BCPlus DMAE Topical Gel: Ingredients and Formulation

Our skin is a big deal – literally.

It’s the largest organ in the body and one of the most complicated. It has many roles in the maintenance of life and health, but also has many potential problems.

The skin is unique in many ways, but no other organ demands so much attention and concern in both states of disease and health. There is a huge focus on skin health, with fierce competition to have glowing, clearer, healthier, younger, and fresher skin. Who doesn’t want these effects, yet this focus can cause secondary problems with self-esteem and mental health.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR SKIN

The structure of the skin is divided into three layers known as the epidermis, dermis and hypodermis (subcutaneous layer). These layers are well defined but together they allow the skin to function effectively.

The epidermis is the outermost, cellular layer of the skin which varies in thickness depending on the body site. The epidermis resembles a “brick wall” of cells known as keratinocytes, which are bound tightly together and act to prevent free movement of moisture, pathogens and chemicals into or out of the body. The epidermal cells layer also develop contains hair follicles, sweat glands and sebaceous (oil) glands which extend down into the dermis layer below. known as the dermis. The small ducts from each of these glands open up onto the skin surface. Sweat and sebum (oil) provide an antibacterial and protective barrier on the skin.

The dermis lies beneath the epidermis and is20-30 times thicker.It’s made up of a dense layer of fibrous (collagen) and elastic (elastin) tissue. The dermis gives the skin its integrity, strength and elasticity. It also houses blood vessels, glands and hair follicles, as well as nerves and their receptors.

Beneath the dermis lies the subcutis (also known as the hypodermis), a specialized layer of adipose (fat) and fibrous tissue. The thickness of this layer varies dramatically depending on the site and a person’s body shape and weight. It cushions the body from external trauma, insulates from the cold and stores energy (fat). Cellulite is formed in this layer.

Medical experts have identified more than3,000 possible skin disorders.Some of the more common conditions are:

• Thinning skin: Most common in older adults

• 
  Stretch marks & scars: Pregnancy, weight gain, growth spurts, injuries

• Rashes: Skin irritation or medical conditions

• Dermatitis: Inflammation of the skin

• Eczema: Chronic inflammation and patchy thickening of the skin

• Psoriasis: Autoimmune condition that causes a variety of rashes

• Hives: Raised itchy patches, usually from an allergy

Solution to skin conditions

Earlier customer feedback on BCPlus Topical Oil led the team to explore a gentler, easier-to-apply topical format. Those observations informed formulation work, but customer experience does not establish clinical effectiveness for specific skin conditions.

During formulation development, several topical bases were explored for spreadability, delivery, and user experience. DMAE was selected as part of the water-based gel system and combined with beta-caryophyllene and the other botanical ingredients in the finished formulation.

What is DMAE and how does it benefit the skin?

BCPlus DMAE Topical Gel is a game-changer in the world of skincare. With its powerful formula, it can take your skincare routine to new heights. A human topical DMAE study reported reduced forehead lines and improved skin firmness.

DMAE is included as part of the topical formulation and is widely used in cosmetic research.

Acetylcholine participates in multiple neurological and neuromuscular processes.

DMAE has been studied in dermatologic and cosmetic formulation research.

Research on DMAE includes oxidative and skin-related biology.

Skin elasticity and collagen biology are areas examined in cosmetic research.

Botanical ingredients of BCPlus DMAE Topical Gel and their effects on the skin

The formulation combines DMAE, BCP, terpenes, botanical ingredients, and a gel base.

BCPlus DMAE Topical Gel combines beta-caryophyllene, DMAE, terpenes, and botanical ingredients in a water-based topical formulation.

Each ingredient has been carefully selected for its specific benefits and ability to enhance the overall health and appearance of the skin.

1. DMAE: As mentioned earlier, DMAE is the star ingredient of BCPlus DMAE Topical Gel. Its firming and toning properties help to improve the overall texture and appearance of the skin.

2. Natural Botanical Extracts: BCPlus DMAE Topical Gel contains a blend of natural botanical extracts, including green tea, aloe vera, and chamomile. The formula combines BCP, DMAE, humulene, terpineol, and botanical oils.

3. Antioxidants: To protect the skin against free radical damage, BCPlus DMAE Topical Gel is enriched with powerful antioxidants. These antioxidants help to neutralize free radicals and promote a youthful and radiant complexion.

Mixing in Terpenes for added benefit

Terpenes are fascinating organic compounds that are important for various reasons. As well as contributing to the taste and smell of certain plants, they can also provide several numerous health benefits.

Research on BCP includes CB2, inflammatory, and skin-related signaling.

Obviously, BCP is the highest percentage of our proprietary terpene blend. We also add humulene, terpineol, and a botanical essential-oil blend.

Humulene

Humulene, formerly classified as α-caryophyllene, is a sesquiterpene named afterHumulus lupulus, commonly known as the hops plant used in brewing. Hops and cannabis are both in the taxonomic family Cannabaceae, and humulene plays a big role in providing the same aromatic notes to both species of plants.

BCP has been examined across multiple areas of biological research.

Terpineol

BCP has been examined across multiple areas of biological research.

Additional botanical ingredients, and the reasoning behind the formula

Blue Yarrow

Blue yarrow is included as a botanical ingredient in the formulation. Its compounds have been studied in skin and inflammatory biology, but ingredient research should not be interpreted as proof that the finished BCPlus Topical Gel treats specific skin conditions.

Frankincense

Tree resin from Boswellia trees has been burned for centuries in religious ceremonies and for contemplative meditation. Oil from the resin has long been used in Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese health practices. Because of the oil’s significant level of α-pinene, preclinical research also indicates Frankincense may help maintain healthy skin structure. Nourishing and clarifying as an addition to daily skin care, the oil’s warm, spicy, herbal aroma creates a relaxing yet uplifting atmosphere.

St. John's Wort

St. John’s Wort(Hypericum perforatum), a wild-harvested plant with yellow flowers, has been used in traditional European medicine as far back as the ancient Greeks. It’s widely prescribed for mental health conditions such as depression in Europe.Historically, St. St. John’s wort contains bioactive compounds studied in skin and inflammatory signaling.https://www.nccih.nih.gov/health/st-johns-wort

German Blue Chamomile

German chamomile contains compounds studied in skin and inflammatory biology.

Tea Tree

Tea tree oil is a botanical ingredient widely used in topical formulations.

The antiseptic properties of tea tree oil may contribute to its ability to combatoily skin.The anti-inflammatory properties of tea tree oil make it useful in relieving the discomfort ofitchy skin.It soothes the skin and can also help heal infections that cause itchy skin.Research on tea tree oil use for specific conditions shows:
