Kinerase

Written by: Ellen R. Delisio

The Kinerase family of products is made with the synthetic plant growth factor, N6-furfuryladenine, also called Kinetin. (The daily cleanser does not contain Kinetin). Scientists discovered when cut leaves were dipped in N6-furfuryladenine, they did not dry up and turn brown. Then researchers found that the same compound helped skin retain moisture.

Here are the ingredients for several of the Kinerase products:
