Sustainable Youth Brings Aloe and Science Together
Sustainable Youth touts its products as being “the first real scientific advancement in Aloe vera in over 6,000 years.”
Yes, that’s pretty much a “wow!” statement, but the skincare line has something unique:
It has Alasta®, a potent immunostimulatory and concentrated anti-aging ingredient that is created from the rind of the Aloe vera plant.
The skincare line consists of 5 products all formulated with this unique proprietary blend.
What we like even more is that 95% of the ingredients in Sustainable Youth products are 97% organic and natural, petrolatum, propylene glycol and paraben-free, free of animal-derived ingredients, and never tested on animals.
5 Unique Skincare Products with Alasta:
The skincare line also doesn’t include any endangered plant species (I’m sure aloe plants everywhere are breathing a sigh of relief)!.
If there’s any downside, it’s that biotech is pricey and as you can see from the graphic showing the Sustainable Youth products above, some of these are pricey.
We have tried Sustainable Youth previously on advicesisters.com and really liked the Ultra Creamy Cleansing Lotion.
Our contributing reporter Jill Golden tried additional Sustainable Youth products because we had such a positive experience with just one….
…and Here’s Jill’s Report:
I am intrigued by alasta®. It is the featured ingredient of Sustainable Youth® – a highly effective new skincare collection that has been visibly improving my both the look and feel of my skin.
It is an exceedingly concentrated ingredient that is derived from inside the rind of the Aloe Vera leaf. (Previous beauty products on the market utilized Aloe Vera gel.)
Alasta is a new discovery with anti-aging properties that also stimulate the performance of your immune system!
Apparently, the reason my skin has visibly better elasticity in the midst of this ruggedly stormy spring is that Alasta is boosting my body’s ability to repair itself.
Alasta helps skin get better at resisting inflammation, as well as fighting off free radical damage and collagen fiber degradation.
On a scientific level, Alasta stimulates “macrophages” a type of white blood cells into action. Macrofages
Macrofages then release agents that activate cells in the immune system, and there you have it: better skin!
Results:
In case that’s too much science for you, I can tell you that my skin is unquestionably softer and more supple since I have been using Sustainable Youth Super Boost Night Serum in combination with Sustainable Youth Anytime Lift Eye Treatment in the evenings before I head off to sleep.
I have super-sensitive skin, so the night serum feels tingly when I put it on.
And I have been using quite liberal amounts, so there is a thin film on my face as I head off to sleep.
When I awake in the morning, however, my skin actually feels smoother than it has since my early 20’s – and there is no residual film left at all.
I have also been using the eyelift treatment during the day, it has an immediate brightening effect that makes me look vibrantly awake, even before my coffee!
Droopy eyelids are my least favorite of my facial features, and I can happily also detect a bit of a lift.
Both products have a light gel-like quality and a delicate fragrance evocative of green summer fields.
Key Ingredients:
these are some of the key ingredients in Sustainable Youth Skincare products
Here are some additional Sustainable Youth Night Serum key ingredients that work synergistically with alasta:
• Vegetable proteins for tissue repair and regeneration
• A proprietary blend of organically grown natural extracts provide antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-aging effects
• Humectants and emollients attract moisture from the air help maintain hydration levels and keep skin soft, moist and supple
In addition to natural extracts, humectants and emollients, Sustainable Youth Anytime Eyelift Treatment also utilizes:
• A special blend of natural gums and biopolymers to mechanically smooth the skin
• Potent natural herb blends to neutralize free radicals and prevent further damage
• Vegetable proteins to repair tissue damage and promote regeneration
There is a third important Sustainable Youth product that can be used in combination with the night serum and eyelift treatment for the most effective results: Sustainable Youth Firming and Revitalizing Serum. It is a seemingly weightless serum that gives your skin a remarkable radiance and glow.
The firming and revitalizing serum includes a combination of breakthrough green ingredients including a powerful blend of white and green teas that inhibit the development of enzymes that degrade proteins, while protecting collagen and elastin. Rooibos tea is a particularly potent antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals and firms the skin.
Cost:
The suggested retail prices for these innovative and effective new skin treatments are:
Super Boost Night Serum $150 for 15 ml.
Anytime Eyelift Treatment $60 for 12 ml.
Firming and Revitalizing Serum $110 for 30 ml.
Editor’s Note: We can’t say that your skin will magically transform back into that of a teenager (unless you really are close to the beginning of double digits in age) but we can say that the natural and organic nature of these products, the quality, and the pampering pleasure of using them, plus the way they’ll make your skin look and feel, will keep you wanting to stay on a regular regimen of Sustainable Youth….
…and that’s more than half the battle with any skincare you purchase, to love and use what your skincare!
