MitoVitan - cosmetics based on the SkQ1 antioxidant

MitoVitan (Russia) - innovative care cosmetics that interrupt aging at the intracellular level, developed by Russian scientists from Moscow State University. M.V. Lomonosov with the support of RUSNANO and SKOLKOVO. The main active ingredient is the antioxidant SkQ1 (Ions Skulacheva), developed by Academician Vladimir Petrovich Skulachev. Due to the unique ability to penetrate and accumulate in the mitochondria of cells, the protective antioxidant properties of the SkQ1 molecule are a thousand times higher than that of other antioxidants.

The main cause of skin aging is free radicals, which are produced in skin cells by mitochondria. Free radicals leave the mitochondria and are distributed throughout the cell, causing a lot of damage to the cell - and as a result: the cell self-destruction program is activated. So the skin loses cells, becomes thinner and decrepit. In the fight against skin aging, it is important to neutralize free radicals as early as possible, before they have yet had time to activate the cell's self-destruction program - while they are inside the mitochondria. This is exactly what the newest antioxidant SkQ1 does.

The SkQ1 molecule has a unique property - it purposefully penetrates into the mitochondria of cells, neutralizing free radicals inside the mitochondria, protecting skin cells from the damaging effects of free radicals and keeping cells healthy. In addition, the SkQ1 molecule is able to accumulate inside mitochondria and neutralize free radicals as they arise.

On the basis of the antioxidant SkQ1, cosmetic care products have been created:

  • Mitovitan serum - skin rejuvenation and hydration! Light texture, odorless, excellent multi-component composition for the best anti-aging effect and skin hydration!
  • Active and Active-Set are the SkQ1 concentrates for mixing with your favorite cosmetics,
  • Active+ is an enhanced concentrate of antioxidant SkQ1 (concentration and volume are 2 times higher than in Mitovitan-Active),
  • Exomitin is a regenerating hydrogel for the care of injured, problematic, damaged, inflamed skin
