The key to skin rejuvenation is synergy. Skin Actives is skincare synergy
Why synergy?
“Synergy is an interaction or cooperation giving rise to a whole greater than the simple sum of its parts.” The term synergy comes from the Attic Greek word συνεργία synergia from synergos, συνεργός, meaning “working together.”
Most advertising for skincare products tells you about a (secret, new, magical) ingredient that will make all the difference. This is, scientifically speaking, rubbish! Let me explain. Suppose we are discussing one of the ingredients that approximate most a “miracle,” epidermal growth factor. There are thousands upon thousands of scientific articles describing many more experiments documenting how EGF influences the skin. And yet, EGF will do nothing unless the cell its influencing has the wherewithal to follow the instructions. The cell will need, first of all, energy, in the form of ATP, plus amino acids required to make new proteins that will allow the cell to grow and multiply. It’s called “food”.
What’s the main difference between Skin Actives Scientific and most other brands? The “scientific,” yes, but this is a way to look at skincare products that integrates all that it’s know about how cells work. This is why Skin Actives products are so complex, not in choosing fragrances (which we don’t use) but in making sure that the ingredients in the mix will complement each other and allow the product, as a whole, to do its job.
Another difference is that we use complex proteins, like epidermal growth factor and antioxidant proteins, which facilitate skin healing and provide protection. But we made those proteins, allowing our finished products to perform even better. We also provide these pure and super-active proteins to other skincare companies that understand how skin cells work.
This is why our skincare products are the best in the world: it’s good basic science applied to skincare. Our tax dollars, used for scientific research at the best universities, are finally doing something good for your skin.
