Salicylic Acid
For the first step in exfoliation, Salicylic Acid works best to remove those damaged layers of cells that build up on your skin’s surface daily. Salicylic Acid, a Beta-Hydroxy Acid, is a highly effective superficial peeling agent and pore cleanser. Salicylic Acid loosens and removes aging and dead skin cells, oil and debris attached to the skin’s surface, stimulating new skin cell production and increasing collagen formation. As Salicylic Acid is oil-soluble and lipophilic, it penetrates sebum filled follicles and cleans out clogged pores, resulting in marked improvement in acne prone skin. Regular use of Salicylic Acid will result in a decrease in fine lines, smoother skin, more even pigmentation and a reduction in pore size.
Emlite Cream – Morning or Night
A skin lightening formula that also revitalizes the skin’s texture and tone without dryness or irritation. Emblica, a patented composition extracted from the plant
Phyllantus Emblica, is clinically proven to help reduce hyperpigmentation (excess of pigment on skin) and UV-induced pigmentation due to its pro-oxidative property. Freckles, sunspots, age-spots and uneven skin pigmentation all appear to fade and are gradually replaced by a more even, youthful-looking lighter complexion. “I like to use it on the backs of my hands! The sunlight through the car window ages our hands, too! Getting rid of the spots is GREAT!

Pure Squalane – Morning and/or Night
Naturally occurring in olive oil, BENEV Pure Squalane moisturizer decreases dryness and smoothes away scaly skin. Squalane is an unsaturated oil having the molecular structure similar to that of Vitamin A. Initially used successfully to treat tuberculosis, research later supported that squalane is found to be a remarkable immunopotentiating (enhancing the immune system) agent, stimulating cell mediated cytotoxicity and suppression of tumor growth. Studies have also revealed that squalane has a stimulatory effect on the healing process, supposedly due to its oxidizing effect. Squalane has been shown to have beneficial effects in the management of dermatitis and several forms of skin cancer.
Squalane is used in some of the world’s most expensive beauty formulas and BENEV makes effective use of this remarkable agent by providing it in its pure, 100% form
Hyaluronic Cream – Night Cream
A well-balanced night cream that contains Hyaluronic Acid, Squalane and Liposomes, which allow the skin to be hydrated and renewed throughout the night. Hyaluronic Acid creates an ideal environment for the generation of new skin cells and plays an important role in tissue hydration, lubrication and cellular function. Its unmatched hydrating properties result in increased smoothness, softening and decreased wrinkles.
Nightly use helps minimize the signs of aging.
Hyaluronic Moisturizer – Morning
Our bodies have the natural potential to produce Hyaluronic Acid for moisturization and joint lubrication. As we age, however, the natural creation of Hyaluronic Acid decreases. One of the most important biological functions of Hyaluronic Acid is its capacity to hold more water than any other natural substance. Thus, Hyaluronic Acid performs as an unbeatable moisturizer, while protecting, hydrating and regenerating your skin.
Hyaluronic Acid is used in some of the top-selling professional skin care products. However, due to its high cost, it is only used in very small concentrations in most products. Unlike any other hyaluronic acid product, BENEV Hyaluronic Moisturizer contains only pure, concentrated Hylauronic Acid and distilled water. Hyaluronic Moisturizer renews, protects and moisturizes your skin throughout the day.

These micronized particles are found to offer broadband protection for both the UVA and UVB regions of Ultraviolet light. BENEV Pure Titanium Dioxide allows skincare patients to customize the application of sun protection. Applying only a few drops will provide you with the added protection you need.
