Biology, Peptides And Serums
Understanding The Basics Of Our Formulas
Cosmetic serums are highly concentrated skin treatment products
Ingredients in serums are generally 10 times more concentrated and biologically active than in creams
Serums use powerful targeted ingredients of small molecular sizes in order to penetrate deeper and more quickly than creams
Serums are considered the primary vehicle to deliver supercharged ingredients
Why We Use Serums As Our Product Base?

Understanding Serums
Serums do not clog pores
Serums are generally selected to achieve a very focused result such as wrinkle reductions
They generally offer a single or limited action verses other products which use more ingredients at lower concentrations to try to tackle a large number of actions
Serums are designed to penetrate and not act as a moisturizing barrier therefore, clients with dry skin should apply a moisturizing layer after the serums have absorbed

SerumsSerums often seem miraculous because they show some of their beneficial results almost immediately and the visible changes can be very dramatic
Serums can be used by any age client from teen to adult
Serums can be matched to various skin types and conditions through ingredient selection
Serums vs Moisturizers
Moisturizers use ingredients with larger molecular
lipids topically and create a moisture barrier
Moisturizers leave a fine film on the surface of the skin whereas serums deliver their ingredients deeper into the tissue
Serums use more active ingredients which are targeted to change the characteristics of the skin
Once our serums have been absorbed a moisturizer can be applied if needed
Ingredient Categories
Natural Earth Harvested IngredientsNatural Lab Constructed IngredientsLab Synthesized Synthetic IngredientsAnimal Derived IngredientsBases For Creams And SerumsDelivery SystemsActive vs Inactive IngredientsPreservatives
Natural Earth Harvested Ingredients
Natural earth harvested ingredients include:Standardized botanicals, organics and wild crafted botanicalsExtracts, Essential Oils, PureesHerbsMinerals
Ingredients in their naturally harvested state are often notwell absorbed topically due to large molecular sizes andmay not be concentrated or specific enough to producenoticeable positive results on the skin
It is difficult to formulate sophisticated 100% organicproducts that can achieve our performance goals, but theuse of some organic ingredients can be a marketingadvantage
Natural Lab Constructed Ingredients
Natural lab constructed ingredients are copiedin the lab, on a molecular level, to mirror nature
Organic chemists build identical molecularreplicas of earth-natural ingredients except thatthey screened and designed to focus on aparticular function which will yield the targetedresults we are seeking
This includes many peptides, other aminoacids, vitamins, some anti-oxidants etc.
Most of our ingredients fit this category
Peptide Synthesis MethodologyGenerally a biomedical researcher willexplore the possibility of increasing thenative potency or performancecharacteristics of a given substance,such as a peptide.
Small amounts of the peptide are used.The amino acid chain is manipulated toachieve the desired characteristics,activity, potency.
A larger scale of the synthesis is thencreated in order to initiate studies.
Upon successful validation, a largerscale production synthesis is completed
Lab Synthesized Synthetic Ingredients
These are substances that are formulated or manufactured by a chemical process or by a process that chemically changes a substance extracted from naturally occurring plant, animal, or mineral sources, except that this does not apply to substances created by naturally occurring biological processes
These ingredients are specifically designed to perform a targeted function
Animal Derived Ingredients
Animal derived ingredients are chosen by most cosmetic manufacturers to produce certain results
Examples of this would be: albumen, whey, marine oils
Our products are never tested on animals
Bases For Creams And Serums
Base ingredients such as fattyalcohols, waxes, acids, fixatives,humectants, coloring, scents,binding, stabilizing and gellingagents help the formulator achievecertain characteristics in creamsand to a lesser extent serums.
Bases contribute to viscosity,moisturization, texture, feel, andhelp to bind certain ingredients tomake a smooth emulsion.
Delivery Systems
to a carrier such as a liposome
If your high-tech ingredient does not reach the intended target in the body it will not respond as intended
Our products rely on increasingly sophisticated delivery systems to put active materials exactly where they are needed most
Enhanced skin delivery enables our formulators to achieve targeted and timed release of actives and enhance the efficacy and delivery of the effective concentration at the required site of action
Enhancing penetration, makes the right delivery system critical in formulating hard-to-use ingredients
peptides, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C and other vitamins, collagen and essential fatty acids as well as many other ingredients
Active vs Inactive IngredientsAn active ingredient, is biologically active , it makes changes in the tissue or actsa catalyst for the body to act in a pre-determined way. It is responsible forproducing a desired effect. It gives the product its main characteristics
Materials that work physiologically within the skin or aid in protecting the skinfrom insult are also called active ingredients. Although a cosmetic, by legaldefinition, can only serve to beautify and protect the surface of the skin, manycosmetic products can be shown to penetrate the dermal layers of the skin toexact a physiological change. One must be careful to market only beautifyingaspect of a product
Peptides are an example of an active material They have the ability to penetratethe skin, where they can increase the production of collagen, elastin, andintracellular substances thus improving the appearance of the skin
Thousands of cosmetic actives are used to affect the skin in a variety of ways.Some are used to lighten, tighten, and firm the skin
Inactive ingredients are considered biologically inert and may serve as:the bases forming the products solution, waxes, emollients, coloringagents, fillers, diluents, preservatives, solvents, lubricants, etc.
Most skin care products contain primarily in-active ingredients and add only afew select active ingredients at low concentrations. Our products contain 95%-99% active ingredients, these are the highest concentrations in the market.
EmulsionsThe majority of creams and lotions are emulsions
liquid is dispersed as fine droplets in the other making it homogeneous
Homogenized milk is an example of a typical oil-in-water (o/w) emulsion. Using an emulsifier called sodium caseinate
The majority of emollients used in personal care and beauty items are fats and oils, also called lipids.
Some of the key characteristics required in good emollients are good spreading properties, low toxicity/skin irritation and good oxidative stability.
SurfactantsMost emulsifiers can be considered surfactants or surface-active agents.These materials are able to reduce the surface tension of water.Example: Washing a greasy pan (fat) is easy with soap, because thesoap (surfactant), binds to the oil, and emulsifies with the water, it pullsthe grease off of the pan.
Fatty acids that are reacted with an emulsifier can form soaps. Theprocess of soap formation is called saponification. The negativelycharged stearic acid group is the main emulsifying unit of the soap, givingit the anionic classification. Positively charged emulsifiers are calledcationic.
Nonionic emulsifiers are often used in skin-care emulsion for their safetyand low reactivity. Glycerin, commonly added to cosmetic emulsions forits humectant properties, is the backbone of a class of emulsifiers calledGlyceryl esters .
Stearic acid is a major component of many of the fats and oils used inbeauty treatments, stearate-based emulsifiers are particularly useful.Fatty acids are key components of many cosmetic emulsifiers due theirmiscibility in a variety of natural and synthetic oils.
Esters polyethylene glycol or ethylene glycol are called PEG esters. APEG ester's solubility is determined by the number of PEG moleculesreacted per molecule of acid. In a formulation, are typically usedfor slip and feel.
MoisturizersThe main distinction between moisturizers and emollients is their solubility in water. Healthy skin requires moisture. Moisturizers are generally polar materials that are hygroscopic in nature; they hold onto water
Glycerin is a very cost-effective ingredient used to help reduce transdermal water loss
Sorbitol, sucrose, glucose, and other sugars are also commonly used to hydrate the skin
Aloe, which contains a mixture of polysaccharides, carbohydrates, and minerals, is also an excellent moisturizer
Moisturizers lay on the surface of the skin and act as a protective barrier. But as a barrier they may block the penetration of other useful (ie. peptides) ingredients that need to reach deeper tissue levels to work
Waxes/ThickenersWaxes
Waxes are composed primarily of long-chain esters that are solid at room temperature. Common waxes used in cosmetics are beeswax, candelilla, carnauba, polyethylene, emulsifying, and paraffin.
Waxes function as structuring agents, adding rigidity and barrier properties. By combining waxes with different properties you can add shine, flexibility, and brittleness
Waxes are particularly useful in hand creams and mascara emulsions for their thickening and waterproofing properties.
Thickeners
By incorporating enough wax into a thin lotion, a thick cream can be formed. Many thickeners are polymers. Cellulose, swells in hot water creating a gel network. Carbopol, a polyacrylic acid, swells when neutralized. Carrageenan, pectin, and locust bean gum are also all examples of cosmetic thickeners
PreservativesMost cosmetic products require the addition of preservative to prevent microbial contamination and rancidity
Parabens and ester of parabenzoic acid are by far the most commonly used because of their effectiveness against gram-positive bacteria. We do not use this group of preservatives.
Phenoxyethanol is used to protect against gram negative strains.
The cosmetic chemist will generally employ a mixture of preservatives to protect against different bacterial strains as well as yeasts and molds
Antioxidants such as tocopherol (vitamin E) and BHT are also often added to prevent oxidation of sensitive ingredients as well as protect the skin from free-radical damage
Shelf life and product preservation is important to consider when the dynamics of ordering , stocking and distribution are being determined
Efficacy, safety , environmental acceptance and international compliance are all considered when we select a preservative
INCI NamesIngredients are required to be listed on labels in INCI compliant format
Ingredients are listed in quantity based descending order; listing the ingredient with highest concentration in the product first
INCI stands for the International Nomenclature Of Cosmetic Ingredients
an ingredient acceptable in both US and international markets
INCI names are a combination of scientific Latin names and the English counterpart. An example of Raspberry Extract would be Rubus Idaeus (Rasberry) Fruit Extract

PEPTIDE SERUM INGREDIENTS
Tripeptide-1- patented active peptide that helps the body substantially restore collagen levels.
Subjects studied from ages 35 to 55 showed a 29% wrinkle depth reduction in 30 days
Palmitoyl Oligo Pentapeptide - only a limited number of labs have access to this peptide due to patent restrictions. Stimulates the production of collagen and fibronectin promoting extracellular matrix renewal and cell proliferation.An in vivo (human based) study resulted in:the surface area of the deep wrinkles decreases by 68%, and in some cases was reduced by as much as 90%" the density of the main furrows: decreased by 47%" the area of the moderate wrinkles: decreased by 51%" the mean area of the main wrinkle: decreased by 22%
Stimulated the synthesis of the extra-cellular Matrix in vitro and ex vivo to very different extents:Collagen I : +117% Collagen IV : +327% It also stimulates the production of glycosaminoglycans: +267%.
Palmitoyl Oligo Pentapeptide Peptide #2
Peptide #2, (one of twelve peptides used in our products) is a fragment of the C-terminal portion of collagen I
synthesis of collagen I, collagen III and fibronectin
It has a more marked impact on low-density cultures of fibroblasts than on higher density, confluent cultures
This is relevant because it is closer to aging skin, which has a reduced population of fibroblasts
Deep Wrinkles Reduced By 68%-90%
The surface area occupied by deep wrinkles was reduced by a mean of 68% over 6 months and in some cases was reduced by as much as 90%The density of the main furrows: decreased by 47%The area of the moderate wrinkles: decreased by 51%The mean area of the main wrinkle: decreased by 22%
The concentration of this peptide in our products ranges between 8-16 times greater than the concentration used in this study

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (Argireline) Peptide #4
Peptide #4 was designed to reduce wrinkle depth caused by facial expressions (forehead and eyes)
It is a neuro-transmitter blocking peptide
It mimics the N-terminal end of Snap-25 which competes for a position in the SNARE complex
neurotransmitters that cause the muscle contractions which form a wrinkle.
Studies showed wrinkle depth reduction from use of this peptide, of 17% in 15 days and 32% in 28 days.
Silicone imprints were made for this study and measured by confocal profilometry
How It Works
Muscles are contracted when they receive neurotransmitters released from a nerve cell in a process known as neuronal exocytosis
The neurotransmitter involved is acetylcholine and it is released from a vesicle into the synapse
The process involves several proteins, channels and vesicles
The SNARE protein complex is essential for neurotransmitter release at the synapsis and mediates the final steps of exocytosis
It is a complex formed by three proteins: VAMP, Syntaxin and SNAP-25
This complex is like a cellular hook that captures vesicles (a process called docking) and brings them close to the membrane to enable their fusion
How It Works
Neuro-transmitter acetylcholine and it is released from a vesicle into the synapse
The SNARE protein complex is formed by 3 proteins, VAMP, Syntaxin, and SNAP-25 and it is essential for neuro-transmitter release at the synapse and mediates the final steps of exocytosis
Acting as cellular hook it captures vesicles and brings them close to the membrane to enable fusion
SNAP Bio-Chemical Mechanism
Botlinum Toxin ABotulinum Toxin A paralyses the muscle by selectively blocking acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction
BoNT-A cleaves the protein SNAP-25 irreversibly, and therefore the SNARE complex cannot assemble
The nerve signal cannot be relayed, the muscle cannot contract and it is paralyzed.
Destabilized SNARE Complex, Peptide #4
If the SNARE complex is slightly destabilized, the vesicle cannot release neurotransmitters. As a consequence, muscle contraction is attenuated and the muscle is relaxed
Peptide #4 is a mimic of the N-terminal end of SNAP-25 and it competes with the natural protein for a position in the SNARE complex, so it destabilizes its formation, without breaking any of its components
In Vitro Efficacy
Inhibition of glutamate releaseat mM concentrations is aclear indicator of the potentanti-expression wrinkle activityof the peptide.
Inhibition of glutamate releaseby depolarized neuron is avalidated cell assay formeasuring the potentialactivity of compounds on theinhibition of neuronalexocytosis.
Untreated neuron cultureswere used as a negativecontrol and cultures treatedwith Botulinum Toxin A (BoNT-A) were used as a positivecontrol

Stem Cell Serum
Using state of art technology to culture plant stem cells
Based on high-tech bioreactor plant cell culture technology, that was awarded the Innovation Award in 2008
First stem cell ingredient is from a rare apple, known for its longevityA study with our first ingredient with subjects between the ages of 37-64, showed a significant and visible decrease in wrinkle depth for 100% of the subjects by the 28 days. Study results showed that the CFE (colony-forming efficiency) was stimulated by 92% in the presence of 0.04% of the stem cell extract. This clearly showed an improved maintenance of the stem cell characteristics of epidermal stem cells.
Second plant stem cell ingredient is from a rare Gamay grape ,which has extremely high anthocyanins, this ingredient fights photo-aging and delays cell deathStudy results showed this stem cell extract to strongly increase CFE: the CFE was stimulated by almost 80% Clearly showing that it helps the epidermal stem cells maintain their stem cell characteristics.
Why Use Plant Stem Cells
Epidermal stem cells rejuvenate and promote the balance of cells in the skin and help to regenerate damaged tissue.
Aging reduces the number of stem cells in the skin and diminishes their ability to repair the skin.
Plant stem cells contain specific epigenetic factors that help to maintain the regeneration capacity of stem cells in the skin.
The result is a remarkable improvement in the appearance of the skin as well as a reduction in wrinkles, and protection against oxidative stress.

Inside Out Beauty Supplement Designed using three proprietary blends of the ingredients. The first is a powerful blend of amino acids which encourages the body to produce Human Growth Hormone. This hormone declines with aging and that loss results in a loss of energy, stamina, strength, muscle tone and skin tone, thickness and wrinkle formation. This blend can dramatically assist the body to achieve the vigor and characteristics of a more youthful state. The other two blends focus on adding anti-oxidants to the body to improve both health and beauty.
