Posh Brats School is in session!!!
Most of you realize by now that I am passionate about my ingredients....seriously mental actually. I know you can't go far these days without hearing about "Q10" being in all these top skincare brands. It's a major buzzword and most people know it's one of those fabulous things but it's doubtful many know what it is or why it's great.
The loss of collagen and elastin causes your skin to wrinkle and sag. The magic formula of collagen/elastin is Q10 and our bodies produce it naturally.
Co-enzyme Q10 also helps the skin by acting as a strong antioxidant. It
helps to neutralize the harmful free radicals that are one of the major
causes of aging. Thus, the age-related decline in Co-enzyme Q10 also
means your skin is more prone to damage by free radicals.
What are free radicals?
Free radicals are a waste product produced by your own body...a bit like a sludge of dead cells and waste that can break down healthy cells and cause illness, allergies, cancer, speed up aging...you name it. Your healthy cells are under attack constantly.
Q10 is naturally produced by your body but it decreases hugely as we age. The best way to get more Q10 back into your body is to supplement, putting a direct concentration into your skincare means it's going straight into your bloodstream and changing your skin at a cellular level.
The best thing about Q10 is that it works and keeps our skin healthy and younger looking. By supplementing our natural levels we can keep our collagen and elastin in perfect shape leading to firmer and more elastic, younger looking skin.
This can also be done as an entire body helper by upping your intake of brightly coloured fruits and veggies!!!
What you see here is a very concentrated solution of Q10 that we use in our skincare. Scary colour huh? This is a 1000ml bottle, for a batch of Oceanus Skin Cream we'd use a 0.5% solution to give the batch optimum results. 25ml of this solution costs us £35.00....that's for ONE ingredient in ONE product.
Think about it......
1000ml / 25ml = 40 x £35.00 = £1400.00 for ONE ingredient in the PB arsenal.
Food for thought eh? Those big name companies charge a fortune for any product containing Q10. Now you know why....it's pretty pricey stuff.
When we released our Oceanus Marine Renewal Cream people balked at the price tag of £30.00 for 50ml so we sent out loads of freebies and gambled on how darn good we knew this cream is.
It is now our BEST selling skin cream and because we started buying the key ingredients for it in larger amounts, our production cost dropped so in turn we dropped the price of the cream by HALF and kept it there.
You're welcome and we love you too xoxox
