Skin Beautiful MD

There is a very interesting, and also very funny, new article in Vogue on natural alternatives to botox and fillers.

I'd strongly encourage you to read it, because it talks about the exact things we have been covering in this newsletter for the last few months.

The main point of the article is to inform readers that natural alternatives do in fact exist.  Which is true! 

The article explains that they also work really well, by relaxing facial muscles. Which is also true. 

The article also explains how the "science of skin care has evolved quite a bit" in the last 5 years especially.  Also true, and even a bit of an understatement. 

This article explains the exact same new technologies that are used in the Skin Beautiful MD line. The only difference is the brand mentioned in the article sources some ingredients from a farm in Vermont.

There is also a great tip in the article, to massage your face when you apply these ingredients. You want the ingredients moving around.

The very funny part of the article is at the very end, where there is a link for you to buy the formula mentioned in the article-- for $450 at Sephora! 

Based on everything we know, I can promise you that this $450 formula will work. 

What's it comes to making a skin product, is that there are only so many ingredients that you can put in a small jar.  The ingredients need to be contained and "suspended" in a base. There has to be balance between base and ingredients in order for it to be creamy and smooth and all that.

This article is fantastic because it highlights everything we have been saying about our own products.  The combination of Wrinkle Erase C and the Night Cream contain the exact technologies mentioned in the Vogue article- and then some.

For a fraction of the cost.

The only thing we are missing is the pastoral narrative around a farm in Vermont. But it really is fantastic to see press coverage on this. 

One of the newest evolutions in skin technology is around plant stem cells. 

This is an email we sent yesterday, and the promo mentioned in it expires today:

​Elastin is what helps your skin stretch and then quickly return to form. When you rebuild collagen, you also want to target Elastin levels. 

Stem Cells from Oranges have the unique ability to turn on the genes which produce much more Elastin, giving your skin a bounce you haven't seen in years.

This formula helps boost Elastin levels in your skin, and features a brand new technology from Barcelona, Spain. 

Stem Cells taken from Oranges have the unique ability to grow skin cells.  This helps dramatically restore skin elasticity, as well as repair sun damage.  The plant stem cells are combined with 5% Vitamin C and Caribbean Orange Oil.
