Celebrating Heavy Water

With the abundant options of skin care products on the market and the massive marketing hype, it is often difficult to decipher what is truly effective. Natural skin care may be called "natural" as long as a product contains just 10% of a natural ingredient (such as green tea or vitamin E). On the other hand, department store brands tout instant results from chemical-laden, highly fragranced, over-priced and ineffective formulas. At MyChelle Dermaceuticals, we go beyond natural, adhering to all non-toxic edicts and to formulas that support the skin's immune system. Our products are formulated with plant-based ingredients exhibiting chiral properties to permit effective absorption at the cellular level.

Dermaceuticals, (pharmaceutical-grade, pure ingredients for the skin), offer cutting-edge ingredients that have been thoroughly researched for effectiveness and as to what levels these nutrients must be present in a formula. For instance, MyChelle Dermaceuticals incorporates heavy water into our Fruit Enzyme Mist. The massive amounts of research available on heavy water can not be ignored, as it demonstrates this unique ingredient as an incredible cell protector and hydrator, lending itself well for a hydrating, anti-aging, ph-balancing toner…Mychelle's Fruit Enzyme Mist! Heavy water (D20) is 100% natural, is 10% heavier than water, and is extracted from sea water. It is a powerful antioxidant that protects skin from the stresses conveyed by solar radiation and climate, while sheltering skin cells from free-radical damage. It stays on the skin longer (due to its heaviness, it does not evaporate as quickly as H20), strengthens the cellular envelope and muscle structure of the skin. It even suppresses any tendency for a cell to become malignant! Heavy water is only one of the exceptional ingredients found in our Fruit Enzyme Mist. It also contains D-beta glucosamine from Chinese Foxglove, an essential building-block of the skin's own hyaluronic acid production (the largest component of collagen) that keeps the skin's layers in tighter alignment with each other; fruit enzymes that digest dead skin cells and continually soften and maintain a clear complexion so the skin can breathe better; hamamelis (or witch hazel) for its anti-inflammatory, wound healing, anti-itching, anti-carcinogenic and emollient properties, and much more.

Tip from the Founder:
Our founder keeps a Fruit Enzyme Mist on her bedside table, on her desk at work, and in her car to spritz her face often throughout the day & night.
