Soft Skin & Soft Hair on the Slopes & the Snow

By Laura Medina

Is your skin chapping in the Winter?  Peeling raw in the wind chill?  Cracking in the snow?

Yes hello to the most gentle skincare and haircare to arrive on the market, from the active, snowy, and dry climates of Denver, Colorado.

 Developed from high-tech labs and being skincare innovators, Osmotics Cosmeceuticals has brought some gentle and nourishing skincare and haircare products.  They do more than strip you clean.  They soften the the rough patches without the grease or the oils.  Great for the "sensitive-oily" complexions hitting the slopes or facing the wind chills...or even when it bakes in the arid, burning sun during Summer.

Clinique introduced then established the 1-2-3 Step System in properly taking care of your face.  Osmotics takes it further with its 4 Steps Daily Regimens System: Step 1: Cleanse,  Step 2: Correct, Step 3: Defend/Moisturize, and Step 4: Protect/SPF.

Let's start off with the Calming Cleansing Milk as the base of  the Osmotics skincare foundation, it's an extremely gentle cleansing milk for very dry, sensitive or irritated skin. This soap-free formula dissolves makeup and impurities, while natural botanicals provide soothing relief from irritation and redness. May be used by any skin type experiencing temporary sensitivity due to allergic reactions, or topical medications such as Retin-A, acne treatments or AHA skin peels.  Most people just say it nourishes and pampers the skin without stripping the skin dry or adding on pore-clogging waxy grease or oils.

This Calming Cleansing Milk is already a proven-hit seller.  Stockists can't keep this in stock.  Most beauty clerks say this flies off the shelf during the winter when the cold winds turn harsh, say like right now.

Eye Surgery Under Eye Rejuvenator uses powerful peptide technologies reduce stubborn dark circles and puffy eye bags while firming/smoothing creepy lids.
This grease-less Crease-Less Non-Surgical Alternative packs a powerful 3-in-1 punch to ease laughing lines and "crinkles around the eyes."  It carries their strongest anti-wrinkle octapeptide, 30% stronger than argireline, to relax the contraction of facial muscles, along with microalgae to stimulate the skin's cellular energy, and enhance the absorption of our octapeptide. Last but not least, hyaluronic acid wrinkle filling spheres instantly smooth, plump and firm---to visibly improve lined, aged skinCrease-Less is also the perfect companion product for maintaining and extending the results of injectable dermatological treatments.




 This spot-ridden scribe saves the correction step for bedtime when the UV rays disappears with the sunset.

When you wake up in the morning, you can repeat washing with the Calming Cleansing Milk.  For extra nourishing and pampering,  you add on Eye Surgery Under Eye Rejuvenator and Crease-Less Non-Surgical Alternative to aid holiday-partying skin and worn-out eyes.  But, if you can't wait to the slopes then the shopping, you can go directly to the Anti-Radical Age Defense Moisture Veil.  Why it's called a "veil"?
Easy, it's the lightweight/fat-free/oil-free alternative to the traditonally lard and fat-laden moisturizers and lotions that clog oily but sensitive skin probe to acne scarring and blustering...and who wants that during the holidays and on ski vacation?

This revolutionary light weight moisturizer,  Anti-Radical Age Defense Moisture Veil, is a must for defending your skin against the ravages of time.  This total skin defense system combines the newest and most powerful anti-radical protection with skin compatible lipids to restore your natural moisture barrier, the first line of defense against aging.  It is the only product on the market that targets all three types of free radicals while protecting cellular DNA. This is the go-to facial moisturizer for this oily-sensitive scribe when she hits the slopes in Aspen or Norway or sunny, snowy California.

Of course, never leave home first thing in the morning without sunscreen. This skincare fanatical scribe is really impressed with this sheer, oil-free formula that combines high UV protection (Broad Spectrum UVA/UVB) with the finest and safest ingredients to create the ultimate age defense. Advanced anti-aging formula also contains powerful antioxidants to fight free radical damage.  Perfect for all skin types.

If you use sunscreen as primer, this works beautifully under make-up.

Daytime shopping and skiing, evening date by the fireplace, don't forget those wind-chapped lips.  Don't let that blue tint undo you, Osmotics' Blue Copper 5 Lip and Tuck's Blue Copper technology is based on  copper peptide technology developed and used extensively in the field of wound care.   Copper, an essential mineral for skin health, combined with our collagen boosting 5-chain peptide work together at a cellular level to fortify the skin against visible signs of aging...which translates into a plumper, more youthful lips.   Super hydrating Hyaluronic Acid particles penetrate and swell the lip tissue to additional volume and plumpness. Nourishing macadamia nut oil soothes dry, chapped lips and imparts a glossy, soothing, and ok, seductive finish.


Can't forget those wind-chapped straws on your head, called hair.  They're suffering further damaged if they were highlighted or low-lighted or straighten or permed for your holiday ski trip.  The harsh weather and the cold and dry elements only make things worse.

Osmotics' FNS Hair Thickening Products are the softest shampoo and conditioner on the market.  They don't stripe.  They pampered stressed-out strands, great for color-treated tresses.
