Recommended: Now Foods (http://www.nowfoods.com/) the vitamin company, has been making some basic beauty ingredients for years, though without much market presence and with some pretty ugly labels. I've been buying them online from a vitamin retailer. But then the other day at Whole Foods.... there they were, repackaged and with some new products. What I'm talking about are the Hayluronic Acid Firming Serum and the Hyaluronic Acid Creme, both of which are terrific (and I don't react to them.) The cream is an avacado oil, shea butter based night cream with soluble collagen and, of course, hyaluronic acid, which helps to bind moisture to the skin (or something like that). The serum is basically aloe with hyaluronic acid. Can't really go wrong with that if what you need is moisture (and I do). There is also a related moisturizer that is a thinner version of the cream for day use. Great!Avoid if allergic to milk: What's not great is the company's Wrinkle Rescue Moisturizer from the same line. It says "restorative lift and toning" on the label, but alas, it caused the dreaded contact dermitis. I'm not sure which ingredient is the culprit, but likely it's lactoperioxidase, which is apparently cow's milk derived. Even using it on my hands makes me itch all over. Boo.
