(Product introduction)

Recently Sephora launched a new anti-aging range from For Beloved One - Polypeptide DNA Resilience Lift.

FOR BELOVED ONE stresses the importance of establishing early “aging prevention” measures before 25 years old. To prevent the first fine line from appearing.FOR BELOVED ONE is launching the first ever cosmetic DNA antiaging skincare product. Combining high-tech genetic anti-aging  technology and peptide elements, the product helps defy any factors that contribute to aging in young women from an early stage.

FOR BELOVED ONE adds DNA repair Renovage ™ and DNA restoring elements Vit-A-Like to the genetic anti-aging products.

These ingredients revitalize the cell DNA, activate DNA reparation, and stimulate the regeneration of skin base, so that skin’s metabolism is restored to its normal state while defying stress from external oxidants, delaying cell aging, reaching the ideal skin condition.

Aside from the concept of genetic antiaging, FOR BELOVED ONE also added polypeptide anti-aging ingredients: Calmosensine™, Chronoline™ and Argireline®, to effectively stimulate the proliferation of collagen, the fibers and layers of sticky protein, bringing vitality and elasticity to skin.

In addition, it can soothe facial tension caused by stresses in life, efficiently blocking the formation of unwanted fine lines caused by over contraction facial muscles, restoring skin to a perfect state of smoothness and plumpness.

The Polypeptide DNA Resilience Lift Lotion - specifically designed for busy young women. By adding the DNA anti-aging concept to your daily skin care routine, with only a few simple steps, you can defy all factors that lead to facial wrinkles.

FOR BELOVED ONE adopts the latest “Polypeptide DNA Anti-Aging Technology” to prevent the essential cause of cell aging, slowing down the damage of skin caused by time, offering the most efficient anti-aging weapon for modern young women.

Moreover, FOR BELOVED ONE adds two types of peptides to revitalize the skin, enhance skin’s elasticity and sooths muscle tension caused by stress, giving young women confidence, elegance, and youth. It takes only 14 days, to see a distinct improvement and obtain skin that radiates with youthful confidence from within.

High-tech genetic repair slows down cell aging from its very core 

• DNA Renovage™

“The phenomenon of telomere-shortening" resulted from DNA cell replication is the main reason behind the aging of human cells.

Renovage™ is a DNA restoration element that can effectively stimulate genes to maintain telomere length and, at the same time, resist oxidation from the outer environment, thus achieving a delay in cell aging, restoring skin to its ideal state. After one month of using the cream, which contains 3% of Renovage™, skin’s firmness, elasticity, and resilience can be significantly improved.

Double peptides revitalize skin’s elasticity restoring youthful skin

• Chronoline™

Chronoline™possesses properties that actively revitalize skin structure, it effectively stimulates growth of collagen proteins, laminin and fibronectin, which not only effectively reduces fine lines and wrinkles, but also restores youthful radiance to skin. Aside from reducing fine lines, it also strengthens skin’s permeability which enables other skin care elements to penetrate the deep layer of  skin. After 28 days of using the cream, which contains 2.5% Chronoline™, 16% of fine lines around the eyes can be effectively reduced.

• Argireline ®

Excessive muscle tension on the face is one of the main factors that contribute to wrinkle formation. Argireline® can slow down the generation of SNARE protein complex, which in turn relieves muscles and effectively prevents the formation of fine lines caused by muscle tension. Clinical results show that within 30 days after the use of Argireline®, wrinkle depth can be reduced by 27%.

Multi-compounds that speed up the restoration of skin rejuvenation and radiance

• Jojoba Oil

The excellent permeability of jojoba oil effectively moisturizes and nourishes skin. Jojoba oil can smooth out pores, regulate oil secretion of oily or mixed skin, relieve inflammation of skin. It can also restore vitality and radiance to dull, dry skin.

• Shea Butter

Extracted from the kernel of an African plant, Karite, Shea Butter can protect skin from damages from the sun and poor weather conditions, accelerate healing of wounds and treat minor irritations. It is suitable for treating dry skin, skin inflammation, and sensitive / allergic skin, preventing dryness, aging, peeling, and itching.

• Plant hormones, Sterocare™

The most noticeable effects from lack of female hormones include the following: dryness, lack of elasticity, loss of collagen, and dullness. The French Biological Research Center discovered that the Non Steroidal isaflavoneo extracted from clover blossom (red clover) possesses the same function as the female hormones but without the harmful side effects. It can re-strengthen the skin tissue and reduce skin sensitivities caused by pressure and the environment.

• Ginseng Extracts

The anti-oxidant function of ginseng extract is 1.4 times more than that of Vitamin C. It is also rich with vitamin A, vitamin E, riboflavin, niacin, calcium, iron, potassium, many essential nutrients needed for healthy skin, as well as other precious micronutrients that provide moisture and nourishment, making skin healthier.

• White Peony tea extracts

The white peony tea extract is harvested only for two days and therefore are very precious. The liquid extracted from white peony is rich in Polyphenol, PCO, Vitamin B Complex, and Vitamin C, which effectively promote skin circulation and giving skin a healthy pink glow. The white peony tea extract is also functions as a powerful antioxidant, preventing skin from damages caused by free radicals, restoring vitality and radiance.

The Polypeptide DNA Resilience Lift Lotion - specifically designed for busy young women. By adding the DNA anti-aging concept to your daily skin care routine, with only a few simple steps, you can defy all factors that lead to facial wrinkles.

The new FOR BELOVED ONE Polypeptide DNA Resilience Lift Eye Cream focuses on the reparation of cell DNA around the eyes, combined with Peptides, it solves all eye contour problems from inside out within one step.

The brand-new patented soy peptide Regu-Age™ and brightening peptide element Haloxyl™ can effectively eliminate dark circles, reduce puffiness and smooth fine lines around the eyes. Combined with DNA Renovage™ and Argireline®, it can hinder the formation of dynamic wrinkles while enhancing skin durability. Ceramide 2 repairs signs of aging by boosting skin’s resilience and elasticity while Phytosoothe™ calms and sooths. In just one step, eye contour problems are improved, bestowing brightness to the eyes.

Eye patented formula that solves eye contour problems in 8 weeks

• Soy peptide Regu-Age™ reduces puffy eyes

Problems with eye contour area arise from a few situations. Slow down of blood circulation, causing capillary volume to increase and become visible; lack of oxygen supply and occurrence of various stimulants, damaging cell tissues; slow down of microcirculation leading to accumulation of excessive body fluid, causing the formation of eye bags. Moreover, the increase in in-vivo proteolytic enzyme secretion/concentration causes damage to skin’s connective tissues resulting in loose skin.

The new soy peptide Regu-Age™ can stimulate partial microcirculation while protecting collagen, elastin and other fundamental supporting tissues; eliminate excessive free radical ions, and effectively reduce dark circles and eye bags.

• Brightening Peptide Factor, Haloxyl™ lightens black circles

The effective ingredient of Haloxyl™ NHS can chelate Iron ion and directly lighten the pigment of dark circles while reducing the generation of Bilirubin. The Chrysin ingredient strengthens the synthesis of Bilirubin enzymes (UGT1A1), enhances enzyme activity, metabolizes Bilirubin pigment deposits and reduces the broken capillaries caused by vasodilatation. Therefore, dark pigmentation is directly lightened, visibly eliminating dark circles.

High-tech genetic repair that delays cell aging from its core

• DNA Renovage™ restores firmnessand resilience

“The phenomenon of telomere-shortening” resulted from DNA cell replication is the main reason  behind the aging of human cells. Renovage™ is a DNA restoration element that can effectively stimulate genes to maintain telomere length and, at the same time, resist oxidation from the outer environment, thus achieving a delay in cell aging, restoring skin to its ideal state. After one month of  using Renovage™ cream, skin’s firmness, elasticity, and resilience is visibly improved. Peptide revitalizes and restores youthful, resilient skin

• Argireline® smoothes out 50% of fine lines around the eyes

Excessive muscle tension on the face is one of the main factors that contribute to wrinkle formation. Argireline® can slow down the generation of SNARE protein complex, which in turn relieves muscles and effectively prevents the formation of fine lines caused by muscle tension. Clinical results show that within 30 days after the use of Argireline®, wrinkle depth can be reduced by 27%.

Perfect healing agent that accelerates skin’s restoration of youthful radiance

• Ceramide2 repairs damaged skin

Ceramide2 is a lipid found between the cells of the Stratum Corneum, the most important ingredient with the highest proportion among Stratum Corneum lipids. It accounts for 40%~60% of intercellular lipids, which forms a thin film on skin, which offers protection and prevents moisture evaporation, keeping skin tender, smooth and resilient. However, the proportion of Ceramide 2 reduces through increase of age and environmental stimulus, causing the skin to lack the ability to retain moisture, leading to oil-water imbalance, weakened protection capability, and dry, rough skin.

Ceramide 2 supplements this loss of vitality, protecting skin from external stimulus and bacterial invasion, restoring skin’s health and youth.

FOR BELOVED ONE Polypeptide DNA Resilience Lift Essence Cream” is used to build a resilient and transparent skin. FOR BELOVED ONE combines two anti-aging stars: the DNA Genetic Anti-Aging Technology and Peptide, both works to resist all aging factors.

The latest Polypeptide DNA Anti-Aging Technology with patent in DNA Restoration, Renovage™ revitalizes cells from its very core, reversing the damages to our skin caused by aging, and retains youthful, beautiful skin.

FOR BELOVED ONE also provides peptide anti-aging treatment, utilizing Chronoline™ and Argireline® to revitalize skin’s elasticity, soothe tightness caused by stress, and restores youthful, flawless skin. Moreover, a “Brightening Radiance Element” of fine quality is added to enhance skin’s luminosity, under natural light, skin instantly reveals translucence and radiance.

• Ceramide 2

Studies show that Ceramide 2 can reconstruct skin’s stratum corneum, promote Keratinocyte regeneration and prevent dehydration from within so that skin maintains its tenderness and smoothness. With increasing of age, however, skin’s Ceramide 2  will gradually be lost; therefore, to preserve skin's smooth condition, it must be replenished externally.

[Product introduction]

Mid November 2012, Skin Inc launched a new age-revival stem cell serum. A serum that helps to protect the longevity of skin cells by maintaining its self-renewal capacity at a DNA level.

From the Tree of Knowledge to the Fountain of Youth, here’s one more compelling reason to bite into the forbidden fruit.

Skincare experts have discovered a rare and endangered Japanese species of apple that helps to protect the longevity of skin cells by maintaining its self-renewal capacity at a DNA level. And Skin Inc has bottled this miraculous ingredient into the revolutionary - Skin Inc Age-Revival Stem Cell Serum.

 
The New Apple Care
Marking a new era in anti-ageing skincare, this product moves beyond dousing skin in active ingredients to literally re-programme skin at a DNA level to fight ageing on its own. That’s right, at the core of Skin Inc Age-Revival Stem Cell Serum is an advanced apple stem cell technology that energises skin to generate new tissues faster, fend off UV damage, and preserve its vitality for longer.

That said, don’t go creating your own DIY apple masks from the grocer’s just yet. The key ingredient in this super age-defence serum is Malus Domestica, a rare and endangered species of apple which dates back to the mid-18th century when the seedling plant was first discovered to possess an incredible ability to remain in pristine condition without shrivelling when stored away for extended periods of time.

To tap into such astounding self-preservation abilities, Skin Inc cultivated this apple through a Plant Cell Culture Technology in the most advanced laboratories of Japan, and encapsulated it to enhance absorption into the deeper layers of skin. The result: a stem cell serum that imbues skin with the self-recovery and self- regeneration prowess of the ‘forbidden fruit’.

Nature Meets Science
Apple stem cells are not the only anti-ageing actives in this power- packed serum. In fact, Skin Inc Age-Revival Stem Cell Serum marries nature’s finest bounty with high-tech anti-ageing ingredients, including:

• ARGAN TREE EXTRACT:

Plumps skin with essential fatty acids and resists oxidation more effectively than olive oil. It is traditionally used to treat skin diseases, and is hard to find outside its region of production as it is sold as a luxury item.

• HERB EXTRACTS:

Brightens skin tone

• SOY ISOFLAVONES:

Regenerate and replenish estrogen, an important female hormone that stimulates metabolism and cell growth for a thicker epidermis, and smoother and more luminous skin.

• COLLAGEN:

Refines skin for finer pores and smoother skin texture.

• HYALURONIC ACID:

Amps up the moisture factor for hydrated and bouncy skin.

• TOMATO AND GRAPE EXTRACTS:

Super-antioxidants that fight degeneration and soothe inflammation.

The roller ball is made of stainless steel
(A tube last for a week of daily usage)

7 Times More Potent
Skin Inc Age-Revival Stem Cell Serum is formulated with one of the highest percentages of active ingredients in any skincare serum – 7 times the percentage found in most popular anti-ageing serums.*

Use it daily as a 4-week intensive anti-ageing programme or as a booster serum to power up your customised Skin Inc My Daily Dose Serum, and banish fine lines, pigmentation, pores and saggy skin.

After cleansing, simply pump this sleek silver serum applicator once and roll over lines, wrinkles and other areas of concern. Massage into skin gently and follow with Skin Inc My Daily Dose Serum for perfectly airbrushed skin.

*based on the market average of popular anti-aging products.

The serum feel moist and abit slimey - absorb nicely into the skin with just a wee bit "sticky" feel on the back of my hand.

Price : SD$338 (A box of 4 serum tubes)
Available at all Skin Inc concept and speciality stores from mid November 2012 onwards.

Received a tube of the serum for consideration.

Earlier this year, Belif opened their first store in Singapore at Wisma Atria.

A brand conceived from the herbal recipes and philosophy of Duncan Napier, a respected botanist and herbalist who opened the first herbal shop and clinic in Edinburgh, Scotland, U.K. in 1860. He discovered the wonders of herbs and was inspired by their superb efficacy in treating the mind and body.

Applying Napiers’ 150 years of traditional herbal extraction and processing methods to its cosmetic products, belif labels our ingredients truthfully just as they are.
 

Belif - A brand I've tried and loved... I have been recommending their moisturizer to people who asked me for a good and not so expensive moisturizer for dehyrated skin.

I just love the fact that Singapore is willing to bring in more and more wonderful (Korean) brands ^_~
Personally, I find that Korean have really good skincare that wasn't too heavy on the pocket)

Gamila Secret a brand that used pure ingredients as in given to us by Mother Nature. Everything used is 100% natural without any artifical additives added. Is a brand set out to heal and give healthy skin.

About Gamila
Gamila was born and raised in a small village called Peki’in Galilee in northern Israel. When her father was very young, his grandmother taught him the importance of nature in their lives. He passed this knowledge onto Gamila.

Based on that knowledge, Gamila started searching for the ideal combination of wild herbs, vegetable oils and olive oil from the trees growing in the hills around her village. This mixture, the ‘secret’ part of Gamila Secret, not only cleansed skin but also softened and healed it. She did not plan for Gamila Secret to become as big as it has become. It just happened. Gamila created the perfect combination for skin care because she has one very clear mission in life: to give everyone the opportunity to have healthy, beautiful skin for as long as they live.

“I have committed my life to blending the healing powers of herbs to create the purest possible skin care products”
 

Raised by nature
All Gamila Secret products contain the same basic ingredients: pure extra-virgin olive oil and a cocktail of no less than 15 fully active hand-picked wild herbs that nourish the skin with minerals and vitamins. All these ingredients come from the area surrounding Peki’in. The combination of these fertile grounds and the mountain-climate provides her with natural ingredients like lavender, lemongrass and olives of the highest quality. The advantage of using the same basic ingredients for all products is that the performance of the active ingredients is strengthened if a combination of different Gamila Secret products is used.
 

Gathered by Gamila
Gamila always works with pure ingredients. She prefers to work with her hands, so she can feel, smell and taste all the ingredients. Thus she can choose and pick the ingredients that are in perfect state of ripening to bring about the optimal effect on your skin. She does not use any artificial additives in her products. Everything is 100% natural and produced by her small team in Peki’in. Gamila Secret products are based on vegetable oils, Shea Butter, grape seed oil, sweet almond oil, avocado oil and lavender oil plus Gamila’s secret herbal mix with 15 hand-picked local herbs.

Nourish  healthy skin
Gamila Secret contains hundreds of active components; together they nourish, clean and nurture your skin Gamila Secret not only cleanses and revitalizes the skin; it also has healing qualities for people whose skin has lost its natural balance. Gamila created the perfect  combination for skin care because she has one very clear mission in life: to give everyone the opportunity to have healthy, beautiful skin for as long as they live. Gamila Secret is 100% natural and totally free of synthetic substances such as preservatives, dyes, emulsifiers, waxes and pore-clogging mineral oils.

“We believe that the combination of true contact with nature, craftsmanship and wisdom can lead to pure products that penetrate more deeply, resulting in healthy, softer skin.”
