Month: July 2019

With the summer months comes more time in the sun at outside cookouts, beach dates, festival fun and relaxing days by the pool. The sun can bring so much fun to our summer days, but it can wreak havoc on our skin: sunburns, hyperpigmentation, sun spots, dehydration and even more serious consequences. The bottom line—you need SPF every single day to help keep your skin protected from the harmful sun rays, whether you’re enjoying the summer weather outside or you’re in the office. Hydrate+ Broad Spectrum SPF 17 Moisturizing Sunscreen and Peptide Rich Defense Moisturizer with Broad Spectrum SPF 50 Sunscreen add a skin-nourishing barrier to the skin that not only helps block the sun, but also soothes and hydrates your complexion after experiencing sun damage.

On top of protecting you from harsh UVA + UVB rays, Hydrate+ works to visibly plump the skin while improving elasticity and loss of radiance. Using Hydrate+ helps give your complexion a firmer look, improving the look of fine lines and wrinkles for a more youthful appearance. To get the best results, apply Hydrate+ every day 15 minutes before being exposed to the sun, giving the moisturizer time to soak into your skin and work its magic!

Peptide Rich Defense SPF 50 blocks 98% of UVB rays, which are the rays that cause sunburns. Because of its broad spectrum protection, this bestselling moisturizer also blocks UVA rays—these rays penetrate the skin deeper, leading to wrinkles, hyperpigmentation and sun spots. Loaded with skin-loving peptides and antioxidants, Peptide-Rich Defense helps replenish moisture loss and reverse visible signs of aging while protecting your skin from the sun’s harmful rays—making it a customer favorite for years.

Summer days shouldn’t come to a screeching halt because of the sun. Hydrate+ SPF 17 and Peptide-Rich Defense SPF 50 help you take control of your summer skin—so you can enjoy the weather while staying hydrated, glowing and uber-protected!

Sometimes our skin just needs a pick-me-up—a product that not only makes our complexions look healthy, youthful and radiant, but one that actually transforms them from the inside out with intense hydration and good-for-your-skin ingredients. Look no further than Surge, our new Hyaluronic Acid Booster. Formulated for all skin types, this ultra-dewy, uber-nourishing serum penetrates deep into the skin to restore hydration, plump the look of fine lines and wrinkles, reduce the look of uneven texture and promote elasticity. Sounds pretty great, right? Let’s take a deeper dive into our newest launch and the ingredients that power it, including hyaluronic acid, kiwi fruit water and niacinamide. 

Hyaluronic Acid 

We all recognize hyaluronic acid as a buzzworthy skincare ingredient, but what exactly does it do? Hyaluronic acid is naturally made in our bodies to help our skin retain moisture, keeping it hydrated, glowing and healthy. With the moisture it locks in, the skin stays supple, reducing the look of lines and wrinkles. Surge gives your complexion an extra dose of hyaluronic acid in a super lightweight formula that penetrates deep into the skin to hydrate multiple layers at once. Say hello to moisture that lasts – not just a one-time hydrating fix.  

Kiwi Fruit Water & Niacinamide

Surge is also formulated with kiwi fruit water, which is rich in skin-brightening vitamin C. Kiwi fruit water is full of healthy antioxidants and nutrients that give your skin a radiant, youthful-looking glow while helping to reduce the look of uneven skin tone and visibly brightening the complexion. Combine it with Niacinamide, another active ingredient in Surge, to transform skin texture, tone and barrier function. When working in tandem, these skin-loving ingredients pack a powerful punch and manage to take years off your complexion, leaving your skin looking and feeling vibrant and healthy.

If your skin needs a brightening boost, a burst of hydration or just a good old-fashioned pick-me-up, add Surge to your daily routine! 

Oils are used time after time to help rejuvenate the look of tired skin, but they can be a bit intimidating to some. From familiar oils like jojoba and argan, to newly trending oils like moringa, these powerhouse ingredients help hydrate, sooth and fight signs of aging for a more radiant, youthful-looking complexion. Nothing to be scared of here!

Each oil commonly found in skin care products has its own unique properties and benefits for your skin. Jojoba oil helps decrease the look of acneic breakouts and helps repair damage caused by acne. If your skin is dry all over or in patches, argan oil is full of vitamin E and omega fatty acids that moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Olive oil is a powerful antioxidant that helps soothe skin after being exposed to UVB rays and helps prevent signs of aging. Safflower oil is also full of vitamin E and omega 6 fatty acids that fight the signs of aging and helps decrease the look of fine lines and wrinkles.

One of the oils we’re most excited about recently is moringa. Moringa oil contains all nine essential amino acids, making it a powerhouse ingredient for your skin that protects it from environmental stressors. The moringa plant has risen to a higher status in the past few years, both in the beauty and culinary industries, and is quickly making its way up the “superfood” ladder. Its leaves are full of potassium, iron and B6 and its seeds are pressed to create the anti-inflammatory and moisturizing oil we all know and love. Moringa oil also helps remove debris from pores, helps clear bothersome breakouts and decreases puffiness.

Which products in our line contain these nourishing, uber-hydrating oils, you ask? Purity Solution Nourishing Deep Cleansing Oil has a powerful combination of moringa, olive and argan oils to soothe and condition your skin while giving it a deep clean. Even though Purity Detox Scrub is a powder, jojoba oil is used to help naturally polish away pore-clogging debris, keeping your complexion smooth and clear. Remedy Omega-Complex Treatment Oil is full of safflower oil to help you achieve the look of nourished, radiant skin.
