The active biological ingredient: Helix Aspersa Müller Glycoconjugates is collected pure from live snails in Chile  and made into a balm in the USA in a cosmetic laboratory that uses a superior natural cosmetics technology.

The compound acts as a biological activator of both the elimination of dead and damaged skin cells and the renewal of healthy cells.

The biological active is homogenized, and incorporated in the balm in a precise concentration.

GLYCOBALM^™

• delivers precise amounts of the bioactive compound past the surface barrier of the skin and down to the target cells

• provides a constant supply of the biological active ingredient to the target cells for 12 hours following a single application.

When used twice daily, GLYCOBALM guarantees that damaged skin cells are constantly exposed to the bioactive elements that accelerate the skin healing process.

GLYCOBALM^™ has been formulated to transform a liquid with cell-communicating ingredients and biological activators of skin renewal into a balm that also moisturizes, replenishes and stabilizes the lipid content within the intercellular skin matrix by using all natural emollients, emulsifiers, surfactants and nourishing extracts derived from Olive Oil, hydrating Hyaluronic acid, and humectant Glycerin.

The Olive Oil derivatives are: emulsifier Peg-4 Olivate, surfactant Sorbitan Olivate, and moisturizing Squalene.

Squalene is not only a natural moisturizer but is also a natural component of the skin and is considered a good emollient that has antioxidant and immune-stimulating properties. It helps dry skin look and feel better.

Hyaluronic acid as pure and Glycoconjugatesd as we use it, is a glycosaminoglycan present in the intercellular matrix of skin where it has a protective, structure stabilizing and shock-absorbing role.

Hyaluronic Acid is naturally found in the joints, the deeper layers of skin, the umbilical cord and in foetal skin.

Medical grade Hyaluronic Acid is currently employed to reduce the incidence of post-operative adhesions, as a viscoelastic agent in intra-ocular surgery, also as a synovial replacement fluid; and is used to facilitate the healing and regeneration of surgical wounds.

The unique properties of Hyaluronic Acid make it the ideal moisturizer. Hyaluronic Acid plays an important role in tissue hydration, lubrication and cellular function, and is able to hold more water than any other natural complex. Its unmatched hydrating properties result in increased smoothness, softening and decreased wrinkles.

Hyaluronic Acid has also shown excellent results in the reduction of dryness, itching and burning of the skin. It offers a perfect environment for the growth of new cells and healing following skin peeling.

Hyaluronic Acid is a major constituent of the extra-cellular matrix that surrounds rapidly dividing cells. It has been shown to be an integral component in the rapid and scar-less wound healing observed in foetal and neonatal organisms. In addition to this, the cellular actions precipitated by Hyaluronic Acid are integral to the seemingly magical biochemistry of foetal development.

It is well documented that foetal tissues contain large amounts of Hyaluronic Acid and that decreasing Hyaluronic Acid content correlates with aging and wrinkling. Therefore any practical attempts to prolong and recapture youth by revitalizing damaged tissue should include this molecule.

GLYCOBALM contains glycerin which is a humectant. This means it has the ability to draw water right from the air bringing it closer to your skin and promotes the retention of water. It helps improve the skin’s defenses by filling in the intercellular matrix and attracts just the right amount of water to maintain the skin's homeostasis whilst helping the other skin lipids perform better.

The result is a product that contains ingredients that mimic the intercellular structure of skin and are essential for helping skin function normally. Intercellular complexs are those ingredients that exist naturally in the skin and work to hold the skin cells together. A dry environment, sun damage, irritation, inflammation, and age can all greatly reduce the presence of these complexs in skin. Combining intercellular complexs and biological activators of skin renewal with a moisturizer helps keep the layers of skin whole, resilient, and in good physical condition by providing the materials the skin needs to defend itself against the environment.

Also the preservative system we use to protect the balm from bacteria, yeasts and moulds, is a self sterilizing skin-friendly pH-stable system that combines a widely used, globally-accepted preservative (including Japan), phenoxyethanol, with a proven preservative-enhancer, ethylhexylglycerin, instead of the parabens that are still used in acne, scar and skin care products despite the controversial side effects they yield.

Phenoxyethanol is considered one of the least irritating cosmetic preservatives with none of the controversial side effects of parabens. It provides a broad spectrum of anti-microbial activity against both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, as well as yeasts and moulds. It is soluble and its activity is effective for our protein-based product.

Ethylhexylglycerin reduces interfacial tension on the cell walls of micro-organisms, promoting their more rapid destruction and a broader spectrum activity.

Apply GLYCOBALM™ twice a day on clean skin and get rid of damaged skin cells, scars, acne and blemishes and accelerate healthy skin renewal and the skin healing process.

GLYCOBALM for Acne Treatment
A gentle yet powerful solution for acne breakouts and even stubborn acne cysts that have not been amenable to other treatments

This acne cream yields what no other natural acne product does for recurrent stubborn acne and acne cysts because of the synergistic benefit of combining our biological serum with the most potent botanicals:

a) Inca Inchi Oil the richest vegetable oil in Omega-3 fatty acids. A powerful anti-inflammatory and with the ability to correct the deficit of linoleic acid in hair follicles which is a trigger of immoderate inflammatory reactions from our immune system. The oil is also a factor that reduces sebum output;

b) Helix Aspersa Müller Glycoconjugates, the miraculous serum, from a living creature with skin similar to human skin who never suffers from skin infections and acts as an effective adaptogen, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, trigger of skin repair and skin regeneration, and enzyme dissolver of blocked pores;

c) Licorice Root Extract (*) an antimicrobial with potent activity against acne bacteria, anti-inflammatory, anti-irritant, antioxidant, and an inhibitor of sebum production;

d) Alpine Willow herb extract (Epilobium Fleischeri) a botanical source of keratolytic salicylic acid in a natural form, and an antimicrobial;

e) Essential oil from the roots of Coleus Forskohlii with strong antimicrobial activity and a strong medicinal smell that you might not appreciate for about 20 minutes until it fades away.

The smell is a small price you pay for an "essential" component of BIOSKINFORTE for it activates many of your more than 10 million olfactory receptor neurones. But its nothing = "nada" when compared to the value you get: the strongest remedy that effectively heals and contains acne breakouts without any side effects on your body or skin. You always have the choice to behave as if you were a warrior and just use the product without previously messing with your nose inside the jar.

f) Hyaluronic Acid a glycosaminoglycan (also present in the snail serum) that deeply moisturizes the skin and restores the capacity of the skin to hold in water;

g) An extract from the fruit of black pepper which enhances the penetration of the active ingredients.

Apply a little of this acne cream twice a day on all the area affected by acne cysts or stubborn pimples (whole face, chest or back).

Made in the USA. One Month Supply 50 grams = 1.76 oz

Abstract: Licochalcone-A, Polyol Soluble Licorice Extract P-U (now in the market as Licochalcone LR-15), prepared from the roots of Glycyrrhiza Inflata Batalin shows several activities such as inhibitory actions of testosterone 5 ALPHA-reductase, lipase and phospholipase A2, as well as androgen receptor antagonist, antimicrobial and SOD-like antioxidant actions, which relate to skin care, especially the suppression of acne formation and development. On basis of this evidence, a trial with acne patients was carried out and the efficacy of the extract was demonstrated clinically.
