Chanel Introduces Ultra Correction Lift Skin Care

By tehreem | August 27, 2009

CHANEL has introduced Ultra Correction Lift, a line of four products that uses a plant-based protein.

According to the scientists at CHANEL Beaute, a lifted and toned appearance requires more than a boost of collagen and elastin. It also requires TENSIN, a critical protein, naturally abundant in young skin, that anchors and connects cells to the skin’s dermal network. CHANEL scientists discovered that the key to helping restore tensin to its youthful level is Elemis PFA*, an exclusive, powerful ingredient targeted to stimulate the production of this age-defying protein.

There are four products in the ULTRA CORRECTION LIFT line

  • ULTRA CORRECTION LIFT Sculpting Firming Concentrate 5.0 oz. $165.00
  • ULTRA CORRECTION LIFT Lifting Firming Day Fluid SPF15 1.7 oz. $150.00
  • ULTRA CORRECTION LIFT Lifting Firming Day Cream SPF15 1.7 oz. $150.00
  • ULTRA CORRECTION LIFT Lifting Firming Night Cream 1.7 oz. $165.00

Salma Hayek Developing Skincare Line

By tehreem | April 4, 2009

Selma Hayek has announced she will be creating her own anti-aging skincare line that will be sold in drugstores.

She said “I’m trying to develop a line with a drugstore so that it is affordable for everyone. We’ve researched for two to three years. My grandmother was a cosmetologist and she used to make her own creams, but my whole approach is how can we get the essence of the really expensive ones, but for everyone to be able to afford.”

Winter Skin Care

By tehreem | January 10, 2009

A. Vitamin A
It’s hard to find a derm who doesn’t love vitamin A in the form of topical retinol, one of the most effective weapons in the antiaging arsenal. When converted by the skin into retinoic acid, vitamin A boosts collagen production, stimulates cell turnover, and reduces the size and secretion of sebaceous glands, making it a potent cure-all for wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and acne. While stronger retinoic acids are available only by prescription, retinol—a milder form of vitamin A—is widely available over the counter.

B. Butter
Derived from the nut of the African karate tree, shea is one type of butter you can pile on guilt-free. It mimics skin’s own lipids, protecting it from irritation and speeding up its repair process.

C. Coffee
Talk about a wake-up call: Applied topically, vasoconstricting caffeine reduces redness and deflates undereye puffiness. Plus, the extract of the coffeeberry has 10 times the antioxidant power of other polyphenols such as green tea and pomegranate.

D. Vitamin D
Just a few minutes of sun exposure is enough to soak up a hefty dose of UVB rays, which help skin synthesize vitamin D, a proven deterrent to osteoporosis and heart disease. There’s no excuse for a bake-off, though—salmon and milk restock the nutrient without the risk of that other D: sun damage.
