About other key ingredients in Changes® Protective Body Moisturizer with CoQ10

• Vitamin A (Retinyl Palimate) helps improve skin texture, firmness, and smoothness, and has been shown to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The results of one recent study show its volunteers gave high marks for skin brightness, smoothing and skin comfort when using Retinyl Palmitate.¹

• Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) has been shown to influence production of collagen mechanisms.² Some researchers claim that treatment with topically applied vitamin C inhibit UVA and UVB radiation-induced damage. Research efforts have been ongoing to support the premise that Vitamin C has sun-protecting properties.³

• Vitamin E (Tocopherol) is mainly noted for its moisturization properties. Studies show Vitamin E is well absorbed through the skin, and Vitamin E emulsions have been found to reduce transepidermal water loss, thereby improving the appearance of rough, dry, and damaged skin.⁴

• CoQ10 offers extra protection from free radicals and reinforces the skin's defense system.

• Soy Bean Extract helps replenish lost protein.

Avocado Oil
Known for its rapid absorption into the skin and its natural sunscreen properties, avocado oil is believed to stimulate collagen metabolism, increasing the proportion of soluble collagen in the dermis, which may help retard visible signs of aging and soften the skin. Avocado oil is rich in Vitamins A, B1, B2, D, and E, as well as Panthothenic acid, protein, lecithin and fatty acids.

Borage Seed Oil
This oil contains the highest level of gamma-linoleic acid (GLA), an essential fatty acid. Numerous studies have shown that the topical application of oils containing triglycerides comprised of essential fatty acids will effectively repair severely dry skin. Other studies indicate that borage seed oil can reduce transepidermal water loss for several days after its application.

Jojoba Oil
This oil has been shown to assist in fighting many ailments of the skin, including extra dry skin, blemishes and visible signs of aging. Research has shown the ingredients in jojoba oil can increase the dermal state of elastin, which is responsible for elasticity of the skin. It assists in rejuvenating new cell growth as well as moisturizing, helping to minimize lines and wrinkles and keep the skin supple and soft.
