For those who desire youthful neck and decollate areas, this product is a must have. Reduce the appearance of sagging skin, firm and tighten horizontal lines, moisturize and lift. Necklevate will do all the aforementioned.
The key to a youthful appearance is a smooth neckline. Over the years, the adhesion between the epidermal and dermal cells is reduced, which results in lost skin elasticity. The active peptides in this formulation promote the appearance of a strong dermal epidermal junction (DEJ).
How it works:
Leveraging myristate as polar emollient to enhance the antioxidant effects of Squalane, this formula will create the appearance of a lifted and smooth neck and decollate. Hexapeptide-1 is effective for improving the appearance of skin tone and elasticity and is known to improve skin hydration, resulting in a more youthful appearance. This formula is great for improving the appearance of sagginess in the neck area.
As we age, the effects of time and experience become increasingly pronounced. Wrinkles and expression lines expose our age and significantly alter our appearance. Fortunately, we can reduce the appearance of aging by using powerful tightening and lifting ingredients in a remarkable topical treatment that offers visually stunning results in an instant. This is a miraculous lifting and tightening gel-based formula that produces this instantaneous illusion of age reversal. Age Expression Eliminator is a complex blend of peptides, antioxidants and hydration that ensure a more youthful complexion in an easy to apply, portable solution.
This remarkable product is carefully formulated with a composite blend of five peptides in a gel base that help reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the face. Hyaluronic Acid is infused into the Age Expression Eliminator for its hydration retention capabilities. Naturally present in the human body to provide structural support for cells, when topically applied to the skin, Hyaluronic Acid binds to moisture, creating the full and youthful appearance of the skin.
In addition to the tightening and moisture retention benefits, Acai Fruit Extract is supplemented to give the skin an antioxidant boost. Polyphenols within the Acai Palm Extract help to defend the skin from environmental aggressors that cause further aging and damage.Minerals work by forming a “glass-like” effect on the skin. Tube provides enough applications for 1-2 months of use, depending on the frequency of application.
There is a sensual femininity to long lashes. The fluttering twinkle of eyes adorned with long flowing filaments embodies a bashful and innocent appeal that most men find irresistible. When you have naturally long and thick lashes, there is no need to cake on mascara, glue on flimsy fakes or seek radical lash surgery. Simply growing them out is the safest and most natural route to beautiful batting lids.
This Lash Proliferating Serum is a brilliant and natural lash conditioner that stimulates the natural growth of eyelashes by using a powerful peptide ingredient and Grape Stem Cell Extract in a nutrient rich serum. This peptide specifically acts on the skin cells of the lashes to help the body build a sturdier foundation and positively influence the cell proliferation of lashes. Safe and highly effective, this incredible solution helps eyelashes appear longer, fuller and wider.
This Lash Proliferating Serum uses a peptide called Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17. This is a botanically derived peptide that increases the proliferation of lashes by nourishing the cellular foundations from which the lashes grow; much like watering and nourishing soil in order to grow a plant.
It influences the keratin genes which moderate the length and size of lashes. By acting on these genes, Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17 helps stimulate hair growth at the lash follicle.
This formula also contains stem cells from a grape of the purple colored Gamay variety. These grape stem cells contain special epigenetic factors and metabolites that protect human skin stem cells against harmful UV radiation (one of the most aging elements).
By helping skin stem cells protect their main stem cell characteristics, this ingredient allows for superior protection of the eye lashes, ensuring long lasting effects and healthy cells.
This Vitamin C, B, E and Ferulic Serum is a comprehensive antioxidant super serum that takes advantage of each of the unique antioxidant delivery methods and chemical interactions to combat oxidative stress and provide additional hydration and help even skin tone.
This scientific compatibility and enhancement that these selected ingredients provide help combat oxidative stress on multiple levels for a deeper more satisfying antioxidant treatment than any one ingredient on its own.
Synergy is the solution to extracting the very best abilities from selected ingredients. This Vitamin C, B, E & Ferulic Serum uses remarkable antioxidant ingredients to ensure that the whole is indeed greater than the sum of its parts. Ferulic Acid is an organic compound commonly found in plant cell wall components, such as nuts. As an antioxidant, it actively fights free radicals. Free radicals are a significant contributor towards oxidative stress, which results in DNA damage and cellular aging. When combined with Vitamin C and Vitamin E, Ferulic Acid increases its ability from fighting free radicals to reducing damaged caused by oxidative stress. Vitamin C, also known as Ascorbic Acid, helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Vitamin C, also known as Ascorbic Acid, helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. As a potent antioxidant, it fights free radicals and reduces oxidative stress. We use 20 percent Vitamin C stabilized by the Ferulic Acid. Thanks to this high percentage, it also helps to reduce the appearance of dark spots. Vitamin E, like Vitamin C, is a powerful antioxidant. It helps protect skin from scarring and age spots and helps increase the skin’s hydration levels. Vitamin C and E can regenerate each other, optimizing each other’s antioxidant effects.
Studies have found the skin protection benefits to be more effective when using a combination of both Vitamin E and C, rather than by using each vitamin alone. To decrease the appearance of dark spots, we have added Vitamin B3 (Niacin). Vitamin B3 is an excellent active that reduces the visibility of melanin.
Finally, we have included Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid) as a rejuvenating vitamin that has good skin penetration and also improves hydration levels in the skin. With all these ingredients working together this vitamin-loaded formula delivers the full scope of antioxidant care.For more information on any of our skincare products or pricing, please call our office at 912-644-0744.
