It’s the time of year to be looking your best as we celebrate the holidays with our friends and family. A month packed with dinners, parties, and office celebrations – a good reason to try out some products to give us that extra boost of radiance and hydration. Just in time for the holiday rush, offering us plenty of solutions for dull winter skin, Peter Thomas Roth invited journalists and beauty writers to his Holiday Party at his beautiful townhouse on the Upper East Side to discover the latest and greatest additions to his amazing skin care collecions. One of my favorite brands, Peter Thomas Roth, presents great options, especially for Asian skin with his brightening, anti-aging, and hydrating products that feature top of the line ingredients combining botanicals with effective and unique formulations.
Peter Thomas Roth offers a comprehensive range of over 100 products sold world-wide, and has been consistently growing and becoming well recognized and a favorite in Asia. What distinguishes this brand among others is that they perfectly combine natural ingredients with high-tech innovations and scientifically proven ingredients to maximize natures best and help us get that flawless smooth skin.
The Peter Thomas Roth brand philosophy focuses on breakthrough formulas with an emphasis on effective active ingredients. They prove true to this by ensuring they list these ingredients on the front of the actual product, along with the percentage of the ingredient so the customer knows exactly what they are using. Not only is Peter responsible for the product formulations but he leads all research and development efforts to deliver progressive, cutting-edge products in his own lab and production facility.
