Hevia Skin Care & The Secret Of Red Mangrove Extract (Photos)

In my search for the best skincare products I came across a product line called Hevia Skincare developed by a Dr Hevia, a Cosmetic Dermatologist.

I liked what I read about his philosophy regarding skincare, he was searching for ingredients in nature that had anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties. Ingredients that nourish the skin while repairing the damage due to the sun and neglect.

I started using his Luminous Day Treatment ($80) as an experiment to see if I would like his products. It went on easily and lightly, not greasy like some products. Dr. Hevia is all about the science of antioxidants and this product is unique because it contains red mangrove extract.

And how is that good for skin?

Through Dr. Hevia’s clinical research, he has discovered that we can protect our skin and promote cellular health much in the same way this plant protects itself from the harsh elements. He has also discovered that it has anti-inflammatory, wound healing, and antiseptic properties which aid in soothing and healing skin. Through a unique and proprietary extraction process, using red mangrove seedlings which are ecologically grown and harvested through a sustainable method, we are able to produce our powerful, patent-pending, anti-aging antioxidant.

I use this product every day along with my Day and Night Complex ($110) that you put under your eyes as another anti-aging product. This product also includes red mangrove extract and is fortified with soy and rice bran peptides to combat dark under-eye circles and micro-encapsulated filling spheres of hyaluronic acid to instantly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It smoothes and firms during the day & softens and hydrates while you sleep.The only product I put over these are a sunscreen I don't need any makeup, my skin has a healthy glow and feels fabulous! I am very impressed and feel Hevia MD Skin Science will be an important part of my skincare regimen.
