BENEFICIAL INGREDIENTS Hyaluronic Acid acts as a binding, lubricating, and protective agent. Bee s Wax & Jojoba Oil softens and lubricates delicate skin around eyes. Copper is an essential mineral which complexes with the important skin protein called elastin. Elastin keeps skin tight and supple. When copper is depleted the skin becomes brittle and loses its elasticity. Copper is also important for the enzyme SOD (superoxide dismutase) which is an important enzyme to ward off premature aging and damage to the skin and joints. Zinc is an important mineral involved in protein synthesis, immunity, healing, respiration, and the enzyme SOD. Zinc helps the skin cells defend against invading bacteria to prevent acne and other skin ailments. Coenzyme Q10 is part of the mitochondria or energy factors in the body. This component of the cell makes ATP, the energy currency of all cells. Co-Q10 works with all the other B vitamins to fulfill this important step. This cofactor is extremely important for healthy, vibrant skin. Tocotrienols, as members of the Vitamin E family of nutrients, are powerful antioxidants. Tocotrienols prevent the destruction of the lipid part of the cell membranes and promote healing of damaged skin. But unlike ordinary Vitamin E, tocotrienols have highly unsaturated side chains which make them three to ten times more active as free radical scavengers and antioxidants. MSM is a natural component of all cells. It helps the skin to retain moisture, further reducing fine lines. MSM also scavenges free radical oxygen to prevent damage to healthy skin. Biotin is involved in the synthesis of skin components through its ability to transfer carbon residues. It promotes healing and healthier looking skin.
