On a trip to the Peruvian Amazon, I “accidentally” discovered a natural skin beautifier that’s unknown to the outside world.

You won’t find it in any department store or hear about it on any daytime talk show.

Shield your face from damage.

The story of how I found it would make a good adventure novel… but the results I’ve seen with my patients are remarkable.

I have good reason to believe this could be the best skin beautifier and anti-aging tonic in the world.

It has the ability to visibly reduce the appearance of wrinkles, blemishes, and keep your face and hands supple and baby soft.

Today I’ll show you how you can be one of the first to watch lines, wrinkles, blemishes and age spots fade away. You’ll see rough, tired skin become smooth to reveal a softer, younger face underneath.

Glide your hand across your face and you’ll feel a firm, silky, youthful texture… look into your bathroom mirror and you’ll find younger, more beautiful appearing skin. The kind you haven’t seen in years.

I Went to Peru in Search of Healing Herbs…
What I Found Will Make You Look Years Younger

The women of Peru keep an extraordinary beauty secret.

There we were, having coffee in a small mountain town, high above the Amazon basin. Maggie, my Peruvian friend, was telling us about her career as a polo player and show jumper.

Someone at the table remarked, “How do you stay looking so good when you’re always outdoors…"

That’s when she let it slip.

“There’s something we have in this country that keeps our skin looking young. Without it I’d look like an old hag.”

The women at the table all sat up a little straighter, waiting for her to say more.

But Maggie just sat there with a grin on her face and took another sip of café au lait.

Sue, my American friend, was about to burst.

“Are you going to tell us what it is… or do I have to guess?”

“Caracol Bella.”

Sue looked at Maggie, waiting for a translation.

“It’s a natural remedy. It soothes your skin and locks in moisture. In fact, it can fade the appearance of the ugly things old age does to your face. Like I said, I would look like a hag without it.”

Sue was hooked.

And I was intrigued. Could these lovely South American women really hold the secret to soft and beautiful skin?

Later that afternoon I asked Maggie for more details. Turns out, women have been using this healing serum for about 15 years. Yet here in the United States, no one has access to it, or even knows about it.

How the 5-Star Restaurants of Paris Led to a Remarkable Discovery

Back in 1980, a family in Chile made a startling find.

The dry, withered hands of their farm workers suddenly became incredibly soft. And it worked wonders on their hands.

On their farm, they raised escargot for export to the famous restaurants and bistros of Paris.

Handling the snails had a rejuvenating effect on their skin.

After 15 years of research, the first serum hit the market. Today it’s the best-kept beauty secret in the world.

How does it work?

The escargot, a variety known as Cryptomphalus aspersa, produces an enzyme that seals in moisture and supports young, beautiful skin.

Escargot uses this enzyme as a kind of shield when they hibernate.

When the farm workers handled it, they found their skin softened, regenerated … and the appearance of spots and blemishes faded away.

Women like Maggie have been using this formula for years to protect their skin and keep them looking young.

I was so impressed by the results, I arranged to bring Caracol Bella here to the United States.

And There’s Clinical Evidence to Back it Up…

The journal Skin Pharmacology and Physiology published a study confirming the rejuvenating benefits.¹

U.S. and European researchers collaborated on a landmark study showing the molecular basis for this remarkable substance.

They concluded the enzymes found in Caracol Bella:

• Possess skin-regenerative properties
  

• Contain powerful antioxidants to fight skin damage
  

• Provide cellular regeneration

I’ve seen these results first hand.

Here’s what some of my patients are saying:

“I’ve already noticed a change to my face in softness and smoothness. I’m loving it! Also, it seems my cheeks aren’t as red as usual. I have lots of capillaries over my cheeks that make my cheeks look irritated with the redness, so I have to use makeup to hide them. They don’t seem as red as they have for the past 20 years. All in all, I am really liking this. I’m 57 and am always looking for something to ease the redness of my face and help keep my skin smooth and soft and combat any future wrinkles. I think I’ve found what I need in Caracol Bella. Thank you!!” -Nancy C.

“I’m amazed at how well Caracol Bella works. I’ve used it on my c-section scar for just 4 weeks and already I see great results. I also like the way it feels. It goes on cool and clean, not greasy or oily. And it smells fresh. I’ll definitely keep using it.” -Arlene M.

Powerful Antioxidants Shield Your Face from Damage

The study on the serum found in Caracol Bella showed it has powerful antioxidants, especially SOD. This “primary” antioxidant helps keep your face beautiful, even under the harshest conditions. It’s also your best chance at keeping a fresh, taut face that projects a clean, warm glow.

The researchers discovered that when the serum was applied twice a day for three months, signs of environmental stress were reduced significantly.²

SOD is a powerful antioxidant that helps fight free radical damage, helping your skin to look its best. That’s why the clinical results are so impressive. SOD is the first antioxidant to attack harmful “superoxide radicals” by transforming them into less reactive ions.

Caracol Bella triggers an orchestrated and well-rounded support of your skin, while at the same time protecting you even in the harshest environments.

But there’s another beautifier at play here…

Lock in Moisture to Keep Your Skin Firm and Tight

Caracol Bella provides your skin with one of the most important nutrients for beautiful skin: hyaluronic acid (HA).

HA is a hallmark of youth. Like water, HA hydrates your skin and gives your skin cells shape and structure. When you’re young and levels of HA are high, your face looks and feels smooth and tight. Your face has a clean, youthful shape.

But as you age, and levels of HA drop, your skin cells lose their structure. And when they start to collapse, your face starts to sag and droop.

HA has the amazing ability to hold vast amounts of water, absorbing around 1,000 times its weight in water. It enhances volume and elasticity to restore a youthful balance to your face.

And that’s exactly what your skin needs.

Without enough moisture, your skin becomes loose, dry and wrinkled, adding years to your age. But when your skin has enough HA, all that water plumps up your skin for a fuller, younger appearance.

When you use it topically, significant results can occur. That’s because your skin can absorb HA at a cellular level. Unlike some other moisturizers that simply sit on the top of your skin, HA sinks into the deeper levels of your skin tissue.

It also acts as a “carrier,” delivering all of the anti-aging ingredients in Caracol Bella deeply into your cells to create youthful skin that no store-bought product can match.³

HA on its own would be enough to make Caracol Bella an amazing find.

But the beautifying qualities of the serum, combined with its powerful antioxidants and HA, make Caracol Bella worthy of its near legendary status in South America.

And unless you travel to South America, there’s no way to get anything like it.

So let me make this easy for you.

1. Water, and…
2. Good nutrition

But there’s a problem. As you age, your skin loses the ability to hold water and take in nutrients. That leads to dry, sagging skin.

Here’s the good news:

You simply need an effective way to keep water in your cells and get more of the nutrients you need.

Here at my clinic, I use a rejuvenating formula that restores youthful skin, without the chemicals that pollute your skin.

Here’s how it works:

Step 1 is protecting your skin from the sun, pollution, free radicals, and the destructive effects of aging.

When you were younger, it was much easier. Your skin had a natural resilience that kept you looking your best.

There are nutrients in your skin that protect cells from damage. One of the best is CoQ10. Turns out it’s not just good for heart health. You can use CoQ10 on your skin for a beautiful complexion.

CoQ10 helps your face look younger by restoring youthful energy levels inside the cell, and protecting against future damage.

In one study titled, “The Importance of CoQ10 for Anti-Aging Skin Care,” researchers showed how CoQ10 keeps older cells functioning more like younger cells. Their discovery was published in the medical journal Biofactors.¹

Having younger cells means you look younger. But when your face isn’t protected, you start looking old before your time.

The sun, pollution, a poor diet, and other toxins in your environment attack your face in the form of “oxidative stress,” or “free radical attack.” Free radicals are electrons that break away and attack healthy cells.

And here’s the thing…

Free radicals hit each cell in your face 10,000 times a day. Now multiply that by the billions of cells in your face, and you can imagine what you’re up against.

Apply CoQ10, and the cells in your skin stay younger longer.

Cell line studies support it. A team of researchers in Japan found CoQ10 protected skin cells from death caused by oxidative stress.²

That means you have an effective way to look more vibrant and prevent future damage. It all boils down to giving your face the nutrients it needs to stay looking young.

But there’s more to CoQ10… it helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles, too.

Another team of scientists discovered CoQ10 decreases the appearance of wrinkle depth. So, instead of deep grooves in your face, CoQ10 helps make those wrinkles appear shallow and less noticeable.³

Step 2 for younger, more beautiful skin is water.

When your skin cells have enough water, they hold their shape. That means your skin feels taut and elastic.

The key is water… or more importantly, the nutrient that helps attract and retain water.

I’m talking about hyaluronic acid (HA).

Found in every tissue of your body, HA can hold 1,000 times its own weight in water. In your face, HA is essential. You find it in the gel-like matrix just below the surface of your skin. It surrounds the collagen fibers that give your face its shape.

When you’re young, levels of HA are high. And all the extra water gives your face that clean, firm shape.

But, like CoQ10 and other nutrients, levels of HA start to drop off as you get older. And the loss of HA makes your skin appear dry and wrinkly… even saggy and droopy.

HA puts back the water you lose with age.⁴ And that helps restore the tight, elastic shape you remember from your college days.

When you retain enough moisture and give your skin the nutrients it needs, college-age skin returns.

I’ve prepared a special formula to do exactly that for you. I’ve managed to put both CoQ10 and HA into a toner you apply directly to your face daily.

Simply wash your face and apply CoQ-Tone with a cotton ball or pad. That’s it.

You’ll start to see – and feel – the difference right away.

Unlike other toners, CoQ-Tone won’t dry your skin. It never feels greasy or oily, and it’s safe enough to use on very sensitive skin. It’s so gentle you can use it after you’ve had a facial, peel, or microdermabrasion.

Every morning, you’ll notice:

• Better, brighter complexion

• The appearance of more even color and better tone

• No irritation or burning

• Soothing, moisturizing quality with a smooth surface feel

• Reduction in the appearance of blemishes

• Smaller, tighter pores

• Tight, elastic skin

And you’ll look great.

Water and good nutrition means younger, more beautiful appearing skin.

Until now CoQ-Tone was only available to my patients.

I want you to feel this for yourself.

Get your CoQ-Tone Trial Offer right now for $29.95 plus shipping and handling. Or you can have CoQ-Tone delivered to you automatically every month and save an extra 10%. So you only pay $26.95 per month plus shipping and handling and you will always have your favorite toner on hand.

You don’t have to bake in a tanning bed to damage your skin from too much sun exposure. Spending time outdoors summer after summer without any protection can leave you with dark spots of hyperpigmentation that seem to pop up out of nowhere.

But before you slather on that over-the-counter SPF, keep in mind that using a generically formulated sunscreen religiously isn’t the answer – no matter what magazine or TV ads may tell you. Chemicals in commercial sunblock can do more harm than good. Instead of protecting your skin from sun damage, chemical sunblocks can cause premature aging and damage to your skin.

The use of sunblock is an interesting paradox in the health world.

We’re told over and over again to apply sunblock regularly because the sun is our enemy. But that’s not the whole picture. Your skin has everything it needs to naturally protect itself from the sun’s UV rays. You may have noticed that your skin starts to tan after spending time in the sun because it produces a substance called melanin. Melanin is your skin’s natural way of protecting yourself from sun damage.

But because of our constant use of chemical sunblock and sun avoidance, we’ve become more sensitive to the sun over time. This means that we’re at a greater risk for sun overexposure that could cause damage to our skin.

The solution? Zinc oxide is a mineral ingredient that won’t be absorbed into your bloodstream like so many chemicals found in over-the-counter sunblocks. Zinc oxide sits right on top of your skin to reflect the rays of the sun. Not only that, but it will boost your body’s natural antioxidant defenses to neutralize free-radical damage from the sun that causes wrinkles and brown spots.

Choose a natural product like Solis that contains zinc oxide to protect your skin from the sun. Solis is free from chemicals and carcinogens commonly found in over-the-counter sunblocks. In fact, many chemicals in commercial sunblocks in the United States are banned in other countries. But Solis uses natural, safe ingredients like moisturizing Shea butter, glycerin for deep hydration, and Canadian willow herb to soothe inflammation in the skin.

Solis is also made with cupuacu butter, a moisturizing plant extract full of antioxidants to fight free-radical damage caused by sun overexposure. This moisturizing ingredient will improve the natural defense of your skin to shield from outside sun damage – so that you can finally reduce the appearance of wrinkles and brown spots.

But as she got closer, I glanced down.

Immediately, my opinion changed. “Well over 50,” I guessed… in spite of a face that said “mid-30s.”

Then I started looking at other women shopping there. There were several with youthful faces… but who gave away their real age with a quick downward glance.

The problem? Their necks. They were taking good care of the skin on their faces, but neglecting skin that’s just as delicate… and just as visible.

Chances are you use a gentle cleanser, a natural toner and a powerful moisturizer to keep your face looking young and fresh.

But what about the skin on your neck? This skin is as thin and delicate as the skin on your face. And it’s often exposed to harsh weather… pollutants… and even chemicals like chlorine in your water.

For a truly youthful look, expand your facial regimen to the tender skin on your neck and chest. It will make all the difference in your overall look. And unless you wear turtlenecks year-round, people will notice.

The best thing you can do for your skin is to keep it hydrated. Well-hydrated skin is softer and smoother… showing fewer lines and creases.

Nothing keeps you hydrated like old-fashioned water. For the maximum benefit, I suggest drinking about 2 liters of purified water every day. But the elements can take a real toll on you skin.

To help keep your skin cells hydrated, I suggest Nature’s moisturizer – hyaluronic acid (HLA). I call it “Nature’s moisturizer,” because it’s naturally present in all your skin cells… and it pulls moisture into your skin from inside and from outside your body. HLA promotes healing, too.¹

Aloe vera and vegetable glycerine are two other natural moisturizers to look for.

You probably use a toner on your face before you moisturize. You should do the same for your neck and chest, too.

A toner should freshen and tighten up your skin. Most toners do it with alcohol. But believe me, there’s nothing age-defying about alcohol. It will dry your skin out and leave you looking older instead of younger.

For a toner that will leave your neck looking smoother, younger and more vital, you can’t beat CoQ10. Here’s why…

Your skin cells use CoQ10 to make the energy they need for everything they do. But as you get older, your body makes less and less of this nutrient. That’s one reason your skin starts to look older, drier and more wrinkled.

But when you put CoQ10 on your skin, it absorbs quickly into the cells… and has an amazing effect. As your skin cells start to absorb the CoQ10, they start pumping out energy and acting like younger cells again.²

And this skin doesn’t just act younger… it looks younger, too. Because CoQ10 helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.³ Which means your neck could easily look as young as your face.

Of course, your cleanser is your skin’s first – and best – line of defense. And that’s where most skin regimens go wrong.

You see, most cleansers contain sodium lauryl sulfate – SLS – and SLS is a skin irritant. Even worse, SLS robs your skin of moisture. In a California study, SLS made women’s skin look red and irritated and increased water loss.⁴ Do you really want to “cleanse” your skin with something like that?

That’s why a gentle, nourishing cleanser is so important. To keep the skin on your face and neck looking younger, use a gentle cleanser that supports healthier skin.

For example, rose hip oil promotes the production of collagen – one of the basic building blocks of healthy skin.⁵ So rose hip oil doesn’t just gently wash away impurities… it helps wash away the effects of years of wear and tear.

Extending your skin care regimen to your neck and chest makes all the difference. It doesn’t matter how young your face looks, if your neck gives away your real age.

Adding just a couple of minutes a day to your skincare regimen can have people thinking you’re years younger than you really are – because all your visible skin looks smooth, supple and youthful.

But did you know you can have naturally younger-looking skin in just hours? You can cleanse away tired, worn skin cells, stimulate a healthier base layer, and have a smoother, softer look.

One of the fastest ways to promote a more youthful look is a peel.

At first, this may sound strange coming from a doctor who believes in natural remedies. But you can actually get a safe, natural peel.

Chemical peels often involve harsh acids – such as trichloroacetic acid (TCA). TCA is also used to remove tattoos… and is even the basis for a commercial weed killer. Strong acids like TCA can leave your face inflamed and feeling raw.

On the other hand, a natural peel promotes healthier skin, while reversing the effects of years of wear and tear. Here’s what you need to know…

Most natural peels are done with glycolic acid – an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) – or with salicylic acid – a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA). To reveal the benefits of a natural peel, I’ll focus on glycolic acid (GA).

GA is a natural substance found in sugar cane. It weakens the lipid (fat) bonds that help hold dead cells together on your skin. That’s why it makes an effective peel.

GA promotes increased hyaluronic acid levels in your skin.¹ This is important, because hyaluronic acid is your skin’s natural moisturizer. It helps your skin hold in moisture for a smoother, more youthful look.

And here’s another way GA could help you appear years younger…

GA helps erase fine lines and wrinkles. That’s because it supports the formation of collagen – an important building block of healthy skin – and promotes the growth of new skin cells.²

But GA has other important properties when it comes to your skin.

• Researchers at Yale Medical School found GA has an antioxidant effect.
• GA also demonstrated an SPF (sun protection factor) of 2.4 after regular application.³

So, unlike harsh chemicals, GA leaves your skin stronger and healthier. It doesn’t just get rid of old, dead skin. It helps you replace it with new, healthier skin… and helps moisturize and protect those new skin cells, too.

With all those benefits, you can probably understand why I sometimes recommend natural peels to my patients. But I also recommend other steps.

If you smoke, stop. A Korean study found smokers are almost 3 times more likely to have moderate to severe facial wrinkling than non-smokers.⁴ Smoking doesn’t just wreck your heart and lungs. It wrecks your face, too.

What you eat also matters. Researchers in Australia discovered diets higher in vegetables, olive oil and fish help keep your skin smoother and younger-looking. Eating lots of margarine and sugar leads to more wrinkles.⁵

And, of course, getting a good night’s sleep gives your body a chance to rebuild and repair. Seven to eight hours of good sleep each night should be the basis of any anti-aging regimen.

If you decide to try a natural peel, start with a low concentration of GA. Professional peels start at a concentration of 20%. As your skin gets used to the acid, you can gradually increase the percentage. Concentrations run up to 70%… but I think that’s too strong for first peels.

“Home peel” kits are available at beauty supply outlets, but I think they’re a waste of money. The solution they contain is too weak to be truly effective.

Your best bet is to get your natural peel in a doctor’s office. The professionals there can give you a new, younger look in about an hour.

To Your Good Health,

Al Sears, M.D.

“The experts” fault everything from sun damage and poor hydration to a bad diet and faulty genes. Even smiling too much is said to cause wrinkles.

But there’s one cause you probably never suspected: your own skin cream.

Even worse than that, your skin cream could actually accelerate early wrinkling.

It’s because a lot of creams that are supposed to keep you looking good have the wrong blend of ingredients. This faulty combination of elements on the skin actually speeds up the aging process.

But thank goodness, there’s a way to protect yourself. It starts with knowing the difference between the creams that stop the effects of aging and the ones that trigger wrinkles.

“He Thought I Was In My 20s!”

Hi, I’m Jackie Silver. I’ve dedicated my adult life to uncovering common-sense tips and secret weapons to help women defy the effects of aging.

My goal isn’t just to help you look better, but also to improve your whole self — mind, body, and spirit.



Preventing wrinkles and taking good care of your skin is one of the best places to start.



I should know. I’m in my 50s, yet I get mistaken for a younger woman all the time.



It happens when I’m out with my teenage son, Trent. People think I’m his sister! Sometimes, I’ll even get asked out by men in their twenties.



Every time, it puts a smile on my face. Not because I was born with ageless skin, but because it proves I’ve unlocked the secrets to protecting myself from premature aging … secrets I’m about to share with you.

The 3 Guaranteed Wrinkle “Triggers”

We all know wrinkles are one of the surest signs of aging. But what actually triggers them?



Simple: Lack of moisture, loss of elasticity, and general thinning of the skin.



Older skin can’t hold moisture very well because it’s slow to reproduce cells. This is the beginning of the wrinkling problem. After all, without constant cell rejuvenation, your oil glands and fat cells waste away. Your skin gradually dries up and loosens.



Throw a little gravity into the mix and your loose skin starts to droop and fold over. Just like that, you have wrinkles.



Young skin, on the other hand, is thick and full of elasticity. This means it springs back to its original shape when you’re not using your facial muscles.



But older, thinner, drier skin is less resilient. So when you frown or smile, your skin gets pulled along with your muscle. Once pulled, it has a tough time going back.



Remember when you were young and grown-ups told you not to make faces because your face might “freeze” like that? Well, it’s kind of true once you grow up.



If you constantly make the same facial expressions, your skin is more likely to fold in the direction of those muscle movements.



So, what do you do about it? My gut reaction was to try to reverse the problem. And I think a lot of women feel that way. That’s why so many buy into outrageous claims and promises by some manufacturers.



For starters, you have to be careful. The majority of skin creams aren’t inspected in medical labs. Few medical doctors are even involved with the research. Worse still, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration doesn’t require companies to prove that their cosmetic products are effective.

Why Most Skin Creams Only Give You a Short-Term Fix

The truth is, most skin creams only offer a short-term moisturizer — including the expensive ones. That’s because the majority just consist of a water and refined-vegetable oil combination. Your face feels smoother right after using them because the water expands your skin tissues. It basically inflates those tissues like a balloon with water.



But, that fix is only temporary. In a matter of hours, the water evaporates and is carried away by your blood stream. Your skin cells shrink. Your face feels dry and shows wrinkles.



Worse, the oil component doesn’t offer any natural protective qualities. In fact, if your beauty product contains oxidized vegetable oils, they can spark the development of free radicals. Free radicals on your skin break down elasticity and strength because they attack your connective fibers.



This actually speeds up the process that makes your skin sag and wrinkly. It may also prompt a dry, leathery look.

You Need Something That Goes Further Than Skin-Deep

My secret is pretty simple. This means you need to take care of your skin from the inside out — particularly when it comes to your face.

I call it Replenish, my Age-Defying Coconut Honey Complex.

Best of all, I developed Replenish in partnership with Dr. Al Sears, MD. A leading anti-aging physician with extensive experience in the fields of complementary and natural healthcare, he also has a significant track-record in the development of his all-natural skincare products.

Increase Skin Hydration by 90% with an
Invisible Cushion of Moisture

The real secret to keeping skin wrinkle-free is to moisturize and sanitize — effectively. I say that because it’s more than just a matter of washing your face and rubbing on some lotion.

That’s why Replenish is so groundbreaking. Among other things, it consists of my proprietary blend of honey and coconut peptides. Let me tell you why this is so significant:

Honey is the ultimate moisturizer. It absorbs into the skin to create an invisible cushion of moisture and prevents drying. Honey also sanitizes, reduces inflammation, and helps protect skin from sun damage. It’s loaded with natural anti-bacterial properties that absorb impurities from skin pores.

So, I enhanced the cream with the following:

• Coconut water — Improves blood circulation and is also anti-viral, anti-fungal, and anti-microbial

• Hyaluronic acid — A proven moisturizer that reduces existing wrinkles thanks to natural tissue restoration properties

• Hydrolyzed rice protein — This proven skin conditioning agent protects against the degradation of collagen and results in visible improvement to skin surface conditions

• Royal jelly — This secretion from honey bees is scientifically documented to stimulate and rejuvenate damaged skin at the cellular level; it’s also considered one of the most effective anti-bacterial and anti-fungal agents in nature

• Saccharomyces lysate — Healthy skin must be able to breathe, and this bio-active ingredient naturally derived from yeast stimulates essential cell respiration making it easier for your cells to breathe. It also helps activate the regeneration of skin tissue

This remarkable blend of ingredients, combined with still other beneficial compounds, makes for a light, non-greasy cream. Because of that, Replenish is easily and readily absorbed into the skin of your face and neck.

One Other Thing You Should Know — It’s Called “Senescence” and You DON’T Want It

Have you ever heard the term senescence? It’s a synonym for aging. It describes the state of our cells once they’ve exceeded their cell division limit (meaning your skin no longer produces new, healthy cells).

Baicalin comes from the roots of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi. Not only can it delay cellular senescence, it also helps your skin recover the youthful characteristics you had ten years ago.

On the summit at almost 20,000 feet, I looked east and west. I felt like I could see all the way around the world. It was one of the most exhilarating experiences of my life.

The trek took us from intense tropical heat up into Arctic cold. And once you’re above the tree line, there’s no break from the relentless weather. At those altitudes, the bitter wind and intense sun can take an awful toll on your skin.

I was prepared for the drying wind and intense sun. But back at base camp, some other climbers who knew I was a doctor came to me for help with their dry, burned, and peeling faces.

I gave them the same thing I used, a natural plant that soothes and promotes healthier skin. And, like Mount Kilimanjaro, it’s uniquely African.

So, why didn’t I just use a sunscreen? Let me explain why I won’t use most of today’s skincare products.

A trip to the skincare counter today is more like a trip to a chemical plant. Most of the products you’ll find there contain all sorts of toxic chemicals and useless cover-ups.

In fact, almost 90% of all cosmetic ingredients have never been properly tested for safety. And you’ll find one or more of these chemicals in 99% of the cosmetics products on shelves today.¹ That would be bad enough, but even some of the ingredients that have been tested can damage your skin.

Take sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), for instance. It’s a detergent used in thousands of shampoos, body washes, and even toothpastes. But lab tests show SLS may make your skin peel and get dehydrated.^2,3 In fact, many labs keep SLS on hand specifically to cause skin irritation.

Even worse, some of these chemicals do more than just damage your skin. Parabens are a good example. You’ll find them in more than 19,000 cosmetics products, so you’d think they should be safe. But, among other things, parabens can disrupt hormone functions, interfere with male fertility, and some researchers believe it may be linked to some types of cancer.^4,5

In other words, the cosmetics counter is a dangerous place to look for skincare products.

So when I first heard of a safe African herb that could do wonders for your skin, I started digging.

And what I found was a healthful “tea” that’s been brewed for hundreds of years. But it’s been largely overlooked by the West until very recently.

For centuries, locals have brewed “red tea” from a unique plant that grows only around South Africa’s Cederberg Mountains. They use it for digestive complaints, seasonal allergies, nervousness, and poor sleep. They also apply the plant topically to soothe and moisturize their skin.

Outsiders didn’t “discover” red tea – or rooibos (ROY-boss) – until the 20th century. Even then, no one really studied its healthful properties. So this herb sat on the back burner for many years.

But recently, scientists have been taking a closer look at red tea. And they’ve uncovered some impressive properties.

Red tea is rich in the rare antioxidant aspalathin. Animal studies show it promotes a healthy immune system and supports production of SOD – one of your body’s most powerful antioxidants.⁶ It also promotes DNA health.⁷

There haven’t been many studies on red tea and your skin. But the few I’ve found all support the traditional use of red tea to promote healthier skin.

For example, Japanese scientists applied it to people’s itchy skin and found that it helped soothe and moisturize.⁸

Compared to most cosmetic products, red tea would be a winner just by being good for your skin. But red tea offers you a bonus.

In a Thai study released last spring, a red tea formula reduced the appearance of wrinkles. In fact, the formula with red tea was more than twice as effective as the other herbal formulas the researchers tested.⁹

So red tea not only promotes healthy skin, it promotes smoother, younger-looking skin, too.

I was so impressed with red tea’s performance that I started experimenting with different red tea skin formulations. A couple of women at the office couldn’t wait to try the stuff. And they loved the results. Words like “light,” “smooth,” “soothing,” and “refreshing” were floating around the office for weeks.

That’s pretty much what I told the climbers at the Kilimanjaro base camp. And thinking back on those sore, red faces, I’ll bet they ask me to bring enough red tea along for everyone on our next climb.

Here’s how you can try it out for yourself…

To Your Good Health,

Al Sears, M.D.

And it’s too bad we’re so frightened of sharks. Because they have a lot to teach us about health and beauty. Take shark cartilage for instance. It’s been proven to help protect joint tissue from arthritic breakdown.¹

And now we’ve discovered an old fishermen’s cure-all may be one of the most important anti-aging breakthroughs in decades.

Shark liver oil comes from sharks that swim in cold, deep waters – even down to 3,000 feet, where light doesn’t penetrate. At those depths, the pressure is intense and most sharks can’t survive.

But deep-water sharks have a substance in their liver that helps them survive in such harsh conditions. It’s a type of fat called squalene.

Squalene is also found in almost every cell of your body. Especially your skin cells. Sebum – your body’s natural skin lubricant and conditioner – is rich in squalene.

As it turns out, squalene has tremendous hydrating and moisturizing abilities, too… along with other anti-aging properties. And because it’s already naturally in and on your skin, squalene is safe and gentle.

But squalene doesn’t have a long shelf life and deep-water sharks are in short supply. So taking advantage of squalene’s benefits has been expensive. Until recently.

First, scientists discovered that squalene can be naturally stabilized. The result is squalane (with an "a"). Squalane has all of squalene’s benefits… plus, it remains stable for a long time. And new technology has opened up another, renewable source of squalane: olives.

Now the anti-aging benefits of squalene – once out of reach for most women – are available to everyone. And that’s great news, because squalane may be one of your most powerful allies in your fight against the effects of aging.

Squalane doesn’t act like a typical fat. Most fats oxidize easily. That is, they’re easily damaged by free radicals. But squalane resists oxidation. But it goes further. It acts as a powerful antioxidant on your skin. Studies have shown it’s as powerful as BHT, an antioxidant chemical used in many cosmetics.²

Squalane is so effective, the Academy of Anti-Aging Research reports it can even help restore smoothness to skin that’s been damaged by frequent detergent use or sunburn.³

And that’s not all. Squalane helps strengthen your skin’s ability to hold in moisture by forming a barrier on your skin. It absorbs deeply into your skin to promote flexibility and suppleness.⁴ French researchers also report it can help reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles.⁵

In other words, if you wanted to invent a perfect anti-aging cream for your skin, you’d invent something very much like squalane.

Squalane is already being used in some sunscreen products and acne creams… as well as in vaccines. With so many anti-aging properties, you can expect to see it cropping up in more products soon.

But beware. Some products contain very little squalane – as little as 1/10th of 1%. I doubt you’ll get much benefit from such tiny amounts. Be sure to read labels carefully before you buy. Ingredients are listed on product labels in the order of what it includes the most of, so be sure squalane is one of the first items listed.

Best Wishes for Health and Beauty,

If you take a second to check out the top ingredients in the majority of popular beauty products on the shelves these days, you’ll probably see a lot of the same thing. Antioxidant and vitamin ingredients that protect your skin from damage and in many cases, chemicals, chemicals, and more chemicals.

First off, I always encourage my patients to steer clear of chemical ingredients in their beauty products. When you start to see your skin for what it really is – the largest organ in your body – then it makes a whole lot of sense to put extra thought into the ingredients you put on it.

Every ingredient in your beauty products will be absorbed into your skin to reach your bloodstream and your circulatory system. So safe skin care products are the first place to begin. And the second step is to choose powerful ingredients that will really work to give you more bang for your buck in whatever product you decide to buy.

This is where things get a little more complicated. Sure, antioxidant ingredients are helpful to protect your skin from outside damage, like sun damage and pollution. Antioxidants can prevent wrinkles. But wouldn’t you rather use a powerful antioxidant that not only improves your skin but also protects your health? I know I would.

Resveratrol is an antioxidant found in red wine, red grapes, blueberries, and pomegranates. It protects cells from damage, boosts the immune system, and even regulates blood sugar levels when taken as a supplement. According to the National Institutes of Health, resveratrol can also protect against cancer and provide benefits to those diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.¹

Resveratrol is life extending in the supplement form. In 2003, a team of Harvard researchers published an intriguing report in Nature, showing that resveratrol increased the lifespan of yeast cells, making this a breakthrough anti-aging discovery.²

If resveratrol can do this much to protect your health after drinking a few glasses of wine, just think about what it can do for your skin when it’s in a beauty product! This is exactly what I’m talking about when it comes to using powerful antioxidants that can truly protect and improve the quality of your skin.

A natural moisturizer like SILK made with resveratrol will give your skin the protection it needs to stay young and fresh. Even if your skin has already been exposed to years of sun damage and pollution. Resveratrol works at the cellular level to protect and support your skin so that you look noticeably younger than your age.

Using effective and protective beauty ingredients can make a visible difference.

2 Daniells, Stephen, “Science: Resveratrol’s miraculous promise,” Nutraingredients-usa.com. September 14, 2009.

Most women come to see me about their health. But a lot of them ask about the health of their skin, too. And their top concern seems to be aging skin.

“I use a good cleanser,” they say. “I moisturize and tone. But is there something else I should be doing to keep my skin looking younger?”

My answer is yes, because your skin needs more than moisture. It needs nourishment.

My top choice for younger looking skin is better known for its heart health benefits. In fact, it’s so powerful, it can even improve the condition of people who need heart transplants.¹

I’m talking about CoQ10. And it has some remarkable properties that can leave your skin looking years younger. Best of all, CoQ10 can work directly through your skin.

Outside of its heart benefits, CoQ10 is best known as an antioxidant.

Toxins, pollutants, sunburn and even exercise create rogue molecules – called free radicals. These free radicals damage your cells – including your DNA. And when your DNA is damaged, cells will often “commit suicide” – called apoptosis. This keeps the damaged DNA from replicating and making new, mutant cells.

CoQ10 helps mop up the free radicals that do this damage. So fewer of your skin cells die and your skin remains healthier and more vibrant.²

But that’s not all CoQ10 can do for your skin. It’s good for wrinkles, too.

In a Japanese study, doctors applied CoQ10 directly to volunteers’ skin. The volunteers showed lower levels of enzymes – called matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) – in their skin.

MMPs are involved in tissue rebuilding. But your body may release too many of them under certain conditions – such as sunburn. Then, the extra MMPs act like a wrecking crew in your skin, resulting in wrinkles.

Dermatologists examined the volunteers in this study before and after applying CoQ10 for six months. On the “after” side, they found a noticeable reduction in wrinkles.³

Less wrinkled skin looks more youthful. So does skin that’s firm and toned. And scientists at Japan’s Shisedo Research Center discovered CoQ10 supports production of several elements that help your skin stay firm and toned.

When the researchers added CoQ10 to skin cultures, the cells produced more components of what’s called your skin’s “basement layer.”⁴ This layer is a little like the cement that holds tiles to your bathroom wall. Except it keeps your outer and inner skin layers together, enhancing firmness and better skin tone.

In other words, CoQ10 may be the master anti-aging supplement for your skin. It helps your skin look and feel more youthful. And it helps your skin act more youthful, too.

You see, inside your cells are tiny structures called mitochondria. These mitochondria make ATP – the fuel your cells use for energy. And they need CoQ10 to do their job.

But by the time you’re 40, your body is making less and less CoQ10. Without enough CoQ10, the mitochondria can’t make ATP. And without ATP, your cells begin to starve.

Eventually, your skin cells die faster than your body can replace them. Your skin begins to look old and worn.

In an interesting experiment, a German team applied CoQ10 to skin biopsies from mature adults. And something amazing happened. The mitochondria sprang into action again… and the old skin cells started acting like much younger cells.⁵

It’s almost like CoQ10 “woke up” the mitochondria. And once the skin cells had their energy source back, it was as if they had a new lease on life.

Finally, there’s one other reason I recommend CoQ10 as part of your beauty regimen.

Your skin uses several antioxidants to protect itself – including vitamins C and E, glutathione and CoQ10. But studies show that CoQ10 is the first antioxidant that’s depleted.⁵

That tells me it’s probably your skin’s first line of defense… so it’s important to make sure you have plenty of CoQ10 in reserve. Applying a toner or moisturizing cream with CoQ10 every day can help keep your skin looking smoother, healthier and more youthful.
