Alpha- and beta-hydroxy acids can help diminish signs of aging, such as the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and uneven skin tone. Serum Intensive provides a powerful hydroxy complex with pure, derma-available vitamin C to visibly refine and retexture the skin's surface. Serum Intensive'S alpha-hydroxy acids - glycolic acid, lactic acid, malic acid, and tartaric acid--act as strong exfoliators and humectants. Beta-hydroxy acid - in the form of salicylic acid - works to reduce the appearance of fine lines, and also acts as a powerful exfoliant.
Serum Intensive contains plant extracts to rejuvenate the skin, including whole-grape extract to provide powerful protection; echinacea and centella asiatica to refine; and licorice to brighten and soothe.
Both Serum Intensive and Perfecting Essence include vitamins C, and E, soybean protein, and nutrient-rich green tea extract. Although you will see and feel incredible results within days of using them, these two topicals are specifically intended to deliver maximum benefit over time.
Directions
After toning, smooth this treatment elixir onto clean face and neck. Individuals with sensitive skin should only use in the evening until skin adjusts. At that time, it should be used twice a day if well tolerated.
Having received the powerful renewal and refining compounds of Serum Intensive, the skin is now ready for a nourishing, moisturization treatment.
Perfecting Essence
USANA Perfecting Essence focuses on enhanced exfoliation and provides long-term refinement for the skin. This illuminating facial treatment reduces multiple signs of aging through exclusive Dermal Surface Renewal (DSR) technology - a marine-source, age-defying complex enhanced with MMP inhibitors. DSR technology is clinically proven to visibly brighten and even the skin's surface. It helps reduce existing signs of aging. Perfecting Essence is also free of alpha-hydroxy acids, so it is gentle enough for sensitive skin.
The glucosamine HCL found in Perfecting Essence brings a combination of amino acids and an active humectant to form an extremely important skin-tissue building block while yeast, and algae extracts provide soothing moisturization.

Rice Bran Polisher
As skin ages, surface skin renews itself less often, leaving behind dry, flaky skin. Dead skin cells can dull the complexion, inhibit moisture absorption, and even cause breakouts. Regular exfoliation can help remove this layer of cells and maintain a youthful appearance. Your daily regimen will remove most of them, but, periodically, it needs a boost. Rice Bran Polisher is a gentle, deep-cleaning exfoliant that reveals more luminous skin.
Papain, a natural fruit enzyme, breaks down the bonds among keratin cells, which are then loosened by rice-bran beadlets. The loose cells bond to oat flour and rice-bran wax and are washed away as the softer, smoother skin below is revealed. During the exfoliating process, Rice Bran Polisher delivers additional moisture and nourishment to the skin with pure-plant extracts. Saponaria and yucca provide natural cleansing properties, while aloe helps restore the skin's pH balance. Whole-grape and green tea extracts offer powerful protection.
Directions:
Use after Gentle Daily Cleanser two to three times per week. Apply a small amount of this exfoliating créme to moist skin and work in a gentle, circular motion with wet fingertips. Rinse with warm water.

When polishing is completed, the skin should be soft, radiant, and open to the additional nutrients found in USANA's Sensé's Nutritious Créme Masque.
Night Renewal Cream
The body has an internal clock, called the circadian system, that functions according to its exposure to light and dark, and synchronizes the body's activities accordingly. During deep sleep, the body goes to work refilling depleted stores of energy and undoing the damage of daily stress. This presents an ideal time to introduce skin care products.
Night Renewal Cream works overnight to deliver powerful moisturizers when the skin can benefit from it most. Firming botanicals and emollients work to increase moisture levels and combat the effects of daily exposure to the environment. Night Renewal also contains soy protein--rich in vitamins A and E, zinc, and isoflavones--to help rejuvenate the skin's appearance.
Night Renewal also contains Dermal Surface Renewal (DSR) technology, a marine-source complex, which visibly reduces existing signs of aging as it refines the skin.
Night Renewal provides additional nourishment and moisture to the skin with rich plant extracts. Echinacea and centella asiatica provide natural skin brightening and firming benefits, while whole grape, and green tea provide free-radical protection. Finally, Irish moss, shea butter, and mallow deliver powerful, skin-softening moisture.
Directions:
Apply this emulsion to face and neck in gentle, light, upward strokes.

The highly restorative constituents found in Night Renewal continue their work until the morning cleansing.
Daytime Protective Emulsion
Daytime Protective Emulsion contains Regenisomes, an advanced complex that quickly restores the skin's appearance. Glycerin, oryzanol, diisopropyl dimer dilinoleate, and squalane provide nourishing hydration.
USANA's Daytime Protective Emulsion contains many hydrating plant extracts, including aloe to deliver concentrated moisture; Echinacea and centella asiatica to firm the skin's appearance; Irish moss and soybean protein to act as skin-softening agents.
Directions:

Sense Hydrating Toner
Toning is essential for eliminating the lingering residues that are not always removed by routine cleansing. HYDRATING TONER is a non-drying, revitalizing skin tonic that prepares skin to be moisturized. After use, the skin is left hydrated.
Polysorbate 20 removes lingering surface impurities and, along with yucca and saponin-based soapwort extract, completes the cleansing process. Tocopherols, Sodium PCA, and proline bring powerful moisturizing properties. Allantoin soothes the skin. Whole-grape extract provides the skin with vitamins A, C, and E.
Directions:
After cleansing, shake toner into hand or saturate a cotton pad, then wipe over face and neck. Use in the morning and evening.
After toning, the skin should be fully cleansed and prepared for one of Sensé's powerful refining treatments: Perfecting Essence or Serum Intensive.

Gentle Daily Cleanser
Proper cleansing is the foundation of any skin-care regimen, so it is essential to use a cleanser that is effective, yet mild enough for everyday use. Gentle Daily Cleanser is a moisture-rich, non-drying formula that washes away impurities without irritation, helps counteract environmental effects, and supports optimal hydration. The soap-free formula will not disrupt the healthy acid mantle of the skin with excessive pH levels.
Fatty acid-rich sucrose cocoate, yucca extract, and soapwort bark extract cleanse with minimal disruption to the skin while vegetable-based glycerins and PEG-7 glyceryl cocoate reduce surface tension on the skin so impurities are easily rinsed away. Green tea leaf extract soothes. Clary sage extracts draw pores together as soybean protein and aloe hydrate. Skin is deeply nourished by vitamin C, A, and E variants, including Usana patented Proflavanol-T and Proteo-C.
Directions:
Work this moisture-rich cleansing gel into dry skin in a circular motion over face and neck. Add water and continue cleansing. Rinse thoroughly with warm water. Use in the morning and evening.
At the completion of the cleansing process, skin is prepared for the next step in the ultimate Sensé regimen - toning with Hydrating Toner.

Sensé Skin Care Topical Nutrition Technology
From a leader in cellular nutrition come Proflavanol-T and Proteo-C, two advanced oxidative-defence complexes that are rich with vital nutrients to provide powerful beauty therapy for healthy skin and hair. When blended with select natural emollients and pure-plant extracts, these proprietary nutrient complexes amplify the overall effectiveness of every Sensé personal care product - An advanced beauty solution for our modern world.
How does Proflavanol-T and Proteo-C work
It is estimated that up to 90 per cent of the premature aging we see on our skin is caused by free-radical damage from the sun, stress, pollution, and other toxins in the environment. Proflavanol-T and Proteo-C are your best defense against the environmental factors that cause the appearance of premature lines and wrinkles.
Proflavanol-T
This breakthrough, topical-flavonoid complex provides optimal nutrition for hair and skin cells. Concentrated whole-grape extract, rice-derived gamma oryzanol, and green tea are powerful antioxidants that shield and protect skin from free radicals, while tocopherols moisturize, protect, and maintain the integrity of essential skin lipids.
Proteo-C
The crucial role that vitamin C plays in cell health and collagen synthesis has been known for decades. The extraordinary power of Proteo-C lies in its ability to impart the benefits of vitamin C in a stable form that can be applied directly to the skin. Water-soluble and lipid-soluble forms of vitamin C combine to counteract the appearance of lines and wrinkles caused by free radicals and help skin look younger and brighter. Proline and glycine act like "moisture magnets" to help diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
The intelligent way to care for your skin every day is with Sensé's proprietary topical complexes--the right nutrients for perfectly balanced, younger-looking skin.

Sensé Skin Care DSR Technology
USANA's exclusive anti-aging complex, Dermal Surface Renewal (DSR) technology, can help you turn back the clock. Now more powerful than ever, DSR works in two ways--to help reduce the appearance of existing signs of aging today and to help prevent the appearance of new lines and wrinkles in the future.
There's no need for injections, chemical peels, or cosmetic surgery. Now you can see dramatic results without taking drastic measures. DSR is an incredibly effective anti-aging technology, and only Sensé has it.
How DSR technology works
As the skin ages, lines and wrinkles begin to form as the natural cell-renewal process slows down. The skin starts to thin and sag as collagen and elastin break down, and the skin tone can become uneven and blotchy. DSR is an extraordinary, acid-free formulation that can visibly refine the complexion, leaving your skin looking healthy, youthful, and beautiful.
Reduce Past Signs of Aging
The skin contains natural enzymes, or MMPs, that break down the extracellular matrix--proteins that keep skin looking youthful--leading to lines and wrinkles. These MMPs become more active as the skin ages. DSR contains MMP inhibitors that reduce the activity of these enzymes to help slow the appearance of premature aging.

- The appearance of lines and wrinkles is reduced. Marine-source ingredients work quickly to penetrate deep into the skin, plumping lines and wrinkles, and making skin look years younger.
- Skin looks and feels smoother and firmer. DSR blended with other natural ingredients helps boost the skin's firmness and elasticity. It is clinically proven to increase firmness from deep within the skin.
- Skin is rejuvenated. Unique complex energizes the skin to keep it looking smooth, hydrated, and supple.
- Complexion is bright and even. The acid-free formulation does not irritate the skin, keeping it soothed and calm, while skin brighteners counteract hyper-pigmentation, blotchiness, and mottled texture for a healthy, vital appearance.

Sense Skin Care Self Preserving Technology
Inspired by Dr. Myron Wentz' dedication to living a toxin-free lifestyle, Sensé scientists worked to find an alternative to parabens and other traditional chemical preservatives used in personal-care products. After nearly ten years of research, they found the answer in a unique, patent-pending formulation that keeps every Sensé product fresh without the need for added harsh chemical preservatives.
How does self-preserving technology work?
Multiple hurdles significantly limit or even eliminate microbial activity and subsequent spoiling. With self-preserving technology, the product is the preservative. The six pillars of self-preserving technology - water and pH control, dual-use of ingredients, patent-pending liquid crystal technology, and scrupulous packaging and manufacturing - are combined to become the preservative system.

The six pillars of self-preserving technology - water and pH control, dual-use of ingredients, patent-pending liquid crystal technology, and scrupulous packaging and manufacturing - are combined to become the preservative system.
- Water availability - The amount of water in each product is bound tightly in the formula to limit availability to microorganisms.
- pH control - The pH of each formula has been carefully adjusted to remain effective for the skin, while also prohibiting microorganisms from growing.
- Dual-purpose use of ingredients All of the functional ingredients of a formula combine to become part of the preservative system. No ingredients are added exclusively to preserve the product.
- Liquid crystal technology. - Unique blends of botanical extracts, plant-derived lipids, and amino-acid derivatives form "packets" that deliver ingredients to the hair and skin while also preserving the product.
- Manufacturing - Products are manufactured in a stringently controlled clean room to ensure the safety, integrity, and purity of every Sensé product.
- Packaging - All packages are sealed to avoid contamination by consumers after purchase.
Many companies claim to have products that are free from parabens. However, many of those products contain other formaldehyde-producing chemicals, such as Quarternium 15; 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol; Diazolidinyl urea; DMDM Hydantoin; or Sodium Hydroxyglycinate. These chemicals are effective in killing anything that comes in to contact with them, so imagine what they could be doing to your skin.
Other companies claim they do not have preservatives and use minimally effective natural alternatives or simply leave their products vulnerable to contamination. These products often have a maximum shelf life of only six months and sometimes must even be kept refrigerated.
Each formula of Sensé's patent-pending, self-preserving technology has passed two rounds of vigorous "challenge testing" to ensure purity for a full two years--an unprecedented achievement in the skin-care industry.
Usana Sensé Skin Care
Sensé was developed with the knowledge that the skin reflects the state of the body's health and looks its best when all cells in the skin's layers are properly nourished and hydrated. The skin is the last organ to receive nutrients from the body, and the first to show signs of nutritional deficiency, imbalance, or illness. While some nutrients can be applied topically, others can only be produced from within the body. Therefore, true health and beauty requires a synergy of internal and external nutrition, as well as protection from environmental toxins and oxidation damage, which can accelerate sagging and wrinkling.
The Sensé beauty regimen is designed to be a comprehensive approach to skin and hair care that takes into account the nutritional of both the skin and body. Sensé's outer ingredients, which smooth, hydrate, and reduce the signs of aging, are most effective when used in conjunction with the USANA Nutritionals, which help to replenish and nourish the skin cells from the inside out.
Dr. Myron Wentz, founder and chairman of USANA Health Sciences and an expert in the field of cellular nutrition, recommends the following nutritional supplements to further enhance the dramatic results you will experience with Sense Skin Care products:
HealthPak 100 - Like every organ in your body, your skin requires adequate nutrition to function properly. Nutrients that enhance overall body health will also promote healthy skin and hair. HealthPak 100 provides advanced levels of essential vitamins, minerals, and co-factors in convenient morning and evening packets for a difference you will see and feel.
BiOmega or OptOmega - Essential fatty acids are a basic building block for healthy skin and hair. BiOmega or Optomega provide important polyunsaturated fatty acids that support smooth, hydrated skin and soft, manageable hair.
Fibergy Plus - Fiber is an important element in maintaining healthy skin because it helps maintain overall body health. Fibergy is a great-tasting, low-glycemic drink mix that provides more than twice the amount of fiber when compared with other products.
