March’s Product of the Month is …. Power Rich!!!

This powerful restructurizing cream provides intense smoothing and structural support to the epidermis and dermis, and treats the loss of strength, elasticity and moisture in skin tissues, which may show evidence of depletion as early as the mid to late 20s. The result: stronger, more resilient and smoother skin without the use of potentially irritating hydroxy acids. Reducing potential irritation is especially significant in the context of environmentally sensitized skin, or skin which evidences cumulative, allergy-like responses to stress, environmental pollutants and other external factors.

Phase 1 – A blend of biostimulating active botanicals including Red Seaweed, Rice Extracts, Soy Protein Phytoestrogens, Kukui Nut and Licorice treats the loss of strength, elasticity and moisture in skin tissues. This seaweed-enriched plant base stimulates collagen synthesis and inhibits enzymes which break down the skin’s natural structural support.

Phase 2 – An acid-free exfoliator enhances cell renewal without the irritation or flaking associated with prolonged AHA use. Natural algae and yeast-derived complexes stimulate biosynthesis of collagen, enhancing skin firmness and moisture levels.

Phase 3 – Skin-regenerating Vitamins A, E, C and B5 help to reverse the signs of premature aging and sun damage while improving the skin’s natural barrier function. Protein fragments mimic the skin’s natural protein growth factors, while elastomer silicones optimize the barrier function of the epidermis, helping to repair the skin’s appearance.

Around age 30, depending upon genetics and lifestyle, four specific changes affecting the skin commence simultaneously. Facial fat thins out, cell turnover slows down, the spongy protein called collagen begins to lose its bounce, and the stretchy fiber known as elastin begins to weaken, losing its ability to “snap back” into place. The overall texture of the skin’s tissue becomes softer and looser, and the skin’s surface may become dull as the result of slower cell renewal.

How to use

For best results, we recommend that Power Rich be smoothed over cleansed skin morning and night. Concentrate on areas of visible aging to restore resilience and strength. The pharmaceutical-strength grade of this formula makes it most effective when used alone and applied directly to cleansed skin. After applying Power Rich to the skin, allow to absorb for one minute. In the morning, then apply Dermalogica’s Solar Defense Booster SPF30 before make-up application.

Power Rich is made up of three ingredient phases, precisely blended together to yield one concentrated formulation that provides intense hydration and structural support to the epidermis and dermis, while stimulating cell turnover and gentle exfoliation of stratum corneum cells. This results in a smoother, more even-textured skin that demonstrates increased turgor and firmness.
