Macrene Actives, a skincare brand founded by dermatologist and scientist Dr. Macrene Alexiades MD, PhD. FAAD, has announced the return of its High Performance Face Cream Extra Rich.
The one-step plant-based skincare solution is the latest addition to the Macrene Actives skincare line. High Performance Face Cream Extra Rich delivers hydration that is ideal for nighttime or post-procedure needs. Designed to hydrate and firm, each jar contains over 50 active ingredients with patented technology that ensures all its high-performance ingredients stay fresher longer, according to the brand.
Raw and Natural Ingredients
The High Performance Face Cream Extra Rich is clinically proven to diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, brown spots and redness and provide antioxidant protection and skin health support. Dr. Alexiades’ approach of microencapsulation – which organizes high-quality ingredients to be delivered directly to the most needed areas – uses powerful plant-derived actives like red algae and resveratrol from wild grapes to protect the telomeres, which govern cell health and reproduction. The result is longevity for skin, per the brand.
“Our High Performance Face Cream Extra Rich does wonders for the skin as we scientifically devised it to be free from petrolatum, mineral oil or wax, which are notoriously harmful to the skin,” said Dr. Macrene Alexiades, founder & CEO. “The product is a true testament of how the right products, that include natural and raw ingredients, are capable of delivering optimal skin benefits and minimizes the need for aesthetic procedures to maintain nourished and healthy skin.”
Dr. Alexiades grows many of the actives on her Hudson Valley farm and tests in her own lab. The company is dedicated to ethical sourcing, sustainable manufacturing, and rigorous third-party testing.
New Spas Come To The Big Apple
In addition to the High Performance Face Cream Extra Rich, Macrene Actives is expanding its presence beyond its product line by debuting two new spas in New York City’s Upper East Side and the Wainscott area of the Hamptons. Each treatment is customized to suit all skin types and conditions by exclusively using the brand’s dermatological-grade products and using innovative equipment, such as LED light therapy, radiofrequency and microcurrent technology to provide antioxidant support and fortify the moisture barrier in one session, per brand officials.
Macrene Actives’ High Performance Face Cream Extra Rich is available for purchase online at macreneactives.com. Select products can also be purchased at Net-a-Porter, Cos Bar, Sephora.com, Saks, Neiman Marcus, Goop, Violet Grey and Moda Operandi.
