Product Background

Youth 360 BCR is a synergy of four potent youth restoring extracts, providing a boosted 360 degree anti-aging effect.

• Collagen I & Ill stimulation helps to rebuild the extracellular matrix for a plumper and smoother skin surface
• Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) stimulation maintains skin tissue hydration
• Antioxidant activity fights free radicals
• Tyrosinase inhibition reduces melanin production and hyperpigmentation for a lighter and brighter skin complexion
• Elastase inhibition reduces elastin breakdown for improved skin firmness and elasticity
• SIRT inducer creates sirtuin that activates proteins, which prolong skin cell life
• Aquaporin 3 stimulation allows water to easily pass through cells for improved skin hydration and function

BioTransformation is a unique extraction technology that uses plant derived enzymes to simplify complex botanical actives so they are more easily assimilated by the skin. This sustainable methodology allows for the use of minimal plant material with maximum results.
