NEW! Phyto Nature Firming Serum

10/14/2019

Dermalogica’s newest addition to the AGE Smart line, Phyto-Nature Firming Serum, claims to “give 5 years back”. Phyto-Nature Firming Serum targets premature skin aging resulting from our environment. As Dermalogica puts it, “your exposome (environment + lifestyle) adds years to your skin’s visible age”.
 
While regular skin treatments and proper home care can do wonders for skin aging, our environment and lifestyle can do just as much harm. Other factors that affect skin aging include excess sun, poor sleep quality or lack of sleep, unhealthy diet, and smoking.
 
 
When Dermalogica released Phyto-Nature Firming Serum, I was surprised at the price. However, it made more sense after reading about the product. Phyto-Nature Firming Serum is actually two serums in one. To clarify, it’s a “dual-phased formula” which takes effect in two phases, the lifting phase and the firming phase. There are actually two compartments in the product’s bottle, so the two serums are separate until use.
 
What’s in it:
  • Biomimetic Peptides: Dermalogica’s scientists work diligently to craft their products in the lab. Biomimetic Peptides “mimic naturally-occurring peptides”. These peptides (amino acid chains) “firm skin and reinforce skin defenses against your exposome”.
  • Botanicals: Amazonian Camu Camu (a berry high in nutrients), Moroccan Rockrose Extract (anti-inflammatory), and Caffeic Acid from the Madagascar Green Coffee Bean (yes, coffee!).
  • Phyto-Nature Firming Serum is an “advanced technology with next-generation hyaluronic acid”.
 
Phyto-Nature Firming Serum doesn’t serve as a replacement to other anti-aging products, but rather, as a complement. It can be used under any retinol product as well as with Dermalogica’s Power Rich moisturizer. Phyto-Nature Firming Serum is currently the company’s most advanced serum.
 
Phyto-Nature Firming Serum is an innovative product, fitting for such an environmentally conscious community. This product truly represents Dermalogica’s values as a cruelty-free company that strives to use naturally occurring and safe ingredients. After 1 application, it “doubles skin’s luminosity and minimizes the appearance of fine lines”. After 4 weeks, it “reduces visible wrinkles”.
