No one wants to look old and weathered. What we put into our bodies is just as important as what we put on our bodies. This is a message that Dr. Gary Goldfaden preaches to his practice as well as his skin care customers! Goldfaden Skincare is an all-natural dermatologist-developed anti-aging skin care line dedicated to using the incredible anti-oxidant rich properties of Red Tea, offering medical grade ingredients with healing botanicals and natural infusions. Hyaluronic Acid is a very popular and important ingredient found in the Goldfaden line. Daily usage of products that contain Hyaluronic Acid can assist in more hydrated skin, fewer wrinkles and a more youthful plump look to the skin.
Maybe you spent a little too much time at the pool or beach this summer and now your skin is paying for it? Heading into fall and winter, it is important to make sure skin is primed and protected. Dry or sun-damaged skin is crying out for hydration and there is no better way to quench its thirst than by using a serum that contains Hyaluronic Acid. Our Goldfaden Pure Power — Red Tea Antioxidant Complex is loaded with Hyaluronic Acid and Red Tea Extract to hydrate skin and give it that supple look. Another fun tip about this product is that it is terrific for use after waxing or shaving (men too!) due to the healing and anti-inflammatory properties of Red Tea. To really get your skin ready for hydration from a serum it is important to exfoliate the dead skin cells away first. Dr. Goldfaden’s original and coveted Goldfaden Daily Scrub is the way to go. Tiny ruby crystals exfoliate the skin leaving it clean and soft and ready to be hydrated.
Hyaluronic Acid, while not an antioxidant, is a very popular ingredient in skin care and beauty products. Hyaluronic Acid is a substance that occurs naturally in the body (cushioning the joints and found in the eye). In your skin, Hyaluronic Acid fills the space between collagen and elastin fibers. When applied to the skin through a serum, it attracts and retains moisture, keeping the skin soft and hydrated. While Hyaluronic Acid may have some free radical scavenging ability, its main purpose in skin care is to moisturize the skin. Skin care and cosmetic companies often mix antioxidants with Hyaluronic Acid to help prevent the signs of aging and to reverse sun damage. Studies have shown that antioxidants may prevent the formation of cancerous tumors and can reverse the signs of aging. Antioxidants may also provide some protection against ultraviolet light — a must for good skin care. In one of Dr. Goldfaden’s newest serums, he combines Hylauronic Acid with blueberries, pomegranates (two super potent anti-oxidants) and seaweed for supreme hydration. Goldfaden Blueberry and Pomegranate Anti-Glycation Hydrating Serum was created to stop the glycation process (weakening of the collagen fibers that leads to wrinkling and sagging). Not only does this serum hydrate the skin it also repairs and protects collagen fibers and helps diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Last but never least, moisturize! Try Goldfaden 3-in-1 Daily Moisturizer for oily/combination skin and Goldfaden 3-in-1 Daily Power Moisturizer for dry/combination/damaged skin, which is packed with medical-grade ingredients and is wonderful as a night treatment too!
Lisa Goldfaden was essentially born into the skin care industry, growing up watching her dermatologist father create skin care concoctions to test on the family. After earning a Master’s degree in Museum Education, Lisa decided to join the family business to help launch Goldfaden Skincare with her father Dr. Gary Goldfaden and brother Rob. Together they turned a few in-office products into a retail brand.
