Climate change has been linked to everything from hurricanes to melting glaciers, which may seem far away from those of us in Southern California. However, there’s at least one way that these environmental shifts affect us all: by interacting with our skin. Dr. Susan Evans has created Refresh Skin Care with exactly these factors in mind.

The largest organ of the body, the skin protects our internal systems from exposure to harmful substances, but the skin itself is delicate and temperamental, as anyone who’s experienced a breakout can tell you. This new environmental wrinkle (pun intended) is the latest challenge for men and women who want to maintain a youthful appearance. As the ozone layer diminishes, more ultraviolet rays are reaching the earth’s surface, where it can increase our chances of skin cancer and other forms of sun damage. In plain language, this means we are aging more quickly than ever before.

Dr. Susan Evans has addressed these concerns with her Refresh Skin Care. The line offers moisturizers, sunscreens, antioxidants, exfoliants, and an anti-wrinkle formula that combat the effects of increased exposure to ultraviolet rays. And because they’re made with natural ingredients, they won’t clog your pores or irritate your skin.

All skin types can benefit from the EpiRenewal Papaya Cleanser and Grape Seed Moisturizer. The cleanser contains salicylic acid, a gentle exfoliant that helps wash away the dead cells that can lead to pimples, while the moisturizer contains Parsol 1789 to protect against the sun.

The Anti-Wrinkle Serum is also suited for all comers. Its combination of co-enzyme Q10, vitamin C, and retinol kicks up cell activity under the surface, while you can show off more elasticity and firmer, more youthful skin on the outside. Additionally, your face will enjoy heightened antioxidant protection.

Those with dry skin can also take advantage of the Liposomal Hydrating Cream, which nourishes the skin with vitamins A and E via lipid spheres. As a result, you’ll see more elasticity in your skin and fewer fine lines and wrinkles. Dr. Evans hasn’t forgotten about patients with oily skin, though; EpiRenewal Gel includes toners that renew and reinvigorate the skin, prepping it for creams, lotions, and even chemical peels.

Men are welcome to partake of these items, as well. The cleanser, creams, and serum are just as effective on men’s skin, and Refresh Skin Care even has a shave plan.

Dr. Susan Evans has drawn from her Harvard education and her years of caring to the needs of her patients to develop Refresh Skin Care. In addition to her work with Refresh Skin Care, Dr. Susan Evans is a board-certified dermatologist who runs a successful practice in Beverly Hills with her husband, Dr. Brian Evans, a plastic surgeon. Starting this fall, she will join the cast of Dr. 90210, the popular show on E! Channel. She is one of the first female cosmetic dermatologists featured on this upcoming season of the E! Entertainment Network?s hit show Dr. 90210 which premieres Oct 2, 2006. She is frequently a commentator in national magazines and TV programs, such as FOX, KTLA, CBS, and in OK! Weekly, People, and Health Magazine.

The environment may not get better any time soon, but your skin can. The privileged residents of Beverly Hills aren’t the only ones who can benefit from Dr. Susan Evan’s vision and treatments. With Refresh Skin Care, you can bring home these therapies and regain the skin of your youth.
