For centuries, Asian women have used rice water and extract to beautify their hair, face and skin. Rice water is rich in beauty minerals and vitamins that make it fantastic for both skin and hair.  Rice water has been used in eastern medicine to keep skin pliable and youthful-looking and to make hair grow strong and shiny since ancient time. In the Heian period, as early as the 9th century, women at the Japanese imperial court used fermented rice water to keep their hair long, healthy, and beautiful. Their beautiful long hair reached to the floor. 

The Yao ethnic women from the village of Huangluo in China is a testament to this tradition. Where the women of the Yao ethnic minority reside, a haircut is something that is not only infrequent, but often never done at all—and their hair is extremely long (often more than 6 feet in length!), thick, dark and shiny well into their later years. Plus these women do not have grey hair till late 80s. The Yao women believe that the fermented rice water, which they use to cleanse their hair, is what helps to keeps their hair long, dark and clean. Rice water enables these women to de-tangle and manage their long hair, which they wrap around their heads in an elaborate high bun that is often described with names such as ‘gazing god’s bun’ or the ‘cloud bun’.  According to an article published in China Daily, the secret for keeping their hair dark and clean is to wash it with rice water. It’s a natural shampoo and hair conditioner.

Efficacies:

• Provides both short- and long-term hydration to the skin.

• Reinforcing the barrier function of skin

• Increasing skin suppleness and firmness. 

• Increases skin elasticity and moisture.

Beta glucan is a natural compound, extracted from plants, that helps to maintain a youthful appearance for skin.

For thousands of years, folk medicine healers had recognized that rubbing a paste, called a poultice, made of oat bran onto the skin helped to relieve itching and pain and to help more quickly heal minor wounds, such as cuts, sores and rashes. 

​

When applied topically, beta glucan is quickly absorbed into the skin and is accepted by the immune system, starting a process that attacks invading bacteria and viruses. By using skin care products which contain beta glucan, the body receives this necessary compound to jump-start the process which results in the production of immune cells. 

In practical terms for human skin, beta glucan begins a process which will help heal skin from over-exposure to the sun, mild burns, rashes and even cuts and wounds. It will not only helps the body's immune system active and able to resist bacterial and viral infection, it also helps to stimulate the skin tissue to re-build surface cells and to restore the collagen structure. Fresh, youthful skin cells are grown while the supporting structural cells are also continually maintained. Beta glucan is an immune system guardian; it works at such a basic and important level - and in a completely natural way - that it provides the best and most basic skin care protection.

Grape seed extract is made from a by-product of the wine industry. As grapes are prepared for winemaking, the grapes are crushed (although the term “mashed” would be more accurate). After the juice is drawn off, a mixture of seeds and skins remains. The seeds are separated out, ground, treated and filtered to provide the grape seed extract. The grape seed extract is light, with small molecules, and is able to be absorbed easily into the skin. This allows it to take effect quickly, efficiently and effectively.

​

When applied topically, grape seed extract acts as an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA), which works in a variety of ways. It nourishes and strengthens the skin cells, particularly the collagen and elastin structures. This helps to keep the skin firm and youthful in appearance. AHA also improves the moisture barrier of skin cells, which allows them to accept and retain necessary moisture so that they remain healthy. In practical terms, this means that scarring which would normally occur from cuts or stretching (such as during pregnancy) can be reduced. Another effect is the strengthening of the walls of capillaries, the very fine blood cells just under the skin’s surface. As a result, the appearance of varicose veins can be reduced.

​

The resveratrol component of grape seed extract acts in at least two ways. The most powerful effect of resveratrol is as an anti-inflammatory agent. Swelling resulting from dermatitis, infection, cut or over-exposure to the sun’s radiation can be reduced as a result. Since, in plants, resveratrol acts as an antibacterial and antifungal agent, these benefits become available to human skin by topical application.

The term "anti-aging" is sometimes not well-defined. In the case of grape seed extract, this refers to the results of its antioxidant actions. The oligomeric procyanidins (OPCs) acts to scavenge, or bind with, free oxygen radicals in the skin’s cell system. Left alone, the free oxygen radicals cause the cells to weaken and die prematurely, a process which causes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Although the moisturization effects of AHA, described earlier, helps to "plump up" or fill out the skin cells and reduce the appearance of these lines and wrinkles, the antioxidant process of the OPCs keeps these lines and wrinkles from occurring in the first place.

Skin Protection                                                          

In Our System- Squalene is found naturally in the human blood and skin.  It works by strengthening collagen structure and deactivating the free radicals produced by exposure to the sun, effectively protecting us from UV radiation and other oxidative damage. At birth about 12% of our skin surface is made of squalene. In our mid-to-late twenties, its production begins to decline quite rapidly. And, by 50, production drops to below 5%.

In cosmetics, squalene from deep-sea shark livers has become a popular component in skin products. You will find this mostly in lotions and moisturizers because it is easily absorbed by the skin. Squalene as a lubricant reduces the appearance of fine lines and leaves the skin smooth, soft, and healthier than before. Similarly, it is also known to reduce acne breakouts.

In cosmetics and personal care products,  Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Leaf Water function as a skin conditioning agents. They enhance the appearance of dry or damaged skin and help to reduce flaking and restores the suppleness of skin.

Among the various traditional medicinal use of this plant through the years,  the primary use  has been for the treatment of skin conditions, and scientists are just now beginning to understand how it works and how it can benefit the skin.

Anti-inflammatory

One of witch hazel’s most impressive properties is its anti-inflammatory effects on conditions such as diaper rash, razor burn and bug bites. Inflammation is caused by free radicals in skin cells, and scientists at Japan’s Shiga Central Laboratory studied 65 plant extracts for their potential anti-inflammatory applications as an anti-aging treatment for skin. Only two of the extracts exhibited active oxygen-scavenging effects and protective activity against cell damage, with one being Hamamelis virginiana.

Antimicrobial

Another traditional use for witch hazel is to soothe poison ivy, treat chicken pox and heal bruises and cuts, all caused or irritated by viruses and bacteria. A German study in 2002, abstracted by the U.S. National Library of Medicine, investigated the antimicrobial activity of a Hamamelis distillate on bacteria and fungi such as Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans and other organisms in vitro. The results showed a significant antimicrobial activity for the witch hazel extract, leading the researchers to conclude that it can be helpful in preventing the bacterial colonization that has a central role in the development of atopic dermatitis and intertrigo dermatitis, as well as other microbial skin conditions.

Astringent

Witch hazel is considered to be a potent astringent due to the high level of tannins in the leaves, according to Drugs.com. The tannins help to tighten skin proteins which then form a protecting covering to help promote skin healing and stop bleeding. This property makes it particularly useful for treating skin conditions like eczema, as well as restoring vessel tone in varicose veins and also soothing hemorrhoids.

Moisturizer

Women frequently use witch hazel to lock moisture into skin. A study at the University Hospital Luebeck Dermatology Department in Germany treated children suffering from skin disorders and injuries with a Hamamelis ointment and found that it was safe and as effective as dexpanthenol. Dexpanthenola is a prescription drug used as a moisturizer to improve hydration of the stratum corneum, or outer skin layer, to reduce water loss from skin and to maintain skin softness and elasticity.

Sun Damage

Another traditional use for witch hazel is to treat sunburn and prevent peeling and flaking. Two separate studies at the BioSkin Institute for Dermatological Research and Development in Germany looked at witch hazel’s sun-protectant properties. The first, in 1998, treated healthy patients with a 10 percent hamamelis lotion after exposure to UVB doses, and the second, in 2002, treated healthy volunteers with the lotion after exposure to UVA radiation. In both instances, the lotion produced a significant suppression of skin redness or burning on the skin after the radiation exposure.

Bergamot is a natural cleanser, so adding it to any skin care formula helps remove dirt and impurities—no need for potentially dangerous, chemical preservatives. In addition, this oil is great for those with oily skin, as it helps to unclog pores. Bergamot has an added property of helping to balance oily skin.

Bergamot combines easily with other essential oils, making it a no-brainer for natural skin care formulas, especially because of its refreshing scent. The oil does have a slight tendency to increase your skin’s photosensitivity, though, so always wear sunscreen when using it. It is great that bergamot oil is included with Aqua Sun Cream product!
