The Ultimate Sequel -- Alba Advanced Skin Care with Organic Marine Complex
02/01/2004
February 2004 -- Alba, the recognized leader for natural, hypo-allergenic skin care, introduces Alba Advanced Skin Care, enriched with an organic marine complex of nourishing algae extracts and certified organic aloe vera barbadensis, for skin so beautiful, so healthy, so radiant, it glows.
The composition of seawater and sea plants is nearly identical to our own skin. Alba Advanced Skin Care utilizes this similarity with a unique skin-compatible marine complex of algae extracts renowned for their moisturizing, nourishing and revitalizing benefits. Depending on the skin care item, the organic marine complex consists of a combination of the following algae extracts:
Chondrus crispus (Irish moss): Derived from red macro-algae; moisturizes, conditions and soothes. Also used to treat chapped skin.
Dermachlorella: Derived from green micro-algae; hydrates, nourishes, detoxifies, firms and stimulates regeneration.
Enteromorpha compressa: Derived from green macro-algae; increases softness; anti-inflammatory properties calm the skin.
Laminaria digitata: Derived from kelp; highly moisturizing and smoothing; promotes and maintains firmness.
Macrocystis pyrifera: Derived from kelp; softening and nourishing; helps skin retain moisture; rich in vitamins and minerals.
Spirulina maxima: Derived from blue-green micro-algae; anti-aging and skin firming; mineral rich.
Ulva lactuca (Sea lettuce): Derived from green macro-algae; nourishes, hydrates and is an anti-inflammatory.
Certified organic aloe vera barbadensis is widely recognized as a botanical miracle, rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes, proteins, humectants, anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. With a pH nearly identical to our own skin, aloe increases the availability of oxygen to the dermal layers to assist healing with diminished pain and swelling, while stimulating cellular renewal for healthy, youthful skin. Alba Advanced Skin Care has significantly more certified organic aloe than any other natural skin care line.
Just cleanse, tone and moisturize - five minutes, twice a day - and a beautiful, radiant complexion is your reward. Developed to be pure and effective, the Alba Advanced Skin Care line includes:
