Our Products
Our Effulgere, VerVeris, and Vaha lines of skin rejuvenation
creams are designed primarily to revitalize and rejuvenate
facial skin to create a smoother and more youthful
appearance.
Our Effulgere and VerVeris lines of skin rejuvenation
creams are primarily sold through medical doctors, such as
plastic surgeons and dermatologists. VerVeris skin creams
are formulated to provide skin protection and revitalization
for men. Our Vaha line of skin creams is formulated to be
compatible with most skin types and is sold directly to
consumers through numerous channels of distribution.
Effulgere, VeerVeris, and Vaha skin creams can be used to
moisturize and rejuvenate skin that has been damaged by
exposure to the elements, sunlight, or which has simply
been affected by intrinsic aging. They can also be used to
slow the rate of photo-induced aging to maintain beautiful
skin tone and texture over the years. These products inhibit
the formation of wrinkles and in some cases reduce the
depth of existing wrinkles or eliminates them entirely. In
some cases, these skin creams also lightens age spots and
other types of blemishes associated with aging.
The effectiveness of all skin care products is contingent upon delivery
of the active ingredients through the stratum corneum and viable
dermis into the dermis layer of the skin structure. This is because the
active ingredients in the skin care product cannot be effective unless
they penetrate into the dermal layers of living skin cells. This is
normally a difficult proposition for water-soluble ingredients, such as
ascorbic acid, because the stratum corneum is an excellent water
barrier.
The key to the effective action of Effulgere, VerVeris, and Vaha skin
creams is based upon the penetration of beneficial agents deep into
the skin. These beneficial agents include an array of antioxidants,
Vitamin C, Vitamin E, zinc, and phenylalanine. These products were
invented after many years of research and testing and are the subject
of patents pending in the United States and foreign countries.
The extraordinary results that can be achieved using our skin rejuvenation
creams also flow from the high level of carnosic acid used in their formulation.
Carnosic acid is a phenolic diterpene. It occurs naturally in plants of the
Libiatae family. For instance, carnosic acid is a constituent of Rosmarinus
officinalis (rosemary) where it is mainly found in the leaves. Dried leaves of
rosemary typically contain between 1.5% and 2.5% carnosic acid and about
0.3% to 0.4% carnosol which is also an antioxidant. Rosmanol and
rosmaridiphenol are present in smaller concentrations. Carnosic acid is also
found in thyme, sage, and marjoram. It was discovered by Linde in Salvia
officinalis [Helv. Chim Acta 47, 1234 (1962)] and by Wenkert et al. in
Rosmarinus officinalis [J. Org. Chem. 30, 2931 (1965)]. It was then positively
identified in various other species of sage, such as for example Salvia
canariensis [Savona and Bruno, J. Nat. Prod. 46, 594 (1983)] or Salvia
willeana [de la Torre et al., Phytochemistry 29, 668 (1990)].
Carnosic acid is a powerful antioxidant [Brieskorn and Domling, Z. Lebensm.
Unters. Forsch. 141, 10 (1969)] and, according to a number of Russian works
is also an effective antibiotic against Staphylococcus aureus [CA 86, 117603r;
90, 49011b; 97, 67513r, 69163a, 69164b; 104, 221930w; 111, 130594t] and

Vaha
Post-Surgical Kits
is also effective against certain microorganisms responsible
for dental caries and bad breath [CA 97, 84835q].
Carnosic acid is incorporated into Effulgere, VerVeris, and
Vaha skin creams by incorporating a high level of rosemary
extract into their formulations. The rosemary extract used is
recovered from rosemary leaves using an advanced carbon
dioxide extraction process. This extraction process also
results in a significant level of carnosol, rosmanol, and
rosmaridiphenol (additional beneficial antioxidants) being
present in our skin creams.
The benefits of rosemary with respect to the preservation of
health and beauty have been appreciated throughout
history. Today these benefits are captured in Effulgere,
VerVeris, and Vaha skin cream more effectively than ever
before using the advanced scientific techniques developed
by Ad Lunam Labs. [More on the History of Rosemary]


The Effulgere line of skin cream creams are formulated primarily as a facial rejuvenation creams. However, they may also be applied to skin on other areas of the human body as needed to attain a high level of moisturization and revitalization. For instance, it is typically applied to the neck and décolleté in addition to the face.

The word "Effulgere" means "to shine forth" in Latin.
Exposure to sunlight that is
encountered from playing sports,
working outdoors or just being in
the sun with family and friends can
take a toll on a man’s face. This
can lead not only to advanced
aging changes but also skin
cancers and other dermatologic
problems. We developed VerVeris
to fit into an active man’s lifestyle,
from the locker room to the
boardroom. Applied once a day
either in the morning after shaving
or at night before retiring, VerVeris
uses potent antioxidants and other
proprietary formulations to help
provide protection from the
elements as well as maximized skin
rejuvenation.
Effulgere Post-Operative Kits provide patients with the
items that they need for a quick recovery and a better
overall result. Our post-operative kits make the
convalescence period easier and allow patients to
look better faster. Our postoperative kits also make
most patients feel more comfortable in quickly
returning to their normal lifestyle than would otherwise
be possible.
Vaha skin rejuvenation cream is in final
stages of development and is being
scaled-up for commercial production
and sale later in 2009.
