This cosmetic contains the revolutionary ingredient Venuceane which is obtained from the fermentation of the bacterium Thermus thermophilus. This
bacteria is found in the Pacific Ocean and grows optimally in extreme conditions (termed an “extremophile”), including extreme temperature, pressure and pH where free radical concentration is tremendous.
Venuceane possesses activity that mimics the anti-free radical (anti-oxidant) protective enzymes found naturally in the skin such as SOD, catalase and glutathione peroxidase. Venuceane provides much stronger protection to the skin than more commonly known vitamin antioxidants such as Vitamin E. In fact, in vivo test showed that Venuceane is capable of protecting against lipid peroxidation and DNA damage from UVA radiation.
Not only was Venuceane shown to help to
preserve the youthfulness of the skin through its anti-free radical (anti-oxidant) action, during testing it was also seen to reverse key signs of ageing such as:
