Implications: All that glitters is not gold...but some might be! Anti-oxidants are the promise of saving our "hides"!

Analysis: For the most part, the cosmeceuticals sold on the first floor of major department stores in the world sell images of the lovely skin on the packaging or the model on the poster, adding little more than an expensive moisturizer etc. to the buyer's beauty aids.
There is however, a new "organiceutical" which has science behind it and shows some promise to give idebenone (Prevage) a run for the money. It is RevaleSkin by Steiffel Inc, a venerated dermatologic company producing quality dermatologic prescription drugs for over 150 years. It is made from the coffee berry and preliminary studies show it to be more effective in squelching the free radicals than other antioxidants, thereby slowing down the ravages of the environment and sunlight on our skin and immune systems. It should be released early in June 2007.
