Phytofloral photo-protection and skin lightening

Built into the skin with Phytoene & Phytofluene, a patented NutriCosmetics Innovation

Revolution in photo-protection, skin lightening and evening of skin tone

TWO CLINICAL STUDIES WITH PhytoflORAL REVEAL:

1. Photoprotection: PhytoflORAL presented a significant photoprotective effect highlighted by a significant increase of the Minimum Erythemal Dose (MED) after UV exposure. An average increase of 20% among 65% of the study participants was observed with daily intake of PhytoflORAL.

2. Lightening effect: the study results indicate a significant skin lightening effect, with increases in L* value and ITA among up to 82% of panelists.

Clinical scoring by the dermatologist in both studies showed that skin quality was significantly improved showing:

• decrease of skin dryness
• decrease of skin roughness
• increase of skin suppleness
• skin complexion is more uniform
• improvement of skin texture

The subjects in the studies found an improvement especially in their skin radiance, evenness, hydration, smoothness, suppleness, elasticity and reduced irritability. They found their skin more resistant to sun damage, more beautiful and visually healthier.

PhytoflORAL: Revolution in Photo-Protection

PhytoflORAL, a natural dietary supplement for beauty from within comprising phytoene and phytofluene, the colorless carotenoids. The new clinical data shows that, PhytoflORAL has an outstanding photo-protection capacity that is built into the skin from within. PhytoflORAL can significantly increase MED (Minimal Erythemal Dose) after 84 days of consequent dietary consumption, meaning that the skin's ability to resist sun damage is increased. PhytoflORAL contains phytoene and phytofluene, colorless carotenoids is also able to lighten and even the skin tone by inhibition of melanin synthesis, UVA and UVB protection, anti inflammatory and anti oxidant capabilities.

The data so far provide evidence that dietary intake of phytoene and phytofluene such as in the form of PhytoflORAL will result in accumulation of the phytoene and phytofluene in the skin delivering thereby their skin benefiting activities:

• Protection against oxidative and photo damage
• Skin lightening and even skin complexion
• Anti ageing overall

PhytoflORAL provides a natural and unique product to maintain beautiful, healthy, radiant and younger looking skin from within

* Sun protection - anti ageing and photo ageing
* Skin whitening/lightening & evening of skin tone
* Protection and boost of biomolecules

Brief
Phytoene and phytofluene, the first carotenoid precursors in the biosynthetic pathway of other carotenoids, have un-visible color, absorbing light in the UV range only. The COLOURLESS CAROTENOIDS have effective and beneficial activities for beauty applications, specifically in protection against UVA/UVB  and oxidative damage, which are known to lead to premature aging and other phenomena.
Able to control pigmentation by inhibition of melanin synthesis, COLOURLESS CAROTENOIDS lighten the skin. They also present abilities to reduce inflammation, inhibit collagenase expression and thereby collagen degradation and protect DNA from oxidative damage. Altogether adding benefits to better looking and healthier skin.
Additionally, COLOURLESS CAROTENOIDS are capable of stabilization, protection and boosting of bio-molecules.

Bioavailability and tissue distribution of phytoene and phytofluene
Many dietary carotenoids, both with and without pro-vitamin A activity, are found in most human tissues, including in the serum, plasma, and skin. Yet distribution of carotenoids throughout the body is not uniform; when compared to other carotenoids, the COLOURLESS CAROTENOIDS phytoene and phytofluene, have the highest accumulation factor in the skin, lungs, plasma, and lymphocytes. It further supports their advantage in term of ability to prevent and protect against oxidation damage in vivo, and in fact, increased protection of DNA and skin cells against oxidative and UV damage was observed with consumption of phytoene and phytofluene.
