Lots of new skincare lines are emerging with new ingredients, technology and even a “green” spin mixed in as well. These new lines are pretty spiffy– and while I would never tell you that they are “one size fits all” in skincare, these lines are great for skin that wants/needs help
Mention the name Dr. Ron Moy to any dermatologist and they will recognize the name of a leading researcher in skincare and skin cancer at UCLA School of Medicine as well as the President of the American Academy of Dermatology. This is “the man” to ask about how to protect your skin from sun damage.
Recently Dr. Moy launched his own line of skincare that is one of the most cutting edge, ground-breaking lines I have ever seen (*and I have seen a ton of lines) that will make a serious difference in the condition in your skin in terms of the texture, look and condition.
DNAEGF Renewal Skincare
The key factors in this skincare line are DNA & EGF
DNA Repair Enzymes
Active DNA Repair Enzymes in Dr. Moy’s protocol support the proliferation of fresh, young skin cells and encourage the recognition and elimination of DNA damage.
•Engineered from marine and botanical sources
•Offers optimal levels with a trio of powerful enzymes
Barley Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)
Discovered in Iceland at a state-of-the-art biotech firm renowned for its medical and scientific research,
the first and only PLANT-BASED Epidermal Growth Factor is created.
•Based on a patented technology
•EGF is bio-engineered from barley grown in pure Icelandic waters and natural volcanic pumice soil
•Exceptional integrity, quality, and stability
•Stable, potent and effective EGF
Interview with Dr. Ron Moy
A) This seems like a skincare evolutionary leap a la Perricone & Murad back about 15 years ago?
Dr. Moy:
DNAEGF Renewal is an revolutionary leap with sound scientific studies proving the value of these skin care products with the essential DNA enzymes.
I published one of the first articles on glycolic acid with Dr. Howard Murad, but I did not fully believe that glycolic acid was fully effective. This DNAEGFRenewal Collection currently contains the most advanced ingredients in treating sun damaged skin.
B) How long did it take you to isolate the DNA EGF factors and figure out which ones were the most effective?
Dr. Moy
DNA enzymes are isolated from plankton and bacteria and are bio-engineered. EGF is bio-engineered from Icelandic barley. The DNA enzymes were isolated more than 15 years ago. EGF is bio-engineered only several years ago.
C) How long before someone would see noticeable results. Let’s take an average So. Cal woman who uses reasonable skincare and sunblock (but perhaps not enough) at age 45.. with some sun damage?
Dr. Moy
Max. results cannot be achieved until 16wks. This is a realistic timeline. Everyone wants instant results, but realistically, it takes time for the skin to be “repaired” to show visible improvement. People using the EGF serum can see dramatic results in their pores and their skin tone will improve.
D) What makes the DNAEGF Renewal sunblock so different?
Dr. Moy
It has the highest level of UVA & UVB sun block and protection. The new sunscreen rating will comprise of a system which will be introduced by the FDA fairly soon. DNAEGF Defense provides the highest level of sun protection possible.
E) Why is it that anti-oxidants don’t seem to be so effective topically? Is it better to take them internally for effect on total body as opposed for topical effect on skin?
Dr. Moy
The only anti-oxidants which are effective are the ones consumed: fruits and vegetables. Both the topical and oral anti-oxidant supplements have been proven to be ineffective in many anti-aging and cancer studies
F) As an avid sunblock user, despite the numbers on the tubes — even when I layer them on… why don’t they really protect my skin so much? (I have anecdotal evidence from a trip to a lake last summer)
Dr. Moy
It could be the sunscreen is wiped off by clothing or perspiration. I just had a patient who used DNA sun block during a tropical luxury vacation spot. She spent all day in the intense sunshine and didn’t receive any sunburns during her entire vacation.
G) What about the sun damage on the rest of the body? Can this same sunblock be used there? What about the other products to help treat those issues?
Dr. Moy
Both DNA Intensive Renewal, Night Renewal, Defense 30+++ can be used all over the body
.
H) You focused on hands which is hot topic right now. Would this be effective on forearms as well?
Dr. Moy
Yes, EGF serum will thicken the skin on hands. DNA Intensive and Night Renewal will repair the skin on the hands and forearms too.
Thankyou to Dr. Ron Moy for his time in answering these questions.

While I was unable to attend the party shown in the video, I did get to try 3 products:
The Renewal Foaming Cleanser which was a lovely light foamy puff that gently cleaned the skin of makeup and dirt and prepped it for treatment products. One puff went a long ways!!
DNA Intensive Renewal was a great treatment for the day and it was noticeable within a couple of week that my skin was changing texture. I had a small sample so it wasn’t the 16 weeks that Dr. Moy talks about but it was enough to think seriously about buying this product because this was great.
DNA Defense SPF 30+ is the most awesome sunblock I have ever tried– and if you go back into my youtube channel you will see I did a serious review on several sunblocks last year. If you have followed me for a long time, you will know if there’s a sunblock out there, I have tried it. This one doesn’t pill up. It goes on smoothly and sinks in nicely. There is no whitening effect due to physical sunblock because of micronization. This is one amazing sunblock. I love it!! (too bad it’s all gone. I got a small tube and I nursed it along)
I can’t comment on any of the other products because I was not provided any samples. However the technology and the ingredients that I experienced assure me that this is a terrifically effective line that will make a difference for EVERYONE. This isn’t nearly as pricey as some lines where one single product costs $600 — and this entire product line is significantly less than that!!
This is one of those lines you need to test drive– you will really see a difference.
Here’s a great incentive for you to try the line. Purchase one DNA Intensive Renewal and get one full size DNA Defense SPF 30+ absolutely FREE!!!
