What are the Ingredients in our Natural Recipes?

QuintEssentials Skincare contains natural "fruit" acid exfoliants; that include the five most beneficial, scientifically proven, fruit acids (glycolic, malic, lactic, tartaric, citric) that you can use for skin care.

Alpha hydroxy acids are very familiar to all of us:

• Lactic acid is found in milk
• Citric acid is found in oranges and lemons.
• Malic Acid is found in apples.
• Tartaric acid is found in grapes and fermented fruits.
• Glycolic acid is extracted from sugar cane.

Many scientist and dermatologist have discovered that a mixture of certain natural ingredients help slow down the aging process of the skin.

QuintEssentials Skincare System is an example of how "all" alpha & beta hydroxy skin care products should work: In normal, healthy complexions, fresh, new skin cells are born at the bottom of the epidermis and travel to the skin's surface in about 2 1/2 weeks. As they travel, these "new" cells force the surfaced dead cells to flake off. The result is a smoother, healthier, younger looking complexion.

As we age, or if we have dry, acne prone or very oily skin, this process slows down and the dry, dull, dead cells form a tough outer crust. Fine lines deepen, skin tones become uneven, and in the case of acne and oily skin, the oils become trapped, causing pimples, blemishes and clogged pores!

The alpha-hydroxy family of acids, (glycolic, malic, citric, tartaric, and lactic) like those contained in QuintEssentials Skincare, help free the dying and dead cells by dissolving the sticky sebum that binds them. Glycolic acid, from the very heart of raw sugar cane, has the smallest molecule and penetrates deepest into the skin where it encourages a new growth of cells to come forward. Malic acid, (found abundantly in over 6000 varieties of apples) has a larger molecule structure. It does its' work by sitting just under the surface skin. There, aided by lactic acid and the larger molecules of tartaric and citric acids, it clears the way for the final exfoliation process. This process is accomplished by beta hydroxys (salicylic acid, willow bark). When the fresh, healthy cells surface, they improve the skins ability to retain moisture. THE RESULTS: A COMPLEXION THAT FEELS, ACTS AND LOOKS HEALTHY, SMOOTHER, YOUNGER!

Our product philosophy is very simple; we create high quality products using synergistic blends of premium, natural ingredients. Each formulation uses a unique blend of vitamins, antioxidants, nutrients and AHA's that interact and work together to deliver visible results. We believe these truly are the best natural recipes for skin care that provide results that are both healthy and beautiful.

Having no filler ingredients also means that a very little amount of product will go a very long way. With most of our products, you will need only a pea size amount for them to work effectively.

Our products are earth-friendly and cruelty-free. We do not test our products on animals. And, of course, QuintEssentials does not contain or use any animal products or animal by-products in our formulas.

Most importantly, our products are designed to be truly beneficial to your skin. They help repair and restore your skin to a state of optimum health, providing you with lasting results.

While the days are long past when ladies, out of necessity, made their own natural skin creams, soaps, shampoos and cosmetics, we still use those same natural fruits, oils, herbs, waxes, and healing agents derived from Mother Nature's garden of plants and minerals. That's why we refer to our natural recipes for skin care when formulating our skin care products. When you read our products ingredient list, you will find high quality, effective, natural ingredients, that you demand from the products you use.
