SOTHYS Lift Defense 2 Serum

Serum Category: Anti-Age
Sothys again? Yes, after posting our last piece many readers contacted us to point out they are younger than 38 and would like us to include a serum with no age restrictions. We are, therefore, honoring their request. Thanks for your emails. We are listening . . .

Lift Defense 2 Serum is a reformulation hailed as an 'anti-wrinkle, firmness program' offering proven efficiency of up to 41% filling wrinkles (visioscan measurements) and 72% increased density and firmness, although it would be interesting to see more in-depth studies. This anti-age serum is great for any age with each application leaving the skin feeling as smooth as velvet. This formula is geared to prevent and repair damage to the dermal fibers with more than one approach. It will defend and restore collagen damage making it essential for women who are concerned with trying to minimize degradation of the skin and work on issues of repair.

This serum offers the tri and hexapeptides to boost collagen and elastin production and contains ingredients to rebalance the enzymes that regulate these proteins. There are also anti-oxidants to protect from free radical aging and a few ingredients, including some EFAs (essential fatty acids) to ensure the hydration is sufficient enough to allow for the best penetration of the other active ingredients. There are also dipeptides claimed to relax the features to help minimize stress and energize the tissues giving a smoother surface to she skin. The downside? The exquisite texture will have you using more than you need. Ohhmm . . .
