(I-Newswire) - Every year Allure samples, researches and tests new products on the market — from shampoo and makeup to moisturizers and anti-aging serums. Editor in chief Linda Wells says "We start testing products in April and spend months breaking out in rashes with our hair looking nasty and our makeup overdone to try everything out and see what works." Marketing studies show that the awards do have an impact on the buying habits of American women — "Every year this issue sells 57 million beauty products," explained Allure vice president and publisher Nancy Berger Cardone. After meeting the rigorous standards of Allure Beauty Experts, including review by renowned dermatologists, Skin Genesis’ innovative ingredient, Pro-Xylane™, is praised as the “molecule that keeps skin young-looking.” According to Debra Jaliman, professor of dermatology at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City, “The research [on Pro-Xylane] is amazing. It proves that these products produce long-term results by boosting the skin’s production of GAGS, which are crucial in fight aging.” L’Oréal Paris introduced Skin Genesis in August 2007. Formulated with patented Pro-Xylane™, an exclusive L’Oréal molecule seven years in the making that strengthens skin and reignites cell activity layers. The skin care line, made up of three products — Daily Treatment Serum Concentrate, Daily Moisturizer SPF15 Lotion and Daily Moisturizer Oil-Free Lotion — is made of 100% naturally derived ingredients and “green chemistry”.
