Myoxinol, Phytomelatonin, Ghee, Goat’s Milk, and Chocolate
- Myoxinol® This topical neuropeptide is a natural alternative to the traditional botulism toxin injectables such as By working with the skin’s natural processes, it mimics the same mode of action as other neurotoxins by inhibiting muscle contraction, relaxing the muscles and reducing the appearance of expression lines in the skin but does so in a gentle, natural way.
Botox without a needle!
What is it? Myoxinol® is a complex of oligopeptides obtained by biotransformation of native proteins from the seeds of the Hibiscus esculentus L. (okra). It protects from free radicals and oxidative stress, while smoothing the appearance of lines and wrinkles. When combined with antioxidant-rich polysaccharides from the ingredient prickly pear this power pair allows your skin to not only have less wrinkles, but it looks brighter and plumper.

- Phytomelatonin Most likely you haven’t heard of this revolutionary anti-aging ingredient yet. Very few products containing this compound exist commercially in the United States. Beware when manufacturers use the term phytomelatonin in the description. Look closer, most of those products are formulated from “synthetic” or “cow” melatonin and have little to no real plant extracts included. Currently costing on average $200 for a ½ ounce. As awareness and demand grows, major brands may consider beginning manufacturing true phytomelatonin thus leading to more competition, which hopefully will be reflected in a price decrease.
What is it?
Phytomelatonin is a molecule found in plants that regulates growth, development, and stress response of DNA cells. Used as an antioxidant, it can reduce mitochondrial electron leakage, scavenge free radicals, regulate enzymes related to carbohydrates, amino acids, and lipid metabolism. In non-technical terms…. Phytomelatonin helps reduce photo aging, while reducing wrinkles, UV damage and dark spots. Studies are also showing other positive internal health benefits.

- Ghee While the ingredient has Ayurvedic roots that go thousands of years back, many skin care brands are just now catching on to the major skin benefits of Ghee.
What is it? Ghee has been described as an almost “salve” for healing of the skin. Ghee is fortified with Omega-3-6-9 fatty acids as well as essential vitamins A, D, E and K. Careful churning of the ghee reduces the granular size and increases moisture levels. Its benefits can include softening and hydrating the skin, providing a natural glow, brightening skin tone and dark spots, repairing dry or damaged skin, reducing dark circles and treating cracked skin or lips.

- Goat’s Milk Naturally derived goat’s milk has many skin benefits. Most importantly is its ability to heal compromised skin conditions. The need to repair our clients’ skin barrier is growing rapidly because they are damaging their skin by using the wrong ingredients and products on their face.

- Chocolate Let’s FACE it — chocolate is one of life’s most decadent treats. No matter how you enjoy it — as a candy bar, in a hot drink, drizzled over ice cream — chocolate brings joy. I have been sweetening up my skin treatments with chocolate for a very long time. Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, it can dramatically reduce redness and irritation on the skin.
What is it?
If you don’t know, what chocolate is you must not be breathing, lol. Cacao is rich in antioxidants and flavonoids. The flavonoids help to neutralize free radicals caused by UV exposure therefore reducing their harmful effects on the skin. The antioxidants do wonders for oxidative stress and reduce environmental damage. These ingredients can also promote skin elasticity.
