Future-Proof Engineered Skincare
When it comes to skincare, it’s important to always be at the forefront of new technology and innovation. That’s why we take such great pride in researching new beneficial ingredients and developing new products. Our latest innovations are The Max Wrinkle Smoother and The Max Contour Crème, both of which target signs of aging to reduce the appearance of wrinkles all over the face, including along the forehead, cheeks and eye area. These products also help improve the look of tone and skin laxity, making areas that are most prone to sagging — like the jawline — appear firmer. With regular use of this serum and cream, skin can become overall smoother, revealing a younger-looking complexion. Read on to learn more about our the Most Powerful Wrinkle Fighters in our collection!
The Max Wrinkle Smoother
This serum combines a powerful peptide, high-tech lifting polymer and plant stem cell technology to dramatically soften the appearance of wrinkles. Key ingredients include:
- Acetyl hexapeptide-1 – This is a peptide that specifically targets the appearance of wrinkles and common expression lines like frown lines and crow’s feet. Peptides are chains of amino acids that serve different functions, including making skin look firm and smooth.[1]
- Sweet Iris – An aromatic, sacred plant, sweet iris can improve the appearance of sagging skin by making it look firmer, tighter and more toned. It works due to the plant stem cells derived from its leaves (plant stem cells are a new frontier in skincare with much promise in targeting signs of aging).[2] Wrinkles look less noticeable thanks to this remarkable ingredient that has research to back it up.[3]
- Caesalpinia Spinosa Fruit Extract & Kappaphycus Alvarezil Extract – These ingredients are a fruit and red algae extract. Together, they create a mesh-like network to strengthen skin and make it appear tighter and more lifted. Marine algae, like red algae, is used in many cosmetic products because of its ability to improve the appearance of wrinkles and dark spots or hyperpigmentation and to provide protective antioxidant support.[4]
*It’s also important to note the mechanism by which this serum works. It features patented drop-by-drop microburst technology, which is a delivery system that protects the ingredients in a product until the moment they are most beneficial to skin. Thus, potency of these ingredients is preserved.
The Max Contour Gel Crème
As a contouring gel-crème, this product can help improve overall skin appearance by softening the look of wrinkles and making them a lot less noticeable. Key ingredients include:
- Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate – This is a bioavailable form of hyaluronic acid, which is a remarkable ingredient found in a variety of anti-aging products. Hyaluronic acid plumps up the look of skin to make wrinkles less obvious thanks to its ability to retain 1,000 times its weight in water. Bioavailable simply means that it is transferred much more quickly into tissues, where its benefits are immediately felt.[5] Basically, this works more efficiently than regular hyaluronic acid, and has a stronger visual effect of taut and bouncy skin.
- Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2 – This is a peptide that supports collagen- and elastin-deprived skin. Collagen and elastin are two crucial proteins that give skin structure and keep it firm. Thus, this peptide has the ability to plump up the appearance of skin to make wrinkles less visible to the eye.[6]
- Sweet Iris and Orchid Stem Cells – Sweet iris and orchid stem cells can help improve the appearance of aging skin by targeting tone and elasticity.[7] Elasticity is important because it’s what keeps skin bouncy (essentially able to bounce back when stretched). With the help of plant stem cell extracts, skin can appear far firmer and more youthful.
- Babassu Oil – This is a Brazilian oil with skin conditioning effects similar to that of coconut oil. It provides nourishment and hydration to dry, exhausted and aging skin to help restore luminosity and moisture. The drier skin is, the older it tends to look. By restoring moisture in key areas, babassu oil helps skin look younger and more radiant.
*Like the Wrinkle Smoother, the Contour Gel Crème also features microburst technology to protect the integrity of active ingredients until they are absorbed into the skin.
