Details


Our skin is under constant attack from environmental factors and as we age the protective systems of our body become overworked and begin to break down. Fight back with VitaShield OPC-3 Triple Serum to help maintain youthful, radiant-looking skin. Specially formulated with sodium hyaluronate and yeast-beta glucan, this antioxidant packed serum effectively moisturizes and soothes the skin, while combating environmental stresses that age the skin.

This revolutionary formula utilizes a unique delivery system called Lipoplex™ which relies on carriers known as liposomes that are large enough to carry the active ingredients, yet small enough to penetrate the epidermal and dermal layers of the skin. LipoplexTM delivers these ingredients using a prolonged and controlled time release for maximum absorption and benefit. More importantly, it extends product efficacy while reducing skin irritation.

Potent vitamin C is not mixed into the serum until time of application, which helps to retain its integrity and efficacy. This maximizes its ability to protect against free radical damage, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and brighten the complexion for optimal skin health.

Benefits


  • Protects against the effects of free radicals 
  • Provides strong antioxidant protection
  • Helps maintain youthful-looking skin
  • Helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles
  • Promotes skin elasticity and firmness
  • Refines skin tone for a smoother, more radiant complexion
  • Moisturizes for softer, more supple skin

Ingredients


Sodium Hyaluronate

A vital moisturizer and lubricant found naturally in our skin. It provides superior, long-term moisturization, helping to keep the skin hydrated and supple.

 

Yeast Beta-Glucan

Beta-glucan extracts are well known for the soothing, antioxidant and moisturizing properties. These properties may help hydrate the skin, protect the skin from environmental stresses and keep the skin looking smooth and soft.

 

Vitamin C

One of the most abundant antioxidants found in human skin, where it plays an important role in protecting the skin from oxidative free radicals and supporting healthy skin proteins like collagen and elastin. Topical application of Vitamin C can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, help the skin feel firmer and more supple, and provide a smoother, brighter-looking complexion.

FAQ


What is the purpose of the VitaShield OPC-3 Triple Serum?

VitaShield OPC-3 Triple Serum is an advanced antioxidant shield that helps protect the skin from free radicals. Its LipoplexTM delivery system allows the beneficial ingredients to penetrate the dermis where they provide maximum protection and benefit.

 

Why isn't the vitamin C mixed with the other ingredients when it is manufactured?

Vitamin C is very unstable and begins to oxidize shortly after it comes into contact with the aqueous solution. If the vitamin C was mixed with the other ingredients during manufacturing, by the time the customer received it the oxidation process would have eliminated all its benefits.

 

How much vitamin C is in the VitaShield OPC-3 Triple Serum?

Each capsule contains approximately 210 mg of 100% pure vitamin C. This equates to 3% of the total formula.

 

How do I use VitaShield OPC-3 Triple Serum?

To ensure proper application follow the steps below:

  1. Place vial on a hard surface (not on glass) or hold firmly in your hand. Press down firmly on the activator cap (the white piston valve on top of vial) to release the vitamin C into the vial. The piston can also be pushed down using the thumb.

 

Note: The piston should be depressed completely.

  1. Tap the top of the vial to assure that all of the vitamin C has dispersed into the vial.
  2. Shake the vial vigorously for about one minute to mix the vitamin C with the emulsion.
  3. Remove the inner plastic cap.
  4. Replace the inner cap with the white applicator tip.
  5. Using the flexible tip of the white applicator cap, squeeze a few drops onto your fingers. Massage into skin on face and neck until completely absorbed. Avoid the area around the eyes to ensure there is no irritation.

 

When do you recommend using VitaShield OPC-3 Triple Serum?

VitaShield OPC-3 Triple Serum should be applied in the morning after cleansing and toning. Apply several drops to your fingertips and spread over facial area. Follow with VitaShield Vitamin C & E Moisturizer. For best results use VitaShield OPC-3 Triple Serum every day. On days where you have prolonged exposure to the sun, use morning and evening.

 

Why must I use this product within 10-12 days after it has been activated?

Vitamin C remains fully active for about 12 days after it comes into contact with an aqueous solution. VitaShield OPC-3 Triple Serum is in an emulsion which contains water.  Each vial contains sufficient product to last 10-12 days. For best results you should use this product every day for maximum free radical protection.

 

Aside from the free radical protection provided by VitaShield OPC-3 Triple Serum, what other benefits are there in using this product?

VitaShield OPC-3 Triple Serum provides other significant benefits in addition to the free radical protection from its state of the art antioxidant ingredients. A beta-glucan extract helps support normal activity of the Langerhans cells which exist in the upper layer of skin. Langerhans cells are responsible for supporting the skin’s natural immune function, which helps promote a smooth, radiant-looking complexion.

 

Is VitaShield OPC-3 Triple Serum tested on animals?

Market America does not conduct or commission animal testing of any finished product.

One of the best products I have ever used!

i started using OPC Triple Serum when it first became available many, many years ago. I have loved what it does for my skin since the beginning! Over the years on occasion I have experimented with discontinuing use and trying something new to see if there was any difference. There always was and I went right back to using OPC Triple Serum! I am approaching 70 years of age and have no wrinkles to speak of whatsoever. No crow's feet, the lines in my forehead are barely noticeable. I love it and will not stop using it ever again!

My Esthetician was excited about the changes

I had my monthly facial with dermafusion, and my esthetician was amazed when she looked at my skin under the lights! She asked what changed in my skin regimen. I told her I added this serum to my regimen. She stated my skin was glowing, it was hydrated, my pores were smaller, the fine lines had decreased and the hyperpigmentation wasn’t so hyper!
Whoohoo! Next step is introducing this product to her boss!
Wish me luck!!!
