Created to combat the visible signs of ageing, Comfort Zone’s latest range revamp is based on the company’s pioneering research into cutaneous cellular longevity

Comfort Zone’s powerful approach to skin health and beauty through the new Skin Regimen/Lx is backed by more than a decade of scientific research into the primary factors that cause skin to age prematurely.
Since 2012, the research laboratories at Italian B Corp product house Comfort Zone have been at the forefront of studying the impact and response to environmental and biological stressors, such as UV radiation, urban pollution and the hormone cortisol, which can lead to cutaneous skin problems such as dullness, dryness and premature wrinkles.
Skin Regimen/Lx combines high-tech ingredients with Comfort Zone’s proprietary Longevity Complex which has been enhanced with the inclusion of a powerful antioxidant – an extract from myrtle – which is harvested from the Italian countryside, where it’s grown according to Comfort Zone’s regenerative organic agricultural practices.
The efficacy of the Longevity Complex has been rigorously tested with innovative, advanced in vitro tests* by an independent laboratory monitoring the behaviour of fibroblast dermal cells when interacting with this exclusive synergy of organic botanical extracts and carnosine.
Cells aged 20, 35, and 50 years were exposed to UV radiation, urban pollution and cortisol, with the enzyme ß-galactosidase serving as a key longevity marker.
Results show the Longevity Complex significantly mitigates the ageing effects of common everyday stressors, delaying the speed of the ageing process by as much as 80 per cent*.
Clinically tested three-step routine These findings have been further supported by independent clinical and dermatological testing of the three ‘Hero Products’, namely the Skin Regimen/Lx Detox Cleanser, the Ha4 Jelly Serum, and the Tripeptide Gel Cream which are designed to work together.
The Detox Cleanser effectively cleanses away impurities and pollution. The HA4 Jelly Serum deeply hydrates and revitalises the skin, while the Tripeptide Gel Cream firms and enhances skin tone.
After the four-week test period, users reported experiencing a comprehensive improvement in several key areas of age-related skin problems. The 40 test subjects reported better skin hydration, increased skin firmness and elasticity, improved smoothness and luminosity, with instrumental tests confirming a 15.5 per cent reduction in wrinkle depth.
The three-step routine – detox, power, treat – can be further customised by selecting additional concentrated formulas from the complete range, which features cleaners, masks, serums, vials, moisturisers and must-have urban SPF.
Pro Longevity facials Skin Regimen/Lx professional longevity facials are available at Comfort Zone partner spas and pharmacies, combining highly concentrated proprietary lifting peels, masks and serums with intensive massage techniques and innovative tools that support re-oxygenation and muscle repositioning.
The new Longevity Vitaminic with vitamin C mask encourages collagen production and glow; the Longevity Peel deeply renews and firms and the Longevity Detox ensures deep purification, thanks to charcoal and clays.
As with all Comfort Zone’s products, formulas are vegan, with an all-natural fragrance, fully recyclable packaging and carbon-neutral status.
