RégimA Anti-Inflamm-Ageing- 50ml

Sensitive skin is characterised by an impaired skin barrier, with inflammation being triggered more easily, causing the skin to quickly become red, hot, itchy and inflamed. An inflammatory response to irritants is the body’s natural protective reaction, but unfortunately in the repeated responses of hypersensitive skins, this can come at the price of premature skin ageing. Inflammation, allergic responses causing itching, scratching and tissue damage can be disfiguring, cause physical discomfort and anxiety for the affected individuals, worsening quality of life. Chronic inflammation includes eczema, psoriasis, and even neurodermatitis. People may scratch affected areas during the day without realizing it.

They may also scratch whilst sleeping. Usually, neurodermatitis causes a skin outbreak that doesn’t get any bigger, but the irritated skin can grow thick and deeply wrinkled. Infections may also develop in the irritated areas. However, there is main emphasis on what is labelled ‘Sensitive Skin’, affecting a large number of people, and means even small stimuli trigger inflammatory and immune reactions, leading to a vicious circle: The inflammatory response triggers additional cell damage inducing a progressive deterioration of the skin barrier, creating substantial collateral damage. Sensitive skins can rapidly develop sensations such as burning, itching, tightening, reddening, which can result in subsequent scarring and, unfortunately, premature ageing.

TRIALS:
Trials – In-Vivo & In-Vitro were conducted on human volunteers on this and other patented substances within this product. in vivo means, literally, “in the living.” In biochemistry it indicates that an experiment is being done in conditions that precisely mirror those existing in nature, usually within a natural organism. in vitro, in contrast, means, literally, “in glass,” or “in a test tube.” It indicates an experiment carried out in an artificial environment (a laboratory), usually conditions that are intentionally simplified.

EXTRACT FROM THE BARK OF THE EPERUA FALCATA AUBL TREE (Part of a Patented formulation containing an aqueous extract from the bark).
This species is a dominant tree widely distributed in the Guyanese Rainforest. The bark and resin have been used traditionally for toothache and wound healing. Contains dihydroflavonols and catechuic tannins, which critically fight sub-chronic micro-inflammation, inhibit neuropeptides, essential in preventing neurogenic inflammation. Protects and reinforces barrier function, firming, toning, anti-sagging. Protects against oxidative stress and provides all important Anti-Inflamm-Ageing. 

PICHIA ANOMALA YEAST 
(Patented ingredient of Natural Origin – Eco-Friendly) Rich in yeast biopeptides, oligopeptides, regulates communication between cells to limit Inflamm-ageing. It promotes dermal matrix restructure. Preserves the functionality of the dermal-epidermal junction, increases elasticity and tone, providing a smoother, calmer, de-stressed skin with essential anti-inflammatory and anti-wrinkle activity – Result Anti-Ageing. Extensive testing performed on the active ingredient showed it to significantly improve the appearance of the skin. A total of 91 per cent of volunteers reported that their skin was more energised and more elastic on the area treated with the ingredient. In addition, almost 90 per cent of the volunteers perceived their lines and wrinkles were significantly less visible, and their skin smoother.

It is used effectively against inflammation and general irritations of the skin. Being very high in vitamin E, it acts as an emollient which traps moisture and keeps skin well hydrated. It also helps prevent damage to cells by ultraviolet light and aids against premature aging of skin by protecting the collagen and elastin content. Sunflower is a source for beta-carotene, which is converted to vitamin A with benefits of protection from sun damage and free radicals. Omega-6 (linoleic acid) which is found in sunflower oil, assists with cell development and treating disorders such as eczema, acne and scarring.

TRIALS: 
After 28 days of application of the combined patented ingredients, results showed significant restorative effects against age-related degradation of, loss of elasticity, firmness and tonicity involved in skin sagging. Proven to improve and protect the ability of the skin to act as a physical and mechanical barrier against exogenous factors.Chronic asymptomatic micro-inflammation appears strongly linked to the cutaneous ageing process. Results show that the formulation is able to inhibit the vicious cycle of inflammatory response, minimizing the visible signs of skin ageing.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
AM and/or PM: Cleanse with RégimA. Apply RégimA eye products and serums. Apply a thin layer of Anti-Inflamm-Ageing to the face under RégimA day and night products. When layering, do not apply too much as this would cause ‘balling’ of the creams.
