Cult favorite SKiNCEUTICALS has just added a new product their line and it’s leading the way in a new wave of antioxidants. Rather, the main ingredient is one that is leading the way. Phlorentin CF ($150/1oz @ skinceuticals.com) is the result of 5 years of research and the main ingredient, Phloretin, is a newly discovered powerful molecule found in the root bark of fruit trees like apple and pear and is anti everything – fungal, cancer, viral, inflammatory. The unique molecular structure makes this one very potent. The patent-pending technology behind this one combines the Phloretin with vitamin C and Ferulic Acid (another well-known antioxidant) and is not only able to protect against free radicals but also against cell mutation and DNA damage. Whoa. So this is some pretty advanced stuff! I could go on and on with all the mumbo-jumbo literature but I think you get the picture and I am recommending this one if you are interested in using the latest technologically developed anti-aging product.

SKiNCEUTiCALS has a huge line of face-saving products. The super star of the week for me is the Serum 15 AOX. It’s formulated with15% L-Ascorbic Acid with Ferulic Acid. Huh? Simply stated, this is a very potent serum to apply to your face and neck before your moisturizer and it’s formulated for all skin types. It’s high in anti-oxidants with great anti-aging benefits. It also helps protect against damaging UVA/UVB rays and stimulates collagen production. And as an added bonus, I noticed that my makeup goes on a lot smoother too after using it. All that from this tiny bottle? Gotta get ya some, gals! $75/1oz @ drugstore.com ~Lisa

Who has time to worry about their skin when they are running around all weekend? Forget about it with SKiNCEUTiCALS new Sport UV Defense SPF 45 ($35/3oz @ skinceuticals.com). It protects your skin when you’re sweating from exercising or running from one sale to another. You know when you see Lifeguards on the beach with the white stuff on their noses so it doesn't burn? It's zinc-oxide and this one contains a transparent form of it as well as other protective ingredients. It even protects your skin while you're swimming! Now that's amazing.
