The Science Behind Glimpse
BioActive X3 Complex has been shown in third party analysis and in-vitro studies to:
- 1. Calm the signs of inflammation.
2. Promote natural collagen production.
3. Protect the skin against the oxidizing effects of free radicals.
1. Calm the signs of inflammation
BioActive X3 Complex calms inflammation in skin.
BioActive X3 Complex causes significant reduction in IL-6 (interleukin-6), a type of inflammatory cytokine.

2. Promote natural collagen production
BioActive X3 Complex supports collagen production in the skin.
BioActive X3 Complex increases type I collagen when added to the human skin cells.

3. Protect the skin against the oxidizing effects of free radicals
BioActive X3 Complex offers protection from free radicals and environmental stressors.
BioActive X3 Complex demonstrates significantly higher antioxidant activities compared to green tea and other cosmetic ingredients.
- DPPH (2,2-Diphenyl-1-Picrylhydrazyl): A stable free radical ideal for antioxidant studies because it is prevalent and independent from sample polarity.
- SOD (superoxide dismutase): An enzyme produced in the body that provides antioxidant defense against superoxide. Superoxide is a natural byproduct of toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS). SOD protects the cells from superoxide toxicity through antioxidant activity.
