Good Housekeeping Recognizes Mary Kay Age Fighting Products
In a typical year, Mary Kay invests significant funds and conducts more than 300,000 tests to ensure that Mary Kay products meet the highest standards of safety, quality and performance. Mary Kay scientists perform rigorous testing to assess every individual ingredient, as well as each finished product. This month and in August, Good Housekeeping recognized two Mary Kay skin care products: the TimeWise Miracle Set and TimeWise Replenishing Serum+C.
Good Housekeeping Seal
After evaluation by the experts at the Good Housekeeping Research Institute, the TimeWise Miracle Set has earned the Good Housekeeping Seal. The TimeWise Miracle Set is a powerhouse collection of age-fighting products that work together to deliver younger-looking skin for all skin types, including sensitive skin and those with Rosacea. The set offers 11 age-defying benefits to help cleanse, exfoliate, freshen, energize, hydrate, smooth, firm, soften, protect, rebuild and reduce fine lines and wrinkles in one skin care regimen.
“The TimeWise Miracle Set is a flagship product for the brand that delivers advanced age-fighting benefits to millions of women worldwide,” said Yvette Franco, Mary Kay Vice President, U.S. Marketing. “We have always prized the efficacy of the TimeWise Miracle Set and are so proud it has been granted the prestigious Good Housekeeping Seal that has been reassuring consumers about their product-purchasing decisions for more than 100 years.”
Consumers who use Mary Kay products are among the most loyal in the world because Mary Kay products are safe, effective and deliver the benefits they want. Mary Kay Inc. stands behind its products sold by Independent Beauty Consultants. If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with any Mary Kay product, it will be replaced without charge, exchanged or the full purchase price refunded following its return to your authorized Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant. If she is no longer active, it can be returned to the Company with proof of purchase.
Good Housekeeping Anti-Aging Awards
Good Housekeeping performed their first - and largest - scientific study comparing products making age-fighting claims in a dozen categories. TimeWise Replenishing Serum+C is a Good Housekeeping Anti-Aging Honorable Mention in the Best Anti-Aging Serum Category, which is featured in the October 2010 issue.
TimeWise Replenishing Serum+C is an antioxidant-rich serum formulated with ingredients that enhance the production of new collagen*, that help keep existing collagen from breaking down* and that are known to support elastin*, the protein that gives skin its “spring,” thus helping skin appear lifted and firmed, its resilience visibly improved and its complexion brightened. TimeWise Replenishing Serum+C is infused with Kakadu Plum extract, along with other natural plant extracts from around the world to create an exclusive formula to help skin appear lifted and firmed, while Vitamin C helps protect against free radical damage.
As noted in a recent official press release by Good Housekeeping: “The scientists at the Good Housekeeping Research Institute evaluated 90 products in 12 categories, conducting 3,000 lab tests and 5,600 before and after photos on 820 volunteers, ages 35 and older, over the course of 18 months. The 14 winning treatments and 12 honorable mentions received the highest rankings in lab and consumer tests and will offer readers guidance to make the smartest investments in products that actually work.”
Mary Kay Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Beth Lange beamed: “We are so proud to have TimeWise Replenishing Serum+C included in the first-annual Good Housekeeping Anti-Aging Awards. We will continue to offer our Independent Beauty Consultants and their customers the high-quality skin care products they have come to rely on.”
