Scientifically Proven Results for Improving Skin

ANOINT features a standardized extract of Schisandra chinensis, which provides a range of customer benefits, including vitalizing and energizing the skin while acting as an adaptogen to help it cope with external stressors like pollution and UV radiation. Notably, it enhances skin elasticity and firmness, resulting in a more youthful appearance. In addition to its ability to support skin regeneration, Schisandra modulates gene expression, working at the cellular level to promote healthier, more resilient skin.

The extract, which is processed in an eco-friendly manner, penetrates deep into the skin, stimulating energy production and metabolism. It also protects the skin from oxidative damage and pollution stress while significantly improving skin elasticity and tone.

In vivo clinical studies have demonstrated substantial improvements in skin firmness and elasticity, as measured by a Cutometer. One unexpected benefit was the elongation of eyelashes, adding an extra dimension to its cosmetic appeal. In vitro and in tubo studies also confirmed Schisandra’s ability to promote ATP synthesis, scavenge free radicals, and enhance the skin’s resistance to pollution. Additionally, it stimulates the synthesis of key proteins such as collagen XVII and ladinin-1, both crucial for maintaining the skin's structural integrity.

Clinical studies were conducted on a panel of volunteers over the age of 60, a group particularly susceptible to declines in skin elasticity and firmness. The results, which became evident after just eight weeks of use, were most noticeable on the temples and face, areas where signs of aging tend to be pronounced.

A high-quality extract from the fruits of Schisandra Chinensis stimulates the two important molecules in the DEJ tension regulators, collagen XVII and ladinin-1 proteins, and reinforces the cohesion between the dermis and epidermis. Used daily over 8 weeks, this extract improves firmness (+25%), resilience (+8%) and elasticity (+28%)*.

Schisandra targets key molecules in the skin, particularly those involved in the dermal extracellular matrix (ECM), the dermis, and the dermo-epidermal junction (DEJ). These areas are essential for maintaining skin integrity and elasticity. The extract itself is 100% natural, vegan, and compliant with international cosmetic standards, such as the International Nomenclature Cosmetic Ingredient (INCI). It is approved by Cosmos, certified as clean beauty with a short ingredient list, and contains no preservatives.

Sourced from Asia and India, where it is considered both a superfood and an edible fruit, Schisandra is not only powerful for topical use but has a deep-rooted history of benefiting overall health. The extract is oil-soluble, making it an ideal ingredient for various skincare formulations.

Schisandra’s unique properties, coupled with sustainable extraction processes, make it a valuable asset in skincare. It offers impressive clinical results, particularly for those seeking enhanced elasticity, firming, and cellular repair in aging skin.
