NanoActive Lutein is a new lutein nano liposome preparation (NanoLiposomal Lutein).
Product Name: Nano Liposomal Lutein; Nanoactive Lutein; BioaActive Lutein; Soluble Lutein CAS: 127-40-2

Description: Lutein, also known as plant lutein, coexists with zeaxanthin in nature. It is the main pigment that forms the macular area of the human eye. Human eyes contain high amounts of lutein which can only be supplemented by the intake of lutein as human body can not produce this element by itself. Without lutein, human will lose eyesight. A natural carotenoid found in vegetables and fruits, Lutein is a good antioxidant that protects cells in human body from the damage of free radical. Lutein is good for vision health as it can resist sunlight, blue light in computer and cellphone screens, relieve eye fatigue, sore eyes, tears, myopia, and prevent eye diseases such as cataracts and maculopathy. The skin is the only barrier between internal and external environment for human body. Lutein also plays a role in filtering blue light and strong anti-oxidation for the skin, greatly avoiding the damage of light to skin cells and preventing various kinds of skin disease caused by intense light stimulation. The high-energy blue light from electronic screen inhibits the generation of melatonin, penetrates deep into the skin layer, damages collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin, accelerating skin aging, and may cause bad skin conditions such as enlarged pores, dark circles and hemorrhoids. Functioning as blue light filter and anti-oxidation agent, Lutein is the most effective biological actives that protects the skin from high-energy blue light. NanoActive Lutein developed by new nano-transfer technology solves lutein’s problems including low solubility, low stability and tendency to lose or change color, which make it hard to apply in skin care products. It is a multi-effect skincare actives that is anti-blue light, anti-oxidation and anti-aging. Lutein also performs well in skincare products, eliminating ubiquitous blue light and free radicals.

• Effectively inhibits the formation of harmful free radicals, slows down skin aging, and facilitates bright and elastic skin;
• Absorbs large amounts of daylight, computer light, and office lighting to protect skin against damage caused by UVA/UVB and blue light.

A type of carotenoid, Lutein is a natural colorant or pigment. It is found in dark green leafy plants such as spinach, various fruits and corn. The egg yolk also contains lutein. Lutein nutritionally supports human eyes and skin. The eye is the only organ in our body that receives external light stimuli, while the skin is the only one that is directly exposed to the external environment. As an antioxidant, Lutein can eliminate free radicals in human body or reduce its damage. Excessive free radicals can cause various chronic diseases. Lutein can improve vision and also ensure the health of the eye by reducing the risk of macular degeneration. Lutein can increase the skin’s antioxidant capacity and help prevent free radical damage.

Lutein structure

Mobile phones and computers are now indispensable in urbanites’ lives. Smartphones and computers can cause the same damage to our skin as ultraviolet rays from the sun because the blue light emitted by the screen can inhibit melatonin generation and penetrate deep into the skin layer, damaging collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin, and accelerating skin aging. It can also cause skin problems such as enlarged pores, dark circles, and hemorrhoids.

Lutein is the most effective active against blue light damage. It can filter out up to 90% of high-energy blue light from the visible spectrum. Blue light is different from the commonly known ultraviolet A and ultraviolet B in the invisible light spectrum. Blue light can trigger oxidation reactions and cause potential free radical damage for human organs such as eyes and the skin that are exposed to both indoor light as well as sunlight.

Lutein mechanism

The antioxidant activity of natural lutein can protect skin cells, by preventing oxidation and free radicals from the very beginning, and working effectively to whiten the skin, remove freckle and wrinkle, moisturize, increase skin elasticity, glossiness and smoothness, and delay skin aging.

As it is a fat-soluble compound, Lutein is hard to be absorbed by the skin with ordinary emulsions. The lutein nanoactive material with a particle size of less than 30 nm developed by the nano-transport system (NDS)completelysolves the solubility and stability problems of lutein, allowing lutein to be stably encapsulated in the nanocarrier so that it hugely improves absorption efficiencyandbio-availability and becomes suitable for aqueous agent system.

Nanoactive C is a novel vitamin C nanoliposome formulation (NanoLiposomal C).
Product Name: Nano Liposomal Vitamin C; Nanoactive Vitamin C; BioaActive Vitamin C; BioActive VC; NanoActive VC; Oil Soluble Vitamin C; Fat Oil Soluble Vitamin C; Water Soluble Vitamin C; CAS: 50-81-7

Description: Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), also known as L-ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin.” Vitamin C is an important antioxidant, involved in multiple reactions in vivo which has functions such as promoting collagen production, blocking melanin synthesis, scavenging free radicals, and preventing skin aging. It is one of the most classic and active actives in cosmetics. Vitamin C is insoluble in fat-soluble systems and extremely unstable in aqueous solution, which limits its use greatly. Although a variety of vitamin C derivatives have been developed and used, they must be converted into a prototype vitamin C into the body to function, and their activity is greatly reduced. L-Vitamin C (“Left C”) is the only form of vitamin C that can be directly absorbed by human skin. NanoActive C is a L-Vitamin C nano-active material developed by Nano Transmission System (NDS) and with an average particle size of less than 30 nm. It also solves the problem of solubility and stability of vitamin C, allowing vitamin C to be stably encapsulated in nano-carriers. It can greatly increase the absorption rate and bioavailability, and greatly expand its application range.
