FACE SERUMS: WHAT? WHY? HOW?

Posted by Gerovital Romania Tuesday, October 1, 2013 0 comments

Premature ageing, dehydration, dullness, redness, lack of firmness, fine lines & wrinkles, discoloration & spots, uneven skin tone, acne, they are all facts of life, but these powerful skincare products called “serums” can combat the enemies of your skin and halt the ageing process to keep your complexion looking younger for longer.

What is a serum?
Face serums are a fairly new addition to our skin care routines. They are thick liquid-like products with active ingredients like vitamins and anti-oxidants that are formulated with smaller molecules so they can penetrate deep into the skin.

A facial serum or a facial moisturizer?
Because of their concentrated ingredients, serums tend to be pricier that a moisturizer, so it is natural to ask: a serum, a moisturizer, or both? What is the best option for us?

People are often confused about the differences between a moisturizer and a facial serum, and may be unsure if they should use one or both products. While facial serums can give you added moisture, the main reason you’d want to use a facial serum is to get added nutrients into deeper layers of your skin that a regular moisturizer is not able to reach.

The beauty of serums is that they are more concentrated and they are designed for penetration to the skin which is that makes them powerful corrective products. They tend to have a thinner consistency than a moisturizer and that is because serums are all about action and correction.

Due to their large molecules, moisturizers can only penetrate the first layer of the skin, allowing them to hydrate and seal in moisture. A facial serum is able to penetrate into all three layers of the skin because it is made of smaller molecules. The serums ability to go deeper into the skin is what allows it to help combat many common beauty complaints.

Of course skin care companies would like to make you believe that you need both, but that is not always true. If you have a problem with your skin that you'd like to improve, such as dark spots or early aging signs, a serum can help. Also, if your skin is very oily, a serum can give you enough hydration. But, if your skin is happy with your regular moisturizer alone, there is no need to rush off to buy a serum.


How to choose the right serum?
Serum can treat a wide area of concerns whether is acne, photo-damage, premature aging, there is a serum up there that is right for you.

When choosing a facial serum, keep in mind your skin type, whether it is oily, dry, combination or sensitive. Then, determine what issues you are trying to prevent or correct, and find products that contain ingredients to combat these issues, such as antioxidants to prevent aging, retinol (commonly referred to as vitamin A) to reverse aging, or hyaluronic acid to keep your skin nourished.

Some skin serum ingredients are useful in fading dark spots on the face, while others give a healthy glow to dull, grayish complexions.

Using a serum that’s just right for you will go a long way toward improving the appearance of your skin.

For dry skin: Layering a serum under your moisturizer can help boost your skin. Look for serums that contain hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, or you could also opt for a face essential oil for added nourishment and vitamins.

For fine lines and wrinkles: Look for serums that contain ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamins that help cell regeneration and removes the formed “free radicals”, ceramides, essential oils or collagen.

For Oily Skin: Using a serum is an excellent choice for oily skin types, because the lighter consistency won't leave you feeling greasy. Look for products formulated with glycolic acid or retinol to help smooth your skin's texture, accelerate cellular turnover, and prevent clogged pores. Vitamin C is also an excellent ingredient; it provides antioxidant protection while also reducing redness and inflammation often associated with acne-prone skin.

For Combination Skin: Look for a serum that targets your specific skin concerns. There are plenty of formulas on the market that help reduce dark spots and scarring, add antioxidant protection, smooth skin, reduce redness, and more. Serums are your secret weapon to targeting your skin imperfections.

For Acne or Prone to Blemishing Complexions: Look for an ingredient like salicylic acid, that will penetrate deep into your pores and help clean up those blemishes that are forming


How to properly apply a serum?

Keep in mind the right order: toner, serum moisturizer

First start with your toner.

Then apply the serum. Pour about 4 drops into your fingers and press it into the skin, making sure that is absorbed.

Use a serum once a day, in the morning, after you cleansed your skin. It’s important to remember that serum is so active, that you need to apply your serum to clean, dry skin (but if your skin is very dry, you can apply the serum right away, when skin is still damp to seal in as much moisture as possible).

Wait a few minutes until the serum is fully absorbed, and then apply your moisturizer. That will allow you to lock and increase the benefits of the serum.

Tips and Tricks:

  • You can use more than one serum to give your complexion a well-rounded approach to skin care and protection.
  • Apply anti-wrinkle serum twice a day to receive the full benefits of its nutrients.
  • Pair your serum with a sunscreen for best daily protection

DISCOVER GEROVITAL HISTORY: GEROVITAL H3 LINE

Posted by Gerovital Romania Sunday, February 17, 2013 0 comments

Professor Doctor Ana Aslan has developed the Gerovital H3 (considered by many to be the pioneer of anti-aging medicine) and firstly introduced it in 1957, at the 4th International Gerontology Congress in Verona, Italy. Scientists and researchers from the US, UK, Germany, Italy, Austria, Japan and Romania have subsequently studied and analyzed Ana Aslan’s treatment and confirmed its anti-aging properties. In the 60s the Gerovital H3 treatment has been acknowledged as scientific, medical and cosmetic breakthrough, a highly valued anti-aging treatment. Ana Aslan later developed the Anti Aging cosmetics line.


In 1966, Prof. Dr. Ana Aslan registered a patent for Gerovital H3, as part of a comprehensive geriatric program. The program aimed health, beauty, vitality and mind and was a combination of rules of life and physiological treatments to compensate for shortcomings that come with aging.

Gerovital H3 Prof Dr Ana Aslan Cosmetic Line is part of this program designed to tackle skin problems that come in womens’ 40s. The basic principle is to supply skin with those components and boost those processes which help mature skin look and feel younger.
The duet Emollient Moisturizing Day Cream and Nourishing Night Face Cream has been launched in 1967 by the Farmec Cluj Napoca cosmetic factory.
                                                                         

According to Mrs Mariana Schenker, senior researcher at Farmec, “Gerovital H3 is a breakthrough in anti-wrinkle creams”. “Forty years after the patent, the concept is still original. But we can not ignore the fact that in these 40 years the understanding of the mature skin has reached new dimensions. New and effective ingredients have been discovered. Therefore, as the custodian of the Gerovital brand, it is our duty not to let Gerovital H3 prisoner of the time it was invented.”

The first adjustment to the Gerovital H3 formula was a consequence of international regulations. The main "anti-aging" ingredient, procaine, was banned internationally (please read our blog for more info) in 1996. Under these circumstances, the formula had to be redesigned in Farmec laboratories, introducing the only derivative of procaine (PABA) internationally accepted along with other active ingredients so that performance of the Gerovital H3 line had not been compromised, but enhanced.
 
The Gerovital H3 Eye Cream was another important milestone. The sensitive area around the eyes first shows the signs of aging. And it needs to be addressed with specific anti-wrinkle products.
The eye cream is actually the first anti-wrinkle product used by most women. The Gerovital H3 Anti-Wrinkle EyeContour Cream had been design around the classical Gerovital H3 concept.
New products had been added to the line as a natural process: daily cleanser, toner, face mask and exfoliating cream.

The most notable change for the GerovitalH3 Line was the release, in 2006, of a new face care duet, moving forward the classical one invented by Mrs Aslan. Prof. Aslan left a cream addressing age 40+, when aging problems are already visible. It was so perfect for mature skin (40+) that was „unacceptable” for the 30 years old complexions. But starting 30’s we should begin prevention.

The new, up to date, duet is the Gerovital H3 Lift (Intensive Moisturizing Day Lift Cream and Replenishing Night Lift Cream). It is addressed to both mature skin and delaying signs of aging. A new effective ingredient with a lifting effect has been added to the Gerovital H3 formula.
Clinical tests show that after 28 days of using Gerovital H3 Lift products:
•          Wrinkles smooth up to 84.2%.
•          Skin suppleness is enhanced up to 94.7%.
•          Hydration is increased up to 53.8%.
•          Lifting effect is increased up to 43.37%.
•          Firmness increases up to 42.37%.
•          Significant rejuvenating results appear


Active ingredients and natural plant extracts have now been added to the Gerovital H3 original formula for immediate and long lasting effects:
Sodium Hyaluronate - Improves skin moisturizing and suppleness.
Elastin - Helps keep the skin flexible and tight.
Collagen - Improves skin moisturizing and suppleness.
Sepilift – Regenerates elastic fibers of the epidermis.
Lecithin - Reduces flaking and helps restoring suppleness.
Avocado Oil – Rejuvenates, heals, nourishes.
Calendula Oil - Has a strong healing and anti-inflammatory effect on skin. It activates blood circulation and contributes to tissue regeneration.
Cocoa Butter - Is an excellent emollient and a valuable moisturizing agent.
Cucumber Extract - Helps and prevents the appearance of wrinkles.
Vitamin A - Accelerates cell renewal, stimulates collagen production, helps reducing wrinkles and fine lines.
Vitamin E - A very effective antioxidant, helps cell regeneration and removes the formed “free radicals”.
Fatty Acids (Vitamin F) - Nourish and help lubricate skin cells.

HOW CUTANEOUS AGEING WORKS?

Posted by Gerovital Romania Friday, March 12, 2010 0 comments


Cutaneous ageing it`s a slowly process , that
starts it` s clinical change perfidious after the
age of 35.

The mainly cause of cutaneous ageing process
is the accumulation of superoxyds (free acids) :
superoyds ions, the hydroxide anion, peroxide of hy-
drogen and the singhalet oxygen.

The free radicals can appear after the cells oxidoreduc-
tion process during the human body normal methabo-
lism, but also they can appear after exhibiting to envi-
ronment pollution, noxas, smoking,
uV radiations, alchool and drugs consmption, after
swells.

The cutaneous ageing is the consequence of two pro-
cesses : the extrinsic ageing ( photo ageing) and the
intrinsic ageing ( the chronological one).
the chronological one has a genetic propensity .
the ageing skin is clinical characterised by losingit`s
normal texture, tonus, resilence and firmness.
the skin becomes thin, translucid and that makes possi-
ble seeing the undernith dilated vessels, that lost their
resilience: teleangiectasia.

It becomes dryed, serous because of the substraction
of sebaceous and sudoriparous secretion with an im-
portant role for maintaining the protective, hidrolipidic
lubricant cutaneous film that ensures skin`s flexibility
and a ph of 4, - , .

It has a pigmentation which is not homogenous -
through the appearance of the lentigo, actinic Kera-
tosis and seborrhoeic Kerastosis especially when one
expose to the sun radiations.

After that we can see the wrinkles: expression wrinkles
and then the deep ones. after losing the hypodermic
grease the cheeks and the eyes widen, the eyelids fall,
it appears the goitre, the superiour lip becomes thin,
the skin looks flabby, depened, and we can see grossly
and vertical wrinkles arond the lips .
the clinical manifestations are the consequence of the
next pathological changes:
● at the epidermic level the capacity of cells renovation
goes down, the epiderm is thin.
● the dermic level is characterised by the decrease of
the collagen and elastic fibras which is caused by fibro-
blasts and growth of colagenosis and methaloprotei-
nasis activity, and also growth of glycosided collagen
the cause for cells death, the derm is atrophied.
● the pigmentattion changes are the consequence of
the lipofuscines accumulation in fibroblasts and the
oresence of melanic cells at the demo-epidermial junc-
tion.

The causative for the superficial wrinkles is the elastic
fibras deterioration.
the expression wrinkles are the consequence of facial
repeated movement with the secondary and frequency
contractions of facial muscles, and from the morfo-
pathological point of view it`s the densification ofder-
moepidermical junction.

The deep wrinkles are caused by the deterioration of
the elastic fibras.
The gravitational wrinkles appear after losing the resi-
lence of the skin and of the cellular hypodermic tissue
the adipose tissue is slided, and the derm is relaxed.
