Chemyunion has developed Iselight, an active chemical that rejuvenates the skin and reduces the signs of aging. It is a natural, plant-based active chemical that is free of preservatives.
Improves Skin Tone & Reduces Spots
It is composed of a synergetic combination of Myrothamnus flabellifolia extract, a resurrection plant commonly used in traditional African medicine, and Coffea arabica extract, an important source of antioxidants obtained through upcycling.
Due to its innovative mechanism, Iselight shows high-performance results, including:
-
Improved homogeneity in facial skin tone by 42% after 28 days
-
Reduced contrast between the spot and the skin by 37% after 28 days
-
Improved homogeneity in hand skin tone by 63% after 56 days
-
Reduced average size of spots on the hands by 26% after 56 days
-
Up to 50% improvement in skin texture uniformity (anisotropy)
Aging & Its Mechanism
The signs of aging are formed by increased melanin and excess lipofuscin within the cell. Lipofuscin is a response to cell aging, in which the organism loses some of its capacity to “clean” or recycle cells, leading to excess “waste” caused by free radical molecules.
This demonstrates that the human organism has a natural disfunction in cell regeneration, causing aging spots to appear. So can safely say that aging is not caused simply by external factors.
Since this is a biological issue, studies show that stimulating autophagy (a natural cell recycling process) is one way to help treat signs of aging. The main purpose of this mechanism is to degrade macroproteins and damaged organelles, generating substrates and energy to create new components.
However, autophagy is not enough to prevent the formation of lipofuscin. The proteasome is another sophisticated mechanism of cells, and it’s just as important as autophagy, due to its ability to renew smaller, damaged proteins.
After researching the best ways to improve cellular metabolism and act upon the root cause of aging signs, the company developed Iselight, whose action mechanism can stimulate both autophagy and proteasome activity.
