Phloretin CF


I love SkinCeuticals antioxidants! They have always been my top pick for antioxidant protection and will continue to be as long as they keep coming up with new formulations like Phloretin CF!

Phloretin, the molecule, is derived from the bark of fruit trees such as apple, grapefruit, and pear. It is a broad-spectrum molecule newly identified for its antioxidant properties and recently studied for use as a pigment-regulating and penetration-enhancing agent in the medical community. Phloretin's unique molecular structure is responsible for potent antioxidant activity in peroxynitrite scavenging and in the inhibition of lipid peroxidation. It also displays a wide range of bioactivity such as anticancer, antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory.

Lifestyle choices as well as daily exposure to anvironmental elements produce damaging reactive oxygen species such as free radicals, oxygen ions, and peroxides in our skin leading to multiple pathways of oxidative stress.

Phloretin CF represents a new class of preventive ad corrective topical antioxidant treatment. After five years of extensive research, SkinCeuticals developed this patent-pending breakthrough technology combining the newly-discovered, broad-range power of phloretin with vitamin C and ferulic acid in a biodiverse formulation to divide and conquer sources of damage at every level. Phloretin CF protects against not only free radicals, but the range of other reactive molecules known to cause damage and DNA mutations among the integral cell types. In addition, it corrects existing damage by stimulating the synthesis of essential proteins and fibers and accelerating cell turnover. The result -- a strengthened support structure on the inside and a more youthful, firm, radiant appearance on the outside.

Peace, Love & Phloretin !

I have personally used SkinCeuticals Vitamin C Serums for almost 10 years and have not found anything that compares! Yes, it is more expensive than some brands, but, it's totally worth it. A bottle of serum should last you 4-5 months (less if you use it on both your face and arms). A less expensive suggestion would be to start using a sunscreen on your arms every day. This will help to prevent any further damage.
