The new Ultra Rejuvenex®
is an extraordinary youth-promoting face cream that contains
potent amounts of green and white tea extracts. An abundance of
scientific studies reveal that tea extracts provide protection
to the skin.
Independent studies show that green tea can prevent DNA damage.1
Even more exciting is the effect of tea extract on aging human
skin. When topically applied, green tea helps maintain
structure-supporting cells.*
Free radicals inflict tremendous damage to the skin, resulting
in age-related alterations. One reason why sunlight accelerates
aging is because it depletes the skin’s natural antioxidants.
When green tea extract is applied topically, it can prevent the
reduction of natural antioxidants such as glutathione by as much
as 100%.
A major cause of wrinkling is the cross-linking (glycation) of
the skin’s proteins. Topical application with green tea extract
reduces protein glycation by as much as 75%.2
Beta-hydroxy acids
Alpha-hydroxy acids were long ago documented to remove coarse
dead cells at the skin’s surface, thereby exposing the
youthful-looking cells beneath. Some people, however, experience
irritation using large amounts of these acids. To resolve this
problem, the amount of alpha-hydroxy acids in the new Ultra Rejuvenex®
has been reduced and beta-hydroxy acids have been added. The
beta-hydroxy acids remove dead cells at the skin’s surface,
without causing irritation.
Hyaluronic acid, alpha-lipoic acid, and beta-glucan
Youthful skin contains an abundance of hyaluronic acid. This
viscous protein forms part of the structural support scaffold
beneath the skin. In the epidermis, hyaluronic acid helps the
skin retain moisture. The new Ultra Rejuvenex®
contains more hyaluronic acid in a patented QuSome™ liposome
delivery system for deeper penetration.
When the mitochondria are metabolically compromised, skin cells
cannot perform youthful repair functions. Alpha-lipoic acid is a
potent antioxidant that helps maintain the health of the
mitochondria.* Alpha-lipoic acid also helps to inhibit an
inflammatory messenger called nuclear factor kappa beta that can
severely damage skin.* As we grow older, the accumulation of
glycated collagen can result in visible skin aging. Alpha-lipoic
acid facilitates the enzymatic disposal of glycated collagen.
The new Ultra Rejuvenex®
contains more alpha-lipoic acid.
Beta-glucan is a specialized yeast cell wall extract that helps
support the skin’s immune status and repair processes.* Few
people realize that maintaining the skin’s immune function also
helps retain one’s youthful appearance. More beta-glucan has
been added to the new Ultra Rejuvenex.®
Vitamins for the skin
Scientific studies substantiate the skin-rejuvenating effects
of topically applied antioxidants, especially vitamin C. When
applied topically, the ascorbyl palmitate form of vitamin C has
potent free radical-quenching effects, while ascorbyl phosphate
has been shown to nourish collagen strands.* The new Ultra Rejuvenex®
contains both of these forms of vitamin C.
The new Ultra Rejuvenex®
provides optimal potencies of the best-documented
skin-restoration agents. Key ingredients in the new Ultra Rejuvenex®
are encased in a patented QuSome™ delivery system. This system
enables the ingredients to reach the lower layers of skin where
they are released gradually to protect and enhance cellular
metabolic function.
Dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE) helps stabilize cell membranes,
which is especially crucial to the skin’s supporting foundation
of collagen and elastin.* The new Ultra Rejuvenex®
provides a potent dose of DMAE.
The pioneering work of Benjamin S. Frank, MD, showed that RNA
(ribonucleic acid) improves cellular energy and the movement of
youthful cells to the skin’s surface, where they replace older
cells. Clinical trials by Elizabeth Arden, Inc., demonstrated
how creams containing RNA/DNA caused a visible lifting and
tightening of the skin, while the wrinkles appeared to be less
visible in just 21 days. The new Ultra Rejuvenex®
contains cell-renewing RNA.
The new Ultra Rejuvenex®
is the only cream in the world that provides a complete
moisturizing complex, including NaPCA, lactic acid, and urea,
all of which are lost in the dry, wrinkled skin of older people.
Patented Ceraphyl® NGA is
included because of its ability to prevent dry crystals from
forming in the lipid layer of the skin. This enables moisture to
be restored so that cells in the bilipid layer behave like young
cells.
Cumulative daily sunlight exposure results in significant skin
damage and premature aging. The new Ultra Rejuvenex®
contains avobenzone, octyl salicylate, and micronized zinc oxide
for minimum protection against sunburn.
With 28 active ingredients, the new Ultra Rejuvenex®
is by far the most potent and comprehensive skin cream on the
market. It should be applied to the face every morning before
your first encounter with the sun. It readily penetrates the
skin and can be worn under makeup.
