5 Science-Based Concepts
For Smoother, Firmer, & Younger-Looking Skin

The Moisture Support System

Mark Lees, we like to use the term “sun-damaged” rather than “aging” skin. The fact is that most symptoms we all think of as aging skin symptoms are actually caused by cumulative sun damage, not chronological age.
Many scientists and physicians now believe that up to 85% of the symptoms of aging skin are related to environmental factors, specifically cumulative sun exposure, and free radical formation.

Concept 1 - Use DAILY SUNSCREEN COMPLEX MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM everyday!
The daily use of a proper sunscreen is the most significant prevention technique in the fight against skin aging. Routine daily exposure to ultraviolet rays is the number one cause of premature aging of the skin, including skin discolorations, lines and wrinkles, sagging skin, enlarged capillaries (“red veins”), leathery texture, and severe dryness, not to mention the number one cause of skin cancer. It is important to emphasize that it is the cumulative daily exposure that is most damaging.

DAILY SUNSCREEN COMPLEX MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM is our specially-developed daily-use moisturizer with built-in Broad-Spectrum SPF-15 Sunscreen, helping to prevent skin damage. Special lipids and hydrators help keep skin looking moist, supple, smooth and firm. It can be used alone or under makeup.

Concept 2 - Use STRATASERUM ADVANCE MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM daily to help protect the skin from free radical damage, helping skin look firmer and clearer! Free radicals are unstable atoms that attack cell membranes, causing severe damage to cells and the skin as a whole, making it look older, irritated, splotchy and unclear. Free radicals are generated by sun exposure, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and pollution. There are several different types of free radicals.

STRATASERUM ADVANCE MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM contains multiple antioxidants that neutralize the effects of free radicals, helping to protect the skin, and restore a more healthy and youthful look. It includes Vitamins E & C, Natural Grapeseed and Green Tea Extracts, and superoxide dismutase, a powerful free-radical protective enzyme, helping soothe the skin. Long term use will result in firmer, smoother, and younger looking skin with more even color tone.. Use twice daily after cleansing and toning with your Mark Lees products as recommended by your skin care specialist.

Concept 3 - Use ALPHACREME-10 SKIN PERFECTING COMPLEX MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM daily to help exfoliate dead cells. A complex of naturally-sourced alpha and beta hydroxy acids with soothing Green Tea Extract in a rich, yet non-clogging smoothing cream, ALPHACREME-10 MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM helps to gently shed dead, dry cells, revealing a smoother, fresher, clearer, and firmer look to the skin. Regular use also helps boosts skin moisture levels, reducing the look of lines and wrinkles. Alphacreme is fragrance-free and has been irritancy and dermatologist-tested.Apply once or twice daily after STRATASERUM ADVANCE MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM has absorbed.

Concept 4 - INTENSIVE LIPID SERUM MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM helps boost the natural moisture factor in the skin. The skin’s moisture content is retained and secured by the intercellular lipids, between the cells in the epidermis. It is the lipid system that maintains this delicate hydration and are responsible for the skin looking firm, smooth, youthful, and healthy.

The structure of the epidermis has been compared to a brick wall - the cells are the bricks, and the intercellular lipids are the mortar that support and give structure to the bricks. In an old brick wall that has been exposed to the elements for may years, the mortar becomes to crumble. If it is not repaired, the bricks will eventually begin to sag, drop, and possibly, the brick wall may collapse.

The skin is similar. As we get older, the cell turnover rate slows down, and therefore, the amount of lipids in the skin decreases, reducing the amount of moisture retained by the skin. This lack of moisture is responsible for dryness, dehydration, lack of firmness, smoothness, making lines and wrinkles more noticeable.

In very recent years, cosmetic scientists have been able to develop lipid replacement systems, helping to replace and supplement the intercellular lipids, patching the “mortar” in the brick wall.

INTENSIVE LIPID SERUM MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM contains concentrated lipid complexes. Daily use helps the epidermis naturally become rehydrated, improving the barrier function, and significantly improving smoothness, firmness, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, sagging, and making the skin look much more youthful and healthy. INTENSIVE LIPID SERUM MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM is especially effective for the areas around the mouth and eyes, and on the neck.

MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM products contain all of these essential lipids, along with other important ingredients for sun damaged and aging skin.

Concept 5 - NIGHT CREAM MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM and EYE CREAM COMPLEXES MOISTURE SUPPORT SYSTEM attract essential moisture, providing proper hydration for the skin. Special hydrating ingredients within our Night and Eye Cream Complexes help to provide the skin with essential hydration, necessary for lipids to bind moisture. Night Cream Complex is a powerful hydrator, deeply boosting hydration, helping to achieve a firmer, smoother, more youthful look for the skin. Our special Eye Cream Complex provides extra emollient to the delicate tissues of the eyes, reducing the look of wrinkles and fatigue.
