Oxylance is Lubrizol Life Science Beauty's newest botanical cosmetic ingredient. The new composition claimes to encourage glowing and healthy-looking skin, which is commonly attributed to post-yoga classes. Sustainably sourced from the high-altitude mountains of China where oxygen levels are low, Oxylance is extracted from Ligustrum lucidum.
The ingredient mimics the Tibetan genetic adaptation to low oxygen conditions. This results in an increased oxygen supply to the skin, thereby creating an overall improved complexion. This advanced botanical ingredient was studied in vivo and showed an increased level of oxygen to the skin, similar to after a yoga class. A clinical study also showed improved feelings of happiness following the use of the botanical ingredient.
