SCIENCE

Aging skin is constantly and increasingly susceptible to lipid depletion: the loss of natural compounds in skin’s surface, present in the predominant form of fatty acids, natural cholesterol, and ceramides. This lipid loss occurs with age and compromises skin’s natural protective barrier. This results in visible signs of accelerated aging as the skin loses its ability to effectively self-repair. From this, visible signs of aging may appear more pronounced, in the form of dullness, uncomfortable tightness, skin roughness and loss of facial fullness.

Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 is our first & best anti-aging cream to directly address age-related lipid loss with a 2:4:2 cholesterol-dominant ratio. This unique and specific formulation contains a maximized concentration of pure lipids easily utilized by skin.

Retinoids are known as one of the best anti-aging skin care treatments, but the adjustment period can cause redness, peeling, and flaky skin. Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 is now shown to shorten the adjustment period to retinoids by up to 1 week while reducing dryness.
