And you’ve probably been told to consume this or apply that to fight them in your body. But what are free radicals, exactly? Where do they come from? Why am I being warned against them? Good questions, but before we can answer them, you need to know a little bit about your world, your body and how you got here. LIFE IS A MIRACLE, BUT YOU ARE ...

RENOKIN HAIR RANGE FOR LUXURIOUS HAIR

Hair is an extension of skin and there exists many similarities between the management of hair and the management of skin. It is for this reason that Lamelle Research Laboratories has introduced a product range that encourages hair growth, stops hair loss and stimulates the skin ’ s ability to create new hair follicles. On average, people shed 50 to 100 hairs per day and an average scalp has about 100 000 hairs. Gradual thinning is a normal process of ageing however, hair loss may lead to baldness when the rate of shedding exceeds the rate of re-growth, when new hair is thinner than the hair shed or when hair is shed in patches. The Renokin Hair Revitalizing program contains three biomimetic peptides which inhibit hair loss, prevents stress induced hair cell death as well as activate the signal for hair growth. In addition, Renokin Hair Revitalizing program contains two vitamins which provides nutrition and enables increased blood flow to the scalp resulting on the formation of...

Lapelle Issue 6

Issue 6 of Lapelle is out , read it online  HERE  . Another issue full of great skincare tips!  Medical Director at lamelle research laboratories, Dr Bradley Wagemaker, answers a few FAQs around serums. 1. What is the difference between a moisturiser and a serum? While a moisturiser contains a whole host of ingredients to fulfill various functions in skin, a serum contains only that very specific active ingredient to produce only the particular results effectively. Thus, when  it comes to addressing specific conditions,  a moisturiser can never give you the dramatic results a serum can. http://youtu.be/QyjToaW2XfM 2. Where do serums fit into my regular skincare regimen? A serum can be seen as a boosting agent – used for a period of time when your skin needs some extra help, for example, after a holiday in the sun, when you might have some hyperpigmentation and dryness. http://youtu.be/bua9Uj2OA-A 3. How do I incorporate serums int...
