NON-COMEDOGENIC

Skin care product or cosmetic that is formulated so as not to cause blocked pores. Non-Comedogenic products help keep dry skin supple and oily skin acne-free. That's because non-comedogenic substances don't clog your pores. This allows skin to breathe, remain hydrated, and keeps it free from breakouts. Clogged pores (comedones) can lead to pimples.

Benefits of using non-comedogenic products:

• Doesn’t clog pores
• Allows for adequate cell respiration
• Prevents excessive sweating
• Avoids trapping bacteria within pores
• Maintains hydration
• Minimises breakouts

Comedones are small flesh-colored acne papules. They usually develop on the forehead and chin. You typically see these papules when you're dealing with acne. Blackheads and whiteheads are the most common forms of comedonal acne.

The easiest way to avoid comedogenic beauty products is to look for those that are marked as oil-free or non-comedogenic. If they haven't got that information, then take a look at the ingredients and watch out for the products above.

HYPOALLERGENIC

Here's another common term found on many cosmetic and sensitive skin care products. A 'hypoallergenic' label serves to indicate that certain products have been formulated to be less likely to cause allergic reactions. For example, many hypoallergenic products cannot cause common allergens. When your skin makes contact with an ingredient it doesn't like, small reactions happen under the surface causing redness, dry patches, or acne.

Hypoallergenic products are great for a variety of skin types. If you suffer from a particular skin irritation or skin problem, they might be a perfect solution for you. Dermatitis, rosacea and psoriasis are all skin disorders that can be helped by using a hypoallergenic skin care routine. These conditions are not necessarily caused by allergens, but using products that have heavy, irritating ingredients can worsen the condition. Also, someone who has sensitive skin but no known allergies can usually use hypoallergenic products and not have to worry about irritation.

Benefits of using Hypo-allergenic skin care:

• anti-itch
• effective for those with eczema
• inflammation prevention.
• redness reduction
• prevention of dark spots
• increased moisture
• skin texture consistency

FRAGRANCE-FREE

Fragrance-free products contain no scented additives at all, meaning that the natural way that the product smells when it is produced, is exactly what you get.

Fragrance-free means that fragrance materials or masking scents are not used in the product. Unscented generally means that the product may contain chemicals that neutralise or mask the odors of other ingredients.

The product does not have an aroma. It is considered unscented because it has no obvious scent. It does not, however, mean that the product is free of fragrance chemicals. Fragrance-free products are better for skin's health overall. Fragrance has taken center stage in the skin care conversation lately because of its link to inflammation and its effect on premature skin aging.

Fragrances often cause skin to have an allergic reaction, and for some, that reaction will manifest in redness, irritation and breakouts. But the most common form of damage by fragrance chemicals involves the breakdown of collagen and the skin barrier. Below the surface of your skin, irritating fragrances can cause collagen degradation, which limits the skin’s ability to fight environmental damage and effectively heal itself.

If you’re not sure whether your skin care products are fragranced or not, a of thumb is to always look at the first five ingredients as these make up most of the product. If you see ‘fragrance’ or ‘parfum’ on the label, you know it’s not fragrance-free.” You can also look for common fragrance ingredients such as linalool, citronellol, cinnamal, limonene, geraniol and eugenol.

SKINSPRING R³ FORMULATION IS NON-COMEDOGENIC, HYPOALLERGENIC AND FRAGRANCE-FREE

SkinSpring’s skin repairing, reviveing and restoring formulation’s active ingredient is Hypochlorous Acid (HOCl). Dermatologists are buzzing about HOCl for its potent benefits yet gentle application.

THE SCIENCE OF HOCL ON THE SKIN

When an injury occurs, a cascade of complex responses occur to prevent infection, control bleeding and stimulate cellular repair. There are multiple ways in which damaged, dehydrated or non-functional cells are repaired, many of which are initiated or enhanced by the presence of HOCl. One of the first types of cells recruited to a wound site are white blood cells, which secrete HOCl. As a result of the release of HOCl, an increase in the production of cytokines (healing messenger proteins) and growth factors (stimulate cellular division) occurs. Taurine, an amino acid, is also chemically transformed to Taurine Chloramine which is a powerful wound healing factor.

Inflammation is caused by the activation of pro-inflammatory factors as a response to mechanical damage or infections. The presence of HOCl has various means and processes of anti-inflammatory actions, to neutralise and reduce inflammation. HOCl can neutralise harmful microbial toxins before they can trigger inflammatory responses in infected cells. HOCl also neutralises and inhibits the messenger proteins (such as NF-κB kinase) that are responsible for recruiting pro-inflammatory factors.


HOCl not only directly attacks microbial membrane proteins to deactivate and disrupt a microbial cell’s functionality, but it also increases the osmolarity potential across the cell membrane. The result of disrupted membrane proteins and increased osmolarity potential across the microbial cells causes them to rapidly absorb excessive amounts of acidic water and lyse from bursting. It is a strongly oxidizing and deproteinizing compound that reacts with thiols, proteins, amino acids, DNA, RNA and carbohydrates. Therefore, if a pathogen is not instantly lysed from contact with HOCl, it becomes non-functional and unable to perform basic processes, such as glucose oxidation, DNA replication, RNA synthesis and protein production, eventually causing cell death.


SkinSpring R³ Formulation was designed and manufactured by an experienced team of Molecular Biologists, Biotechnologists and Engineers, who are devoted to providing the Cosmetic & Aesthetic Market with the most advanced HOCl Solution. It is produced in our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility using refined Helderberg Mountain water in combination with the highest quality ingredients.
