SkinMedica

Allergan, the company that produces two dermatology favorites, Botox and Juvederm, introduced its new company SkinMedica in 2012. After decades of research and clinical data, the experts at SkinMedica created a line of skin care products that will transform how you take care of your skin. If you are seeking products that will address your skin’s general health including texture and elasticity, the SkinMedica products, HA5 Rejuvenating Hydrator, Lytera 2.0, and TNS Essential Serum will prove to be game changers in your skincare routine.

1. HA5 Rejuvenating Hydrator

Whether it be on a regular basis or due to the change in seasons, most people, of any age can experience dry skin.

Enter SkinMedica’s HA5 Rejuvenating Hydrator. Specially formulated with Vitamin E, antioxidants, peptides and five types of hyaluronic acid, HA5 Rejuvenating Hydrator will instantly moisturize your skin and continue conditioning for up to eight hours after application.  
Applying HA5 Rejuvenating Hydrator in the morning and evening after cleansing will help balance out the skin’s moisture levels, eliminating any dry, flaky patches. In addition, this solution works by plumping up your skin, filling in fine lines and wrinkles. Fragrance and paraben-free HA5 Rejuvenating Hydrator can be used on all skin types and applied to the face, neck and chest areas.
