Ingredient du jour: Apple stem cells
Ingredient du jour: Apple stem cells
We all know the saying about an apple a day, but perhaps we need to rewrite this age-old adage since the rise of apple stem cells as a skincare ingredient may help keep the dermatologist (or better yet, the plastic surgeon) away. Found in a bevy of new skincare products, apple stem cells have been found to stimulate our skin’s own production of human skin stem cells, protect our existing skin stem cells, and in turn, improve the appearance of wrinkles. Vogue reported that Michelle Obama is a fan, and we all know how fabulous she looks! Here are a few of the latest products that contain apple stem cells, in case you want to take a bite…
Dr. Brandt Pores No More Anti-Aging Mattifying Lotion
Are you concerned about signs of aging and oily skin? With the latest addition to Dr. Brandt’s Pores No More collection, it’s no problem. In addition to apple stem cells, you also get a gentle retinol for even more anti-aging benefits, hydration that doesn’t exacerbate shine, and micronized powder that keeps your skin matte the whole day through.
Sonya Dakar NutriSphere collection
L.A. facialist-to-the-stars Sonya Dakar is always on the cutting-edge of skincare, and her Apple Stem Cell facial is all the rage in Tinseltown. After seeing the demand for the treatment in her studio, Dakar created an entire line around the apple stem cells, and now you can experience the benefits at home with the NutriSphere line.
Goldfaden Stem Cell Skin Serum
The protective power of antioxidants and the supreme hydration of hyaluronic acid are combined with apple stem cells in this super serum. Twice daily use yields smoother, softer, plumper skin—no doctor’s appointment required.
Fortified with the power of apple stem cells but with a drugstore price, Eclos Beauty brings this anti-aging ingredient to the masses. All six of the line’s products contain apple stem cells, plus a proprietary complex of other plant extracts, vitamins and antioxidants to improve and protect your skin.
