An inside approach to beauty

Back in the Nineties, it took two pills to start the internal skincare revolution. Danish brand Imedeen developed designer supplements for the skin. Nutrients go below the surface to improve the skin’s quality, structure and appearance and reduce signs of aging. That’s what I call skin regeneration through nutri-cosmetics.

"Imedeen pioneered internal skincare," says Jan Gert Vistisen, managing director of Ferrosan Asia-Pacific. "Backed by science and with a good track record, we sell the products and women buy them because supplements work." No wonder celebrities like supermodel Naomi Campbell, actress Natascha McElhone and Tamara Mellon of Jimmy Choo shoes swear by the beauty-boosting power of Imedeen.

Dig this, the skin changes as we grow older. Most topical creams only penetrate the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin. It is necessary to target the dermis, the second layer of the skin that contains collagen and elastin fibers. Imedeen targets the dermis from within and acts as the skin’s support system.

"Being the first on the market to introduce a specific internal skincare solution, Imedeen is equipped with extensive knowledge of what women need through our rich heritage in research and development," says Maureen Law, marketing and PR director of Ferrosan Asia-Pacific.

Since Imedeen truly understands the skin and skin changes that occur in women, they developed a series of supplements to suit the ever-changing skincare needs of women of different age groups. Just drink two tablets in the morning and evening and expect to see significant results in just three to six months. Start the path to younger-looking skin with the following products:

Classic

The original anti-aging formula, Imedeen Classic nourishes the skin from the inside. Made with Imedeen’s exclusive ingredient, Biomarine Complex, it improves the skin’s ability to retain moisture and reduces fine lines and wrinkles. Suitable for dry skin, it makes the skin smoother and softer. Experience the benefits (clearer, younger-looking complexion) not only on the face but all over the body as well.

Radiant Complexion

If you are from 25 to 34 years old, like me, and you love to party all night long, work the next day, lack sleep and have a poor diet, Imedeen’s Radiant Complexion is perfect for you. It contains Biomarine Complex and VitaMalp Z Complex (combination of vitamin C and zinc) that prevent early signs of aging. Skin will definitely be clear, radiant and supple.

Time Perfection

Made especially for women from 35 to 45, Imedeen’s Time Perfection contains Biomarine Complex, the signature ingredient that nourishes deep layers of the dermis to revitalize skin texture and appearance. It also contains lycophense (a mixture of grape seed extract and lycopene) to shield the skin against free radicals and environmental stresses. With daily use, fine lines, age spots and dilated capillaries are visibly reduced. So, the skin looks brighter and more youthful.

Prime Renewal

Women who go through the first five years of menopause lose 30 percent of collagen in their skin. Since the skin will be drier, try Imedeen’s Prime Renewal with the optimal firming formulation, formulated with Vitea protection complex, a great mix of anti-oxidants like vitamin C and E, white tea, grape seed extract, lycopene and zinc. The skin becomes firmer, wrinkles are reduced together with hyper-pigmentation and age spots. Plus, it stimulates collagen production and renews skin cells.

Tan Optimizer

Hopefully in the future, when we create a demand, Imedeen will bring the Tan Optimizer to the country. Modeled by gorgeous Helena Christensen, this product is for a healthy, sun-kissed tan. A tablet every day for a month will work to prepare the skin for the sun. Plus it supports the body’s natural sun-protection mechanism and promotes a stunning golden color that lasts.

I’ve been drinking Imedeen Classic for more than a month now. I noticed that the dry patches of my combination skin are moisturized. My skin feels firmer and looks more radiant. I am looking forward to trying the Radiant Complexion soon.

"Imedeen is a skincare partner that helps women deal with skin aging," concludes Law. Just look at Miss Universe 1973 Margie Moran-Floirendo. Her skin looks great until now. She has been a loyal user of Imedeen for years now even before it became popular.

It goes to show that real beauty definitely comes from within.
