What is it?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Aviqua<\/strong> is a skin care product that claims to be used for reducing wrinkles, increasing moisture levels, and making the skin appear younger and healthier.<\/p>\n

Their advertising says that it can increase collagen levels, which helps generate new skin and repair old and damaged tissues. They recommend their product to people that are looking for a daily moisturizer and skin care product, as well as those trying to reduce redness and fight conditions like eczema and psoriasis.<\/p>\n

Our team believes that Kremotex<\/a> is the single most effective skin cream to reach the market. It has been tested by our panel of health and beauty experts, who ranked it above all other moisturization, daily care, and color correction products currently available.

Aviqua<\/strong> Ingredients and Side Effects<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Strangely, Aviqua <\/strong>does not publish any of their ingredients. They are not listed on their home page, on any independent seller\u2019s websites, and there are no images of it posted anywhere on the internet. They do not even list one or two main ingredients \u2013 there is no mention in any of their materials about what any additive in their blend is except for vague mentions of two elements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Collagen<\/strong><\/td>\nAntioxidants<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Collagen: <\/strong>The fundamental building block of the skin, as well as the bones, joints, and other tissue. Collagen is a complex combination of vitamins, protein chains, and amino acids that combine at various densities to create up to 30% of the body\u2019s proteins.<\/p>\n

Aviqua\u2019s <\/strong>advertising mentions very briefly that it uses collagen \u2013 the most concrete mention of any single ingredient in their blend. Despite the fact that it is the only additive actually named, it is not generally considered a high-quality ingredient for a skin care product.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Collagen is used as a buzzword in the cosmetics community to sell products to customers that don\u2019t totally understand the body\u2019s dermal system but know that collagen is a big part of it. There has been a rise in popularity recently in collagen injections into the face and lips, which is a more efficient usage of the material, however it also comes with far more complications than topical or oral products. Bruising, infections, and nerve damage are all potential hazards of injectable collagen, and it has also been known to clot or clump.<\/p>\n

When applied topically, collagen is not as effective as many beauty companies would like consumers to think. Collagen is a thick, complex molecule that has a difficult time penetrating and being absorbed by the skin. The majority of a topical product\u2019s collagen is going to stay on the outer layer of the dermis where it may work as a general smoothing agent, however that benefit is purely cosmetic and will wash off in the next shower that person takes.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the elements of the collagen that are absorbed don\u2019t just become part of the skin \u2013 collagen is multi-facet protein structure that has to be broken down into its individual components before it can be used. Rubbing collagen on your face and expecting it to become part of your skin would be like rubbing someone else\u2019s hair on top of your head and expecting it to become part of your own hair.<\/p>\n

Collagen is not harmful to the body; there are generally no side effects or long-term health risks associated with its usage and it may end up having some mild general benefits. All of those proteins, vitamins, and amino acids that its made of can be put to use by the body somewhere, however they may or may not end up being specifically related to the skin.<\/p>\n

Antioxidants:<\/strong> This is as close to a mention of another ingredient as our research team could find after searching through all of the promotional materials for Aviqua<\/strong> that they could find, but it is far from specific.<\/p>\n

Antioxidants are what our body uses to fight the free radicals released by sun damage, environmental toxins, and other hazards. Free radicals destroy cell membranes, which in the skin leads to sagging, dull color, and rough texture. This makes ingredients that are high in antioxidants popular choices for inclusion in a skin care blend, however there are literally thousands of different products that contain some form of antioxidants.<\/p>\n

Green tea is very popular right now, as are extracts taken from fad superfruits like acai and goji berry. There are forms of algae and seaweed that some blends use, and others have developed their own synthesized chemicals in their labs. Saying that their product has antioxidants in it really does not tell the consumer anything about the actual makeup of the material, how effective it may be, or whether or not it is even safe for human consumption.<\/p>\n

Aviqua<\/strong> Quality of Ingredients<\/strong><\/h5>\n

\"\"<\/a>Our panel of skin care experts could not stress enough how unusual it is for a skin care product to not list any ingredients. Even the least reputable products will generally highlight a few of their more reputable additives while choosing not to advertise only their more questionable or hazardous ones.<\/p>\n

It is an unprecedented step for a company to try so deliberately to obscure from consumers everything that is in a product that people will be applying directly to their skin \u2013 and on their face, no less. The list of reasons this is an unacceptable business practice are long:<\/p>\n
