• A safer topical alternative to Botulinum Toxin
• Effective in just 1 week
• A widely known solution for 1st to appear wrinkles
Science
One of the most striking signs of ageing is the increase of wrinkles on the face.
This can occur naturally over time and is identified by certain biochemical,
histological, and physiological changes that are amplified by environmental
exposure and other secondary factors such as the pull of gravity or repeated
facial movements caused by the contraction of muscles of facial expression.

Muscles are contracted when the vesicle in the motor neuron releases a
neurotransmitter. Argireline® peptide mimics the N-terminal end of Snap-25
and it competes with the natural protein for a position in the Snare complex.
If the Snare complex is slightly destabilised, the vesicle cannot release
neurotransmitters efficiently and therefore muscle contraction is attenuated,
preventing the formation of lines and wrinkles.

Applications
Argireline® peptide can be incorporated into cosmetic formulations where
the removal of deep lines or wrinkles on the forehead or around the eyes is
desired.
Lipotec has developed a wide range of active
ingredients and delivery systems through
different sophisticated technologies for their use
in cosmetics and cosmetotextiles.
Below are some examples of products in these ranges.

 Société du Ghassoul
& de ses dérivés SEFRIOUI SARL

Founded in 1954, Société du Ghassoul et de ses Dérivés (Ghassoul and

Bamboo Charcoal
Bamboo charcoal has been used in many Asian countries for centuries. It is
known as the “black diamond” of healers. After the bamboo is harvested it is
“carbonised” at extremely hot temperatures. See below the list of impressive
benefits of bamboo charcoal's use in soap:

Benefits
• Bamboo Charcoal can absorb minerals, toxins, impurities, and other
harmful substances from your skin, leaving you with stronger, healthier
skin. It can act as a natural exfoliant to remove dead skin cells.

• Bamboo Charcoal is an effective, natural treatment for acne. The bamboo

charcoal in the soap makes it more absorbent than normal soaps and as
a result it can clean deep inside the skin pores, cleaning better than normal
soap.

• The skin under the eyes is more tender than our other facial skin. As a
result, when dirt collects in the pores of under eye skin it starts to sag with
weight and we begin to look old Activated Bamboo Charcoal
soap gets down deep into the pores in the under eye skin properly clearing
them of dirt which ultimately prevents sagging. As a result you look
younger. Win!

• Another use for Activated Bamboo Charcoal soap is to treat

eczema, psoriasis and dry cracked skin. Bamboo kills bacteria and bamboo
charcoal cleans the skin thoroughly and allows the body’s natural
moisturisers to work effectively on eczema and psoriasis.

• Bamboo is not only antibacterial but also anti viral, anti fungal and
antimicrobial. As a result Activated Bamboo Charcoal soap is
ideal for people who are exposed to or battle fungal, viral and
other bacteria based problems of the skin.

• When used in bath water, Activated Bamboo Charcoal releases many

beneficial minerals, such as calcium, potassium and magnesium into the
water. This creates a soothing, relaxing hot spring-water like effect.
Through our partners in the USA, we can now offer Unifect-GSE™, a bioflavonoid
concentrate synthesised from the seeds and pulp of grapefruits. This is an extremely
potent and effective broad spectrum bactericidal and fungicidal compound with
antiviral and anti parasitic properties. Unifect-GSE™ is prepared from the seeds,
pulp, and white membranes of grapefruits (Citrus grandis).

Unifect-GSE™ is a concentrated grapefruit seed extract developed, after years of

research, by the manufacturer’s founder, Dr. Jakob Harich. The patented extraction
process protects Unifect-GSE™. This technology enables us to preserve the active
properties of the extract that contribute to its effectiveness against bacteria and fungi.

These antibacterial and antifungal properties of Unifect-GSE™ make it an ideal

cosmetic preservative in products such as shampoos, creams, lotions, scrubs
and soaps. Unifect-GSE™ is soluble in a variety of mediums, making it simple to
incorporate into existing beauty and personal care formulations. It naturally contains
citrus bioflavonoids and leaves a clean, mild citrus odour.

Unifect-GSE™ has a Kosher Certification supervised by Florida Kosher Services.

VANCITRIX is our new Organic and non-GMO food additive, based on

SINGLE COLOUR CHOLESTERIC LIQUID CRYSTAL MIXTURES FOR
THE PERSONAL CARE INDUSTRY
LCR Hallcrest has been a leading formulator and micro-encapsulator of cholesteric liquid crystal
(CLC) mixtures for more than 25 years. The Company was a pioneer in the use of CLC mixtures
as ingredients in skin care cosmetics in the late 1980s and has supplied the international
personal care industry with an increasing range of novel raw materials based on its proprietary
technologies ever since.

CHOLESTERIC LIQUID CRYSTALS (CLCs)

Liquid crystals are materials which exhibit the properties of both crystalline solids and isotropic
liquids. There are many different types of liquid crystal and LCR/Hallcrest’s expertise is centred
on one particular type called Thermotropic CLCs.

These unique materials possess a range of attributes that make them ideal for use in the personal
care industry. LCR/ Hallcrest’s CLC mixtures are novel oily blends of cholesteryl esters which
have been carefully formulated to produce an optimised range of visual effects across the full
colour spectrum. The most striking property of these materials is their characteristic opalescent/
iridescent appearance which results from their ability to selectively reflect visible light. In addition
to being able to impart special aesthetics, CLC mixtures exhibit an occlusive emolliency on the
skin and have also been used to deliver and stabilise lipophilic actives (e.g. vitamins).
SINGLE COLOUR CLC MIXTURES (UC Series)
There are two principal variables that are used to modify the properties of these types of mixtures.
They are:
1) The colour (of light reflected by the LC).
2) The clearing point (the temperature above which the mixture ceases to show liquid crystal
properties - the cholesteric LC to isotropic liquid transition temperature).
Single colour CLC formulations can readily be made which reflect light of any colour (band of
wavelengths), and which have clearing points from ambient temperatures - 25ºC to in excess
of 70ºC.

STANDARD MIXTURES
A range of standard single colour CLC mixtures has been developed, reflecting, respectively,
Red (UC10), Green (UC30) and Blue (UC40). These have clearing points between 50-55ºC.
Mixtures showing Orange (UC20) and Violet (UC50) are also available, as is a special "silver"
mixture (UC60) which reflects in the IR region.

HIGH CLEARING POINT MIXTURES

A range of mixtures with clearing points in the range 60-70ºC is available. These high clearing
point mixtures are intermiscible in the same way as the standard mixtures.

CUSTOM MADE MIXTURES

LCR will be happy to custom formulate LC mixtures to customer requirements.
Colour and clearing points need to be specified. Ideally, a sample should be provided for
colour matching. Please contact us for more information.
