Ingredient Spotlight: Stem Cells & why they’re in our skincare?

Our skin’s are filled with stem cells but as we age and are exposed to external aggressors these cells die and have trouble repairing themselves. These stem cells are crucial to our skin’s function but what do we do once they are gone?

What are Stem Cells?

Stem cells are a unique cell in the body that have the ability to become many different types of cells through a specific process (No Science lessons here so we’ll not go into any detail!).  But stem cells play a huge part in the healing of the body, for example: the tissue in our skin needs constant renewal, a variety of stem cells are needed to maintain and repair our skin on a daily basis. Researchers have identified the specific stem cells responsible for making the epidermal layer, hair follicles and skin pigments.

 

Stem cells in skincare?

Stem cells in skincare are sourced from plants, fruit or vegetables but these are not live stem cells but extracts of the cells so basically, they are DEAD fragments of the stem cells making them virtually useless! So we use BIOMIMETICS – Biomimetics is the process of taking a live substance and looking at in under a microscope to study how it functions.  Scientists then ‘Mimic’ the properties of the live substance and create a replicated version that behaves exactly like the natural source but does not have any of the disadvantages associated with the use of plant extracts.

 

Why would I use stem cells?

We all go through hard times in our lives whether its illness, stress or environmental elements like smoking or medications all of these factors have an effect on our skin. Anything happening ‘internally’ in our bodies will show through our skin (Like when somebody says “You look exhausted’).  Also perfect for sensitive skin’s, highly reactive or damaged skin’s. Stem cells are your best friend at these times as they aid in the skin’s recovery and protect and reactivate our own cells.

Extra Tip:  Stem cells are perfect for those on Roaccutane – Roaccutane being an extremely potent medication for those with severe acne.
