Kaplan MD Beverly Hills

We’ll admit, we were intimidated too. Kaplan MD Beverly Hills’ medically advanced collection combines the power of plant stem cells (rose, grape and apple) and certified organic extracts alongside Nobel Prize winning DNA Technology to really prove that it can transform skin. The initial feelings of intimidation shifted toward infatuation as I perused the collection at the Kaplan MD Launch Event. Here’s a few of the collections that I discovered:

The Luxury Concentrate Collection is comprised of Cellular Rejuvenating Concentrate ($295), Daily Moisture SPF 30 Concentrate ($185), Night Replenishing Concentrate ($225), and an Intensive Eye Concentrate ($135). The first product, a serum, is said to actually re-texturize the skin via one dime sized dab. This collection focuses on forcing existing skin cells to act as young cells, redefining texture. A dermatologist formulated and tested fountain of youth, anyone?

The Cleansing Collection, a cleanser and a toner (each $50), is the most important (and first) step in a skincare regimen. According to Kaplan, minimal foaming and milky cleansers are the most effective way to cleanse skin. They gently, yet effectively, remove impurities without over stripping skin of its natural oils. Kaplan also recommends always following your cleanse with a toner. Toning prepares the skin to receive all the nutrients from your treatment products. With 22 USDA Certified Organic Extracts and ginger root extract, the purifying cleanser restores skin’s natural pH. Whereas, the rich milky cleanser uses chamomile and soy to restore moisture.

The Lip 20 Treatment Collection, available in 8 shades, includes moisture therapy lip gloss and balm ($35) with SPF 20 to repair the delicate skin of the lips while enhancing natural fullness.

Saving the best bit of info for last. All of Kaplan MD’s products are paraben free, sulfate free, petrolatum free, castor oil free, Propylen Glycol free, PABA free, and mineral oil free!
