Inside the ingredients

A leader in anti-aging skin care, Janson Beckett specializes in advanced peptide-based treatments. Using the latest science, Janson Beckett offers a comprehensive line of products that safely repairs and improves the skin while protecting it from future damage.

When you’re on the prowl for effective products, it helps to understand the ingredients and how they work. Here’s an inside peek at some of the innovative ingredients you’ll find in Janson Beckett’s anti-aging line:

• Argireline. Acclaimed as the “best alternative to Botox,” Argireline blocks the nerve signals that control the contraction of facial muscles. This blocking action produces a significant reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

• PentaPeptide (Leuphasyl). PentaPeptide is an advanced amino acid featuring five peptides. Together, these peptides work to reduce the muscle contractions that are to blame for the formation of fine lines and wrinkles.

• Alpha lipoic acid. This amazing antioxidant targets free radicals — one of the major causes of aging skin. Research suggests that alpha lipoic acid is 400 times more potent than vitamins C and E, making it a go-to ingredient for restoring a youthful, radiant complexion.

• HeptaPeptide (Snap-7). Snap-7 is an advanced amino peptide that works rapidly to reduce the appearance of aging by blocking the muscle contractions that cause fine lines and wrinkles.

• Elastin. Like an elastic waistband, elastin allows the skin to temporarily stretch and return back to its normal size. Over time, our bodies produce less elastin, resulting in fine lines and wrinkles.

• Collagen. Similar to elastin, collagen is a naturally occurring component of skin that helps it maintain structure. Janson Beckett incorporates collagen in many products to help fill in lines and wrinkles. These formulas use hydrolyzed collagen, which consists of smaller molecules that are easily absorbed by the epidermis.

• Vitamin C ester. Vitamin C ester is an effective agent in repairing existing skin damage and aging by stimulating the production of collagen.
• DMAE. It’ been called a “facelift in a jar.” Dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE) firms the skin, creating a tighter, younger-looking appearance.

Soy. The benefits of soy go far beyond the kitchen table. Soy extracts are clinically proven to enhance skin by restoring hydration and smoothing out texture.

In addition to these innovative ingredients, you’ll also find that Janson Beckett’s products are packed with organic and all-natural extracts and oils — including thyme, lavender, sage and geranium — to naturally promote healthy skin.
