Apples can be used for anti aging. In fact, it is one of the key active ingredients in this range of anti aging products. Not just any apples mind you, but an endangered type of apples grown only in the Swiss Alps, which is rich in epigenetic factors and metabolites, ideal for stimulating and accelerating cell regeneration and renewal process, for a glowing radiant complexion.
These almost-extinct apples in the Swiss Alps do not turn brown when cut and left in the open and their tree branches appear to repair itself very quickly. These extraordinary properties were noted by the researchers who extracted their stem cells and used them as the main ingredient for FIL’s anti aging range of skin care products. The products, consisting of a cleanser and serum, costs $599 per set and customers who purchase them for home use have to be given specific instructions on how to use these products as the ingredients are very active.
If you are lazy, you can opt for the facial treatment using these advanced stem cell products – which is what I am trying today.
Senior therapist, Hanni, cleansed my face twice, first with a normal cleanser then again using the Stem-Cell cleanser. The cleanser stung slightly at the sides of my nose and felt acidic. This was followed by the Stem-Cell scrub which had a pleasant, fruity fragrance. The scrub warms up when it is rubbed which enables deeper penetration into the dermis to unclog pores. Hanni gave my face a thorough but gentle massage with the scrub which left it feeling squeaky clean. Mild extraction followed and then cotton wool soaked with rose water toner was placed on my skin to soothe it.
Next, Hanni applied the Stem-Cell serum on the right side of my face and used a lifting and toning machine, moving in firm upward strokes, to lift and improve my skin’s elasticity. When I looked into the mirror after she was done, I could see that my right jaw looked slightly more contoured than my left! This entire process took about 10 minutes, and consisted of about three rounds of machine work per side. After my face was lifted, Hanni gave me a quick facial massage with FIL’s in-house treatment cream. Then, she applied a foamy-looking mask which also contains the stem cells extract all over my face. She explains that the mask is light so that the smaller particles make it easier for my skin to absorb its goodness. After 10 minutes, Hanni gave me another invigorating facial massage with the mask using uplifting strokes. To finish off the luxurious treatment, toner and moisturizer were applied.
My face looked moisturized and brighter after the treatment. Before, I used to have to skulk home after a facial because of unsightly red marks, now my face was glowing, felt taut and even had a healthy rosy hue. I looked ready for a ball! This facial treatment may not be suitable for oily and acne-prone skin as the Stem-Cell products are rich, and may cause break outs, otherwise, I highly recommend it!
