New premium line from celebrity dermatologist
MANILA, Philippines - Dermatologist, educator and innovator Zein Obagi, MD delivers a skincare breakthrough with his latest line ZO Skin Health, brought into the country by the Belo Medical Group. Obagi identifies five signs of good skin health: an even skin tone void of discolorations, blotchiness or blemishes, a soft and supple skin texture, no fine lines or wrinkles, firmness and resilience of the skin and lastly, radiance and clarity.
“The ZO Skin Health line is a more aggressive product line that will target the toughest skin dilemmas with more active ingredients, higher concentrations and pure retinol. The products address the needs of women who are concerned about skin aging and want to fight it,” says the US-based Dr. Obagi.
A purveyor of the skin health concept, Dr. Obagi is esteemed for his work in correcting a wide range of skin conditions like facial melasma, precancerous lesions, deep wrinkles, age spots, acne scars and sun-damaged skin. The ZO Skin Health line promises the best results for Filipino skin, which becomes oily skin due to humid weather and pollution.
Offects Exfoliating Polish
Skin condition: If you have dry or dull patches, sunspots, rough skin, uneven skin tone, fine lines and wrinkles, then this is your new best friend.
Oclipse Sunscreen+Primer SPF30 B What it does: It sloughs off dry skin and improves the texture, activates and repairs skin cells and provides a powerful anti-oxidant protection with Vitamins A, C and E.
How it works: The Magnesium Crystals immediately remove dead surface cells to allow for better penetration and enhanced cellular turnover. Vitamin A increases cellular turnover and boosts collagen production to help rejuvenate skin’s texture. Vitamin C and C-Esters are potent anti-oxidants that stimulate collagen synthesis and protect skin by reducing free radicals. Vitamin E is the anti-oxidant most recommended by dermatologists to fight free radicals and repair damaged cells.
Ossential Radical Night Repair Plus
Skin condition: Aging skin (over the age of 30) doesn’t perform like it used to—skin cells go dormant and cellular generation slows down.
What it does: Accelerates cellular turnover. Like magic, skin can now generate new cells and produce more collagen. This activity causes the older cells rise to the surface and naturally exfoliate. As the new layer emerge, skin appears younger, healthier, more even-toned and radiant.
How it works: Contains a potent concentration of retinol which reacts with natural enzymes to convert to trans-retinoic acid, a usable form of Vitamin A. It causes new collagen to be formed in aged skin and skin damaged by UV rays. It is the most effective topical anti-aging ingredient because it assists in the process of repairing and rebuilding collagen. The high content of retinol in this cream makes it work faster and more effective than other anti-aging products. Retinol is delivered in a “time-release” process so it spreads in a slow, steady continuous drizzle into the skin.
Oclipse Sunscreen + Primer SPF 30
Ossential Radical Night Repair Plus Skin condition: It’s common knowledge that the sun is the number one culprit for wrinkles, age spots and loss of firmness, yet people can’t seem to resist sunbathing for the perfect tan.
What it does: Packs more than the usual ingredients to combat sun damage. It’s also a 2-in 1 product, working as a primer that glides on smoothly and prepares the skin for even makeup application. Protects against UVA/UVB sun damage to reduce the visible signs of aging and improve skin health. It also works as a makeup primer, for even makeup application and leaves skin feeling silky smooth.
How it works: It contains melanin, titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, clinically proven non-irritating blockers. It stimulates collagen production with lipopetide. It also has vitamin E to fight free radicals and repair damaged cells. It hydrates and moisturizes with humectants and emollients.
