Excuse me? Say what? If you’re having trouble pronouncing this new-age ingredient, you’re not alone!
Bioxilift, pronounced ‘bi-oxi-lift’ (see not so hard when you break it down, right?), is an all-natural, anise plant extract that’s obtained by water extraction from the anise fruit.
Bioxilift is a source of oligopeptides* and is more often than not considered to be the natural alternative to Botox. Bioxilift has two main anti-ageing benefits – it actively stimulates the production of collagen in skin cells, and improves the cells’ ability to hold the collagen network together.
*Don’t know what an oligopeptide is? Well you’re about to find out!
Generally, peptides are small protein fragments. Oligopeptides consist of a specific number of these protein fragments and play a significant role in anti-ageing cosmetic products, acting as ‘messengers’ and essentially stimulating the production of collagen.
