If you are ever stranded on a desert island coconuts become your best friend, provided you can open them. Coconut water is rich in nutrients. It is the important source of nutrients in the human diet as it can be abundant in proteins, amino acids, vitamins and minerals, growth hormone and sugars all of which assist in hydration and growth of cells.

Coconut water could also be used in sports drink as it contains a number of important electrolytes including potassium, sodium, chloride and magnesium as well as sugars. It has a very similar level of electrolyte balance to the human blood stream.

Coconut water solids support cellular growth. It can be utilized in compounds which aim to support or increase the growth of human tissues, for example hair follicles.

Cococin™ is prepared by freeze-drying the coconut water solids. The resultant powder can be blended into dry products, and it also easily dissolves in water. Cococin™ is also used in topical preparations for skin care in order to assist with healthy cell growth; used in revitalizing compounds designed to care for hair, nails and skin. It is also said to support good blood circulation.

Cococin™ was found to be safe for topical use and does not irritate the skin. Therefore, a perfect anti-age ingredient for sensitive skin.

A proprietary process preserves the inherent goodness of coconut water in convenient powder form, for use in personal care products. Ask your Sales or Account Executive how Cococin™ can support hydration and healthy cell growth in your skin care line.

Is your skin (not you) looking a little run down, haggard, dull and tired? Well, it’s definitely not time to give up… It’s Zyme to Peel!

 A few of us have been around the block a few times. Therefore, it is no secret that as we age we need to encourage our skin cells to regenerate, since the natural process of regenerating new skin cells becomes sluggish… ironically around the time when our bodies become more sluggish. It is not to say that our skin does not look dull in our 20′s, but odds are the regenerating process does not need as much coaxing as it does as in our 40′s. However, the time to use It’s Zyme to Peel is always close at hand.

As you can see by the Active Interests, It’s Zyme to Peel is not your typical enzyme peel. It is packed full of six (6) natural, potent enzymes. However, even with the plethora of enzymes, the pH is still above 3.0. Therefore, It’s Zyme to Peel is the ideal solution for all skin types, including sensitive skins.

 The six (6) enzymes work harmoniously together to gently hold onto and remove dead cells, while helping to hydrolysis proteins into peptides and amino acids… improving skin health. Why is improving skin health important, besides brightening and softening the skin? As skin health improves, so will the foundation to receive an abundance of anti-aging and mechanism actives… defending the skin against environmental and age stressors long term, in addition to firming and reducing fine lines short term.

All in all, It’s Zyme to Peel has a ‘gang mentality’ against the inevitable signs of aging and we all agree, no matter your age… the Zyme is now to fight!

Active Interests: 

• Pomegranate Enzyme (Lactobacillus/Punica Granatum Fruit Ferment Extract) – Fruit enzyme used for exfoliation with added benefits found in pomegranate 
• Pumpkin Enzyme (Lactobacillus/Pumpkin Ferment Extract) – Fruit enzyme used for exfoliation, smoothing fine lines, softening 
• Ficin – Proteolytic enzyme isolated from figs, catalyzes the hydrolysis of proteins including keratin proteins, helping aid exfoliation 
• Bromelain – Proteolytic enzyme isolated from pineapple stem, hydrolyses proteins into peptides and amino acids 
• Papain – Enzyme derived from papayas, digests keratin proteins to help accelerate exfoliation, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, rich in vitamin C, E and beta-carotene 
• Protease – Enzyme used to digest proteins, such as keratin, to provide exfoliation benefits, improved skin texture, wound healing
• Astaxanthin – Carotenoid pigment, potent antioxidant protecting against lipid peroxidation and oxidative damage, anti-inflammatory, protection against UVA and UVB light-induced oxidative stress

Directions: Apply thin, even layer to clean skin.  Leave on for 5-20 minutes.  Rinse well.

Please call your Sales or Account Executive today with this item number VLT0.3011!

Customer Service is a term that we are all familiar with, but you rarely experience with a manufacturer. To CoValence, a lack of customer service with manufacturers is a tragedy for the brands trying to succeed in an extremely competitive market. What is your manufacturer doing to help you?

According to Peter Drucker the single most important thing to remember about any enterprise is that there are no results inside its walls. The result of a business is a satisfied customer.  At CoValence we highly agree with Mr. Drucker — We work closely with our clients to make sure their every need is met and exceeded.

CoValence’s Customer Service Team consists of our Receptionist, Regulatory Department, Sales, Marketing and Account Executives. Each team member goes through trainings focused on helping our clients. At first, we thought that all manufacturers spent the time to take care of their clients, however within the last year, speaking with new clients, we have realized that CoValence is an anomaly and, actually, we are proud of our uniqueness!

Thankfully, our company’s growth has been steady and strong, during the global economic crises and era of layoffs. Therefore, we have actually hired some wonderful new additions to our Customer Service team to make our clients’ relationship with us even more positive than before.

We enjoy working with you and we hope to continue to be of service to you as you continue to succeed locally and worldwide!

With highest devotion,

Melinda, Cheria, Susan, Kim, Karla, Pam, Julie Ann, Heather, Anna, Ashley, John W. and John S.

Bryan Barron and Paula Begoun recently fired back at the Environmental Working Group (EWG) for its unsubstantiated claims that Vitamin A in sunscreens can cause cancer. Take a look at what was said and know your facts – about all ingredients!

http://www.beautybunch.com/2010/05/26/cancer-from-vitamin-a-in-your-sunscreen/ 

Even if you do not read the blog, there is one statistic noted that is of vital importance…only 10% of the population uses sunscreen on a regular basis. 10%! That’s 90% short of our goal… Please spread the word that sunscreen needs to be worn by everyone!
