The Ultra-Rich Intensive Moisturizer by Eighth Day, developed by dermatologic surgeon Dr. Antony Nakhla, is touted as a skincare innovation "where biotech meets clinical volume restoration." This fragrance-free moisturizer is ideal for those with dry and mature skin, as well as GLP-1 users experiencing facial volume loss as a result of treatment.
Some of the key components of this indulgent moisturizer include proprietary, patent-pending Peptide-rich Plasma—24 bioidentical peptides, amino acids, and growth factors that mimic the skin’s inherent renewing abilities—VolumatrixSubQ to support lipid renewal and promote collagen production, and a mix of low, medium, and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid to address multiple layers of skin.
As GLP-1 usage rises, skincare brands have a unique opportunity to develop targeted solutions addressing facial volume loss and skin laxity commonly experienced after rapid weight loss.
