Bioelements Sleepwear - Comb. to Dry Skin - 1.5 oz.
Experience visibly smoother, firmer skin in just one night with Sleepwear. A miraculous overnight treatment, it infuses the complexion with a never-before-used scientific complex of topical calcium, time-released retinol, cranberry seed oil and protein peptides. This rejuvenating 'dream team' works all night long to rebuild firming collagen and elastin, replenish antioxidants, improve moisture retention and strengthen the skin's protective barrier layer. Plus, it blocks the production of damaging substances called 'MMPs' that cause wrinkles, sags and premature aging. This nutrient-rich night creme needs to be 'friction-activated' prior to application. Before applying to face, scoop a small amount into the palm of the hand and gently 'slap' 30 times in your palm to release the active ingredients. Immediately apply onto clean, dry skin.
Action:
Sleepwear's scientifically-advanced cosmeceutical formula works overnight to smooth and firm with topical calcium PCA, retinol and protein peptides. This never-before-used technology triggers barrier-repairing lipids from within to inhibit damaging enzymes called matrix metallo-proteinases (MMPs) which lead to sagging skin and wrinkles.
Directions:
This nutrient-rich night creme needs to be "friction-activated" prior to application. Before applying to face, scoop a small amount into the palm of the hand and gently "slap" 30 times in your palm to release the active ingredients. Immediately apply to clean, dry skin.
Key Ingredients:
- Topical Calcium PCA: Strenghtens epidermal cell cohesion and promotes the synthesis of lipids to strengthen the barrier layer of the skin and combat daily aggressors like stress, pollution, smoke and UV rays. Derived from vegetable sources, the calcium PCA in Sleepwear accounts for 12% of the NMF (natural moisturizing factor) of the skin which keeps it supple and moist. Calcium PCA also inhibits the release of MMPs that damage collagen and elastin.
- Cranberry Oil: Cranberry seed oil contains every component of vitamin E, and is a potent source of important antioxidants including tocotrienol also known as "super vitamin E". Topically applied tocotrienol has been clinically proven to accumulate in the upper five microns of skin, improving moisture retention. Cranberry seed oil also contains a high amount (more than 35%) of essential fatty acids (EFAs) including a 1:1 ratio of omega-3 linolenic to omega-6 linoleic fatty acids to keep skin supple and smooth.
- Retinol: Retinol is vitamin A in its purest and most active form. Sleepwear is supercharged with retinol that's loaded into a microparticle delivery system and time-released deep into the skin. This microparticle system protects the retinol molecules against damage from light, heat and oxygen. And, the "friction activation" technique for applying Sleepwear jumpstarts the release rate of retinol into the skin.
• Smoothes-out lines and wrinkles, increases skin moisture content, improves elasticity and skin structure, normalizes the physiology of the epidermis and repairs cellular damage.
- Protein Peptides (Polyglycerl Methacrylate [and] Palmitoyl Oligopeptide): The protein peptides used in Sleepwear have a skin penetration rate 10 times higher than average, and clinical studies show that they stimulate the synthesis of collagen by more than 300%. They also protect and repair collagen promoting a 4% thickening of the dermis. This results in a marked anti-wrinkle effect leading to a significant (23% - 39%) reduction in the length and depth of wrinkles and lines within one month of usage. They also stimulate the synthesis of hyaluronic acid in the connective tissue by 146%, aiding in the restructuring of the skin and the repair of environmental damage.
