Our skin is a wondrous organ. When it is introduced to trauma, it kicks into high gear in order to heal itself without any help from little ol' you. Our skin is smart! Sometimes though, when our skin is working hard to heal, scarring can happen. Whether you are troubled with acne scarring, post procedural scarring, or old scars from your past, treating scarring takes some time and patience! We have just what you need to start your scar treatment protocol.
Catalyst AC-11: Allowing your DNA to repair itself is vital to scar healing and Catalyst AC-11 is just what you need to help your skin diminish the appearance of scars. It's unique combination of Vitamin C, amino acids, and minerals encourages the skin to heal and boost its elastins, which in turn will help cell turnover in order to speed up the scar treatment. This DNA Repair master combines science and result-driven effectiveness for a smoother, scar-free complexion.
Rescue: Using Rescue twice daily can drastically increase the strength of your skin, while helping soothe inflammation and increase epidermal repair. This epidermal repair serum is your go-to for scar treatment whether they be old or new.
Clear Plus+: Our activating mist is the perfect catalyst (pun intended) to penetrate these two healers deep into the skin. Use Clear or Clear Plus+ with both Catalyst AC-11 and Rescue to gain powerful results.
These three products are ideal for a scar busting protocol. Use Catalyst AC-11 with Rescue twice daily, followed by a few spritz's of Clear or Clear Plus+ to keep your skin scar-free. These products are ideal for all scar types and work great as a post procedure treatment. You will also get the benefits of clear, healthy, ageless skin while you treat your scars! Who can beat that?

Our bodies may seem calm and steady on the surface, but did you know that at our cellular level, our DNA works tirelessly around the clock to repair itself? Yes, DNA repair occurs in our bodies roughly 100 TRILLION times a day! Holy smokes that's a lot of work. DNA repair is vital to our bodies' health (skin included) and our overall well-being. You all know that we love providing cutting-edge, healthy, clean, and holistic skincare that works at a cellular level, and we must say that we love to toot our own horn when it comes to DNA repair... toot, toot!
DNA repair needs to happen on the inside and out in order for our health and our skin's health to remain in-tact and happy. We boast a patented, technology that boosts DNA repair on both the inside and outside of our bodies. We have two wonderful topical serums to choose from as well as one of our top 5 wellness products that aid in repair on the inside, let's take a closer look:

Catalyst AC-11 - The Big-Kahuna of DNA repair and age reversal, Catalyst AC-11 has proven itself as a skin health all star! AC-11, our patented technology which activates your natural zinc finger remodeling process, which is vital to DNA repair, aids in repairing all of your skin-sins. From sun damage to aging, scars to pigmentation, Catalyst AC-11 has been clinically proven to increase skin's elasticity and firmness and decrease signs of aging and sun damage. Catalyst AC-11 is ideal for all normal to mature skin types. If there is one item you need in your skincare regimen, this is it. It's your do-all, heal-all DNA repairing machine!
Elevate - This internal supplement contains our AC-11 ingredient which aids in DNA repair on the inside. When our DNA repairs itself, our immune system get a healthy boost, our internal symptoms of sun and free-radical damage reduce drastically helping our organs work better. It is vital that we treat our immune system just as good as we treat our skin. Our immunity protects us from disease, cancers, pathogens and, well, all of the bad things out there that can alter our health. Elevate is a key supplement to take in order to keep your DNA damage at a minimum AND keep it working 100 TRILLION times a day.
The science behind DNA repair is still relatively new, and we couldn't be more excited to be o the forefront of its development. AC-11 has been shown in human, animal, and in-vitro studies to increase DNA repair by up to 40%. FORTY PERCENT! That is an incredible result. AC-11 is a pure form of wizardry, the process in which we obtain it is quite fascinating. Imagine you are making a cake and you need to sieve your dry ingredients together in order to remove any bulky or larger lumps of salt, sugar, and flour so you get the smoothest cake possible (mmmmm cake). AC-11 goes through a similar process, removing any heavy materials (like tannins and alkaloids) which in turn, allows for a shockingly pure form of awesome that absorbs easier for the ultimate therapeutic benefit to your body and skin.
Adding one of our DNA Repair Serums and Elevate to your daily wellness routine is bound to shock and amaze you with its jaw-dropping results. Want to learn more about our technology? Check out our studies and patents to lean all about our unique approach to skincare and health.

Ahhhhh aging, the single thing we can all relate to. At Osmosis we embrace aging and accept it as a gift. Each year we are given the opportunity to learn, grow, and obtain knowledge that only comes with the aging process. The other things that come with aging... like fine lines, wrinkles, crows feet...the dreaded underage bags are luckily all things that can be slowed and treated. This month we have created a simple, functional and EFFECTIVE ageless facial that you can treat yourself to at home.
Follow along below to give your skin the gift of health and ageless confidence.
Step 1. Steam your face! Boil 2 cups of water, carefully transferring boiling water to a heat safe bowl. Throw in some fresh lavender or eucalyptus for a sensory experience. Lean above the steaming bowl of water and cover your head with a towel. Breathe deep and relax until the water cools and steam dies down.
Step 2. Remove debris, dirt, and oil. Use Deep Clean to reveal fresh skin.
Step 3. Treat with a quarter size dollop of Hydralift Firming Mask with two pumps of StemFactor. Apply all over, from forehead all the way down your neck. Massage into your skin with gentle tapping motions. Spritz with Clear + and let sit for 15 minutes. Use this time to look back at just how wonderful your life has been this far... (good and bad experiences included)!
Step 4. Use a soft, damp towel and remove mask.
Step 5. Take a look at yourself in the mirror and thank YOU for getting you this far!
Step 6. Tap a pea size amount of Refresh PM around your orbital and lip area.
Step 7. Massage 2 pumps of Catalyst AC-11 into your skin, neck, and chest.
Step 8. Spritz 2-3 pumps of Clear + all over and gently press into your skin.

We're very excited to share this Catalyst AC-11 testimonial from Dr. Safari Appearance Medical Clinic located in New Zealand.
"Osmosis has been a godsend for my clients with sun damage. The traditional treatments for sun damage and actinic keratosis (the flaky pink patches on the skin that have the potential to turn nasty) are usually very invasive e.g. liquid nitrogen, creams that burn the skin, and surgery. My clients understand that even surgery is not 100% effective as sometimes larger portions of damaged skin have to be excised or the lesion may grow back. Due to the down time involved with traditional treatments, some of my clients opt to have no treatment at all because they can not have time off work while being treated. Therefore, in May 2014, we started using Catalyst AC-11 as an alternative to traditional treatment.
Catalyst AC-11 brings the damage (obvious and under the surface) to the surface gradually with very impressive results. Treatment is non-invasive and can be done in the privacy of your own home. Whilst it may take longer than traditional treatments, there is no down time, and as a bonus, the skin looks much healthier and younger post-treatment. I am using this product myself and I am delighted with the results."

Ahhhhhh Winter. It's here, and we don't think it's going anywhere anytime soon. This season can be pretty tough on your skin, dryness sets in and your glow slightly fades. Sometimes getting in for a professional facial is just too much with holiday stress, icy roads, lacing up winter boots (the worst!) We want to make your winter skin care routine a little easier with a winter ritual you can treat yourself to once a week. So make yourself a hot cup of tea... or coffee, and set aside 30 minutes of pure, uninterrupted you time.
Step 1. Look in the mirror and say "Hey, good looking!"
Step 2. Give your senses a ZING with Cleanse, our pepperminty cleanser to draw out and remove impurities. Rinse with warm water.
Step 3. Apply in circular motions Purify, an enzymatic power house cleanser to remove deep impurities. Let it sit on the skin, uninterrupted for 3 minutes. Then remove with a warm wash cloth.
Step 4. Give your skin a firm up with Polish. Our cranberry enzyme scrub to gently remove dead skin cells and brighten the complexion. Rinse with warm water.
Step 5. Slay bacteria and heal your skin with a lemony dose of Clear Plus. Spritz on your skin and gently press it in with your finger tips.
Step 6. Massage one pump of Stem Factor with one spray of Clear Plus and a generous amount of Hydralift Firming Gel Mask onto your face, neck and decollete. Allow it to sit on your skin for 10 minutes then rinse with warm water.
Step 7. Using one pump of Catalyst AC-11 (our anti-aging all star), massage your skin starting from your forehead, working your way gently down to your neck using soft, light touches.
Step 8. Drench your skin with hydration and moisture with Quench. Don't forget your neck, ears and chest!
Step 9. Say, Ahhhhhhhhh while breathing deeply.
Step 10. If you treat yourself to this ritual in the morning, add protection to your skin with our Pressed Base and a swipe of our perfect, smoothing Lip Gloss in Bare.
We know it takes a little effort to give yourself 1 minute of time let alone 30, but trust us. Your skin (the largest organ of your body that also happens to protect your other organs) will be grateful, and so will your spirit!
Now go get your winter facial on!
