Beauty Roundup: Skin Regimen, MAC, ODLR, Murad, In The Mood, Orly, OPI

I just recently learned about a new skincare brand, Skin Regimen, from leading Italian skincare brand, [comfort zone]. Founded by Dr. Davide Bollati, and sister brand to the Davines haircare range, the new, luxe collection includes 6 products that address skin aging in a comprehensive and results-oriented way. Skin Regimen covers the needs of both younger skin with first signs of aging as well as very mature, deeply wrinkled, depleted skin.

There are 4 main processes related to our lifestyle that can contribute to accelerating or contrasting aging:

– INFLAMMATION excessive immunity response caused by unbalanced lifestyle consequence: compromised skin health and beauty, visible irritation, sensitivity.
– OXIDATION free radicals attack caused by stress, smog, smoke and metabolic reactions consequence: skin cellular unbalance, wrinkles.
– GLYCATION sugars attack caused by junk food consequence: collagen and elastin damage, loss of tone and elasticity.
– METHYLATION compromised cell replication caused by lack of exercise consequence: skin damage and diseases.

Skin Regimen

One of the great innovations of the line is the ingenious way it came to life. Knowing how crowded the skincare sector is – especially products that address skin aging – Dr. Davide Bollati looked at the product development process from a “skin, soul, science” perspective. To do so he brought together a cross-functional, multi-disciplinary committee of scientists and wellness practitioners to examine the causes of accelerated skin aging. After two years of intense research, robust dialog among the scientists, and product testing this exceptional group of experts came up with the Skin Regimen collection. In tandem they also developed a comprehensive lifestyle approach for healthy living that includes recommendations for diet, exercise and supplements. The end result is Skin Regimen, a highly advanced skincare line that corrects and prevents the existing signs of aging, prolongs youthfulness and enhances overall well-being.
