Did You Know?

There are two types of aging…

• Intrinsic aging – what we are born with, handed down by our genetic code
• Extrinsic aging – what we are exposed to environmentally – sun, cold, pollution, lifestyle habits, & other stressors

Did You Know?

Your skin…

• Is the largest organ of the body
• Is a barrier to the outside world
• Keeps out water, heat, cold, germs, & insects
• The top layer (epidermis) is as thin as a piece of paper
• The inner layers (dermis) makes up 90% of your skin mass

Skin has habits, just like people do…

• Beautiful skin has the habit of reproducing itself, making more beautiful skin
• Troubled skin has the habit of reproducing itself, making more troubled skin
• If you don’t interfere with your skin’s habits, your skin will not get healthy
• You can retrain your skin on the cellular level to produce healthy new skin
• You can rebuild your skin from the inside out
• Once your skin achieves health, you can maintain it for life

Did You Know?

As our skin ages, it’s not pretty…

• The outer layer of your skin thickens, creating uneven texture
• You have less cell turnover
• Your pores enlarge
• Cells that make melanin function irregularly, leading to age spots and discoloration
• Collagen and elastin production slows down, weakening and loosening your skin
• Blood supply to skin is diminished, so less nutrients feed your skin
• Thick, irregular connective tissue forms, contributing to wrinkles

Over-the-Counter Skin Care Products…

• Contain low (weak) concentrations of active ingredients, by law
• Aren’t formulated with enough strength to heal below the surface
• Only work on the top layer of your skin
• Don’t penetrate deeply enough to actually change your skin
• Randomly chosen skin care products often work against each other
• Confuse the skin, while you keep trying, keep hoping…
• Lead to discouragement…so many bottles & jars…so little improvement
• Won’t correct your underlying skin condition, so they…
• Won’t result in a permanent improvement in your skin

To actually repair your complexion…

• It has to be corrected from the inside out – not from the outside in
• You have to actually reverse the causes – and signs – of aging
• You need a set of interacting products made to work together to get real results
• You have to pick a pharmaceutical grade skin care regimen
• You have to make a commitment to stay with it for 4-1/2 months
• You have to follow it exactly
• You have to decide you’ve had enough…and do what needs to be done.
