

Pumpkin Extract

Let the enticing aromas of this extract help increase antioxidant protection and rejuvenation in the skin.  Rich in vitamins A, C and E, this extract boosts defenses against harmful free radicals and toxic environments, while stimulating collagen synthesis. 

Phytic Acid

A natural antioxidant with chelating properties, it assists in binding harmful minerals which can lead to free radical damage in the skin.  This antioxidant also helps reduce oxidative stress, while leaving the skin with a brighter, more even complexion. 

Rhodiola Root

A natural herb, rhodiola root is rich in potent antioxidants called proanthocyanidins, the same antioxidants found in green tea, grape seed and bilberry extracts.  Rhodiola root has similar protection against free radicals as vitamin C, along with the ability to boost firmness and elasticity in the skin.
