If we had to dream up a true holy grail skin care product, it would check all the boxes: be packed to the gills with active ingredients; keep skin’s pH and microbiome in good health; be a favorite among dermatologists; and deliver real, visible results.
The products in Revision Skincare’s portfolio meet all of these criteria and more—no wonder it’s one of the fastest-growing professional skin care lines out there.
Not sure where to start adding Revision Skincare’s impressive formulas to your routine? We’ve put together this guide to everything you need to know about the brand, along with the top six products to try first.
What Makes Revision Skincare’s Formulas Unique?
In short, it's all about the science. While many skin care brands use third-party manufacturers, Revision Skincare owns and operates its own research and development facility in Dallas, Texas with more than 20 scientists on staff. This allows the company to develop innovative technologies not found in other product lines. The brand pioneered the use of bioavailable peptides, which help combat visible signs of aging, and formulates all of its products with prebiotic technology to harness skin’s natural microbiome.
All of Revision Skincare’s products are formulated to be compatible with one another (which makes it easy to customize your routine) and are designed with long-term skin health in mind. This means all formulas mimic the skin’s neutral pH level, and the brand doesn’t use certain ingredients (like denatured alcohol) that can damage skin.
Ready to see what this professional-grade skin care line can do for you? Here are a few of our favorite Revision Skincare products to try now.
1. Revision Skincare® Nectifirm ADVANCED 1.7 oz.
Do you really need a separate product for your neck and décolletage? Short answer: yes. “Each area of the skin—eyes, lips, neck, body and hands—is different. This means that not all ingredients and technologies are compatible with each area equally,” a Revision Skincare rep explains. With eight different peptides and Smart Antioxidant Technology, this cream is specially formulated to firm, lift and contour the neck and jawline.
2. Revision Skincare® Intellishade Original (1.7 oz.)
No time for a multi-step morning routine? This formula takes the place of five products: “You get the power to correct, protect, conceal, brighten and hydrate in just one step,” the brand’s rep explains. “Intellishade products deliver the benefit of a broad spectrum SPF 45, vitamin C, a tint with 'your skin but better' coverage and over 20 age-defying beneficial ingredients that allow you to layer your daily makeup over it, if you wish.” It also comes in matte and physical SPF versions.
3. Revision Skincare D.E.J Eye Cream (0.5 fl. oz.)
“D·E·J is a comprehensive, all-in-one product line inspired by the very important (but usually overlooked) structure of the skin, the dermal epidermal junction,” the brand’s rep explains. Think of the DEJ as the Velcro that holds together your skin’s outermost layer and second, support structure layer to keep skin looking firm and youthful. Unlike many eye creams, this formula can be applied to your entire eye area (including lids) and visibly reduces the look of sagging, wrinkles and hooding.
4. Revision Skincare® Vitamin C Lotion 30 1 fl. oz.
Not all vitamin C products are created equal. While most brands use vitamin C in the form of L-ascorbic acid, this formula uses 30% pure THD ascorbate—one of the highest-quality and most stable forms of this potent antioxidant that protects skin against free radical damage that can cause premature aging. It also contains brightening MelaPATH™ Technology for a more even-looking skin tone, and is formulated with a skin-neutral pH (no stinging!).
5. Revision Skincare® BodiFirm 3.8 oz.
Most of us skimp when it comes to skin care below the neck, but this body contouring lotion’s impressive effects will have you wanting to smooth it on all over. Patent-pending iFirm™ Technology (which blends peptides, antioxidants, botanical extracts and prebiotics) helps support the body’s natural production of collagen and elastin, while caffeine provides antioxidant benefits and glucosamine promotes cell turnover. The result? A firmer, tighter, more lifted and less crepey look for the skin on your arms, abdomen, butt and thighs.
6. Revision Skincare® Hydrating Serum 1 fl. oz.
Who says you need heavy, sticky moisturizers to quench skin’s thirst? This oil-free, ultra-light serum features two forms of hyaluronic acid that bind water to the skin, providing both short- and long-term hydration. Natural fruit extracts (watermelon, apple, lentil) keep skin uniformly hydrated, while vitamin E and pomegranate provide antioxidant benefits. You can layer this serum under your moisturizer if your skin’s feeling particularly parched.
