Turbo-charging the humble vitamin E

Everybody loves a multi-tasking product, but when that product also delivers ground-breaking technology right to the depths of our skin, we like it even more. BioElixia’s® new Multi-Purpose Rescue Balm has not one but two innovations that will make you rethink the efficacy of your current skincare regime.

Turning vitamin E from a humble ingredient to a supercharged skin saviour, BioElixia general manager Greg Moses talks to beautydirectory about the power of the brand’s TPM® dermal delivery technology and Vital ET ingredient.

What is TPM® dermal delivery technology?
Derived from a unique form of soluble vitamin E, TPM® (Targeted Penetration Matrix) is a world-class delivery technology (molecule) that delivers key cosmetic ingredients further into the skin’s dermal layers. Standard skincare products just sit on the surface of your skin where they’re easily washed or wiped away. TPM® puts more of the good things where they need to be - further into the skin.

How does it work?
Imagine this TPM® delivery technology to be like a small flexible onion with multiple layers. It traps and carries a host of key active ingredients within its multiple layers, delivering this cargo down into the skin’s dermal layers.

How was TPM® dermal delivery technology discovered?
14 years ago our scientists discovered that humans expel vitamin E from the skin naturally and set about developing the theory that if vitamin E comes out, it must go back in.

Can you tell me more about Vital ET?
Vital ET is our proprietary form of soluble vitamin E (Tocopheryl Phosphate). Normal vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate) is not soluble and we have set about to create this more potent and effective soluble form.

What ingredients/properties can be found in Vital ET?
Our Vital ET is derived from natural sources like soybeans and wheat germ and is a pure and soluble source of natural vitamin E. Vital ET has enhanced anti-redness and soothing properties along with some anti-inflammatory properties. It’s a real “calming” ingredient.   

How does the Vital ET turbo-charge vitamin E?
Standard vitamin E is put through a proprietary biochemistry process to make it soluble and more available to the skin. When combined with our TPM®  dermal delivery system (also derived from vitamin E), we have an enhanced form of vitamin E that is more beneficial to the skin.    

What makes this ingredient so amazing?
Our Vital ET takes the humble vitamin E one step further to make it more bioavailable, more readily absorbed or available at the area of application. It is a potent ingredient, turbo-charging the normal vitamin E, making it a must-have to soothe the visible signs of skin redness and sensory discomfort. A scientifically-advanced form of vitamin E, this wonder ingredient provides a skincare solution for clear, comfortable skin and a visibly healthy-looking tone. Vital ET is an excellent bifunctional ingredient to use in formulations for sensitive skins, or as the key ingredient to soothe the visible signs of skin redness and sensory discomfort. It has great anti-inflammatory properties.

Vital E is found in your Multi-Purpose Rescue Balm. What makes this product stand out from others?
Our unique formula is based on high concentrations of Vital ET, making the Multi-Purpose Rescue Balm like no other on the market. Additionally fortified with natural floral waters of lavender, rose and chamomile, plus the ceramide effects of rice powder, we are able to deliver amazing results when it comes to the appearance of irritated, unhappy skin. Sensory discomfort becomes a thing of the past, plus the product is both sensitivity- and dermatologically-tested for peace of mind.
