A pivotal study by researchers at the University of Maryland explored methylene blue's anti-aging effects using 3D human skin models derived from middle-aged human skin cells. These models closely replicate actual human skin structure and function. Key findings include:
Improved Hydration and Thickness:Methylene blue-treated skin retained more water and increased in thickness, leading to plumper and smoother skin with reduced fine lines and wrinkles.
Enhanced Collagen and Elastin Levels:Treated skin showed higher levels of collagen and elastin, essential components for maintaining skin firmness and elasticity. Methylene blue stimulates fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen production, enhancing their ability to repair and regenerate the skin, thereby reducing fine lines and wrinkles
Wound Healing and Mitochondrial Repair:Methylene blue combats cellular aging by reducing oxidative stress in mitochondria and increasing the expression of collagen and elastin, fundamental for skin health.
Increased Cell Proliferation:Methylene blue enhances skin cell proliferation, replacing old and damaged cells with new, healthy ones. This leads to a reduction in visible signs of aging.
This balm combines the power of Methylene Blue with the skin healing benefits of tallow and aloe vera to give you a total cell refresh.
Great for anti-aging but also as an aftersun - The aloe vera mixed with peppermint oil gives sunburnt skin a soothing and healing repair.
**In congruence with research that shows Methylene Blue is almost twice as effective in the presence of Vitamin C (see study in picture three)
We have revised recipe to increase the amount of Vitamin C.
This reacts with the MB to neutralize the color but almost doubles effectiveness
We know the original recipe was a popular product but we are in the game of Bioavailability **
