EARTH MADE INGREDIENTS.
SCIENCE-BASED RESULTS.
We use a lot of big scientific-sounding words like carotenoids, lycopene, carnosic acid - but that's because lots of science-based research and studies have gone into our little red skinfood. It may feel a little overwhelming at first, but we want to be completely transparent with you about what goes inside you every time you take BOUNCE.
WHAT DO ALL OUR BIG SCIENCE-Y WORDS MEAN?
Carotenoids are the tiny pigments that give fruits, veggies, and other organisms their vibrant hues. The human body cannot manufacture them, making supplementation and dietary incorporation a necessity.

Lycopene is a type of Carotenoid. It is a red-hued molecule responsible for the vibrant coloration of many fruits and veggies. Acting as a potent antioxidant, lycopene plays a different beneficial role in our wellness at every stage of life.
The skin is the body's largest organ, and as we grow older, it takes more upkeep to maintain its softness, radiance and resilience. However, there is a positive association between antioxidant levels in skin and the perceived smoothness of the epidermis. Lycopene works hard from the inside out to keep skin looking and feeling healthy.
It is found in herb extracts such as Rosemary, Sage and Oregano. Carnosic acid has antioxidant and antimicrobial properties.
They are colourless carotenoids that accumulate in the skin and act as antioxidants to fight free radicals.
THE MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION: WHY TOMATOES?
Besides Lycopene, tomatoes are rich in Vitamins A, C and K.
​
BOUNCE is made with Lycored's Golden Tomatoes - a breed proprietary to Lycored. The Golden Tomato has higher concentrations of Phytoene and Phytofluene than any other tomato varietal.

WHY LYCOPENE, PHYTOENE AND PHYTOFLUENE?
The combination of lycopene, phytoene, and phytofluene has shown that these carotenoids exhibit protective action across a broader range of UV light, including UV-A and UV-B wavelengths.
In a simulated solar UV light study, this particular combination was found to be more effective than lycopene alone in reducing erythema (redness of the skin) following UV exposure.
