| DMAE |
DMAE (Dimethylaminoethanol)
Also known as Deanol, DMAE enhances water retention in con-
nective skin tissue, causing the surface
of the skin to tighten.
It sends signals from nerves to muscles may promote a form
of muscle tightening in the
skin.. The molecule is an analog –
a structural derivative – of one of the B vitamins. It is also a
precursor of acetylcholine, that is, it is one of the molecules
used to build acetylcholine in cell metabolism. It
is clinically
proven to lift and that lifts and firms the skin. Soothing,
smoothing and strengthening of the cells.
One study (reported in the American Journal of Clinical Derm-
atology in 2005) measured DMAE benefits by comparing
a
group of volunteers using a topical gel containing the mole-
cule for 16 weeks, with a group who used a gel that
did not
contain deanol. At the end of the study, researchers found
improvement in wrinkles in the forehead, around
the eyes
and nose, and on the throat. The shape and fullness of the
lips also showed improvement. When the volunteers
stopped
using the gel for two weeks, the skin did not regress to its
former condition.
Recent studies involving a gel formulation containing DMAE
have shown that the compound can increase
skin firmness,
even in younger subjects. Thirty healthy adults between the
ages of 36 and
49 were given tests that measured changes
in skin tautness after application with the DMAE gel, com-
pared to placebo.
Results indicated that the placebo had
little or no effect on skin firmness, while the DMAE-treated
skin exhibited
greater tautness.

| CoQ10 MOLECULE |
CoQ10(Coenzyme Q10)
CoQ10 is an antioxidant that appears in almost every cell in
the body and helps to fight against free radicals.
The benefits
of CoQ10 are plentiful, especially since it is naturally found in
the energy-producing cells of the
heart.
CoQ10 quickly reduces the appearance of wrinkles, age spots
and many signs of aging, such as; fine
lines, puffy eyes and
dark circles. Studies have shown that CoQ10 may help increase
collagen and elastin
in the skin, and help repair damaged skin
cells.
CoQ10 may be more effective than other topical vitamin
treat-
ments because it is a small molecule that can relatively easily
penetrate into skin cells.
