Q-Strixin Micro-Active Emulsion is a new generation anti-aging formulation that restores, rejuvenates and revitalizes photo-aged skin. Photo-aging occurs when the underlying collagen and elastin support breaks down from continued exposure to the sun, cigarette smoke and pollution. This results in the skins’ foundation becoming, wrinkled and hyperpigmented. The superior benefits and results obtained with Q-Strixin Micro-Active Emulsion are due to its highly specialized ingredients.

Key ingredients

Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-3 and Palmitoyl Oligopeptide are known to stimulate cell growth, reduce the depth, length and volume of wrinkles, increase skin thickness, decrease overall skin roughness, help correct discoloration and repair sun damaged skin.

Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, originally used in wound healing, this ingredient consists of a group of amino acids linked together and attached to a fatty acid structurally related to the precursors of collagen type 1. Researchers have found that when added to a culture of skin cells, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4stimulates the synthesis of the key constituents of the skin matrix: collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycans. Clinical studies have shown a dramatic improvement in skin smoothness and decreased wrinkle depth in test subjects. A four-month study comparing Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-3 to Retinol, showed the peptide yielded similar dermal thickening as the Retinol, but without any negative side effects.

Palmitoyl Oligopeptide is a synthetic protein, made up of a fragment of collagen and palmitic acid. The palmitic acid is used to make collagen more lipophillic, making it more compatible with the human skin. Developed through intensive research, Palmitoyl Oligopeptide was the result of an effort to create a substance that would act like retinoic acid without the negative characteristics and irritation.

Siegesbeckia Orientalis Extract
This ingredient has been shown to be beneficial in restructuring the collagen matrix, aiding in wound healing and tissue regeneration. This helps to normalize the appearance of scars and stretch marks while restoring elasticity to the skin. Clinical studies on its application for stretch marks show a 52% decrease in length and indentations, a 12.9% decrease in depth, and a 13.7% increase in smoothness, texture, color and tone.

Emblica
This is the trade name for the extract from the tannin-rich root Phyllanthus Emblica, which has been used for centuries in Aryuvedic Medicine. Studies have shown Emblica to possess powerful, broad-spectrum antioxidant properties. In addition, Emblica is extremely stable and is not subject to photodegradation. One of Emblica’s most exciting applications is as a skin lightener. While most skin lighteners have toxicity issues or can cause negative reactions on the skin, Emblica is well tolerated without any known negative side effects.

Directions for Facial Rejuvenation: For use on the face to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, also improving skin tone and fitness.

Apply a small amount of Q-Strixin Micro-Active Emulsion to the targeted areas once in the morning and again before bedtime. It may be used up to three times a day for faster results. Gently massage into the skin using circular motions until it is fully absorbed. Apply prior to makeup, moisturizer or sunscreen. Continue to use twice daily for a minimum of 8 weeks. For continued maintenance use once daily after you achieve desired results.


What About Stretch Marks?
Stretch marks (Striae) develop when the skin is excessively pulled, damaging the collagen fibers and proteins within the deepest layers of the skin called the dermis. This is most often due to excessive weight gain. These resulting stretch marks become thick, visible, unsightly scars.

As a result of using Q-Srixin Micro-Active Emulsion for several weeks you should notice the indentations associated with stretch marks appear smoother while the discoloration begins to blend with your natural skin tone making the stretch marks much less visible.

Directions for improving the appearance of stretch marks:
Cleanse and dry the area to be treated. Apply Q-Strixin Micro-Active Emulsion in the morning and evening before bedtime. It may be used up to three times a day for faster results. Massage cream into the skin with circular motions until it is fully absorbed.
