The Age-Defying Science in Airelle Skincare
What Causes Our Skin to Age?
There are many factors that cause our skin to age. Some things we have no control over, such as our genetically determined natural aging process. However, there are other causes we can influence. Our environment and lifestyle choices can cause our skin to age prematurely. The medical term for this type of aging is “extrinsic aging.”
Ultraviolet and Infrared radiation from sun exposure is a leading cause of extrinsic, or premature, aging of the skin. UV and IR radiation penetrates the skin and breaks down the collagen which causes the lines and wrinkles to appear in your skin. Another leading cause of extrinsic aging is our exposure to free radicals - charged chemical particles, or molecules, in our environment that damage our skin cells. Free radicals not only damage our skin cells causing wrinkles, lines and blemishes to form in our skin, but can also cause inflammation, increase signs of sun damage, and in some cases, even contribute to the development of skin cancer.
Don’t Just Treat – Prevent!
Antioxidants play a crucial role in our body’s defense against free-radical and environmental damage to our skin. As their name implies, antioxidants stop the oxidative damage that these harmful molecules cause to our skin, therefore helping to keep the youthful appearance of our skin. Antioxidants also work to help speed up the skin’s natural repair systems, directly inhibiting further damage.
Not only do Airelle products contain powerful, highly concentrated antioxidants, they also contain BERRIMATRIX®, a proprietary ingredient developed by Airelle. BERRIMATRIX® that is becoming a major player in skin protection and wrinkle prevention. A clinical study has shown that BERRIMATRIX® significantly protects skin cells against harmful UV and IR radiation, which breaks down the collagen in skin cells leading to the formation of wrinkles and fine lines. By helping to prevent collagen breakdown, BERRIMATRIX® can prevent wrinkles and fine lines from forming in the first place!

Some of the powerful, skin-boosting antioxidants and other Super Natural ingredients used in Airelle products are listed below, along with their benefits to the skin:
The powerful ingredients behind our anti-aging and preventative skincare.
Aloe Vera - all of Airelle products are suspended in Aloe Vera instead of water. Aloe Vera soothes and heals the skin, and reduces inflammation.
Blueberry - Contains phytonutrients called Anthocyanins, which have been shown to stabilize collagen matrix, help promote collagen synthesis and improve circulation. Blueberry also contains Polyphenols, which are natural compounds that have been shown to protect the skin against photoaging. Lastly, blueberry improves the skin's firmness and overall appearance.
Sodium Hyaluronate - The sodium salt of Hyaluronic Acid, helps give skin its volume by holding onto water inside the skin. This very popular anti-aging ingredient helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving the skin a youthful appearance. Sodium Hyaluronate is found to be more effective than Hyaluronic Acid itself in topical, anti-aging skincare products due to its smaller molecular size making it easier to absorb into the skin. The larger macromolecules of Hyaluronic Acid are most effective when injected, and therefore found in injectable fillers.
Vitamin C – Shown to help rejuvenate aged and photo-damaged skin by preventing collagen breakdown and assisting in new collagen growth. Vitamin C also helps improve skin firmness, boost skin elasticity and mitigate the harmful effects of free radicals.
Peptide – Naturally derived, and provides significant, long-term reduction of fine lines and wrinkles.
