The A•R•T of Orchids

Nov 2nd, 2012 | Category: Young Living Product Blog

The AŸ•RŸ•T ® Beauty Masque and Renewal Serum were two of the ground-breaking products launched at the Young Living International Grand Convention in June. Their most distinctive feature, orchid extract, is currently at the height of research in Taiwan and is hailed for its moisturizing properties.* Traditionally, orchids have been used in perfume by the Chinese and have been associated with purity and longevity.*

The Beauty Masque and Renewal Serum also contain herbs and botanicals commonly used in Chinese medicine for supporting skin health and beauty. They include Eucommia ulmoides extract, Polygonum cuspidatum root (Japanese knotweed), and Tremella fuciformis. Eucommia and have been historically used to support the skin’s elasticity, to moisturize, and to provide resveratrol.*

Most importantly, these products are enhanced with the natural benefits of essential oils! Infused with Young Living’s Stress Away™ blend, the Beauty Masque encourages you to relax* and enjoy your own home-spa experience. The Renewal Serum contains Sensation™ essential oil blend for a delightfully calming aroma.*

The AŸ•RŸ•T Beauty Masque uses a unique cloth mask to effectively deliver moisturizing ingredients to all areas of the face. Little known in the United States, this application process is very popular in Asia. Simply apply and relax as active ingredients continuously dispense while you wear the mask. It is recommended that you leave the mask on for 20 minutes twice weekly for optimal results.

The AŸ•RŸ•T Renewal Serum is designed for everyday use, twice daily, morning and night. After cleansing with the AŸ•RŸ•T Gentle Foaming Cleanser, apply one pump of serum to the face, neck, décolletage (between waist and neck), hands, or other areas requiring application. The serum’s low molecular weight ingredients allow faster and deeper penetration into the skin and contain more concentrated active ingredients than creams or lotions. Follow up with the AŸ•RŸ•T Day Activator or Night Reconstructor.

Orchid facts:

  • The orchid extract in the new AŸ•RŸ•T products is from the species Phalaenopsis amabilis, also called the Moon Orchid.
  • Vanilla is a member of the orchid family.
