4)     NEW in 2006! THE OPTIMAL SKIN CARE WAS CREATED TO:

iv)         To improve water retention in the skin and to avoid the harmful effects of preservatives while creating younger and healthier skin using “Hyper-enhanced Wellness Water”.

v)          The following is a list of the main active ingredients utilized in the Optimal Skin Care System (Lotion, serum, skin cream, eye cream and after-shave milk).

These ingredients protect the skin from two primary factors of aging:

            a.  Natural aging – hormone

            b.  Photo-aging – UV rays

1.    Florentina Root Extract (Isoflavon) - after reaching its peak in the early 20’s, the female hormone decreases rapidly between the age of 40 to 50 and the skin starts showing signs of aging. Isoflavon is extracted from the root of Iris Florentina found in the Mediterranean region, acts to create beautiful skin by hormonal activity, inhibit the activity of collagenase and elastase (enemies to healthy skin), and promote the synthesis of the basement membrane and laminin 5.

2.    Hypotaurine (anti-oxidant – not found in eye cream) – a derivative of taurine, which is used as a pharmaceutical additive, is present in human skin and eyes. Hypotaurine acts to prevent hyaluronic acid (which retains water in cells and protects cells) from being dissolved by hydro-oxyradicals, to control the activity of elastase and reduce the depth of wrinkles.
