Back in the 1990s, thin eyebrows were in. Things change quickly, though. Today, thick, healthy-looking eyebrows are desired by both men and women. They help frame your face and make your eyes stand out. But what can you do if your eyebrows have thinned out over the years? While you can apply thick makeup to achieve the appearance of fuller eyebrows, it isn’t a foolproof method. Eyebrow makeup can come off if you sweat excessively or decide to go swimming.
Fortunately, there’s an effective, long-lasting way to grow your own eyebrow hair instead of filling your eyebrows in with pencils and powders. Recent biotechnology breakthroughs reveal that certain ingredients have the ability to help eyebrows grow in thicker and healthier. Here are eight effective ingredients contained in our SPECTRAL.BROW serum that can help you achieve fuller eyebrows.
1. Nanoxidil®
Nanoxidil® is a breakthrough hair loss ingredient that stimulates hair growth. It works by opening up ion channels within hair cells. As it does so, it activates cellular mechanisms that help prevent the triggers that lead to hair loss. It is highly effective and has frequently been compared to Minoxidil, though Nanoxidil® has none of the side effects associated with Minoxidil.
When compared side-by-side to Minoxidil, the Nanoxidil® molecule has a larger weight. For this reason, it is more easily absorbed by the skin than Minoxidil. Another key difference between the two popular hair-growth components is that Nanoxidil® can be used to treat various areas of hair loss (including eyebrows), while Minoxidil is only meant to be used on the vertex area of the head.
2. Retinol
Retinol is also known as Vitamin A1 and is commonly found in dietary supplements and natural foods. It plays an important role in brightening skin, fading age spots and regulating oil production in the skin. It can also boost hair growth if used topically in recommended amounts.
Studies show that retinoids may help improve the status of regressing hair follicles and slow down hair loss. Retinol may also prolong the anagen phase of the hair cycle and increase the rate of hair growth. It may be especially effective at stimulating hair growth when combined with Nanoxidil®. Fortunately, both ingredients are contained in our SPECTRAL.BROW serum and can help you achieve optimum eyebrow growth results.
3. Lysophophatidic Acid
Lysophophatidic acid is a bioactive phospholipid that is also known as P2RY5, LPA6 and GPR87. It is found in all cells within the human body and plays a critical role in how the hair shaft develops. Research reveals that lysophophatidic acid possesses growth-hormonal effects on certain cells, including hair cells. When applied topically to the eyebrows, it can spur the growth of hair follicles and thus improve eyebrow fullness.
Our eyebrow serum contains the optimal amount of lysophophatidic acid. After using our product on your eyebrows for a few weeks, you should start to feel and see the effects.
4. Adenosine
Adenosine is an organic compound found in human cells. It is one of the most powerful molecules in the human body and facilitates many different bodily processes. It comes in three main forms: adenosine, adenosine triphosphate, and adenosine monophosphate.
Studies show that adenosine has similar hair growth capabilities as Minoxidil and Nanoxidil®. It is thought that adenosine is so effective at promoting healthy hair because it increases blood flow to the hair follicles and stimulates their growth. One study showed that using products with adenosine for just 12 months led to the improvement of hair condition in over 80% of cases. This powerful ingredient is one of the key components of our SPECTRAL.BROW serum.
5. Copper Peptides
Copper peptides are complexes that serve as antioxidants. They are composed of three amino acids and copper. They promote the production of elastin and collagen and are found naturally in trace amounts in the human body. Copper peptides are very good for the skin and can be found in a variety of skincare products. It turns out they are also desirable for hair growth, which is why they are included in our eyebrow serum product.
When applied directly to areas of hair loss, copper peptides have been shown to stimulate hair growth and strengthen the existing hair. As you age, you’re more susceptible to hair loss on your head, eyebrows, etc. By applying copper peptides to the areas affected by hair loss, you will begin to see regrowth of thicker, healthier-looking hair.
6. Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic acid is a gooey, clear substance that your body naturally produces. Its primary function is to keep your tissues lubricated. It helps keep the scalp and skin from drying out and promotes thick, moisturized hair. Unfortunately, your body produces less hyaluronic acid as it ages. That’s why mature skin is more prone to wrinkles and hair loss.
Fortunately, you can replenish your body’s levels of hyaluronic acid by applying it topically. There are plenty of skincare products that contain this important substance, but they aren’t specifically intended to promote eyebrow growth. That’s why we created SPECTRAL.BROW serum, which is formulated with key ingredients—including hyaluronic acid—that can help you achieve healthy, full eyebrows.
7. Azelaic Acid
Azelaic acid naturally occurs in grains such as rye, wheat and barley. It has both anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, which make it a great choice for skin care. Since healthy skin is essential for healthy eyebrow growth, azelaic acid shows great promise for helping you achieve your ideal eyebrows.
One way azelaic acid works is by inhibiting the enzyme 5a-reductase, which is an enzyme linked to hair loss. Azelaic acid is most effective when combined with a hair growth stimulant, such as Nanoxidil®. These two components are very effective at blocking hair loss while simultaneously stimulating growth of thicker hair.
8. Piroctone Olamine
Piroctone olamine is a compound that has anti-fungal properties and is commonly used to treat dandruff. It also has the ability to decrease hair loss while promoting hair regrowth. It is thought that piroctone olamine facilitates hair growth by stopping the oxidation of sebum inside the hair follicle. Since sebum is necessary for strong, healthy hair, preventing it from oxidizing is essential for optimal hair growth.
The nice thing about applying a product with piroctone olamine to your eyebrows is that it will help improve the quality of your skin as well as the quality of your hair. So if you’re prone to dry skin in and around your eyebrows, piroctone olamine will help.
