“An apple a day keeps the doctor away” is how the old adage goes. But when it comes to skincare, a better way to say it might be: “An apple a day keeps… the fine lines, wrinkles and sunspots away.” It’s true! Apples are chock full of vitamins, natural acids and skin brightening compounds.
Check out some of these spectacular apple-sourced skin care ingredients:
- Malus Domestica (Apple) Plant Cell Culture (PhytoCellTec™) — Revolutionary breakthrough ingredient in skin care works against chronological aging. First topical product to protect human skin stem cells and delay natural aging process by maintaining the activity of skin stem cells. Triggers the skin’s cell potential for infinite regeneration while reducing wrinkle depth.*
- Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Extract (Applephenon™) — Shown to contain ten times the level of polyphenols found in ripe apples. Maintains youthful skin, rich in malic acid which refines and rejuvenates the skin, inhibits elastase (an enzyme that breaks down elastin protein) known to maintain healthy elastin fibers.*
- Malic Acid (L) (Apple) — Malic acid, an alpha-hydroxy organic acid, naturally occurs in apples and other fruit. Provides antioxidant actions, assists in skin exfoliation and cellular renewal. Functions as a skin pH adjuster.
Because of the many benefits that apples offer the skin, MyChelle has designed the Apple Brightening collection in the age spot/UV-recovery category to help rehabilitate the skin with potent, proven formulas to reverse the many signs of aging and unflattering sun damage. Our therapeutic products use apple plant stem cell technology to restore overall skin health, diminish discoloration and smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
So go ahead and give your skin some apple love with this healthy apple skin regimen:
- Gently cleanse away the look of discoloration and sun damage with Apple Brightening Cleanser. Malic acid and polyphenol-rich apple help maintain healthy elastin while reviving youthful tone and texture. Wash morning and night for 60-90 seconds.
- Give your skin a weekly treat with Apple Brightening Peel, a potent blend of apple fruit skin brighteners and retexturizers that combat and repair signs of sun damage while effectively restoring a youthful tone, texture and firmness. For youthfully vibrant skin, apply a thin layer 1-2 times per week after cleansing. Avoid the eye area. Allow your skin to soak in the benefits for 3-5 minutes. Slight tingling may occur. Rinse with lukewarm or cool water.
- For radiantly beautiful skin, apply two pumps of Apple Brightening Serum after cleansing. This advanced formula combines clinically proven ingredients to rapidly diminish the appearance of discoloration and sun-damage. Apple plant stem cells trigger skin’s natural regenerative process while reducing line depth up to 15 percent in just 4 weeks. Breakthrough peptide Melanostatine®5 interrupts the reaction that causes hyperpigmentation to deliver a 33 percent improvement in skin’s tone and clarity.
- With eyes closed, hold Apple Brightening Mist 12 inches from your face and mist after cleansing and applying serums. This refreshing mist hydrates and diminishes the look of discoloration. Applephenon™, rich in high ORAC antioxidant value, provides protective effects against oxidative stress, while Belides™ Daisy Flower brightens the complexion and helps alleviate the look of hyperpigmentation.
- For a lustrous and even-toned complexion, apply a quarter-size amount of Apple Brightening Cream to face and neck morning and night after cleansing, applying serums and misting. Follow with sun protection during the day. This luxurious cream powered by apple plant stem cells and daisy flower extract delivers a luminous and even-toned complexion. Rich in Antioxidants to hydrate and plump, your skin will look radiant and healthier.
- Repair and avert photo-damage brought on by the sun’s aging rays while maintaining protective moisture with Replenishing Solar Defense SPF 30. ZinClear™ non-opaque Zinc Oxide provides natural protection against both UVA and UVB, without harsh chemicals. A blend of kukui and macadamia oils combine with red algae to reduce the look of lines and wrinkles brought on by environmental stress. For daily use, allow product to absorb completely before applying makeup. Apply liberally 15 minutes before sun exposure and reapply at least every 2 hours.
For best results, use the entire Apple Brightening collection, and if you want to get ahead of the game and stop damage before it starts, remember to use your favorite MyChelle Sun Protectant year round.
