Q10 is often only known as an anti-aging ingredient, but this versatile molecule can improve skin health from the ground up. From intensive moisture to antioxidant protection, Q10 is a true all-rounder in skin care.
What is Q10?
Q10 is the body's own co-enzyme that plays a central role in cell protection and cell function and is essential for the energy supply and metabolism of the body's cells. Due to its antioxidant effect, Q10 protects the skin from harmful free radicals caused by UV radiation and environmental stress. In addition, Q10 supports cellular energy metabolism and is therefore a highly effective anti-aging agent. As we age, the body's own Q10 production decreases, which can manifest itself in a loss of skin volume, moisture and firmness as well as a pale complexion.
How does Q10 work in skin care?
Q10 provides both short- and long-term benefits to the skin. By neutralizing free radicals, Q10 helps keep the skin young and healthy. Connective tissue is strengthened by Q10 supporting the production of collagen and elastin. These proteins are crucial for the elasticity and firmness of the skin. Q10 also promotes the regeneration of skin cells and helps to strengthen the skin from within. The co-enzyme also promotes wound healing and supports the energy supply of skin cells, stimulating the regeneration and renewal of the skin. In addition, Q10 intensively nourishes the skin and protects it from moisture loss. In the long term, Q10 reduces the depth and appearance of wrinkles, improves the elasticity of the skin and brightens the complexion by reducing pigment spots. In addition, Q10 strengthens the skin's natural protective barrier.
Is there a difference between different forms of Q10?
In skin care, coenzyme Q10 is used in various forms for different skin needs. Ubiquinone, for example, protects the skin from oxidative stress and supports energy production in the skin cells. As a result, it can reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines and make the skin visibly plumper. Ubiquinone is absorbed directly by the skin cells and can be particularly effective in improving skin structure and health.
Dr. Tonar Cosmetics uses ubiquinone in the anti-aging facial oil LIFT. LIFT therefore contains an active and easily absorbed version of Q10. The Dr. Tonar Cosmetics facial oil is enriched with a high concentration of Q10 and has an intensive effect on the skin. The Q10 in LIFT works in combination with phytosqualane, which is extracted from a high-quality portion of olive oil and is part of the natural skin barrier. With the help of phytosqualane, the fat-soluble co-enzyme Q10 can also be transported into deeper layers of the skin and develop its intensive effect there. The apricot kernel oil it contains also ensures that the skin feels particularly healthy and supple.

The facial oil is best applied once or twice a day to dry or stressed skin on the face, neck and décolleté and gently massaged in. After a short exposure time, other care products can be applied. LIFT can also be used to enrich other care products by adding a few drops of the oil. Q10 is generally well tolerated and suitable for all skin types.
Q10 for youthful and healthy skin
Q10 is a valuable addition to the skin care routine that has a positive effect on the health of the skin. The active ingredient is an absolute game changer, especially when it comes to reducing wrinkles. The co-enzyme also supports the regeneration of the skin and at the same time protects it from environmental stress. Especially when Q10 levels are low, the use of Q10 contributes to a fresh and healthy complexion.
