The History of Youth Gems®

We have many informative articles in our knowledge section about Professor Vladimir Khavinson’s work on short-chain peptide bioregulators (located in food), that act as highly specific gene switches.

You can read more about this here:

• Peptide Regulation of Aging
• Safety of natural peptide bioregulatorsInterview with Dr Khavinson – The Role of Peptide Bioregulators

This research provided the foundation for peptide-based skin care solutions, Youth Gems® being one of the latest in this field.

Explore the full Youth Gems® Range

There are 5 products in the full Youth Gems® line up. These are:

• Body Milk – a light cream for most areas of the body, designed to aid skin elasticity and texture.
• Day Cream – one of the core products in the range, Day Cream is designed to provide resilience to the skin against the signs of aging and improve blood flow. Designed for daytime use.
• Night Cream – the Night Cream gives the same beneficial effects as the Day Cream but has been designed to be used at night.
• Tonic – the tonic aids skin in being firmer and taut, it may be splashed on as required.
• Serum – the serum is designed to be used sparingly on the face and neck to aid fine lines and wrinkles.

All of the products in the Youth Gems® range should be applied onto clean, dry skin- avoiding the eyes; makeup can be applied after absorption – if required.

It is possible to use the different products in conjunction with each other to achieve maximum effects. Examples of this combination therapy could be:

• Body Milk followed by Tonic and then a thin layer of Day Cream.
• Cleanse with Tonic then apply Night Cream.

Trials and Results

Various clinical trials and examinations have been carried out at the St. Petersburg Biogerontology Institute on the effects of short-chain peptides when applied to skin cells. The conclusion of some of these have been:

• The blood vessel peptide has aided metabolism in vascular cell walls to return to a normal level for each age group tested, despite adversary influences such as environmental factors.
• The pineal peptide works against the damaging effects of free radicals synthetized in the skin, leading to premature skin aging.
• In volunteers with thermal radiation in their skin, blood flow levels were shown to be increased when using Youth Gems® products.
• Skin surface was shown to have a marked improvement in smoothness, reduction of small wrinkles and increased elasticity.
