National Stem Cell has revealed that it is set to launch a new range of products that have been developed using stem cell research.
Tropelastin produced by human embryonic stem cells has been utilised by the company's subsidiary Decouverte Cosmetique in skin firming products CosmeticsDesign.com reports.
Chief executive of National Stem Cell Michael Cohen told the website that it is this chemical that can provide women with a 'glow' after they conceive.
He added that the company had used pre-2001 stem cells and neither destroyed nor created any cells during product development.
Some scientists have criticised the use of stem cell research in the development of cosmetic products because they say the technology is not yet advanced enough to deliver drastic results.
"The notion that you could do that with a cream is a little bit ahead of itself," dermatologist Dr Kenneth Beer told the LA Times. "It's a great piece of marketing because there is so much interest in stem cells."
