Cellular Serum by Pure Skin Junkie

Macrocystis pyrifera is a sea macroalgae rich in caragenaan, algin, minerals and many active chemicals. Fermentation makes the cell contents of this algae readily available to your skin, moisturizing it and providing the nutrients required to synthesize new components. This is similar to the key ingredient (the Miracle Broth™) in Crème de la Mer. It is fermented by the same microorganisms that convert milk into yogurt.

What is Sea Kelp BioFerment?
Macrocystis pyrifera, the substrate in our bioferment, is a rich source of iodine, potassium and many essential minerals. It also contains organic chemicals like alginic acid, laminaran, laminitol, lutein, zeaxanthin, xanthophyll, violaxanthin, fucosterol, sulpholipids, inositol, phytol, phloroglucinol, aldobiuronic acid and much more. Plus, it contains fucoidans (see below).

Porphyridium extract - The extracellular polysaccharide produced by this red alga has sulfate groups attached to the backbone are also non-reducing terminal D-xylopyranosyl and galactopyranosyl residues. It is known that this polysaccharide has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and the xylitol residues may be responsible in part for the anti-inflammatory properties (we use xylitol in our anti-inflammatory cream).

Arthrospira extract - This extract provides extra nutrition: more proteins, carbohydrates, essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, carotenoids, and even some sulfolipids that seem to have antiviral properties. The anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties of this extracts make it an essential active for eczema, psoriasis and other skin affections.

Brown algae extract enriched in fucoidan
Fucoidans are sulfated polysaccharides with a structure that depends on the plant source, and growing conditions. Applied to the skin fucoidan will increase the density of collagen bundles, decrease activity of proteases (enzymes that break down dermal proteins), increase scavenging of free radicals and increase cell proliferation. These effects would be mediated through increased expression of integrin a2ß1 and may also help with wound healing.
In addition to assisting in collagen synthesis, fucoidan inhibits the replication of many viruses, including herpes, human cytomegalovirus, HIV-1 and others. Fucoidan has been shown to inhibit the binding of the bacteria Helicobacter pylori (involved in human ulcers) to stomach epithelial cells.

glutaredoxin

Methods for the prevention and treatment of skin damage arising from the exposure to UV radiation, air pollution and other stressors capable of leading to the formation of free radicals, using the small dithiol protein glutaredoxin in a dermatologically acceptable carrier that can be applied topically are disclosed. Some embodiments may include other proteins such as superoxide dismutase and/or catalase, as well as other antioxidant molecules such as reduced glutathione, vitamin E, vitamin C, lycopene, astaxanthin and/or tocotrienols.

Glutaredoxin seems to provide antioxidant protection in human coronary arteries and placental function against the oxidative stress caused by pre-eclampsia and may even protect cerebellar granule neurons from dopamine-induced programmed cellular death. Glutaredoxin may also help catalyze the regeneration of ascorbic acid

Selenomethionine, a form of the amino acid methionine in which sulfur has been replaced by selenium, is a common food source of selenium and also the optimum carrier of this essential nutrient to your skin. It has been shown that selenomethionine has anti-melanoma activity.Selenomethionine seems to inhibit broad band UVB-induced p53 transactivation and protein accumulation and this effect correlates with reported protective effects of selenium against UV-induced DNA damage. This effect is also reflected in reduced inflammation and pigmentation and by later onset and lesser incidence of skin cancer.

Antioxidants are produced in the body to work in your skin 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Inflammation, which utilizes antioxidants, can result from stress, what you eat, most lighting sources, and of course, excessive sun exposure. This results in a slow degradation of the quality and thickness of the skin because the antioxidants cannot keep up with the rate of damage (aka “aging”). It is essential to reduce this aging process at all times of the day which is why this product is such a necessity. Cellular Serum combines the most effective antioxidants, purified to their most active state (chirally-correct), coated in nano-liposome technology, all in a potent formula that addresses the different types of free-radicals created in your skin. The key to this serum’s effectiveness is the use of natural, chirally-corrected antioxidants that the skin recognizes because it utilizes them every day through its natural defenses. Rather than interfering with the natural process of repair, Cellular Serum, with its high percentage of active ingredients, works perfectly with its antioxidant partners in the skin. The formula is enhanced by nano-technology using liposome coating on every one of the 12 powerful antioxidants. This protects the delicate antioxidants from oxidation, improves the penetration dramatically, (which makes every antioxidant more effective) while hydrating and protecting the skin.
