Grapeseed Extract Moisturizer (Proanthocyanidin Tissue Repair)
Grapeseed Extract Powder, (GSE) is made by drying, and pulverizing the bitter tasting seeds of red wine grapes. This Extract contains Oligomeric Proanthocyanidin Complexes ,(OPC) , Resveratrol, gallic acid, antioxidants, flavonoids among other ingredients. It is a deep red powder in its pure state. In a published study in the journal: Int. J. Cosm. Sci, GSE cream was evaluated In a clinical setting with 110 subjects.Among the positive benefits and applications researchers observed an improvement in skin appearance and elasticity, improved sebum content , decreased symptoms of aging and an increase in collagen synthesis. Further, other studies noticed a skin lightening effect and tightenened pores.
There are reports of UV protection, crease fighting properties, skin texture improvements, release of skin growth factors, and decreasing scar appearance. This is an extremely slimmed down list of skin benefits, to sum up the GSE cream can be expected to soften and smooth the facial skin. The GSE in the Aloha Skin Nutrition has been added to the tried and true Intense Moisturizer formula as an upgrade. The Intense Moisturizer cream is the Flagship Hyaluronic Acid cream of Aloha Skin Nutrition sold for 15 years. Intense Moisturizer Cream was formulated to mimic the benefit of Juvederm and Restylane without the expensive physician procedures. The synergism with the GSE is amazing.
Pharmaceutical grade Hyaluronic Acid acts as a magnetic sphere within the skin extending symmetrical spokes that retain cellular water and mimic youthful radiant skin.With continued use elasticity and hydration can visibly improve.. The electrical charge and size of Hyaluronic Acid molecules aid connective tissue function as a lubricant, and provides supportive structure stability. . By increasing moisture content in skin, vastly improved appearance can be obtained as well as thwarting dermal cell aging. This formulation offered by Aloha Skin Nutrition scrupulously avoids stock and trade cosmetic ingredients that are not clear of allergans,parabens,sulfites, and fragrances. Having the experience of providing Atopic Dermatitis Dermatolgy Departments with patch testing media gives an empiric approach to providing “CLEAN ” skin health care products. Cosmetic products can often contain “UNCLEAN ” inactive ingredients that are not compatable with themselves or indeed the active ingredient from whatever source obtained. Apply Grapeseed Extract cream lightly to skin that is dry either at bedtime or in the morning. Only a very thin layer is needed for optimal results. There is no need to apply a thick layer to skin. When you apply a thin layer you can see your facial skin thank you in response. As a yardstick for observable beneficial results, after one week of use, start counting the number of compliments you receive on your skin's healthy appearance. You will be pleasantly surprised.

“GLOW”
Using the base formula for Intense Moisturizer, the addition of two plant healing anti-inflammatory bioflavonoid extractives have been blended . First, the initial application of the silymarin , a bioflavonoid complex in a topical formulation has an impressive list of dermatologic applications that are too often overlooked in therapeutic settings. The Silymarin complex acts as a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent.It has been shown to delay signs of aging through a number of biological mechanisms.The Silymarin complex prevents glutathione destruction. Glutathione is a component of TPG (tripeptide glutathione a major detoxification pathway integral to cellular detoxification). Solar skin exposure is 95% UVA (315-410 nm wavelength) and 5% UVB (295-320nm wavelength). These wavelengths from the sun cause skin irregularities and redness (erythema) as well as photocarcinogenisis as well as Melasma. Melasma is a condition of the skin characterized by symmetrical gray to brown patches usually on the face mostly occuring in women. Traditionally topical Hydroquinone, Kojic Acid, Azelaic Acid along with trans-retinoids have been employed topically by dermatologists in the tteatment of Melasma. The success rate of these agents are variable and clinicians are often perplexed with results and often “tinker” with increasing concentrations of the ingredients to achieve any if at all beneficial results. Traditionally the mechanism of action of these agents (omitting retinoids) is to inhibit a tricky enzyme known as Tyrosine Hydroxylase (aka tyrosinase). When tyrosine is hydroxylated by this enzyme, it forms a Di-Hydroxy derivative which is the precursor to skin pigment Melanin. The over synthesis and deposition of the pigment Melanin is the sole cause of the condition known as Melasma. Melasma is ofter referred to as an acquired pigmentary disorder. The Silymarin complex through inhibiting skin lipid peroxidation and offering protection against skin catalase activity is a logical choice for amelioration of Melasma lesions, especially Melasma lesions unresponsive to other ineffective treatment modalities. The silymarin complex, employed topically can also soften and moisturize skin.
The green tea catechin ingredients as polyphenol flavonoids are anti inflammatory in nature but also increase skin cell water content. The ratio of viscoelastic to elastic skin moisture is improved leading to a prolonged moisturizing effect. A study also demonstrated benefit in the treatment of Papular Pustular Rosaceae. In fact there was a reduction in inflammatory lesions. There are presently scholarly evidence that Green Tea may inhibit Matrix Metalloproteinase Enzymes, whose overactivity of leads to degradation of the skin matrix. The formulation of these two potent heavy hitters in a “CLEAN” emollient vehicle engineered to maximize delivery was the mission statement of this product.
The result is a synergistic to the skin plumping effects of Hyaluronic Acid to regenerate even skin tones . Surface skin redness and ruddiness can be abated resulting in calm skin, hence the “GLOW”. The totipotential tissue repair can gradually restores skin to its youthful appearance.
