The Research

Human skin acts as a physical shield against any oxidative chemical and physical air pollutants, however prolonged and repetitive exposure leads to an increased production of free radicals. Free radicals are highly reactive molecules that inflict damage on healthy skin cells. Of the many types of free radicals, the greatest concern to our skin is known as Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), formed by the metabolism of oxygen in the cells’ mitochondria. Our skin requires antioxidants to help combat the effect of ROS on the skin. When there is an imbalance in the ratio of ROS to antioxidants, this leaves the skin in a state of oxidative stress leading to signs of skin aging including dullness, pigmentation, and inflammation.

Similarly, when there is excess glucose present in the bloodstream, this triggers a reaction causing sugar molecules to bind to collagen and elastin fibres, known as Glycation. The crystallisation of these molecules accelerates the degradation of collagen, resulting in the cross-linking of wrinkles. During this process, Advanced Glycation End-Products (AGEs) are produced, harmful compounds that also contribute to oxidative stress. A daily dose of antioxidants and Anti-Glycation actives helps to effectively preserve collagen in the skin and maintain a youthful appearance.

Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant famous for its ability to visibly even skin tone and most importantly, its inhibition of the Tyrosinase enzyme, reducing the excess production of melanin in the skin, leading to hyperpigmentation. It also increases cellular turnover in the epidermis, helping to break down clusters of pigment and even skin tone.

The Ritual

Follow with your RATIONALE Essential Six formulations for night.

The Research

The pH of the skin’s outermost layer, the Stratum Corneum, is vital to complexion health, vitality and beauty.

The ideal state of the Stratum Corneum is acidic, as these conditions maintain the upregulation of enzymes critical to the synthesis of collagen and elastin (skin connective tissues that provide skin structure and firmness), as well as helping to prevent collagen breakdown, sensitivity, breakouts and infection.

Throughout life, skin becomes more alkaline as a result of intrinsic ageing and environmental damage. This leads to an upregulation of enzymes that break down skin connective tissues, leading to premature ageing, wrinkles and sagging.

Recalibrating and maintaining the acidic pH of skin is possible via a nightly regime of topically applied hydroxy acids which help to reverse the effects of facial ageing and environmental damage.

RATIONALE #5 The Milk Concentrate

The Story

Profound clarity and radiance.

A gently nourishing milk concentrate that resets skin’s pH to a healthy balance while promoting skin calmness.

This formulation promotes skin refinement to fortify barrier function, amplifying moisture levels and enhancing skin resilience to radiant effect.

The Promise

Calms, clarifies and rejuvenates skin
Gently recalibrates skin pH to enhance ongoing clarity
Supports skin resilience
Skin feels hydrated, softer and more supple
A more radiant tone and texture is revealed

The Ritual

Smooth gently over face, neck, décolletage and backs of hands each evening.

Follow with your RATIONALE Essential Six formulations for night.

The Research

A vibrant, radiant complexion is intimately connected to the pH of the skin’s outermost layer, the Stratum Corneum.

Sensitivity, barrier breakdown, pigmentation and premature ageing are all consequences of environmental damage. These occur as a result of excessive solar exposure, causing the skin’s pH to shift from a healthy acidic state to alkaline, triggering the upregulation of enzymes that break down connective tissue and erode protective barrier structures.

Signalling peptides in human skin direct all metabolic processes, including desquamation (cell turnover), cellular differentiation (cellular function), and hydration. Short-chain protein sequences and ceramides are critical in these intercellular communication processes.

RATIONALE #2 The Serum

Matthew Burns — Thu, 09 Apr 2020 14:25:10 +0000

The Story

The perfect pairing of skin vitality with targeted environmental protection.

This potent serum fortifies skin against the appearance of oxidative stress while cultivating a healthy brilliance and even tone.

Skin appears more supple, firmer and uplifted.

The Promise

The Ritual

The Research

Human skin possesses a perfectly balanced network of antioxidant vitamins, minerals, enzymes and proteins that work in unison to prevent the formation of harmful, ageing free radicals and glycation products resulting from daily environmental exposure.

These same organic molecules are also the building blocks of healthy, glowing skin, boosting the synthesis of skin-firming collagen and elastin, while helping to control pigmentation and refine surface texture.

As we age, and as a result of sun and environmental damage, our natural levels of skin antioxidants are diminished, making topical supplementation essential.
