An amino acid is the smallest component of a protein. Two amino acids create a peptide where the end molecules are called “messenger molecules”. They initiate the healing process by synthesizing new cells, collagen and elastin to diminish wrinkles. Chains of peptides create a polypeptide. In order for a polypeptide to become a protein, it has to have some sort of biological function within the body.

Hence, a peptide is a “broken down” protein. Whenever there is injury i.e. a cut to the finger that bleeds, it means that the collagen and elastin fibers have suffered an injury because the wound is in the dermal level. The messenger molecules send out chemical messages for the building up of new fibers! Therefore, when you apply a topical peptide formula containing a tetra peptide, it tricks the skin into believing that it is wounded and hence, starts the process of creating a new matrix along with the protein fibers and lines and wrinkles are miraculously diminished through consistent use!

To simulate a skin wound and create regeneration, use Rhonda Allison peptide formulas – Peptide 38, Satin Peptide, Amino Peptide Serum or C-Peptide Complex!

CLEANSERS & BUFFING GRAINS – Purify & Exfoliate

Most people under-cleanse and over-moisturize – but in order for skin to accept nutrients it must be squeaky clean, so this first step may be the most important one toward healthy skin. Proper cleansing is essential to skin health. It is important for one to understand how to cleanse skin and to take time to insure skin is free of surface residue and make-up. Always apply cleanser with dampened hands to face and neck and work into skin for several minutes. Remove cleanser with a wet, warm, soft, white cloth. Using a white cloth is helpful because it lets you see how clean your skin is. If nothing is on the cloth after several rinses, then you know your skin is clean. Buffing grains are very beneficial for deeper cleanses and to exfoliate dead surface cells. Be cautioned to not over-scrub the skin and use as directed. A buffing grain may be the perfect support as a daily cleanse for one skin, but for another, once a week is all that is needed.

Be sure to ask Kimberly or Shana which of our cleansers best suits your skin type!
