Alana: There is a lot of Retinol in so many skincare products out there

and what we found is a lot of people can't use retinol and probably shouldn't, because

it sensitizes the skin, it causes redness, it can cause flakiness,

but the results of retinol, which that's what people are trying to achieve

is the pigmentation's lighter.

Anti-aging is for the smoothest of lines.

It helps to, you know, collagen.

But Eminence has come up with an answer to retinol in an organic way.

Rachel: Absolutely, so, one great thing about Eminence is we have leading

researchers and scientists who are always moving forward, so as we come out with new

products, we are always trying to be ahead of the industry and keeping up with other

ingredients that are very popular in skincare like a synthetic retinol.

What we are using now is a natural plant-based botanical blend that will mimic the action

of a synthetic retinol.

Alana: It's not retinol, but it's mimicking the results, so you're gonna get good results,

like you would with retinol without the redness and sensitivity.

Rachel: Absolutely, so it's chicory root and tara tree and this botanical blend will

act like the synthetic retinol and reverse cellular damage and reverse the signs of aging

while stimulating and boosting collagen production.

Alana: So, you could put this product on and you don't have to worry

about getting, you know, photosynthesizing, getting more sun damage,

because you go outside and you're in the sun.

You don't have to worry about--

you don't have to worry about thinning of the skin that you can get with retinol.

Rachel: Yes, absolutely, so we're gonna get all of the benefits without any of the

negative side effects of that ingredient and this is gonna be in our spring collection

that will be out March 1st that will also be utilizing apple stem cells to produce collagen and

help reduce fine lines and wrinkles in the skin.

Alana: So excited.

So, March 1st, 2012 is the new spring collection from Eminence Organic

and that's going to be under the products you were talking about as you can see here.

It's under their Age Corrective line, which they have the body lotion, eye serum,

moisturizer, and bamboo fluid, and it actually says on the bottle, "retinol"--

excuse me, "natural retinol alternative."

So, if you see it, you won't mistake it for another product.

This is the retinol alternative.

Rachel: Absolutely.

This is groundbreaking for us, so we are very excited, moving forward.

Alana: I'm excited to recommend to so many customers and clients.

Rachel: Yes, absolutely.
