3 Skinstitut philosophy Serious, high-end skincare should be accessible to everyone. For this reason, we offer Australia s most effective cosmedical range using top-quality, potent and cutting edge ingredients from all over the world. Cosmedical grade, chirally correct skincare Visible results, not ridiculous claims No animal testing or animal derived ingredients Australian made, Australian owned Australia s leading cosmedical brand We are not about hype, expensive packaging or luxury, but rather scientific formulations based on clinically priven ingredients and notiveable skin results. Our Products are priced around 50% less than comparative brands. RRP for all products is $45 Cosmedical skin care Cosmedicals are the newest and arguably the most effective category of skin care products that can be purchased without a prescription. Often described as an advanced cosmeceutical, Cosmedicals have the ability to assist with dramatically improving the appearance of the skin. Based on a clinically proven blends of AHA s, Retinoids, Vitamin C, Peptides, Antioxidants and SPF technology, Cosmedicals are not only reliant on potent active ingredients but utilise penetration enhancing formulations and encapsulation technology to deliver benefits as deep as possible into the skin. Cosmedicals are often described as the last step before a doctor s prescription and should always be prescribed by a skin professional in a medispa, skin clinic or medical practice environment. Skinstitut Cosmedicals contain proven technology that is clinically tested, with active ingredients to ensure the best possible skin care results. Many skincare companies claim to contain active ingredients in their products such as antioxidants and retinol however on closer investigation these ingredients are either in a percentage so small that they Skinstitut Product Training Manual Page 3 of 94

4 do not have any therapeutic benefit or formulated in such a way that the ingredients are unstable and lack efficacy. This of course leads to a disappointed consumer ready to be preyed on by the next marketing fad. Skinstitut believes good skincare should be simple, affordable and effective. To pay hundreds of dollars for a skincare cream is ludicrous yet consumers are still lured into believing that they are getting value for money. The basis of great skin is simple, good nutrition, regular gentle exfoliation, correction with actives such as retinol and UV protection with a minimum SPF Exfoliate 2. Correct 3. Protect Ingredients Alpha Hydroxy Acids or AHAs is the family name for a group of naturally occurring acids found both in plant matter and the human body. The primary use of AHAs is as both exfoliators and as hydrators. They are generally used to treat the symptoms of such skin conditions including, photo-damaged, pigmented, aged, dry and breakout prone. Glycolic and Lactic Acid are amongst the most effective hydroxy acids, not only because they have the smallest molecular structure of the AHA family, but because of their superior ability to hydrate and normalize the skin. Mandelic Acid (traditionally extracted from almonds) is often used in combination with Glycolic Acid. Possessing a larger molecular structure than Glycolic Acid, Mandelic Acid is renowned not only for its exfoliating and hydrating properties, but also for intense antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties unlike its AHA relatives. There are 3 primary skin benefits attributed to hydroxy acids. 1. Exfoliation 2. Hydration 3. Normalisation Common misconception claims that regular use of AHAs can in fact thin the skin. Considering the increases of hydration, collagen and elastin that both Glycolic and Lactic Acids create, such beliefs are far from the truth. AHA s in fact can thicken and plump out an aged, dehydrated, environmentally aggressed skin. Care must be taken not to over use hydroxy acids. Aggressive exfoliation could possibly cause an impaired barrier function leading to skin irritation and superficial dehydration via trans epidermal moisture loss (T.E.M.L).

5 Vitamin B3 Vitamin B3 is a water soluble vitamin also known as niacin. The name niacin specifically refers to nicotinic acid but it also is used to collectively describe two chemical structures nicotinic acid and nicotinamide (niacinamide). Niacinamide has been found to be extremely beneficial in treating a variety of common skin conditions such as hyper pigmentation, ageing and acne when applied topically to the skin. NADH and NADPH are 2 important enzymes that contribute to the production of cellular energy and lipids (responsible for cell growth). With a sufficient supply of both enzymes, the skin creates an effective barrier to external factors that influence the ageing process. However, the levels of both NADH and NADPH decline as we grow older, resulting in an impaired barrier function of the skin. This can lead to increased sensitivity, T.E.M.L, and premature ageing. When applied topically, vitamin B3 assists with the reduction of their rate of decline and therefore assists with strengthening the natural barrier function of the skin. Because topical application of niacinamide can help preserve levels of NADH and NADPH, it contributes to the support of the skin s barrier against pollutants and other irritants. As a result, many skin conditions, such as acne, redness associated with rosacea, and other inflammatory signs can be actively managed. Also, vitamin B3 has shown to be useful for encouraging the production of natural emollients that can help the skin remain hydrated. Vitamin B3 may assist with treating and improving the following skin conditions: Rosacea Acne Eczema, dermatitis Sun damaged Ageing Dry skin Hyper pigmentation Vitamin A Often referred to as the anti-aging vitamin, Vitamin A has been claimed to visibly reverse the aging process. Not only guaranteeing a gentler delivery system to the skin, topically applied Retinoids have the ability to be converted by the body back into Retinoic Acid, a form of Vitamin A with the ability to alter collagen synthesis, stimulate the growth of fibroblasts and the extra-cellular matrix. Vitamin A is essential for the generation and function of healthy cells ensuring the prevention of dryness, scaliness and infection. Skinstitut Product Training Manual Page 5 of 94

6 Vitamin A in the form of Retinol is used to treat a variety of conditions including aging, acne, rosacea and damaged skins. As a metabolic regulator, Vitamin A normalizes the cellular chemical process that produces energy and growth, thus targeting mutations within the skin and attempting to correct the imbalance. Vitamin C L-Ascorbic Acid, commonly referred to as Vitamin C, is recognised for its ability to protect against oxidative damage. It s known to have photo protective effects on the skin and has shown to decrease UVB induced erythema i.e. sunburns. It is essential for the synthesis of collagen which in turn significantly improves skin texture, fine lines, wrinkles, skin laxity and decrease sallowness. It is known to have anti-inflammatory properties, thus can been used to treat a variety of inflammatory conditions. It significantly improves skin clarity via its mild tyrosinase activity, thus is used in the treatment and maintenance of several pigmentation disorders such as Melasma, PIHP and general prevention of unwanted discoloration. It s important to fully understand the importance of Vitamin C to be able to properly evaluate products and product stability. Though often unstable in its many forms and derivatives, it is evident that Vitamin C has a synergistic effect with Vitamin E, working hand in hand by protecting and repairing free-radical attacked Vitamin E antioxidants, enabling more efficient scavenging. Vitamin C however used singularly in a formulation often has its abilities questioned because of its reaction and de-generation with water. Ascorbic or L-Ascorbic Acid can fast turn into a pro-oxidant or free radical within 3-4 hours when mixed in a water based serum or solution causing the formulation to eventually turn brown. Instability of Vitamin C limits the forms in which it can be used to achieve effective results, thus Skinstitut s Chirally correct L-Ascorbic Acid, is in pure powder form and does not suffer from the above mentioned limitations, providing the most effective and stable form available on the market. Antioxidants Produced in normal amounts, free-radicals are chemical compounds made by the body during the metabolism of food, air exposure or sunlight to not only rid the body of harmful toxins but maintain the immune system, metabolism and collagen production. However when over-produced, these unpaired oxygen electrons create destruction, killing healthy cells and damaging DNA and surrounding tissue. The atoms try to correct this imbalance by either giving an electron to another molecule, or by taking one from another molecule, thus creating a never ending game of cellular musical chairs. Skinstitut Product Training Manual Page 6 of 94

7 Compare this process to a cut apple left sitting on a bench the apple goes brown, or even the rust that slowly destroys a shiny piece of iron. Skins affected by excessive free-radical damage display wrinkles, pigmentation, decreased elasticity and firmness. Not only are there internal alterations to the cellular membrane affecting collagen production, but the immune fighting ability of the Langerhans cells are greatly diminished creating a tired, reactive and unbalanced complexion. It has been claimed that some of the highest creators of free-radicals in the human body are sun damage and smoking. Stress, pollution and drugs singularly or in combination are equally destructive, with barbequed, fried or grilled food playing a surprisingly damaging role. Whilst many consumers are involved with one or many of these aggressing factors, it is important to not only educate about the damage being caused, but provide both topically applied and internally taken antioxidant combination solutions to counterbalance the free-radical effects. Whilst the damage cannot be avoided, it can be minimized. Whilst there are many antioxidants on the market available, as with many ingredients, it is their stabilisation within a formula that is the crucial criteria for their success. Plant extracts including Pistachio Nut Oil, Kakadu Plum, Canadian Willowherb, Edelweiss and Goji Berry are all powerful antioxidants. Co Enzyme Q10 Co Enzyme Q10 your energy powerhouse Ubiquinone (commonly known as Coenzyme Q-10) is one of the superhero skincare ingredients that is essential for healthy radiant skin. Coenzyme Q-10 (CoQ-10) is a naturally occurring vitamin-like substance found in all cells throughout the human body. The name Ubiquinone comes from the Latin word ubique meaning everywhere. Coenzyme Q 10 is found in highest amounts in the heart, liver, kidney, and pancreas. Coenzyme Q-10 can also be synthesised in a laboratory by fermenting beets and sugar cane with special strains of yeast. The main functions for Co enzyme Q-10 are - Energy production. CoQ-10 is part of the electron transport chain within the cells and participates in aerobic cellular respiration (energy production). This means coenzyme Q-10 has a role in producing ATP, a molecule in body cells that functions like a rechargeable battery in the transfer of energy. As we age the production and utilisation of this Co Q-10 declines and therefore cell health and energy can decline. Antioxidant protection. As an antioxidant, it scavenges free radicals, thus protecting proteins such as DNA, collagen and elastin, LDL ( bad ) cholesterol, and mitochondrial DNA from oxidative damage. It is particularly active in the membranes of the cells and cell organelles due to the fact that it is lipophilic. Skin is vulnerable to free radicals because of its exposure to ultraviolet light, air pollution and other harmful environmental factors. Skin with low levels of coenzyme Q10 may be more susceptible to free radical damage. Skinstitut Product Training Manual Page 7 of 94

8 Coenzyme Q-10 supplementation is often used for treating cardiovascular and blood vessel conditions. It is also used for diabetes (to protect against heart disease and circulatory issues), cancers, Parkinson s disease, muscular dystrophy, increasing exercise tolerance and chronic fatigue syndrome to name just a few. Salmon, tuna and whole grains also contain Q10, but as we cannot absorb large amounts of from our diet alone, we need to look at both internal nutritional support, and topical solutions to support our cell protection and skin s integrity. Co Enzyme Q-10 has a very small molecular structure, able to penetrate the skin easily, which makes it an extremely effective ingredient for cosmedical skin care. Co Enzyme Q- 10 is a must have ingredient for anyone wanting to slow down premature ageing and wanting healthy, radiant and hydrated skin. Tyrosinase inhibitors Skin de-pigmenting agents or skin lightening agents, clinically known as Tyrosinase Inhibitors (TI s), are commonly used to treat disorders of pigmentation such as freckles and sun spots. Multiple stimuli can influence pigmentation resulting in altered properties of the melanosomes themselves or modification of their distribution to surrounding keratinocytes, all of which are undesirable changes affecting skin colour and evenness. UV radiation, hormones, medication, poor nutrition and genetic predisposition are all contributing factors in the stimulation and development of pigment related disorders. Sunscreen, in combination with Tyrosinase Inhibitors offer protection, correction and maintenance of all such conditions. Tyrosinase Inhibitors such as Daisy flower extract and Wakamine interfere with the enzymes involved in the production of Melanin synthesis, blocking the enzyme pathway thus disabling the skins ability to produce unwanted pigment. Tyrosinase inhibitors assist with inhibiting the conversion of tyrosine into melanin thus preventing unwanted pigment production. Skinstitut Product Training Manual Page 8 of 94

9 SYN -AKE There are generally two types of wrinkles that become apparent on the skin those caused by a combination of dehydration and sun / free radical damage and those created from the day to day movements and expressions of the face, via repeated movements of the muscles. These later lines are known as mimic wrinkles. SYN -AKE has been developed as efficient smoothing and anti-wrinkle care particularly effective against expression lines by relaxing facial muscles. This active tri-peptide acts in a manner similar to Waglerin 1, a neuromuscular blocking compound of the venom of the Temple Viper. Acting at the post-synaptic membrane, SYN -AKE is a reversible antagonist of the muscular nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (mnachr). We assume that the tri-peptide is binding to the epsilon subunit of the mnachr which prevents binding of acetylcholine to the receptor; consequently it remains closed. In the closed state, there is no uptake of sodium ions (Na+) and the muscles stay relaxed. Sunscreen It is well known how damaging UV radiation is on the skin. Acute and repeated sun exposure create both short and long term effects on the skin, ranging from sunburn, premature skin aging (break down of collagen, destruction of blood vessels, age spots, lines and wrinkles) to development of skin cancers. There have been many studies of the effects of radiation on the epidermis and dermis, it has been proven that small regular doses equate to chronic sun damage and is the culprit behind skin aging. Multiple short and unprotected exposures to the sun may actually become more damaging over the course of a lifetime than a smaller number of lengthy exposures resulting in sunburn. It is estimated that 90% of sun damage is the result of unplanned or casual sun exposures when people may not have active photo protection. This might include riding in a car, walking outdoors briefly or stopping to talk with friends, without a sunscreen. With better public education and sunscreens this form of damage is on the decrease. Therefore it is imperative to educate your clients on the importance of daily application of sunscreen to ensure the best possible outcome to minimise potential complications involved in dermal therapy modalities but also in prevention and maintenance of UV radiation related skin conditions. Short wave lengths of light (UVB) tend to do most of its damage in the epidermis (the outer layers of the skin), while the longer wave lengths of light (UVA) produce damage in the dermis (the inner layers containing collagen and structural elements of the skin). When the energy of these small particles of light strike a component of skin (where the light wave stops), the energy released alters the chemistry of that component and damages the component. This is the initial damage. These chemical changes also produce free radicals and these radicals continue on to cause additional damage (secondary damage) to other skin components. Unprotected sun exposure produces double levels of damage; the initial energy damage and the secondary free radical damage. Skinstitut Product Training Manual Page 9 of 94
