Creator of medical-quality cosmeceuticals, the Kara Vita organization is proud to offer the Up Tight system -- dramatic skin care designed to transform and strengthen skin with a 45% concentration of peptides and other bioactive ingredients. Peptides are the building blocks of protein that stimulate natural skin rebuilding processes without irritating the skin, dramatically improving skin concerns like expression lines and wrinkles. Select bioactives work with these peptides, providing additional firming and tightening. Up Tight is a two-piece collection. In the morning, users apply an A.M. complex that provides instant tightening and long-term effects, firming sagging skin and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. A P.M. firming recovery cream helps repair skin's connective tissue to dramatically lift up face and neck tissue. Both are powered by Lyphazome(R) all-natural patented nanotechnology and combined with peptides and bioactives that improve skin's hydration and precisely align time-released ingredients within the skin's matrix. Kara Vita stands behind the Up Tight system, guaranteeing firmer, brighter, and younger-looking skin in just 14 days. 2008-05-07
