Dr. Herzog's medical miracle

Over 40 years ago, Dr. Herzog, discovered the formula to stabilize oxygen in a cream and changed the face of skincare forever.

Just like every other cell in our body, our skin cells need oxygen to function properly. Oxygen – one nature's most effective disinfectants – is essential in killing bacteria to power up the skin cells, promoting collagen & elastin production and helping to renew, tighten, plump and strengthen the skin.

As we age and are subject to environmental influences, oxygen is sapped from our skin as oxygen-providing capillaries are destroyed resulting in fine lines and wrinkles, dry skin, blemishes, blackheads and other problematic skin conditions.

Dr. Herzog’s miracle formula is the only one in the world with stabilized active oxygen. The oxygen is released when it comes into contact with the skin, powering all its benefits directly to the oxygen starved skin cells in the epidermis. The miracle oxygen technology also works as a delivery mechanism for the other skin healing and anti-aging ingredients in the creams.

How does Dr. Herzog's technology work in a nutshell?

Most believed it was impossible to stabilize active oxygen a cream because it is very volatile: each oxygen atom strives to join another one to form O2. However, Dr. Herzog believed differently and worked tirelessly to develop a formula, which essentially creates small barriers around each oxygen atom so they can’t join with another one. When the cream comes into contact with the skin, the catalase enzyme on the skin destroys these barriers to free the atoms. The oxygen atoms join to create O2 molecules, which creates a mini explosion and release H2O (water). The resulting pressure propels the oxygen, water and other active ingredients including Hyaluronic Acid, Retinol and AHA under the skin, directly into the epidermis, where it is needed to optimize skin functions.

Dr. Herzog’s goal was to create a hypoallergenic oxygen cream for use as a medical treatment to repair the skin of burns victims. It was his wife, Karin, who convinced him of the benefits of his discovery for the world of skincare. The rest, as they say, is history.

Oxygen & The Brush

The Karin Herzog ritual is further enhanced by the use of the brush. 

The oxygen in the patented formula is only released from the cream when it comes into contact with the Catalase enzyme in the skin. Application of the oxygen creams with a brush prevents the oxygen from being released into the fingertips, saving its miracle powers for the areas where you need it most. 

The small brush is for the face and the large brush is for the body. The miracle creams that should be applied with the brush are: 

FACE: Oxygen Face, Vita-A-Kombi 1, 2 & 3, Vita-A-AHA, Vita-A-Apricot, Oxygen Hyalu Lift, Essential Mask, Choc02 and Rose. 

BODY: Oxygen Body 1% & 3%, Oxygen Sun and Silhouette.
