Here we outline some of the ingredients used in the creation of Angel & Weightman® skincare products. We pride ourselves on
creating combinations of ingredients that restore vigour and health to the skin.
Algae
Algae is used to help add and maintain moisture in the skin (it often captures moisture in the air and draws it into the skin)
and increase collagen density improving skin's elasticity.
Our red algae, gathered off the shores of the Hawaiian Islands, increases cellular turnover and helps new cells organize
more evenly, making skin more supple and smooth.
Amino Acids
Water soluble crystalline electrolytes that link together to form proteins. They help to build cells, repair tissue and regulate
cell function.
Amino acids activate and utilize vitamins and nutrients, and carry oxygen to cells. Most essential amino acids cannot be
synthesized by the body, therefore, they must be consumed or applied topically.
Antioxidants
Protect skin from damage by slowing down the oxidation (aging) process and preventing free radicals
(scavengers of cells in the environment) from attacking healthy cells.
Antioxidants work synergistically, therefore it is more beneficial to use smaller doses of several different antioxidants than
a large amount of only one.
Botanicals
A vegetable blend prepared from bark, roots, and herbs, which soothes, heals and nourishes the skin and hair.
Our plant ingredients are specifically chosen to serve various functions on the skin:
Enzymes
Enzymes increase cellular turnover rate and cellular division,
Hydrolyzed Wheat Proteins
Proteins that are easily absorbed by the skin.
Lipids
Lipids are organic compounds consisting of fats and oils which are important components in living cells.
Oils such as Quinoa and Borage consist of carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins all of which are essential for the skin.
Lotus oil is a profound and powerful essence traditionally used for spiritual energy, balance, and purification.
Lotus oil is harvested from a small lake in India and the oil distillation process must take place within 5 hours of harvesting
the flower.
Natural Acids
These acids are natural exfoliators which are used to remove dead skin cells and renew the dermis.
Acids that are natural derivatives from citrus fruits(citric), wintergreen leaves (salicylic), apples (malic), rice bran (kojic),
and milk (latic).
Minerals
Inorganic compounds needed by plants and animals for enzyme creation, metabolic processes, and proper growth
and functioning.
Copper, Silver, and Gold are traditionally used as anti-bacterial agents. These minerals are most often applied topically to
fight off bacteria and fungus and prevent scarring, inflammation and hyperpigmentation.
Vitamins
Vitamins are complex organic substances necessary for the regulation of metabolism and the normal growth and function
of cells.
Vitamins A, C and E are anti-oxidants. Vitamins which are also antioxidants make for the best protection against free-radicals.
Most vitamins cannot be manufactured by the body and must be supplied by diet or topically.
