Chrysanthemum indicum and Green Tea (Camellia sinensis)
In 1988, Hylunia was the first and only company to base an entire skin care product line around the proven healing and hydrating properties of Hyaluronic Acid (HA), the most powerful humectant known. Double blinded clinical studies have shown that radiated wounds heal quicker with Hyaluronic acid.
Holding 1000 times its weight in water, Hyaluronic Acid is a key Component of the dermis. It effectively binds water to cells, and is responsible for the elasticity and resiliency of the skin. According to Dr. Brian Jegasothy, M.D., former Chairman of the Department of Dermatology at the University of Pittsburgh: “Hyaluronic Acid is possibly the most effective topical humectant currently available: more effective in its water retention properties than glycerin, sorbitol, collagen, etc.
In addition, its ability to associate with lipids in skin surface membranes greatly enhances its ability to deliver its retained water and enriches its property by reducing transepidermal water loss. Thus the characteristics of Hyaluronic Acid are vital ingredients in a skin care line for its exceptional efficacy.” In addition to using the highest pharmaceutical concentration of Hyaluronic Acid available, Hylunia also utilizes the sea plant Padina Pavonica to assist the body’s natural hyaluronic acid production for a smooth skin.
This bioflavonoid is 50 times stronger than Vitamin E and 20 times stronger than Vitamin C in its antioxidant properties. It is also known to strengthen the capillaries for those with telangiectasia, or (couperose skin). Taken internally for over 20 years in Europe, this ingredient minimizes the cytotoxicity induced by free radicals and UV radiation, and also reduces lipid peroxidation. Grape seed extract helps fight against redness of the skin due to rosacea and atopic contact dermatitis.
Ayurvedic, Chinese, Tibetan and other Eastern medical practitioners have found by experimenting for thousands of years that certain herbs, when blended in a specific ratio, work better than herbs used individually. US Advanced Medical Research applies this ancient Eastern wisdom by combining a rare synergistic blend of Green Tea (Camelia sinensis) and Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum indicum) that neutralizes free radicals, disrupts the inflammatory process, and stimulates microcirculation which aids in oxygen exchange.
Green Tea contains polyphenols and catechins which minimize cellular disintegration caused by uronikase inhibition and cellular proliferation that affect the epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR). The polyphenols in green tea are powerful neutralizers of dangerous free radicals, specifically targeting hydroxyl, oxyferryl and peroxide. Chrysanthemum was used for centuries to treat inflammation and headaches. Chrysanthemum indicum is an aqueous extract rich in specific flavonoids and two saponosides, and it also assists in product penetration. The high concentration of green tea and chrysanthemum provides skin with the most powerful anti-oxidants to protect against DNA alteration from sun exposure, free radicals, and cellular lipid peroxidation.
Cucurbitine, a plant peptide extracted from pumpkin seed, minimizes the inflammatory process that contributes to the aging of the skin. When the skin is exposed to irritating skin care ingredients, or to the sun’s UV rays, the mast cells defensively convert histidine to histamine. The plant peptide cucurbitine minimizes this conversion. Pumpkin seed extract also prevents the conversion of phospholipids, archidonic acid, prostoglandins and leucotriens in the cell membrane which cause inflammation.
This peptide complex minimizes eye puffiness and fluid retention under the eye. The Lipopeptide (Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7) decreases inflammation and improves firming and elasticity. Dipeptide-2 improves lymphatic circulation and Hesperidin Methylchalcone decreases blood capillary permeability. This ingredient is in the Eye Treatment and going to be in the new product Princess Formula for the Dark Circles.
Calendula is an annual or short-lived herbaceous perennial growing from 1 to 3 feet tall. Calendula is known for its powerful use as a wound-healing and skin-soothing botanical. It is a substance that promotes healing while having anti-inflammatory and weak antimicrobial activity. Calendula is usually used externally for its antiseptic and healing properties in treating skin infections, cuts, punctures, scrapes, burns and chapped or chafed skin or lips. Less commonly, it is used internally to heal inflamed and infected mucous membranes.
ABOUT HYLUNIA:
Since 1988, Hylunia has been dedicated to researching and developing skin care products that minimize irritation, inflammation and free radical damage. It has been known for many years that free radical/DNA damage leads to premature aging and can potentially lead to cancer. A five year study conducted by a respected dermatologist and published in The Journal of The American Academy Of Dermatology linked contact dermatitis (inflammation) to fragrance/parfum, parabens, lanolin and its derivatives, dyes and propylene glycol.
