Potent antioxidant. Can significantly reduce the appearance of aged skin and wrinkles. Has been found to improve appearance of aged skin. Potent moisturizer as liposomes can penetrate into skin minimizing water-loss. Accompanying vitamin E and vitamin C are needed to activate coenzyme to its active state. Shows hair growth active by stimulating the proliferation of hair follicle papilla and by protecting mitochondrial DNA. It is ideal to fight against scalp and hair aging but also to reinforce and revitalize hair.

Vitamin-like molecule (ubiquinone, ubidecarenone) obtained from plant material. Q10 is encapsulated in nano-sized liposomes consisting of a phospholipid double nano-emulsion with vitamin E and vitamin C (ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate) to maintain activity, enhance skin penetration & potency. The liposomes have an average particle size of about 50nm. Can be easily incorporated into aqueous formulas. Activity 6.8-7.3% Q10 (liposome-encapsulation largely reduces the amount of Q10 required for effectiveness as compared to non-encapsulated pure Q10). Orange-opaque liquid, faint odor.
