Why Does Courtney Love Kinerase?
Friday, September 28th, 2007
Have you seen advertising recently for this brand? It’s the one with Courtney Cox as the spokesperson. Well it caught my eye because of Cox and I thought if it’s good for her, it might be good for me…
Kinerase, pronounced kin (like kind), plus erase, is a brand that was developed by Valeant Pharmaceuticals, a company with 20+ years of experience in dermatology. Kinerase cream was launched in 2002 and is one of the leading dermatologist recommended moisturizers in the US, Canada and Europe. Kinerase now has a large family of products that provide a gentle, effective skincare regimen.
Made with the key ingredient kinetin, this plant-based extract helps visibly improve the appearance of aging and sun-damaged skin. The blue anemone, which is the flower displayed on the packaging, contains kinetin and scientists synthesize this moisture-boosting ingredient for use in all Kinerase products.
“Kinerase is a simple and effective skin care regimen that keeps my skin looking healthy and youthful,” states Cox. “Like every woman trying to juggle family and career, I no longer have the time or patience for time-consuming beauty routines.”
What are the products that Courtney Cox depends on daily?
C6 Peptide Intensive Treatment
The key ingredients of C6 Peptide Intensive Treatment work together to promote more youthful looking skin. The result is a healthier looking complexion with visibly tighter skin and fewer signs of sun damage.
Intensive Eye Cream
This eye cream is a deeply hydrating, intensive treatment that improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This velvet rich cream smoothes and moisturizes, leaving the eye area perfectly prepped for flawless makeup application.
Lip Treatment
visibly smoothes and plumps lips while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This innovative formula is an ideal complement to injectable fillers.
Lotion with SPF 30
Protects your skin from the #1 cause of skin damage. The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends this product as an effective UV Sunscreen.
Hydrating Antioxidant Mist
tones and exhilarates the skin, replenishing it with important nutrients every day.

Lashes Have Reached a Whole New Level

This fall, M.A.C is re-launching their M.A.C Lashes. Acclaimed celebrity lash designer Christina Smith who has designed custom lashes for Hollywood leading ladies including Liza Minnelli, Kate Hudson, Hayden Panettiere and Gisele Bundchen, has created 11 exclusive M.A.C Lash styles with original, new features and streamlined packaging.
NEW LASH FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
Color – M.A.C Lashes have a unique blend of black and brown natural hairs, so they blend more naturally with your own lashes. Great for even the fairest of lashes.
Clear Band – M.A.C Lashes feature a ground-breaking thin, clear band for easy application and flexibility. Lashes can move, bend and blend.

Clear Band – M.A.C Lashes feature a ground-breaking thin, clear band for easy application and flexibility. Lashes can move, bend and blend.
Shorter Width – Say goodbye to trimming false lashes to fit. M.A.C’s newly designed Lashes have a shorter width, so they fit comfortably to the length of your natural lash line.
Intentional Imperfection – No two lashes are the same or perfectly symmetrical. M.A.C created intentional imperfections in each lash design to create a more natural effect.

LASH STYLES:
#30: Individual lashes. Three lengths available in one package for the ultimate customization.
#31: Natural style length with a wispy texture. Perfect for those who want fullness every day.
#32: Natural style length that includes a combination of lash bundles and individual hairs
for a natural fullness.
#33: Natural style length. Separate lash bundles give a flirty fringe.
#34: Slightly more dramatic length. Wispy texture with winged corners.
#35: Slightly more dramatic in length. Separate lash bundles for fullness above the iris, which
creates a wide-eyed look.
#36: A full lash favorite that creates a naturally dramatic look.
#37: Most dramatic length. Theses Lashes are the biggest, fullest and longest.
#38: Natural style length with a wispy texture. This half lash adds subtle fullness to the outer corner of the eye.
#39: For the lower lash line. Natural style length with a wispy texture. Perfect for those
Of us who want extra fullness for lower lashes.
#40: For the lower lash line. Natural style length. Combines lash bundles and individual hairs.
HOW TO APPLY:
Christina Smith walks us through the steps for applying false lashes
Step One: Hold a mirror below your chin, look down into the mirror, so that your eyelid is fully extended.
Step Two: Apply a thin amount of Eyelash Adhesive evenly to the lash band.
Step Three: Let the adhesive dry for about 30 seconds, until it becomes sticky, and not wet.
Step Four: Affix lash on top of your own lash line. Use an orange stick to push the lash securely onto your last line. Let dry for a few seconds.
Note: I recommend curling and applying mascara to your own lash before applying the false lashes.
