Nighty Night Cream from English Rose Cosmetics

This is my 6th English Rose product and I’d like to share with you how I’ve developed this product.  Available from www.english-rose-cosmetics.com  

Key Ingredients
Biden Pilosa also known as Hairy Beggarticks & Spanish Needles and has similar properties to Retinol (Vitamin A) without causing inflammation.

Bio-oils;- Cotton, Evening Primrose, Linseed, Palm, Rosehip, Shea and Wheatgerm work together to bring dry mature skin back to radiance. 
Sodium hyaluronate - a water binding molecule present in our skin too intensely moisturise.

Studies conducted on Revinage from Chemyunion, Brazil 

Chemyunion grow an organic sustainable harvest of Biden Pilosa and using super critical extraction turn it into Revinage. 

At 3% concentration Revinage (Biden Pilosa)

  1. Increase collagen I by 24%
  2. Increases functional elastin by 42%
  3. Increases Sirtuin-6 gene expression by 2.4 fold
  4. Lightens age spots by reducing melanin and tryrosinase production
  5. Controls oiliness by inhibiting Dihydroxytestosterone.  
Further data can be provided on request.  Revinage has not been animal tested. 

Texture
This formulation contains a silicone elastomer which gives it bounce.  Its feels slightly rich and is absorbed quickly with long staying moisturisation.

Benefits

The key ingredient used – Revinage - has been clinically proven to be effective against early wrinkles and smoothing out deeper wrinkles, improving skin radiance and texture and restoring firmness in mature skin.  The bio-oils will strengthen the lipid barrier in the epidermis.

Value for Money

Contains mainly naturally effective ingredients and retails on line for £18.00 for 50ml.

We do not use Petrol in any of my products i.e. Petrolatum or Paraffinum Liquidum – there are so many more effective vegetable products which are more expensive, but our skin deserves it.  I source naturally active ingredients that are non-animal tested and the majority are Ecocert approved.
