Activated B2

Activated B2

Activated B2 is a unique mineral complex used in some of our natural soap and skincare products. This ingredient has several benefits for the skin and overall health. Keep reading to learn everything you need to know about Activated B2.

What Is Activated B2?

Activated B2 is a trademarked blend of the minerals zinc, copper and manganese that has been concentrated and microscopically reduced in size to make these minerals more bioavailable and readily absorbed by the body.

The minerals have been bonded with glycine, an amino acid proven to further enhance mineral absorption. By enhancing the absorption of these key trace minerals, Activated B2 can provide a wide array of healthy aging benefits.

Benefits of Activated B2

There are many excellent reasons to use soaps and skincare containing Activated B2:

1. Boosts Collagen Production

The trace minerals in Activated B2 support collagen formation in the skin. Collagen is crucial for maintaining youthful, supple and smooth-looking skin. The boosted collagen production can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

2. Evens Skin Tone

The minerals in Activated B2 can help balance melanin production which is responsible for skin pigmentation and discoloration. With regular use, you may notice a brighter, more even complexion.

3. Reduces Inflammation

Copper is well-studied for its anti-inflammatory effects in the body. Activated B2 provides a bioavailable form of copper to help calm inflammation that can lead to various skin issues like acne, redness and eczema.

4. Fights Free Radicals

Environmental factors like sunlight, pollution and stress cause the production of unstable free radicals that damage collagen and accelerate signs of ageing. The antioxidant minerals in Activated B2 neutralise these free radicals.

5. Boosts Immunity

Zinc is arguably the most important mineral for immune health as it is critical to the development of immune cells. Activated B2 delivers this essential trace mineral to fortify immune function.

Research on Activated B2

Multiple studies have demonstrated the wide-ranging benefits of the key ingredients in Activated B2 for skin health and immunity:

• Glycine: Shown to improve creatinine levels, antioxidant status and glutathione production which fights disease-causing inflammation. Also boosts absorption of zinc and copper.
• Zinc: Demonstrated in studies to reduce inflammation, fight bacterial infections, balance hormones and oil production as well as accelerate wound healing.
• Copper: Known to stimulate collagen and elastin production, calm inflammatory skin conditions, and provide antioxidant protection against free radicals.
• Manganese: Proven to speed up wound recovery, protect skin lipids from oxidation and help form connective tissues like collagen.

With the combined power of all these minimerals concentrated into our bioavailable Activated B2 blend, it’s easy to see why this ingredient is so beneficial for your skin and body!

Is Activated B2 Safe?

Yes, Activated B2 has an exceptional safety profile. The minerals occur naturally in the body and environment and the form used in our products has high bioavailability to ensure sufficient absorption in small doses.

Too much can still cause adverse reactions, which is why our expert chemists dilute the Activated B2 to the optimal effective and safe concentration. Rest assured our products have been rigorously tested to meet all government safety regulations.

Please consult your doctor if pregnant, breastfeeding or on any medications before trying new skincare products with Activated B2. Discontinue use if any irritation develops.

Who Should Use It?

Anyone focused on graceful, healthy ageing can benefit from using soap and skincare formulated with Activated B2.

It is especially helpful for those looking to:

• Boost natural collagen formation
• Achieve an even, glowing skin tone
• Minimise signs of ageing like wrinkles and sun spots
• Hydrate and smooth rough skin texture
• Soothe inflammatory skin conditions
• Strengthen immunity against illnesses

Men struggling with dry rough skin and women battling hormonal breakouts have also found great success with Activated B2 skincare.

How Do You Use Activated B2 Products?

It’s simple! Just use your Activated B2 soaps, lotions, creams etc as directed. Our skincare is designed for twice daily use for optimal results.

Apply creams after cleansing skin and allow them to fully absorb before using any other leave-on products. Use soaps when washing hands or showering as you normally would any body wash.

Be sure to patch test any new products before widespread use. Store products in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and extreme heat to preserve efficacy.

Consistency is key so aim to use your Activated B2 skincare morning and evening. Pair with oral supplements containing zinc, copper and manganese for amplified benefits.

Common FAQs about Activated B2:

Is it only good for mature skin?

Absolutely not! While Activated B2 is wonderful for anti-ageing, it also offers incredible benefits for young, teenage and problem-prone skin too. The minerals help balance hormones, fight breakouts, strengthen immunity against illnesses and more. It’s suitable for all skin types at any age.

When can I expect to see results?

Many notice an instant improvement in hydration, texture and overall appearance. However, the Collagen boosting and tone evening effects build over time. Allow at least 4 weeks of consistent use for the best long lasting transformations. Progress can continue to improve over 3-6 months.

Can it be used around the eyes?

Yes, Activated B2 is safe to apply around the delicate eye area. In fact it’s specifically great for combatting fine lines, crepey skin, dark circles and puffiness around the eyes as the thinnest skin shows ageing fastest. Pat a few drops of our Eye Elixir gently into the area morning and night.

Will it cause acne or breakouts?

Actives B2 has anti-inflammatory properties to improve common skin conditions like acne and eczema. By rebalancing oil production, exfoliating buildup and speeding cellular turnover, it often clears clogged pores.

However, everyone’s skin may respond differently. Cease use if any irritation develops. Purging where congestion surfaces at first is possible. Push through for clearer skin long term in most cases.

Can it be used while pregnant?

We recommend checking with your practitioner before using while pregnant or nursing. Minerals like zinc and copper are very important during pregnancy but dosage needs consideration on an individual basis to ensure safety. Many of our pregnant customers still use Activated B2 fine based on medical approval. See what your healthcare provider advises.

Is it okay for teenagers?

Yes the antioxidant protection, collagen boosting and inflammation reduction make Activated B2 ideal for teenage skincare regimens. However very young children under 10 years old should avoid use just to be safe as mineral absorption differs. Conservative use on children as young as 6 years old is generally fine though when supervised by parents.
