Read today's blog entry about a couple of great Perricone MD products that contain both Allantoin and Beta Glucan...Two fantastic ingredients used in professional skin care and great for anti-aging as well as many other benefits.

I was wondering what allantoin was. I see it all the time on ingredients lists.

 Here's a great resource I found on www.skinstore.com all about allantoin.

 It's usually in products for sensitive skin I believe.

Is it a plant based product?

I think both plants and animals produce it.

I think most of the time it is sourced from plants though. At least I hope so!

I'm pretty sure it is sourced from plants to make beauty products.

I recently purchased Perricone MD Face Finishing Moisturizer and I absolutely love it!!!

Isn't it great?!? I recently cut my arm on my bed frame and for whatever reason I decided to put some of the cream on the scrape while it was healing cause it felt kinda dry (and I happened to be doing my face regimen so it was handy) and it seriously improved the healing overnight! I realized what a fantastic skin repair and restoration cream it truly was!!

I have only tried the oily acne products. I'll have to branch out.

 Yes. Dr. Perricone knows how to formulate super nutrients into any type of product for most any type of result or indication.
