Skin Care Products
Our emphasis is on educating you and encouraging you to wear sunscreen and limiting sun exposure first and foremost, along with appropriate moisturization for your particular skin type. Besides sun-protection, using a topical retinoid, such as the scientifically advanced Skin Medica Retinol, is the next most important skin care product, having more legitimate basic science research support than any other non-sunscreen product. At the Art and Science of Dermatology we strongly believe in the power of Skin Medica scientifically-based skin care products. We have personally experienced the difference these products have made in the beauty and quality of our own skin and we love it!

HA5
Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic Acid (HA5)
Hyaluronic acid is a natural, “water-loving” substance found in the skin—acting as your body’s natural hydrator. HA holds in moisture, keeping skin healthy, resilient, and supple. With age, the amount of HA in the skin decreases, diminishing your skin’s ability to remain hydrated. Between the ages of 40-50, your skin has lost 50% of the HA it had at age 20.
HA5 supports the skin’s ability to replenish its own HA for overall skin health. HA5 has a proprietary mix of five HA forms that smooth the skin, thereby decreasing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The 5 HA’s work synergistically to provide immediate smoothing and continuous hydration throughout the day.
1 • Time Release HA — A Skinmedica® proprietary ingredient for sustained release of HA.
2 • Sodium Hyaluronate — For immediate hydration.
3 • Uncross-linked HA — For smoothness and hydration.
4 • Nano HA — Soothes skin.
5 • Cross-linked HA — Provides long-lasting hydration for up to 8 hours.
Moisturization vs. Hydration. Moisturization is the process of skin feeling hydrated, while hydration increases the water level in skin, and it’s the addition of water that helps to combat signs of aging.
The concept of BIOHYDRATION was developed in association with the research supporting the development of HA5, wherein the benefits of epidermal HA levels are not limited to increased water-binding capacity but also include promoting and restoring epidermal homeostasis and controlling inflammation.

Magic Mitt
Magic Mitt
Magic Mitt
Magic Mitt™ quickly and completely removes makeup using NO cleanser.
- A knitted micro-fiber cleansing cloth that quickly and completely removes makeup using water only.
- Promotes the health of the skin because it does not affect the acid mantle. When this beneficial barrier is intact, it aids the skin in protecting itself from harmful and invasive bacteria.
- Made from a new generation of specially knitted micro-fibers many times thinner than a human hair and which are able to penetrate oil films.
- This hydro-mechanical process breaks the surface tension of the oils that bond makeup to the skin while the fibers gently exfoliate.
- The combination of warm water and micro-fibers turn the makeup into an emulsion that is easily swept away by the mitt. It will even remove mascara!
