Coenzyme Q10 Nanoparticles 20mls
Coenzyme Q10 is a powerful antioxidant and cell energiser, boosting production of collagen, elastin and other skin molecules which are important for healthy skin.
Coenzyme Q10, also called Ubiquinone, is a nutrient that is naturally present in our skin cells and also our surface skin lipids but our natural levels decline as we age. By the time you are in your 40's you will have about half the amount of this nutrient that you had in your 20's. Stress will also lower levels of CoQ10, as will UV exposure and pollution. If levels fall below optimum it results in the skin being less able to produce collagen, elastin and other important skin molecules required for healthy skin.
Coenzyme Q10 is essential to cell functioning, cell division and cell regeneration because it helps with the synthesis of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) our cellular energy production. Increasing the amount of ATP available gives an energy boost to the skin and helps it to function more like youthful skin.
CoQ10 is a fat soluble antioxidant so it helps prevent free radical damage to the skin's surface lipids, proteins and cellular DNA which makes it an important anti ageing enzyme. Applying Coenzyme Q10 topically will improve the antioxidant capacity of the epidermis, helping to neutralise free radicals and keep cells in the skin healthy. As it has a small molecule it can penetrate in to skin cells relatively easily.
Studies have shown that topical treatment with CoQ10 can increase levels within the skin.

A few drops may be used neat like a serum after cleansing and before moisturising.
It can also be blended with a few carefully chosen Actives and added to one of the Prescriptive Moisturisers or the Prescriptive Serum.
BENEFITS
Increases cellular energy. Helps keep the skin cells actives and energised by assisting in the production of Adenosine Triphosphate/ATP
Boosts microcirculation, improves oxygenation of the tissues and helps your cells to detoxify
Increases cellular turnover
Helps to reduce signs of ageing and maintain a more vibrant looking skin by helping to repair damaged skin cells and preventing free radical damage
Promotes the production of collagen and elastin and protects the collagen from damage after sun exposure so impacts the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
Provides anti-oxidant protection by acting as a free radical scavenger
Helps protect from UV damage
Helps even out skin tone and reduces dullness
Helps the skin retain moisture
Free from emulsifiers, perfume/fragrance chemicals, silicones, colouring/dyes, mineral oils, sodium lauryl sulphate, preservatives, amines.
