Glytone®
www.glytone.com
A Scientifically Advanced Line of Skin Care Products
Alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) are one of the latest weapons that we have in skin care. One of the more popular AHAs is glycolic acid, a natural fruit acid. In the most simple terms, glycolic acid works by gently sloughing off the skin's dead, uppermost layer. This process is also frequently referred to as "exfoliation." When used routinely, Glytone® can help reveal skin that looks the way you want.
While there are many skin care lines available in department or drugstores that contain glycolic acid, Glytone® is truly different. First, since Glytone® products are available only through your physician (and used under her expert guidance), they contain a higher concentration of glycolic acid than many department and drugstore brands. This helps achieve maximum results. But, that's not the only difference.
Glytone® has a unique, patented Novasome® microvesicle delivery system that enables the skin-enhancing benefits of glycolic acid to be time released. This is why Glytone® was shown to be significantly less irritating than a leading non-Novasome® formulation. Many other brands "dump" the entire dose of glycolic acid onto your skin at once. When this happens, so can unpleasant side effects such as stinging, burning, and red-looking skin.
Glytone® Gentle Facial Cleanser
A gentle, oil-free, soap-free formulation that's suitable for all skin types. In addition to cleansing away makeup and excess oil, it provides the continuous hydration and light exfoliation.
Glytone® Facial Lotion
This light, alcohol-free, oil-free lotion is suitable for all skin types (even oily complexions). While it relieves the visible signs of dryness, it also provides light exfoliating benefits throughout the day. To help prevent future sun damage, this lotion also contains an SPF 15 sunscreen.
Glytone® Smoothing Eye Cream
This rich gentle eye cream also uses the Novasome® patented, time-release delivery system. However, this time, instead of time releasing the benefits of glycolic acid (which can be too irritating for fragile under-eye skin), the Glytone® Smoothing Eye Cream provides hyaluronic acid and hydrolyzed collagen, resulting in improved appearance and texture of the delicate skin under the eyes.

Replenix
www.skincarerx.com
Certain plants such as green tea are composed of high content of polyphenol isolates that have been shown to have potent antioxidant properties. Most polyphenols in green tea possess highly potent antioxidant characteristics that can assist in minimizing free-radical induced skin damage. Studies suggest that green tea polyphenols can have an anti-inflammatory and calming effect and have been reported to reduce the appearance of skin redness often associated with Rosace.
Replenix Cleanser
Replenix Fortified Cleanser is a rich, soap-free cleanser designed to gently cleanse and moisturize the skin without drying. This antioxidant formula contains a blend of liposomal vitamins A, C, E, Green Tea, & White Tea in a combination with Coenzyme Q10.
Replenix™ CF Serum
Replenix™ CF Serum is a lightweight, fast absorbing formulation that combines the advanced moisturization characteristics of the humectant, hyaluronic acid with potent antioxidant benefits of green tea fortified with caffeine to deliver improved skin texture and tone.
Green Tea Study Highlights
- Recent studies suggest that "tea polyphenols are strong antioxidants, more powerful than vitamin C and vitamin E."(1)
- Studies further suggest that tea polyphenols have an anti-inflammatory effect. "Topical green tea polyphenols reduced UV-induced erythema and sunburn cell formation in human skin."(1)
- Studies suggest that topical antioxidants "should supplement the natural antioxidant protection present in the skin and provide supplemental reserves as oxidative stress depleted antioxidant stores."(1)
