Scientific Explanation
Scientific Explanation
Environmental factors, such as solar radiation, pollution, and smoking can accelerate damage to the skin through the generation of so-called “oxidative stress”. Moviestar™ pH Balancing Toner contains numerous beneficial bio-active compounds, including Vitamin C, and provides a boost of anti-oxidants to the skin which neutralize the oxidative stress by a process of electron transfer and/or donation.
⚜ Protection against photoaging:
Transurocanic acid is a by-product of fillagrin present in the skin, which acts as a chromophore for photons of solar radiation (mainly ultraviolet [UV] and, to a degree, infrared) leading to the formation of singlet oxygen. This triggers a cascade of events that lead to the formation of so-called “reactive oxygen species” or “free radicals.” Free radicals are highly toxic, unstable molecules that can cause damage to nucleic acids, proteins, and cell membranes. UV-induced reactive oxygen species also trigger the signal transduction cascade, which leads to upregulation of factors, such as activation protein-1 (AP-1) and nuclear factor-B, and downregulation of transforming growth factor-ß. These proteases collectively upregulate matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which degrade collagen, reduce collagen production, and increase elastin accumulation. This leads to the clinical manifestations of photoaging pigmentation, telangiectasias, coarse texture, deep wrinkles, and solar elastosis.
Sunscreens are only partially effective in blocking free radicals produced by UV exposure. Vitamin C has been shown to inhibit the activation of AP-1, which leads to a reduction in MMP production and collagen damage. In-vitro studies have also shown that vitamin C inhibits the biosynthesis of elastin. In animal studies, application of 5% ascorbic acid two hours prior to UV exposure was found to reduce skin wrinkling. The photoprotective effects of vitamin C are also seen in human clinical studies. One double-blind, placebo-controlled study on 10 subjects using 10% topical vitamin C over a 12-week period showed a statistically significant reduction in photoaged scores and improvement in wrinkling in vitamin C-treated patients as compared to placebo. A significant improvement in furrows on skin histology and clinical appearance was seen in another double-blind, placebo-controlled study using 5% topical vitamin C on 20 subjects over a six-month period.
⚜ Protection against UV-induced immunosuppression:
CD1a-expressing Langerhans cells are antigen-presenting cells present in the epidermis, which act by initiating a protective immune response. Their numbers are decreased upon acute and chronic UV exposure. Vitamin C-containing topical solutions have been shown to prevent the reduction of CD1a-expressing Langerhans cells upon UV radiation.
⚜ Protection against photocarcinogenesis:
UV-induced erythema and thymine dimer mutations contribute to photocarcinogenesis. In addition, UV-induced reactive oxygen species induce mutations on the p53 gene, which affect the repair of damaged deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and induce a process of programmed cell death (apoptosis). In laboratory studies, application of 10% topical vitamin C has been shown to reduce UVB-induced erythema by 52 percent and apoptotic sunburn cell formation by 40 to 60 percent. In clinical studies, vitamin C-containing solutions have been shown to reduce UV-induced thymine dimers, thereby potentially reducing the risk of photocarcinogenesis.
Antiaging effect:
Vitamin C is essential for collagen biosynthesis and provides an anti-aging effect. More importantly, it serves as a cofactor for prolyl and lysyl hydroxylase, key enzymes that cross-link and stabilize collagen fibers. Vitamin C also directly activates the transcription factors involved in collagen synthesis and stabilizes procollagen messenger RNA (mRNA) that regulates Type I and III collagen synthesis. In addition, vitamin C increases the gene expression of collagen and synthesis of the tissue inhibitor of MMP-1, which decreases collagen degradation. A clinical study showed that daily application of three-percent topical vitamin C over a four-month period led to a significant increase in the density of dermal papillae.
⚜ Replenisher of vitamin E:
Aside from its antiaging and photoprotective effects, vitamin C is also known to be the primary replenisher of vitamin E. Vitamin E is a liphophilic antioxidant and has a primary role in protecting cell membranes against oxidative stress and maintaining the collagen network in the skin. Similar to vitamin C, its levels are rapidly depleted after UV exposure. Several clinical studies have proved the synergistic antioxidant effect of vitamins C and E in photoprotection.
⚜ Antipigmentary effect:
Vitamin C also plays a role as an antipigmentation agent. It interacts with copper ions at tyrosinase-active sites and inhibits the action of the enzyme tyrosinase—the main enzyme responsible for the conversion of tyrosine into melanin—thereby decreasing melanin formation. A clinical study examining the effect of a topical formulation containing 25-percent vitamin C and a chemical penetration enhancer reported a significant decrease in pigmentation caused by melasma after 16 weeks.
Skin is a major human body component as delivery medium of cosmetic active ingredient, which contain multi-layered structure; (1) stratum corneum that composed with dead keratinized cells, (2) epidermis and dermis, and (3) sub-cutaneous tissue. Stratum corneum (SC) is acting as an excellent barrier properties to the skin. Due to keratinized cells of SC containing lipid matrix composed of fatty acids, ceramides, cholesterol, and cholesterol ester which has a cement-like function characteristic.
Through the topical delivery of active ingredient, there are three possible pathway which are intercellular, hair follicles and transcellular pathways. First, the well-known pathway (intercellular) is taking place where substance diffuses through stratum corneum via the lipid layers surrounded by keratinized cells. Second, delivery path which known as the hair follicles path, functions as a reservoir of active compound topically applied onto skin. This is attributable to the hair follicles part containing a dense network of blood capillaries that serve as supporting penetration medium. Third path is transcellular penetration that involve a direct delivery of active compound through the lipid layers and corneocytes to the living cells.

Scientific Explanation
Scientific Explanation
Environmental factors, such as solar radiation, pollution, and smoking can accelerate damage to the skin through the generation of so-called “oxidative stress”. Moviestar™ pH Balancing Toner contains numerous beneficial bio-active compounds, including Vitamin C, and provides a boost of anti-oxidants to the skin which neutralize the oxidative stress by a process of electron transfer and/or donation.
⚜ Protection against photoaging:
Transurocanic acid is a by-product of fillagrin present in the skin, which acts as a chromophore for photons of solar radiation (mainly ultraviolet [UV] and, to a degree, infrared) leading to the formation of singlet oxygen. This triggers a cascade of events that lead to the formation of so-called “reactive oxygen species” or “free radicals.” Free radicals are highly toxic, unstable molecules that can cause damage to nucleic acids, proteins, and cell membranes. UV-induced reactive oxygen species also trigger the signal transduction cascade, which leads to upregulation of factors, such as activation protein-1 (AP-1) and nuclear factor-B, and downregulation of transforming growth factor-ß. These proteases collectively upregulate matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which degrade collagen, reduce collagen production, and increase elastin accumulation. This leads to the clinical manifestations of photoaging pigmentation, telangiectasias, coarse texture, deep wrinkles, and solar elastosis.
Sunscreens are only partially effective in blocking free radicals produced by UV exposure. Vitamin C has been shown to inhibit the activation of AP-1, which leads to a reduction in MMP production and collagen damage. In-vitro studies have also shown that vitamin C inhibits the biosynthesis of elastin. In animal studies, application of 5% ascorbic acid two hours prior to UV exposure was found to reduce skin wrinkling. The photoprotective effects of vitamin C are also seen in human clinical studies. One double-blind, placebo-controlled study on 10 subjects using 10% topical vitamin C over a 12-week period showed a statistically significant reduction in photoaged scores and improvement in wrinkling in vitamin C-treated patients as compared to placebo. A significant improvement in furrows on skin histology and clinical appearance was seen in another double-blind, placebo-controlled study using 5% topical vitamin C on 20 subjects over a six-month period.
⚜ Protection against UV-induced immunosuppression:
CD1a-expressing Langerhans cells are antigen-presenting cells present in the epidermis, which act by initiating a protective immune response. Their numbers are decreased upon acute and chronic UV exposure. Vitamin C-containing topical solutions have been shown to prevent the reduction of CD1a-expressing Langerhans cells upon UV radiation.
⚜ Protection against photocarcinogenesis:
UV-induced erythema and thymine dimer mutations contribute to photocarcinogenesis. In addition, UV-induced reactive oxygen species induce mutations on the p53 gene, which affect the repair of damaged deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and induce a process of programmed cell death (apoptosis). In laboratory studies, application of 10% topical vitamin C has been shown to reduce UVB-induced erythema by 52 percent and apoptotic sunburn cell formation by 40 to 60 percent. In clinical studies, vitamin C-containing solutions have been shown to reduce UV-induced thymine dimers, thereby potentially reducing the risk of photocarcinogenesis.
Antiaging effect:
Vitamin C is essential for collagen biosynthesis and provides an anti-aging effect. More importantly, it serves as a cofactor for prolyl and lysyl hydroxylase, key enzymes that cross-link and stabilize collagen fibers. Vitamin C also directly activates the transcription factors involved in collagen synthesis and stabilizes procollagen messenger RNA (mRNA) that regulates Type I and III collagen synthesis. In addition, vitamin C increases the gene expression of collagen and synthesis of the tissue inhibitor of MMP-1, which decreases collagen degradation. A clinical study showed that daily application of three-percent topical vitamin C over a four-month period led to a significant increase in the density of dermal papillae.
⚜ Replenisher of vitamin E:
Aside from its antiaging and photoprotective effects, vitamin C is also known to be the primary replenisher of vitamin E. Vitamin E is a liphophilic antioxidant and has a primary role in protecting cell membranes against oxidative stress and maintaining the collagen network in the skin. Similar to vitamin C, its levels are rapidly depleted after UV exposure. Several clinical studies have proved the synergistic antioxidant effect of vitamins C and E in photoprotection.
⚜ Antipigmentary effect:
Vitamin C also plays a role as an antipigmentation agent. It interacts with copper ions at tyrosinase-active sites and inhibits the action of the enzyme tyrosinase—the main enzyme responsible for the conversion of tyrosine into melanin—thereby decreasing melanin formation. A clinical study examining the effect of a topical formulation containing 25-percent vitamin C and a chemical penetration enhancer reported a significant decrease in pigmentation caused by melasma after 16 weeks.
Skin is a major human body component as delivery medium of cosmetic active ingredient, which contain multi-layered structure; (1) stratum corneum that composed with dead keratinized cells, (2) epidermis and dermis, and (3) sub-cutaneous tissue. Stratum corneum (SC) is acting as an excellent barrier properties to the skin. Due to keratinized cells of SC containing lipid matrix composed of fatty acids, ceramides, cholesterol, and cholesterol ester which has a cement-like function characteristic.
Through the topical delivery of active ingredient, there are three possible pathway which are intercellular, hair follicles and transcellular pathways. First, the well-known pathway (intercellular) is taking place where substance diffuses through stratum corneum via the lipid layers surrounded by keratinized cells. Second, delivery path which known as the hair follicles path, functions as a reservoir of active compound topically applied onto skin. This is attributable to the hair follicles part containing a dense network of blood capillaries that serve as supporting penetration medium. Third path is transcellular penetration that involve a direct delivery of active compound through the lipid layers and corneocytes to the living cells.
