| How it works | Post-treatment or compromised skin is exceptionally delicate and needs special attention. Damaged skin often has an impaired natural barrier. This means it is unable to defend against the environment and can lose hydration quickly. Ultimate Recovery combines repairing actives to help restore weakened skin barriers. Perfluorodecalin helps to increase the levels of oxygen in the skin, which are vital for promoting skin’s natural healing capabilities. Beta-Glucan comforts inflamed, sore skin by bringing down redness, while arnica helps to stimulate the immune system to ease bruising and condition the skin. Silk serica stimulates the renewal cycle of the skin to help restore its natural barrier against impurities. Meanwhile, Ultimate Recovery restores hydration levels to provide the ideal moisture environment for healing. |

| Featured Story | The rare Arnica montana is a bright yellow aromatic wildflower that grows in mountainous regions of Europe. It is often referred to as leopard's bane. In folklore, humans discovered the power of arnica when they spotted mountain goats seeking out the arnica plant whenever they injured themselves after falling. Historically used as a natural remedy for bruising and sore muscles, arnica lends its anti-inflammatory properties to relieving sore skin. |
