Fighting Aging–with a Punch!
Rumor has it that I don’t mess around developing skincare products. Point well-taken. Nobody ever called me a wuss.
I don’t believe that skincare treatment products can be truly effective unless they have high concentrations of active ingredients. If they’re “watered down” or have weak formulas–the skincare products are essentially just moisturizing your face–they won’t have any lasting benefit. If you’re going to fight aging, pack a good punch!
Take my newest creation–ZO Skin Health Ossential Radical Night Repair Plus–it’s what I call putting the punch into the fight against aging.
* It has ten times as much retinol as the leading beauty store brand; six times as much retinol as the leading drug store brand; five times more retinol than the leading department store brand.
* It’s in a water-free formula, so the active retinol is not diluted–it’s more potent. And Ossential Radical Night Repair Plus can’t evaporate–it stays on your skin until it’s absorbed.
* The time-release micro-spheres continue to work for 5-6 hours, so it can continue to work while you’re sleeping.
* A brand new peptide increases your skin’s tolerance for high concentrations of active ingredients (that’s my kind of peptide!). We always want to increase the strength of our skin; tolerant skin is strong skin.
For effective products, I like to develop formulas that are almost prescription-strength–you’ll get better results that way.

When You Lie About your Age…
There’s a new book called “When You Lie About your Age, the Terrorists Win” (Carol Leifer). It has some funny essays about aging, and one line that I especially appreciated was “at age 45, you’re only called ‘young’ if you drop dead”.While age 50 is “the new 40”, there’s no doubt about the fact that our culture values youth—if not the reality of youth (would you really want to make the same mistakes?), at least the appearance of youth.
But I would go even one step further than that book. Fact is, that at age 30 your skin cells go dormant, become lazy, and slow down cellular turnover and activity. So your skin ages considerably earlier than the rest of your body.
If you want to fight aging, fight hard! Beginning at age 30, be sure to use a skincare product that activates and stimulates your skin cells so that your skin cells regenerate, produce collagen and maintain a youthful appearance. During the daytime, consider a product like ZO Skin Health’s Daily Power Defense. In March, we’ll be introducing ZO Skin Health’s cult-favorite, Radical Night Repair-Plus. Now, it’s better than ever—and very effective at anti-aging. Can’t wait til then? In the nighttime, try ZO Skin Health’s Ossential Growth Factor Serum. Keep those skin cells active and vital!
