A miraculous anti-aging breakthrough, Garden of Wisdom'sApple Stem Cell Serum (PhytoStemCell) utilizes Phyto Stem Cells from Uttwiler Spätlauber. This rare Swiss apple regenerates and encourages stem cell growth in the skin and combats chronological aging while protecting human stem cells from stress. We add glycoproteins to aid cellular repair, boost the skin's oxygen content, and increase skin cells' energy levels. This product is a beautiful choice for those who want to address wrinkles, fine lines, and rough and dull, stressed skin.
PhytoStemCell Malus Domestica is a liposomal preparation of apple stem cells from Malus Domestica Fruit Cell Culture (Uttwiler Spätlauber). This rare Swiss apple was cultivated because of its known ability to have great longevity. This was shown to cross over to skin. It has been shown to protect skin stem cells and delay the senescence of hair follicles. PhytoStemCell Malus Domestica provides a revolutionary anti-aging performance for natural rejuvenation. A plant cell culture technology developed this ingredient. NOTE: This is a liquid delivered with a spritzer.
Method of Application Apply a few drops of this serum on your clean fingertips, and smooth it across clean skin. Spritizing your clean skin is an easier way to apply and this will sink in quickly. Use during the water soluble phase of your skin routine (after you cleanse, tone, and exfoliate, but before you apply any oils or creams).
Shelf Life and Storage Information for Products and Ingredients
Finished Products generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life.
Sample Sizes do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months) , and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (except for our Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please keep your products out of humidity, heat, direct light and in a dark cabinet when possible.
Exfoliating Acid products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.
Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark
Hydrosols - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it into a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier Oils - generally, you can refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take it out, warm it up at room temperature and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. ^There are some oils with a super long shelf life, like Coconut Cream and Jojoba Oil. Refrigeration is not necessary, but it surely won't hurt. Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare' butters. You can remove what you need and keep the rest in the fridge. Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years. Herbs - all herbs (whole or ground) should be kept in a dark, cool and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts - these are created using alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents from each herb—root, trunk, leaves, and flowers. Extracts have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be kept in the refrigerator (or a dark DRY place) Other Raw Ingredients - i.e., Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc. will all have a different shelf life.
