Karen Behnke, a wellness entrepreneur, created Juice Beauty with the philosophical approach of developing beauty products from a wellness point of view. She believed that skincare should start first with an antioxidant and vitamin-rich organic botanical juice, rather than the unsafe PEGS/petroleum derivatives or the water that most skincare brands use as their base. Multiple clinical tests and clinical validation showed that Juice Beauty products are effective and safe.
Zinc has anti-inflammatory properties that help improve skin issues including acne, and it heightens the body's ability to promote wound healing [1-4].
JoJoba oil is commonly used for skin preparations including sunscreens as it slows down the skin aging process and reduces the incidence of skin infections [5]. Zinc oxide is frequently added to sunscreens as an inorganic physical sun blocker and a zinc-deficiency is associated with oxidative stress-induced aging due to free radicals and oxygen reactive species, which are skin-damaging particles that zinc targets [15, 16].
Helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil contains linoleic acid, oleic acid, stearic acid, palmitic acid, and vitamin E that helps create a protective barrier on the surface of the skin [7].
Shea butter is frequently used in skin care products and cosmetics due to its skin protecting properties [8, 9].
Jojobavitis vinifera (grape) seed oil and aloe barbadensis boost the body's natural would healing processes [10, 11].
Calendula officinalis flower extract demonstrates skin protection from UV radiation and it helps maintain skin pigmentation [12].
Camellia sinensis leaf extract contains antioxidants such as epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) which combat UV-induced DNA damage [14].
Skin health [1]; Protection from sun exposure [5]
Zinc improves the health through its ability to encourage detoxification and it has also been shown to boost wound healing due to its anti-inflammatory activity [1-4]. Zinc oxide is frequently added to sunscreens as it targets free radicals, thereby preventing them from damaging fibroblasts and lipids (fats) that play a role in protecting the skin from UV exposure or skin irritants (e.g., pollution) [12]. Zinc oxide is also linked to anti-aging due to its ability to protect collagen-producing fibroblast and lipids in the skin [13].
Zinc oxide creates a protective layer on the skin that blocks UV light and in doing so, it hinders UV rays from penetrating the skin. The structure of zinc oxide helps it mix easily with other topical agents and zinc does not absorb deeply into the skin [14], which reduces the occurrence of skin irritation and is one of the reasons why it is added to sunscreen for individuals with sensitive skin. These properties make zinc oxide a strong UV-blocking shield.
JoJoba oil is beneficial due to its anti-aging, wound healing, and anti-inflammatory activity, and it also helps enhance the absorption of other topical agents [5].;Helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil lessens the evaporation of the skin's natural moisture and heightens skin hydration by causing water to accumulate on the skin's surface [7].;Jojobavitis vinifera (grape) seed oil and aloe barbadensis have anti-inflammatory properties that help restore and maintain the skin barrier [10, 11].
