Features
- The seemingly miraculous active ingredient is pure hyaluronic
acid—one of the most effective moisturizing agents ever discovered by
medical science. Skin Hydration Complex utilizes natures own incredible
moisturizer to improve the smoothness, suppleness and texture of your
skin.
- Available through physicians and skin care professionals only.
- Identified biochemically as a glycosaminoglycan (GAG), hyaluronic
acid was isolated about sixty years ago from vitreous humor. It's name
is derived from the Greek word for glass—hyalos—which accurately
describes its transparent, glassy appearance.
- The surface layers of the skin are supported from below by columns
of fibers made up mostly of collagen and elastin. This network of fibers
form the 'molecular sponge' known as connective tissue. The spaces
within this sponge are filled with a composition of water, protein
complexes and hyaluronic acid. This jelly-like complex is necessary for
transportation of essential nutrients from the bloodstream, via the
capillary network, to the living cells of the skin.
- Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in great abundance in
young skin, synovial fluid and other tissues in humans and animals. Over
time, oxy radicals, produced mostly through exposure to pollutants and
sunlight, degrade and destroy hyaluronic acid. Fifty year olds are
estimated to have less than half the hyaluronic acid they had in youth.
- Contains genetically derived hyaluronic acid, not an animal derived
substance.
- Contains important amino acids—proline and glycine—known to be
important for collagen formation.
- Contains ellagic acid, found naturally in many fruits, and known to
suppress lipid peroxidation, helping to inhibit the development of age
spots.
Benefits
- Facilitates better absorption of vitamin C.
Oil-free, crystal
clear gel which instantly gives your skin a silky smooth texture. Ideal
for all skin types.
- Skin feels more resilient and extraordinarily smooth to the touch.
Perfect base for all types of make-up.
- Restores youthful translucency and buoyancy to the skin.
- Smoother, more radiant looking skin will be noticed in 3—6 weeks.
Directions
- Cleanse and tone.
- Apply Cellex-C Advanced-C Serum or Serum for Sensitive Skin. (If you
are using Skin Tightening Cream apply Skin Hydration Complex first.)

Note:
This product begins its moisturizing work beneath the surface of your
skin. It is not intended for surface hydration, so you must use an
additional moisturizer.
During the first two or three weeks,
absorbency may be greater for some people than others. Begin by applying
Skin Hydration Complex a little more generously for the first few weeks.
Gradually you will notice that the skin no longer absorbs the fluid as
quickly. This is a sign that your skin has restored much of its moisture
balance. Once this happens, only a small amount of Skin Hydration Complex
is required to maintain this as your skin will regulate the intake
automatically.

Water (aqua), hyaluronic acid, proline, glycine, ellagic acid,
