Committed to its problem-solving roots, bareMinerals conducted a global skincare survey and discovered that 72% of women feel that despite using skincare products, their skin is not healthy, and 91% of women wish their skincare products provided long-term results. These findings—innately tied to the brand’s belief of delivering healthier alternatives—are the cornerstone of new bareMinerals SKINSORIALS skincare, a line based on the fundamental concepts of healthy looking skin and longevity.

Traditionally, skincare products have been designed to address only certain concerns or specific areas of the skin. “If you think about it, to keep your body healthy you don’t start by taking antibiotics do you?” elaborates Sandy Saputo, Chief Marketing Officer. “You eat right, exercise and take preventative measures. Shouldn’t you do the same with your skin? For us it’s about shifting the conversation from ‘anti-aging’ to a more positive message about longevity and healthy-looking skin,” says Saputo.

OKINAWA
To tackle the lofty premise of longevity, bareMinerals turned to a location where women thrive and live longer than most any other place in the world.** Okinawa—known as “the island of long life”—is where a plant was discovered growing in the mineral- and vitamin-rich coastal soil that local residents boast as an essential part of their health and enduring wellness: Long Life Herb. This resilient herb grows in the island’s harsh climate, showing its tenacious ability to thrive. A time-tested and symbolic ingredient, Long Life Herb Extract is the secret behind bareMinerals’ new hero product, SkinLongevity Vital Power Infusion.

LONG LIFE HERB
For the first time ever in skincare, bareMinerals has procured the benefits*** of their Long Life Herb Extract to empower skin and help enhance a healthy-looking radiance. Long Life Herb, also known as Chomeiso in Japanese, is a super superfood shown to have a higher vitamin and mineral content than spinach and kale. In addition to being loaded with antioxidants, the plant has high amounts of calcium, magnesium and potassium and is incredibly high in polyphenols. Legend has it that eating just one bunch of Long Life Herb will extend life by one day.

ABOUT SKINLONGEVITY VITAL POWER INFUSION

With the patented benefits*** of Long Life Herb Extract at its core, this hybrid lightweight serum essence helps to promote skin's vitality, replenishing it with moisture and reawakening the look of youth.

To help deliver on the promise of inspiring younger, healthier-looking skin, several key ingredients were hand selected for their skin-loving properties. In addition to Long Life Herb Extract, they’ve combined California Poppy and Lempuyang Ginger Extracts to create SkinMimetic^™ Technology. This leading-edge complex helps to protect skin against visible signs of aging and damage—and is what fuels SkinLongevity Vital Power Infusion to unleash a radiantly youthful appearance.
