Sweet almonds products may also add anti inflammatory benefits and have long been recognized to have a fine texture that leaves the skin feeling silky smooth. The other component of IntegriACTIVE FirmLIFT consists of small sized peptides of hydrolyzed rice proteins. The size of these peptides are typically less than 1400 Da. and the addition of the small peptides has a synergistic effect and greatly enhance the overall efficacy.

Technical Details & Test Data
- The Effectiveness of IntegriACTIVE FirmLIFT
The effectiveness of IntegriACTIVE FirmLIFT was evaluated in a variety of in vivo and in vitro studies. In Figure 1 we illustrate the ingredients capability to minimize wrinkles. After applying 4% of IntegriACTIVE FirmLIFT daily for 60 days, a 36% reduction in wrinkle length was observed. The study also showed a 17% reduction in wrinkle depth, a 19% reduction in their quantity and a 30% reduction in wrinkle surface area were also achieved. After statistically analyzing the results we can confirm this ingredient is capable of significantly decreasing wrinkle characteristics to help provide smoother and firmer looking skin. Figure 2 shows the capacity of this ingredient to deliver long term benefits by enhancing cellular proliferation. When used at 4% IntegriACTIVE FirmLIFT was able to increase proliferation by 72%. For this reason, this ingredient can also be used to significantly improve the skin’s suppleness and minimize dull and tired skin to reduce the noticeable signs of aging. Other studies that were conducted show that IntegriACTIVE FirmLIFT is also capable of providing long term skin lifting benefits while enhancing cellular recovery after UV damage, ATP consumption and collagen I synthesis. All of these benefits help to create a smoother and revived looking skin.
As a result this blend consisting of optimized rice peptides and the natural polymer derived from sweet almond peptides is an exceptional skin rejuvenating ingredient. IntegriACTIVE FirmLIFT is perfectly suited for cosmetic applications designed to revitalize the skin and to minimize and prevent further extrinsic aging. Additionally, the immediate perceivable benefits make IntegriACTIVE FirmLIFT the ideal dual action system which is also efficacious for helping to repair the visual signs of aging.
