Are you ready for a “Culture Clash?”

There are number of stressful images from top news stories that conjure up in one’s mind when you hear about a “Culture Clash”. As minor as it may seem to some (most) of you, the Culture Clash between cleansers is very serious news. For instance, it may be easier for a teenager to agree with their parents than to convince a gel cleanser advocate to try a lotion cleanser, or vice versa. Yep – we can see the riot chants already starting… “Take Gel… We Won’t Go!” “Make Lotion… Not Gel!” and, so on…

Well, we all came together with peace, harmony and clean skin on our minds… to create a plethora of different cleansers from Oil, Powder, Gel, Foam all the way to Lotion. Which one is our favorite? – All of them, of course!

It is your lucky day, because we are highlighting our beautiful lotion cleanser, Culture Clash… made with growth factor rich Yogurt Extract along with vitamin rich, Rose Hip Oil. Culture Clash is best for sensitive, dull, mature skin. However, the anti-inflammatory and bacteria blasting properties work wonders on Rosacea and Health Challenged Skin®.

Putting our cleanser prejudices aside… Culture Clash is one of the few cleansers on the market that is worthy of everyone holding hands, around the campfire, singing praises to Culture Clash as one of the best anti-age lotion cleansers on the market… bar-none!

Active Interests:• Yogurt Extract – rich in probiotics and growth factors which help improve extracellular matrix repair and reduce inflammatory damage; also helps soften and condition skin.

• Rosa Canina (Rose Hip) Fruit Oil*- Vitamin C, flavonoids, carotenoids, aids in cell protection and regeneration, soothes, preserves skin elasticity, anti-inflammatory, fights bacteria.

Directions: Use Culture Clash to cleanse skin once or twice daily in order to increase moisturization and balance skin. Rinse well.

Introducing Solace

Product Name: Solace

Characteristic(s): White Cream-Gel
pH 5.09 (+/-0.2)
Skin Type(s): All, Sensitive

Paraben-Free
Phthalate-Free
Gluten-Free

Product Story:

Sometimes accidents are wonderful and the creation of Solace is no exception…

As with most development projects, we set out to create a product that could withstand the prestige of our other products. Since we hold some of the most intriguing creations, the goal was to make our new post-peel balm highly unique, staying clear of the grease that is typically used in balms.

What did we create? A captivating cream-gel texture that rapidly relieves inflamed skin (yes, it really works) without a heavy, greasy residue. As you can see by the ‘Active Interests’, the texture is not the only hero of Solace… the product has a team of heroes that work together to aid in wound healing, restructure skin properties, improves suppleness and reduces sensitivity.

Does this product have to be used only after peels? Absolutely not… Solace can be applied to skin that needs extra, special care. Solace could actually be marketed as a new anti-age moisturizer for dry, sensitive and environmentally stressed skins.

Relax and enjoy the relief that is brought to your skin after applying some Solace!

Product Story:
Due to the constant bombarding of stressors to the body, from medical infusions, chemicals in the ‘food’ that we digest, personal stress and/or environmental pollution (to name a few), the number of individuals with Heath-Challenged Skin® (ex: compromised, fragile and unstable) is growing by record numbers. Therefore, now is the time to create out-of-the-box skincare formulas that are comprised of three-dimensional solutions that address the three-dimensional issues found in Heath-Challenged Skin®.

Gentle Touch Body Lotion is uniquely blended for any skin types; however, this particular formula was specifically developed with one of our Chiral ingredients (patent-pending) that was created for Heath-Challenged Skin®. Gentle Touch Body Lotion softly glides onto the skin, without damaging or dragging thin, fragile skin. One of our product testers, who had healthy skin up to a year ago (currently struggling with stress-induced eczema) found Gentle Touch Body Lotion the softest, yet most emollient, of all of the body lotions they had tried. The results are due to the scaffolding effect of the new Chiral ingredient, as well as the magnitude of healthy ingredients that work together to provide comfort to (including burns from medical radiation), inhibit matrix metalloproteinase (MMP), promote improved skin tone, plus increase and retain moisture in skin.

Gentle Touch Body Lotion is not your ordinary body lotion. It is in a class by itself - gently moisturizing and healing skin, with a patented Chiral ingredient, without the damaging fragrances and parabens that riddle the market. You and your body deserve the relief that is only found in the Gentle Touch Body Lotion.

Product Story:
ro•sa•ce•a [ rō záyshee ə ] a skin disease of the face: a recurring inflammatory disorder of the skin of the nose, cheeks, and forehead that is characterized by swelling, dilation of capillaries, pimples, and a reddened appearance.

How many of us have gone through life with scarcely any major skin problems, when out of the blue you were hit with Health-Challenged Skin™ (ex: compromised, fragile and unstable) issues that were reserved for ‘the other guy’? Well, welcome to the joys of stress, environmental, chemical and medical overload. The skin condition called, Rosacea, is one of the most common Health-Challenged Skin™ problems and it is growing by record numbers. Therefore, it was extremely important for us to offer a Rosacea Calming Serum that addresses Rosacea head-on with a patented three-dimensional solution that targets the three-dimensional issues found in Health-Challenged Skin™.

Rosacea Calming Serum can be used by the most sensitive of skins, even though it was specifically developed with one of our Chiral ingredients (patent-pending) that targets the swelling, dilation and redness attributed to Rosacea. Rosacea Calming Serum gently glides onto the skin, without clogging pores nor damaging or dragging fragile skin. We have tested many Rosacea products in the past five (5) to 10 years, but our product testers have found that the most current Rosacea Calming Serum, with our patented Chiral ingredient, was the most effective at calming the skin while naturally balancing, brightening and firming the skin.

Rosacea Calming Serum is not your ordinarily mundane Rosacea facial serum – unlike any others, our formula uniquely counter balances the issues of Rosacea, while also combating and improving skin’s suppleness, firmness and reduces fine lines. Therefore, you do not have to have Rosacea to reap the many benefits of the Rosacea Calming Serum.
