Moisture Cleanse by Dr. Loretta Recommended by the Gorgeous Women of Whom You Know
Whom You Know is pleased to kick off our coverage of Dr. Loretta! Moisture Cleanse is an ultra soothing cleanser containing algae peptides, Vitamin B5, and Chamomile. Debris are rinsed away without stripping skin of essential moisture. Skin is left hydrated, smooth, and glowing.
The Science:
Algae Peptides: Peptides are small molecules that can penetrate the barrier of the epidermis and have an impact on the dermis, or deeper layer of skin. These have the advantage of producing rapid, visible changes in the appearance of the skin. Specifically, they can cause tightening and the appearance of firming in the skin. Algae peptides are a unique extract from the Hawaiian Sea that have a component called hydroxyproline, an unusual amino acid that is rarely found in the skin except within its own collagen. Algae peptides are particularly impressive in their moisturizing and firming properties when applied to the skin.

Peptides are the chemical name for a chain of amino acids – and cosmetic chemists differentiate between the peptides that are not proven beneficial to the skin and peptides that are. When a peptide has proven in laboratory testing to have beneficial effects on the skin, it is classified as an active peptide. The family of active peptides is wide ranging – and when applied topically to the skin they can produce dramatic results. In one study of peptides, more than 30% of the people who used them saw an immediate improvement in their skin, while an additional 5% saw improvement after several hours. Almost 70% of users reported tightening and firming within two weeks.
Chamomile: This daisy-like flowery botanical is ultra soothing, aroma-therapeutic, calming and soothing to the skin, and helps reduce redness and irritation. Oooh especially the ancients on the panel love the daisy-ness!
The Gorgeous Women of Whom You Know put this to the test, and they say:
"Moisture Cleanse" is an apt name for this terrific product from Dr. Loretta. As promised by its name, the product cleanses the skin without stripping it of vital moisture. So often, cleansers tend to do such a thorough job of cleaning that they also clean out the things that are good for our skin, leaving it irritated an extra-sensitive. This super-gentle cleanser, however, does an excellent job of getting rid of dirt and debris and adding nutrients and moisture! It contains algae peptides, Vitamin B%, and chamomile, all of which combine to leave the skin feeling nourished and refreshed. It is gentle enough to be used on all skin types and it is especially good for sensitive skin or skin that has been damaged by dry, cold climates. I've been using it twice a day and have noticed that my skin seems softer, smoother, and more supple. It glides on gently, works into a nice lather, and rinses off easily. Although it's adding moisture, it doesn't leave behind any kind of residue or film. The skin is simply left hydrated, glowing and soft!
For my slightly-sensivite skin, a mild cleanser is a must, something that cleans without stripping moisture or causing any irritations. Dr. Loretta's Moisture Cleanse fits the bill for my skin type. It's almost a gel-base and I find the combination of chamomile, algae peptides and Vitamin B5 to be very soothing and comforting on my skin. It's quite mild but it also really cleans and removes all the grime from my long days. It leaves my skin smooth and prepped to absorb all the goodness of the moisturizer that I dab on after cleansing.
Cleaning and moisturizing the skin I find is one of the most important parts of having great skin. Dr. Loretta has formulated the perfect Moisture Cleanse. All you need is a tiny drop in the morning and tiny drop at night to keep your skin looking younger. As you do with most moisturizers that cleanse, just massage it into the skin. Then rinse it off with “tepid” water. My skin felt hydrated and refreshed with a natural glow radiating from it. Dr. Loretta recommends following this regime with what I call the Three P’s (Purifying Peel Pads). Promising to remove all the impurities in the skin, yet leave the good stuff in. Therefore you do not get a dried out flaky result. Instead your skin is softer and smoother and brighter. Just plain Radiant!
Dr. Loretta Moisture Cleanse leaves my skin looking and feeling light and bright. This product cleans my skin and removes any and all excess oil and dirt. The best part is that it doesn't dry my skin. It leaves the natural oils in place and helps clean and yet hydrate all at the same time. My skin also feels much softer. The formula is gentle and effective which I feel is a rare combination. This moisture cleanse doesn't have a scent which is also great. It lathers up really well and washes off easily. This product is also great to remove your makeup how great is that? It's basically a 2 in 1 - wash your face and remove your makeup at the same time!
I think we all know that if we take care of our skin, it will appear more youthful and healthy. One way to maintain that look is by using a cleanser. I have tried so many cleansers over the past few years. Some left my skin feeling dry, and others just didn't leave it feeling like anything at all! What I like about Loretta's Moisture Cleanse is that its gentle to my skin. It's packed with vitamin B5 and chamomile which are known for their soothing affects. It is also a collagen boosting cleanser. We all know how collagen tightens and keeps our skin firm, so that's definitely a plus! This cleanser doesn't leave the skin irritated. Instead it leaves it feeling clean and fresh. Love it! Oh, and it smells great!
