When a beautiful person is admired it is not uncommon to hear the statement "it's all in the genes". Looking at the latest research in anti-aging skincare, there is now evidence this is also true when it comes to production formulations.

Skincare specialists are not using embryonic stem cells; it is impossible to incorporate live materials into a skincare product.  Instead, companies are creating products with specialised peptides and enzymes or plant stem cells which, when applied topically on the surface, help protect the human skin stem cells from damage and deterioration or stimulate the skin's own stem cells.

The skin stem cells are found near hair follicles and sweat glands and lie dormant until they "receive" signals from the body to begin the repair mode. In skincare, the use of topical products stimulates the stem cell to split into two types of cells: a new, similar stem cell and a "daughter" cell, which is able to create almost every kind of new cell in a specialised system. This means that the stem cell can receive the message to create proteins, carbohydrates and lipids to help repair fine lines, wrinkles and restore and maintain firmness and elasticity.

The latest is apple stem cells, specifically those from the Swiss Uttwiler Spatlauber apple, which is known for staying fresh longer than other apples. Study results showed that the apple cells can protect the longevity and activity of existing skin cells, and possibly stimulate new skin cells, all of which makes the skin look younger.

Gina's Excited Apple Moisturiser and Excited Apple Serum work by stimulating the adult stem cell reservoirs in our skin to help rejuvenate it. From the day we are born, our skin experiences the incremental and cumulative effects of aging. When we are young, stem cell utilisation for skin rejuvenation functions efficiently. As we age, it reduces significantly. Given the proper environment, these inherent stem cell reservoirs can be stimulated to renew the skin.
