This Moisturizer Is So Good That People Are Praising It From Mountaintops
The new Dr. Diamond’s Metacine HYDR/O Bioactive Hydrolipid Barrier Moisturizer introduces technology that allows it to penetrate deeper into theskin for lasting hydrating and a stronger skin barrier.
You know a moisturizer is good when people are calling you about it from mountaintops around the world. “During formulation, we had our own in-clinic focus group, and it was validating when patients would text me from Aspen, text me from Gstaad, text me from St. Moritz, on top of a mountain and say their skin still feels hydrated mid-day, hours after application,” says Tammy Goodarzi, Co-founder and Chief Brand Officer of Dr. Diamond’s Metacine. “That was the goal, and it delivers.
The new Dr. Diamond’s Metacine HYDR/O Bioactive Hydrolipid Barrier Moisturizer is their first product outside of The InstaFacial Collection trio, which is designed to mimic the Hollywood-favorite Diamond InstaFacial at home. Despite being so lightweight, the anti-aging moisturizer packs a punch with hydration and barrier preservation. According to research published in the journal Cells, maintaining an intact skin barrier is essential to skin health. Powered by Bioactive Hydrolipid Fusion, a proprietary blend of bio-identical hydrophilic and lipophilic micromolecules, it’s clinically proven to hydrate, soften skin, improve radiance, address signs of aging, even skin tone and protect.
“A lot of moisturizers just sit on the surface of the skin and trap in moisture on the surface, but they're not getting deeper into the epidermis to make a significant effect on decreasing transepidermal water loss and increasing barrier strength and function,” says Dr. Jessica Combs, Cofounder and Chief Executive Officer of Dr. Diamond’s Metacine. “We created this patent pending new composition of matter, Bioactive Hydrolipid Fusion, and it’s multiple ingredients, skin identical lipids and fats, like cholesterol, ceramides and fatty acids, with water. We're fusing the water together with the skin identical lipids and turning it into bio activated water so that it can rapidly absorb into the skin—they don't just sit on it. They hydrate significantly from cell to surface. Once they're in the skin these molecules are like a humectant. They help hold water in and keep water from evaporating. All of this is improving the barrier function. The function of our epidermis begins to decrease as we get older. The lipids in there don't work as well to stick the cells together and maintain the barrier. We are giving back to the skin.”
HYDR/O Bioactive Hydrolipid Barrier Moisturizer can be used by every skin type and need. “When I develop products, I consider both women and men,” Dr. Diamond says. “HYDR/O is a power player by formula, but it also has a lightweight consistency that both my male and female patients love."
