Why it Works: A Look Inside Magic Green Ice’s Unique Key Ingredient, EGF
An EGF (aka growth factor or sh-oligopeptide-1) is a naturally occurring protein in your skin.
EGFs were first utilized in the 50s as a way to speed up wound recovery and burns. It wasn’t until the 2000s that EGFs began making their way into skincare products. As it turns out, growth factors do more than just heal skin; they also act as signals for the body to produce essential rejuvenating skin components like collagen and keratin.
Why EGFs Are Good for Your Skin
Similar to collagen, EGF is a natural protein found in the epidermis that supports your skin’s natural rejuvenating properties. When it comes to skincare, these growth factors are widely known as a “fountain of youth” ingredient.
What’s more, growth factors are suitable for sensitive skin types, unlike other anti-aging ingredients such as retinol. In skincare, EGFs are the leading active ingredient when it comes to boosting cell turnover for fresh youthful skin. These growth factors also work to maintain skin firmness, smoothing out the appearance of wrinkles and uneven texture. Dermatologists recommend EGF-infused skincare products for those who are looking to repair and protect damaged skin due to aging, sun damage, dehydration, acne, and inflammation.
More Powerhouse Anti Aging Ingredients
Magic Green Ice also contains a pure concentration of chlorophyll to leave skin more radiant, nourished, and purified. Celebrities like Reese Witherspoon swear by chlorophyll as their skin rescue ingredient, sharing in an interview that she adds a few drops of this green extract as her magic remedy for blemishes. One study in 2008 found that treatments containing a derivative of chlorophyll (officially known as papain-urea-chlorphyllin) were more effective than over the counter treatments when it comes to healing damaged skin.
To add to the list of powerhouse ingredients that make Magic Green Ice one of the leading anti aging serums for mature skin, crocus chrysanthus bulb extract is included to help improve the appearance of firmness and is essential for keeping skin smooth, healthy, and vibrant. In vitro and in vivo studies have proven this bulb’s efficacy for increasing the growth factors in the skin that are responsible for keeping your complexion youthful and bouncy. One study found a visible firming anti-wrinkle effect after just two weeks of use. In short, crocus chrysanthus bulb extract leaves the skin visibly more resilient and supple.
Lastly, omegas in this anti-aging serum work to regulate the skin’s oil production, soothe irritation, improve hydration, and combat aging. Omegas are also known to have deeply moisturizing benefits to keep your skin feeling dewy and soft.

Love the new Magic Green Ice! How should I store unopened and opened bottles? In my refrigerator like my unopened youth serum?
So happy you like the new formula! Keeping unopened bottles in any cool, dry place is perfect. They don’t need to be inside a fridge, but you can absolutely keep it there so it stays cold and fresh!
