RENUE™ - 2 Step Skin Rejuvenation Protocol 

 

What's the ideal pH for skin-care products?

You want to look for skin-care products with a pH of 5.5. If anything, they could be as low as 4.5 and as high as 7.  The general rule is slightly acidic is preferred for the best complexion.

What pH are Renue™ Products?

Renue™ NAD+ Skincare products are on the optimal 5.5 mark on the pH scale.

High pH (8 to 14)

Skin-care products with a high pH level (also known as alkaline) pose the biggest threat to your skin's pH and acid mantle. That tight, squeaky-clean feeling you might experience after washing your face is the truest sign of cleansers with a high pH and damaged skin barrier. They, as well as other alkaline skin-care products, tend to strip away sebum and natural oils.

Low pH (1 to 6)

Because products with a low pH are at a level closer to skin's natural pH, they will more effectively work with your skin and help cell turnover gently. They're more likely to keep skin bright and smooth, instead of flaky and angry.

However, certain products can be too low of a pH for skin and irritate it. At-home peels and other acid-spiked products tend to have a lower pH level, making them great exfoliants but just as stripping as products with a high pH.

Resveratrol

“The Longevity Molecule"

Resveratrol is a stilbenoid polyphenol synthesized by plants in response to stressful stimuli and is protective in aging. 9, 10, 6

Its broad-spectrum properties (antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-aging) make it a potent bioactive for dermatological application by limiting the effects of cellular aging. 11

Its antioxidant activity (95%) is higher than vitamin E (65%) and C (37%) and has been shown to be active in neutralizing and inhibiting the formation of reactive oxygen species. 6, 12

Apocynin

The Skin Cell Tonic”

Apocynin, a natural vanilloid compound, has emerged as a bioactive phytochemical with potent anti-inflammatory properties for the skin. 13

A new paper published in Nature, found that declining levels of a collagen protein called COL17A1 (Collagen 17), cause our skin to develop wrinkles, sag and lose elasticity. 4

Apocynin was able to restore levels of Collagen 17 and repair damaged skin, leading scientists to believe it’s possible to reverse our skin’s timeline at the cellular level. 14

NAD+

"The Youth Molecule"

May Improve Rosacea

According to research Topical NAD+ has been shown to improve metabolism of skin cells. Its profound antioxidant properties can lessen inflammation that is associated with the damaging effects of free radicals.

May Improve Psoriasis

According to this study, it’s as effective as the leading pharmaceutical at treating psoriasis, and without side effects. NAD+ mitigates cellular damage and lessens inflammation, which leads to a visible improvement in the skin.

Research

NAD+ reduces oxidative cell damage

Oxidative stress and chronological aging can cause NAD+ breakdown in the skin. The NAD+ metabolic pathway has been implicated as a therapeutic target to promote cellular health. Recent studies have shown that enhancing NAD+ levels can reduce global oxidative cell damage, replenish total NAD+ stores and restore optimal skin cell function.

Oleic Acid enhances skin barrier permeability

Free fatty acids (FFAs), specifically monounsaturated FFAs such as oleic acid, may disrupt skin barrier and act as permeability enhancers for other compounds present in plant oils. David Sinclair recently stated that he is using Oleic Acid, which stimulates the longevity-linked protein Sirt1 and maintains skin health.

NAD+ research for skin rejuvenation

Skin aging is driven by both external and internal factors such as sun exposure (UV), stress, environmental toxins and the natural mechanisms of aging occurring in all cells and tissues. Tissues with a high cellular turnover, such as the skin, require higher doses of NAD+ to counteract daily genomic threats, activate sirtuin proteins, and to rejuvenate skin.

Apocynin stimulates growth of collagen in deepest layer of skin

Apocynin is the only known substance able to stimulate growth of the deepest layers of collagen (COL17A1) and repair damaged skin, leading scientists to say it may be possible to reverse our skin’s timeline at the cellular level. Apocynin is well known as a NADPH oxidase inhibitor and has powerful anti-inflammatory effects on the skin.

Renue Trial Participant's Results - Before and after Renue Serum

I LOVE these products!

"I've definitely noticed less redness and smoother skin around my eyes and forehead. I LOVE these products! They are the only ones I'd ever use going forward because I see actual results. Most creams and serums are overly expensive and truly don't do anything. I have spent so much money on luxury facial treatments in the past and now I will not be going back. I love the Renue skin care line.”

– Caitlin H

Acne cleared away

“Renue Transdermal Lotion with Liposomal NAD+ has helped my skin tremendously within the last month that I’ve started using it. I use it at night and my face feels soft and renewed every morning. I’ve struggled with acne and scars and have invested in many products without knowing what the ingredients inside do. I saw potential in Renue’s transdermal lotion because of its ingredients that were scientifically proven to work. Because I believed in the research and science behind the ingredients, I took a dive at this product. I am glad that I found it!”

– Jason H

Improvement in hair quality and growth

"I started using Renue Topical Lotion on my hair as well as my face and neck. I felt I saw some improvement. I see a more pronounced hairline when I look at myself in the mirror. It is my hope that perhaps the hair will darken so it becomes more visible.

Over the month I believe that the scalp condition has improved considerably, the sunspots have disappeared and I believe there has been some improvement in hair quality and growth.”

– William N

This is an amazing product!!!

"Check this out!!!  I've been using the day cream only on my left hand (the hand on the right in this pic) for only one week! 

The day cream has definitely faded some age spots!!!!  It also seems like it's taken some of the wrinkles away.  This is an amazing product!!!”

– Reba W

Every day these lines are less pronounced

“I have been using Renue for about a month now and I am really shocked at the results I am seeing. With the first application I was happy to see a kind of moisturizing effect that I was unfamiliar with. The effect didn’t feel superficial but rather restorative. I’ve tried renue on different parts of my body and it seems to work really well just about anywhere. There are really immediate changes you can see to the surface of your skin after the first few applications, but I’ve found that with a month or so behind me I’m seeing more and more drastic changes. I’m 40 years old and had the fine lines developing under my eyes and on my forehead. Every day these lines are less pronounced. The ones under my eyes have almost vanished. I can’t believe it. It is blowing my mind. Anyway, I wanted to thank the Alive by Science team for making such amazing products all round. I don’t think I’ve ever been more happy with the quality of product and service from a company ever!”

– Terry G

All I can say is WOW!!!

"I recently got this “Renew” skin care product two days ago and this stuff works! I already see a difference, a younger me in the mirror. I gave some to the girls at work as well and they are already seeing results as well. I’ve never had a skin product work immediately as Renue does! I was diagnosed with May Thurner’s syndrome 2 years ago which was found by a blood clot in my left lower leg. The damage from the clot discolored my left lower calve. I’ve been putting Renue on that area every day and have noticed the discolored area looking more normal. I have a couple of Keratosis spots on my face and I’ve been putting Renue on it twice per day. These spots are now almost non-existenet. I’m really amazed by this new skincare product and can’t recommend it enough. The beautiful thing is that I’m only getting started! ABN you guys rock!”

– Dr. Kris F

A massive step forward in the future of skin care

“I have been using it for over a week now on blemishes, scars, under my eyes and just on any marks that generally shouldn’t be on the body.  Again I will personally say… game changing results in the never ending regenerative tissue challenge that we all face as we age.. The first noted benefit was that the dark circles under the eyes virtually disappeared within the first couple of days and the puffiness at this early stage is reduced by at least fifty percent. Kudos to you AliveByNature for introducing the Skin Care Range into your expanding product line. For anyone out there that hasn’t tried Renue. Do yourself a big Favour and give it a go. A massive step forward in the future of skin care.”

– Colby R

The patients are amazed at the results

“Here is an update from the our patients that have been using the skin care line. We have seen fading of age spots, reduced appearance of wrinkles and a new glow to the skin. The patients are amazed at the results they have been getting and we are amazed every day at how well the products work. I have been using the products as well and have seen positive changes.”

Dr. David B

I know it is the best thing I have ever used

“This is an exciting product. I was so excited to try this as I have many solar keratosis on my forearms that never heal and nothing else works. I have noticed a marked difference in some of the stubborn damage that has reduced greatly, some even completely gone. This has never happened with anything else I have tried (I have tried many). I have also been using it on my face and now that I have run out I know it is the best thing I have ever used.I wake up feeling smooth and soft and the skin tone has started to even out in that short time. Keep it up. You guys Rock!

McD NZ

Noticed a tremendous difference

“I have been using this product for six weeks now, and have noticed a tremendous difference in the quality of my skin tone and pore size. I cannot imagine using any other product now.”

– Barcigua

This is truly a breakthrough product!

“Two days is pretty fast for it to start working but I’ve noticed improvements right away. Very noticeable difference in reduction of puffiness of veins on hands from reduced inflammation and improved overall skin texture. Fine lines on face have disappeared and larger wrinkles have diminished. This is truly a breakthrough product!”

– David G

No doubt it visually improves the complexion

“Well this lotion certainly absorbs quickly into the skin and feels great. I was surprised how such a slippery feeling lotion can get absorbed so quickly. I had a bug bite on my face, so it was a little inflamed and it was clearly visible… I must say it was invisible within an hour. It does feel good on the face. I have a couple bumps that look reduced. There is no doubt it visually improves the complexion – the results are noticeable within a few uses. I guess it drives NAD+ up in the dermis dramatically. It does also seem to even out the skin. A nice feeling.”

– Chris B

The fact is the result was smooth, even and not greasy

I received my first shipment of Renue a week ago. I ride my bike most days and sometimes my face gets dry and flakey. I have tried many moisturisers with only one or two showing limited success. On first application, this went on really smooth and did not react with my skin. This sounds like a cosmetic commercial but the fact is the result was smooth, even and not greasy.

– John K

Dramatic improvements to health

Since I’ve moved thru the 60-80 years of my life free of diseases that have killed all my friends and two brothers, I’ve decided to follow Dr. David Sinclair’s research by participating with my body and mind. During the past two years, starting with NMN capsules, then proceeding thru the new products offered, I started correcting body failures. The most dramatic improvements to my health have come from absorbing NAD+ thru my skin with RENUE. This allows complete delivery to my blood stream without ingestive loss though liver filtering.

– Ben Y

Trial

Our Renue™ Lotion was first introduced in May of 2019 and we've received great feedback on it. Our Renue™ Skincare line has since expanded and we are even more excited about the potential of our Renue™ Age Defying Serum for restoring and repairing skin that is ravaged by aging.

We decided to perform our own little trial, and sent out an email to our customer base asking for volunteers that would allow use to use their before and after images in exchange for free product to test. The first 100 people to reply were accepted and were shipped the first bottle of Renue™ Serum just before Thanksgiving 2020.

Renue Trial
Renue Serum Trial Results

We were pleased to find that after 30 days, all of the 100 subjects wanted to continue use, and gave us feedback on what they experienced. The overwhelming majority was extremely positive!

Of course these results are mostly subjective and not proof of anything, but we are very encouraged by them, and believe we will be getting a lot of good before/after images like the ones below.

Recent Renue™ Testimonial - Eczema Improvements

1/25/2021 (before photo)

I have suffered from severe eczema on my hands and feet for over 50 years. For years, my hands would itch so bad from deep under the skin that I would have to run extremely hot water over them to calm the itching. Consequently, afterwards, the cycle would repeat; apply cortisone and wear nitrile gloves to heal the inflamed hands which then led to dryness, cracking and bleeding. I have been using steroids by a Dermatologist to "manage" my eczema in addition to changing diet, etc.

I knew that using high percentage steroids for prolonged periods of time is not healthy which led me to research more natural remedies – some worked briefly – some were a waste of time and money. Eventually, my search let me to NAD+ by Alive by Science and I have to say that I am a very satisfied customer! The picture shows Red, swollen hands with bleeding, dry, cracked fingers and knuckles.

2/9/2021 (2 weeks later, after photo)

After applying NAD+ Renue serum and lotion every day for 2 weeks there was remarkable improvement in the condition of my hands. The pictures really do not tell the actual incredible story. From a comfort perspective, the redness is gone along with the swelling itching, dryness, scaling, cracking and inflammation. Aside from the natural age-related condition, my natural pigment has returned with zero evidence of Eczema – I mean no itching, scaling, bleeding, or dryness! Thank you, NAD+ serum and lotion!

Bill's 30 Day Results  - Sunspots Diminished

Here is an image we received recently from a Renue™ trial participant, Bill, who has been using the Renue™ Age Defying Serum in the morning and evening, 4 pumps each time, massaging it into the scalp.

There is a noticeable diminishment in his sunspots and scalp hyperpigmentation, as well as possible hair growth - and all in a span of one month!
 
Here you can read about Bill's experience, in his own words.

Background

I was using Renue Topical Lotion on my face and neck for about 2 months and noticed that my eyebrows had regrown and were actually darker. Due to my hypothyroid condition, my eyebrows had thinned out to a point where you could barely tell I had any. This discovery encourage me to allow my hair to grow back (until this time I was shaving my head). I started using Renue Topical Lotion on my hair as well as my face and neck. I felt I saw some improvement. I wanted to investigate further for products similar to the lotion so I went on the Alive by Science website and notice they were conducting a trial for the Renue Age Defying Serum. I immediately applied to be a part of the trial. I received the first shipment of product, Renue Age Defying Serum, on November 20, 2020.

Procedure

I use the product both morning and evening. I use 4 pumps each time, messaging the serum into the scalp. Photographs for November 20, 2020 Please note the sun damage at the crown of the head.

December 10, 2020 Photographs - note: sun damage continues to disappear. Although it is hard to tell I believe that I am seeing new hair growth.

Note: sun damage is gone. The scalp looks refreshed and I believe there was some hair growth although it is hard to tell in these photos. I see a more pronounced hairline when I look at myself in the mirror. It is my hope that perhaps the hair will darken so it becomes more visible.

Over the month I believe that the scalp condition has improved considerably, the sunspots have disappeared and I believe there has been some improvement in hair quality and growth. I received the second shipment of product on December 19, 2020. Along with the Renue Age Defying Serum, I received a canister of Renue Topical Lotion. I will continue the regime of twice a day application with the Renue Age Defying Serum and I will apply the Renue Topical lotion once a day in the mornings. I look forward to the next month with anticipation of more improvement with scalp conditioning and hair growth.

INGREDIENTS

Resveratrol

“The Longevity Molecule"

Resveratrol is a stilbenoid polyphenol synthesized by plants in response to stressful stimuli and is protective in aging. 9, 10, 6

Its broad-spectrum properties (antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-aging) make it a potent bioactive for dermatological application by limiting the effects of cellular aging. 11

Its antioxidant activity (95%) is higher than vitamin E (65%) and C (37%) and has been shown to be active in neutralizing and inhibiting the formation of reactive oxygen species. 6, 12

Apocynin

The Skin Cell Tonic”

Apocynin, a natural vanilloid compound, has emerged as a bioactive phytochemical with potent anti-inflammatory properties for the skin. 13

A new paper published in Nature, found that declining levels of a collagen protein called COL17A1 (Collagen 17), cause our skin to develop wrinkles, sag and lose elasticity. 4

Apocynin was able to restore levels of Collagen 17 and repair damaged skin, leading scientists to believe it’s possible to reverse our skin’s timeline at the cellular level. 14

NAD+

"The Youth Molecule"

May Improve Rosacea

According to research Topical NAD+ has been shown to improve metabolism of skin cells. Its profound antioxidant properties can lessen inflammation that is associated with the damaging effects of free radicals.

LIPOSOMES

Liposomal nanostructures loaded with active compounds drive their precious cargo directly into cells intact. The biomimetic structures are engineered to activate cellular renewal on the skin matrix, stimulate collagen proliferation and improve skin elasticity.

Dual Action Nanoliposomes

Renue is a multifunctional breakthrough in skin science, acting as a double agent to deliver transformative nutrients topically and deep through the harsh layers of strata.

The phytonutrient dense formula forms a breathable, protective shield on the surface layer to defend against daily environmental toxins and maintain lipids in the skin’s moisture barrier.

Liposomal nanostructures loaded with active compounds drive their precious cargo directly into cells intact. The biomimetic structures are engineered to activate cellular renewal on the skin matrix, stimulate collagen proliferation and improve skin elasticity.

Fluidizing Technology

Nanovesicles comprised of natural phosphatidylcholine and oleic acid were chosen to develop liposomes for fluidizing skin without the need of synthetic surfactants or harmful accelerants.

Renue’s fluidizing liposomes have humectant properties that liberate polyphenols previously impossible to isolate into bioavailable form.

This high fluidization temporarily disrupts the hydrolipid film allowing molecules to maintain their pro-oxidant neutralizing efficiency after penetration through the stratum corneum.

The innovative nanosuspension visibly strengthens, regenerates and empowers the skin to renew its life force.

Micro-Stability

Our multifunctional liposomes are enhanced with stabilizing advancements that prevent degradation and maximize therapeutic efficacy.

The multi-dimensional matrix of the cosmetic base provides enhanced stability at room temperature and improves the target specificity of thermosensitive molecules.

The 3D microemulsion is assembled without the use of synthetic surfactants in a heat-free, pressure-free environment with natural co-factors that provide mechanical stability.

Micro-stability helps rebuild the skin matrix and accelerate healthy cell turnover. This improvement of structural stability makes Renue™ more biocompatible over conventional lotions.

Transdermal Delivery

Transdermal delivery is a method of applying medications or active ingredients through the skin. It's convenient and can improve product delivery, absorption and effectiveness. The skin's protective barrier creates a challenge for transdermal delivery. As a result, liposomes can be used to carry ingredients past the skin's barrier. (Source)

Liposomes

Liposomes are an advanced delivery vehicle, protecting a much higher percentage of active ingredients from digestion, while slowly releasing the payload into the bloodstream.

  • liposomes improve permeation of products to the site where applied, for localized treatment (in the skin)
  • liposomes also offer systemic nutrient delivery (in the body)
  • liposomal topicals and transdermals can optimize cellular uptake and effectiveness

What Liposomes Are Made Of

A Liposome is made up of a spherical vesicle with the inner contents containing the active ingredients, which are protected by an outer layer comprised of tiny fat-like particles, called the Phospholipid Layer. Liposomes have the ability to carry ingredients that are hydrophobic ("water-fearing") and hydrophilic ("water-loving"). (Source)

Advantages to Transdermal Liposomal Delivery

  • superior stability of active ingredients
  • higher absorption and greater efficacy
  • may circumvent first-pass metabolism - meaning, more of the nutrients will reach your bloodstream
  • enhanced skin permeability, allowing more actives past the outer layer & deeper into the cells
  • the dose is slowly released so the supplement's concentration level can stay fairly constant in the body

Safety of Liposomal Delivery

Liposomes closely resemble the structure of cell membranes, and as a result the body recognizes them as safe and friendly substances (they are biocompatible). Liposome-formulated drugs are used routinely to treat a wide range of illnesses. Nutraceutical or nutritional liposomes can act as both a treatment as well as preventive care. The nutritional industry’s use of liposomes is expected to grow rapidly in the next 5–10 years. (Source, Source)

"Liposomes are valued for their biological and technological advantages, and are considered to be the most successful drug-carrier systems known to date." - International Journal of Nanomedicine, Liposomes As Nanomedical Devices

How Are they Absorbed?

Some liposomes work to deliver nutrients by diffusion, meaning the surface of the skin (stratum corneum) absorbs them, and then transfers the active ingredients directly from the liposomes to the skin.

In addition, lecithin in often used in liposome formulations and it increases the permeability of the skin's surface or barrier, enhancing transdermal delivery. (Source)

The inclusion of lipid vesicles into lotions can enhance their stability, prolong active product release, enhance transdermal permeability, and increase localization of the active within the skin. - Hydrogels and Their Combination with Liposomes, Niosomes, or Transfersomes for Dermal and Transdermal Drug Delivery

Advantages of Transdermal NAD+ on Aging Skin

Accelerated Skin Aging

Accelerated skin aging is common, and it's important to understand some of the causes, in order to address them. Daily exposure to solar radiation contributes to cellular dysfunction within the skin. This results in accelerated skin aging (photoaging), and disturbances to the normal hormeostatic state of the skin. *Homeostasis: This is the condition of optimal functioning within your skin.

Skin's Appearance & Evidence of Damage

Evidence of damage may appear in numerous ways. Chronological aging is characterized by thinning of the skin, which appears as dryness and wrinkles. UV-damaged skin has a thicker, leathery-like appearance with deeper wrinkles and pigmentation issues. (Source)

Cellular NAD+ pools are lower in aged skin. Mitochondria are one of the primary targets of damage from chronological and UV-induced skin aging. (Source, Source)

"Several studies have directly or indirectly linked mitochondrial dysfunction to both chronological and photo-aging of the skin." - Mitochondria in Skin Health, Aging, and Disease, Cell Death & Disease

Mitochondrial Dysfunction & Depletion of NAD+

An increase in oxidative stress contributes to the depletion of NAD+ and ATP (a molecule that carries energy within a cell). The damage contributes to mitochondrial dysfunction in both the short-term & long-term, creating a cumulative impact.

NAD+ Regulates Mitochondrial Maintenance

Mitochondrial maintenance through mitophagy (selectively eliminating the defective mitochondria) and mitochondrial biogenesis (synthesis and production of new mitochondria) is vital to cellular homeostasis and health. (Source)

NAD+ regulates mitochrondrial maintenance. In this study, when levels of NAD+ in old mice were raised, their mitochondrial function was restored to that of young mice. (Source)

"NAD+ and its primary precursor nicotinamide have been known for some time to impact skin homeostasis based on linkages to dietary requirements, treatment of various inflammatory conditions, photoaging, and prevention of cancer." - The evolving role of the NAD+/nicotinamide metabolome in skin homeostasis, cellular bioenergetics, and aging

Increasing NAD+ Levels in the Skin

Delivery of NAD+ through transdermal liposomal serums and lotions, is an optimal way to safely raise levels of NAD+ in the skin. In dermal fibroblasts (cells within the dermis), nicotinamide protects against oxidative stress, glycolisis, oxidative phosphorylation and increases mitochondrial efficiency. (Source)

Low NAD+ levels are common in aging skin, and directly contribute to impairement in mitochondrial function and ATP production. Numerous factors contribute to the impaired hormeostatic state of the skin and numerous methods can be used to treat it.

Targeted nutrient therapy with NAD+ and other active ingredients, delivered through transdermal liposomal skincare formulations, is one way to address numerous skin-aging issues. Raising NAD+ levels can create a positive cascading effect on numerous processes.

"Bioactive compounds targeting the mitochondria have proved effective against age-related as well as UV-induced skin damage, in addition to different skin diseases with mitochondrial involvement." - The evolving role of the NAD+/nicotinamide metabolome in skin homeostasis, cellular bioenergetics, and aging

Renue works at the cellular level

The Renue™ skincare line offers an advanced skin treatment system.

The delivery method is vital when it comes to skincare and supplements. What sets this skincare line apart, in addition to the potent ingredients and scientifically advanced formulation, is its superior mode of delivery.

Liposomes safely carry the active ingredients, which include a NAD+ Complex (NAD+, NMN & NR), Resveratrol and Apocynin, past the outer skin barrier and deep into your cells. The formulation allows for these potent ingredients to reach the target site before releasing them to offer a targeted skin treatment. Learn More.

History of Liposomal Delivery

Liposomes were first discovered in 1965 and soon after were proposed as drug delivery systems. For the last five decades, advancements in this field have led to numerous clinical trials on liposomes for delivery of anti-cancer, anti-fungal, antibiotic drugs, delivery of gene medicines, anesthetics and anti-inflammatory medications. This is an established technology, with a variety of types of liposomes being brought to market. (Source)
