Ingredient Score:
Country Life Vitamins Maxi-Skin® Rescue earns a rating of 3 out of 5 green leaves. This product is designed to support skin health through a blend of vitamins, minerals, and a proprietary complex known as SkinAx2™. The key components are Vitamin C and Zinc, which are essential for maintaining healthy skin. SkinAx2™ delivers additional skin benefits with ingredients like Grape seed extract, which is rich in polyphenols, and a melon concentrate that provides superoxide dismutase, an enzyme that can help protect the skin from environmental stressors.
While the product aims to contribute to better skin health, it falls short in certain areas. The absence of organic certification results in a lower rating, as the product does not meet the criteria for organic sourcing. Moreover, it is not verified as non-GMO, which is another factor that impacts its rating negatively. The presence of palm oil raises concerns due to the environmental and ethical issues associated with palm oil production, such as deforestation and habitat destruction.
The capsules are housed in a cellulose shell and contain additional ingredients like rice bran extract, vegetable glaze, sunflower oil, and silica. The coating includes ethylcellulose and sustainably sourced palm oil, suggesting an effort to address some concerns related to palm oil. However, the lack of organic and non-GMO verification, along with the inclusion of palm oil, points to areas where the product could improve to align more closely with cleaner food standards.
Country Life Vitamins Maxi-Skin® Rescue is positioned as a middle-of-the-road option for those seeking to enhance their skin health through dietary supplements. It provides beneficial ingredients that are recognized for their role in skin care, yet its environmental and health-conscious credentials are compromised by the absence of organic and non-GMO assurances and the inclusion of palm oil. To be considered among the cleaner options in the market, the product would benefit from addressing these concerns.
