Cupron's copper-infused fabric eye mask and satin feel pillowcase are used whilst sleeping to revitalise skin appearance

(15/02/2010)

Copper oxide beauty products are big news globally, where technology patented by American company, Cupron Inc. has made it possible for a skin-enhancing copper oxide compound to be woven into textile fibres.

A new anti-wrinkle gift set has been launched by Cupron Ireland in the UK and Ireland to counteract the skin ravaging effects of over-indulgence. The copper-infused fabric eye mask, gloves and satin feel pillowcase are used whilst sleeping to revitalise skin appearance within just four weeks.

The beauty-boosting effects of Cupron products occur when the copper ions in the fibres are activated by the skin’s moisture, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and enhance the look of skin smoothness.

The new beauty sleep trend of using copper-infused pillow cases, eye masks and gloves has been nick-named “Bedtox” and is seen as an affordable, natural and non-invasive alternative to Botox and expensive skin creams. The items do not lose effectiveness over time or with washing, so they also have eco-friendly and long term cost-saving advantages over creams and lotions.

The Cupron pillowcase and eye mask have a satin texture to avoid the dehydrating effects of cotton and are supremely comfortable and fully washable. Cupron copper oxide technology is non-sensitising and non-irritating and remains effective for the lifetime of the product.

Developed by Cupron Inc. using patented technology, the medical applications of copper led the firm to run clinical trials testing the potential of fabrics with copper oxide to reduce the visible signs of ageing. The results of tests comparing the skin of volunteers sleeping on pillowcases made with Cupron’s patented copper oxide formula, with those sleeping on placebo pillowcases, showed a statistically significant reduction in the appearance of facial wrinkles, crow’s feet and fine lines in those using the Cupron product over four weeks.

Cupron products work when in direct contact with the skin; therefore the use of fabric softeners in the laundry can reduce effectiveness by blocking the copper ions.

The beautifully packaged gift set cost £48.00/54.24 Euros (+P&P) and is available online.
