Chirally Correct Skin Care
What is Chirally?
All natural molecules and compounds exist in "chiral" form.
Chiral is a Greek word meaning "handed" and is used to imply that these natural substances have two mirror-image forms, one being left-handed - called levo or "L", and the other right-handed - known as dextro or "D" form.
Only one of these compounds , either levo or dextro, fits perfectly into skin cell receptors and so can be recognized and utilized by body. The other form has a negative effect, and is simply waste. Some say that the form not utilized by the body make contribute to free radical production and thus actually be harmful to the body.
Chirally correct products separate the two sides and utilize only the components of each ingredient which our body can utilize, and are maximally beneficial to the skin. This process is an expensive one and so very few companies choose Chirally correct ingredients.
Chirally correct products should be used sparingly. A chirally correct skin care product will be half the size of the same product that is not chiral. Thus you need to use half as much.
