What Makes AminoGenesis AGE Control Anti-Glycation Serum Special
AminoGenesis AGE Control Anti-Glycation Serum is one of the very first products to combat glycation.
When you are consuming excess sugars, this causes the collagen in your skin to age faster. The products of this reaction accumulate faster and faster over time. It’s a process known as glycation.
Glycation make your skin less resilient and supple as you age, giving you skin that no longer “bounces back.” Glycation also results in skin appearing thinner and possibly sagging more as well, due to the damaged state of collagen.
AminoGenesis AGE Control Anti-Glycation Serum uses Albizia julibrissin, also known as Silk Tree or Mimosa of Constantinople, to fight glycation. A tree native to East Asia and South America, Albizia julibrissin has been reported in various reputable journals to have anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory properties (Biochemistry and Medicinal Letters) and has been suggested to help fight glycation in preventing it from occurring and detoxifying the products of glycation while it starts to occur (Carbohydrate Research, Glycoconjugate Journal).
Personal Use and Opinions
AminoGenesis AGE Control Anti-Glycation Serum has a lightweight texture. It is clear and glides across the skin. It absorbs fairly well for a silicone-based serum, and lays atop the skin smooth, without any lingering stickiness or tackiness. It does not have a scent.

AminoGenesis AGE Control Anti-Glycation Serum fights glycation, that process that occurs naturally over time and results in sagging, inelastic, paper-like skin. I’m a big fan of AminoGenesis AGE Control Anti-Glycation Serum, and recommend it highly.
