Glycolic Moisture Creme - botanical

We hear so much about AHA's (alpha-hydroxy acids) encouraging collagen production (which we all need more of, right)? What if a botanical product could do that for you without the use of any harsh chemicals? Take heart! It's here and it's very effective and can be used by all skin types.

 Our Glycolic Moisture Creme is a daily reconditioning and firming treatment containing glycolic acid and  natural fruit acids (alpha hydroxy acids) derived from  grape, lemon, passionflower and pineapple.  All of these natural fruits gently encourage the skin to shed its surface coating of dead cells. A blend of Sodium Hyaluronate and hydrolyzed glycosamino-glycans are added as lubricating moisturizers.   Used on a daily basis this high quality creme will help diminish fine lines, scarring and skin discolorations. Vitamin A, E and C protect the skin from the damaging effects of free radicals and help improve elasticity.  Another ingredient,  Salicylic Acid,   is  a naturally derived beta-hydroxy acid  found in Willow Bark Extract. It encourages surface renewal for a smoother texture. It is also know for it's antiseptic properties.

Note:  This product is light weight and oil-free.  When using any glycolic product always avoid the eye area. You might want to use an eye creme in that area.  If you use any glycolic or retinol product in the daytime, it is  recommended that you use a sunscreen such as our Advanced Protection SPF 30. You can use Glycolic Moisturizer  once or twice daily after thorough cleansing and toning of the skin.  Follow with a special treatment like SPF or moisturizer, or use at night when you go to bed. A true glycolic product will be recognized by glycolic lovers by its distinctive glycolic scent.

LUXURY BOTANICALS - Me and the Peptides!

A few of you wrote in and asked what products I personally use.  For the past five months I've used the following for my mature skin  (no blemishes, but on the dry side with fine lines that seemed to get deeper every month).  Limu Cleanser (good for all skin types, leaves my skin feeling refreshed, and I like the smell).  I use Vital Hydrant Toner all over my face and neck.  It is a gel, so I don't waste any of it. It not only removes soap residue but  makes your skin more receptive to whatever else you are going to use. It's very refreshing.  (Don't short yourself, use a toner). After that dries, I use Luminous Peptide Serum. Just a drop or two.  This serum makes your face look brighter and clearer right away. and removes brown spots. I never used a serum before this and in the five months I have used it, my sun spots on the side of my face
