| Everyone wants attractive, healthy, radiant skin. However, conflicting information, advertising hype and confusing jargon make it frustrating to choose the right products for your individual needs. I know from personal experience, enduring skin sensitivity from the age of 14, that finding effective, pure skin care products is no easy task. I founded Osmotics Cosmeceuticals in 1993 to bring an unparalleled level of science and real results to the anti-aging skincare arena. I was the first to develop a scientific advisory board (similar to those of pharmaceutical companies) and to work with university medical/research centers around the world to identify clinically proven technologies and compounds. This unique product development strategy allows us to bring you the most innovative, effective and award-wining cosmeceuticals based on science, independent clinical data and results, not hype. I very much look forward to getting to know you all, answering your questions and helping you achieve healthier, younger looking, more beautiful skin. |

5 Reminders For Daily Age Protection by Francine Porter
As a nation we’ve gotten much better about summer skincare – unlike our parents, we don’t often hold reflective foil panels to our faces, and most of us bring sunscreen to the beach. But on a daily basis, many of us stop worrying about UV rays! Here are 5 important things to remember: 1) Your hands and face are exposed year round no matter what you wear, and they are the first places you’ll show signs of aging. 2) UV exposure occurs through windows and light clothing – and people rarely guard against sun exposure through the driver’s side window. 3) For daily coverage use a sunscreen with Broad Spectrum UVA/UVB protection, no less than SPF 15. 4) DO NOT rely on makeup or lipstick for adequate protection! Both can fade and lose their potency throughout the day, so make sure to use sunscreen and a lip balm with an SPF. 5) Alpha Hydroxy/Retinoic acids thin the skin and increase sun sensitivity - SPF of 40 or higher is a must! So we’ve managed to kick our parents’ summer sun protection habits. And I mean no offense – I’m sure they’re fantastic people, but when you’re their age wouldn’t you rather look a generation younger? Always, Francine 2009-06-09 |
