Make Mom’s Mother’s Day a Real Gem:
Give Mom the Gift of GREAT SKIN with FACTORFIVE!
A couple of months ago I was offered the chance to try a new skincare line called FACTORFIVE. I was very curious about it because the key elements are STEM CELLS.
I have used a couple of other stem cell-based skincare lines and I liked what I tried, but I only got a piece or two of the line, never the complete line. It’s hard to evaluate a line if you don’t get to try the most important pieces in the line.
DISCLOSURE:
I was provided products for me to “test drive”. There is no way I would put a lot of effort or time into an article about a product that I have never tried. Skincare is one of the key product categories that really requires TESTING rather than just a swipe of a lipstick or eyeshadow. It’s important for me to be able to tell you about the line and also tell you what I think about it. The products I got to test were exactly that- TESTERS! I was testing them, and they “informed”/educated me about what the buzz is all about. the buzz isn’t just a buzz. This brand delivers!
FACTORFIVE is a beyond cutting edge brand. It’s so different from most other lines in this Stem Cell/High Tech category.
When I was offered FACTORFIVE, I was very curious and also skeptical. The line is out of Silicon Valley and it’s more technical in the product development and presentation than it is pretty and” foo-foo”. ( What I mean by the “foo-foo” which is a pretty product that’s very girly but doesn’t really deliver).
What is FACTORFIVE Skincare?
At its core, FACTORFIVE humanizes aging. Backed by years of scientific research, our award-winning skincare company seeks to redefine how we, as a society, look at aging. Powered by ethically derived human stem cells, FACTORFIVE works harmoniously with your own skin to replenish growth factors that naturally deplete as we age. Rather than hype, FACTORFIVE relies on innovation.
Patent-pending FACTORFIVE skincare is revolutionary because it uses the body’s own building blocks to restore skin on the cellular level thereby reducing signs of aging. The human stem cell growth factors in FACTORFIVE work like a lock and key with an individual’s own skin cell receptors, promoting an increase in collagen, hyaluronic acid, elastin, and other beneficial skin proteins.
FACTORFIVE scientists work with the most active producers of growth factors in the human body, adult stem cells (ASCs). Through our process of growing and working with ASCs, we put them in an environment that gets them “speaking” by sending out a tremendous amount of growth factor signaling. We then collect those powerful growth factor signals and include them as the main active ingredient in all our products so that when you apply FACTORFIVE to your skin, it replenishes your diminished supply and enables your cells to “listen” and restart those important skin health processes. This represents a 100% natural and biological way for your skin to return to vibrant health.
The key elements of FACTOR FIVE are:
CRUELTY-FREE CELL CULTURE —Most labs use Fetal Bovine Serum(FBS) in their cultures. FACTORFIVE does not.
ALL NATURAL FORMULA— Free from parabens, mineral oil, sulfate, detergents, phthalates, urea, DEA, or TEA.
ETHICAL, ADIPOSE STEM CELLS — Ethically sourced & proved to be the most effective for skin types, including mature.
MADE IN THE USA– Cultivated, created, manufactured, and lab-tested in the US.
This last one is really unusual for a lot of skincare lines because it is entirely done in the US- NO foreign outsourcing!
FACTORFIVE’s cell culture specialist Payton Laurie talks about the different types of stem cells, and what kinds of stem cells FACTORFIVE uses.
If you visit the FACTORFIVE Youtube page, you can see a slew of videos with Payton Laurie that will explain the sequencing and the research the brand has done.
FACTORFIVE consists of 3 main products/treatments.
Serum (Step 1)
FACTORFIVE scientists have developed a powerful regenerative serum to nourish the skin and help promote healthy cellular activity. Composed of concentrated human stem cell growth factors and copper peptides, the effective formula deviates from traditional methods of anti-aging skincare and targets the 5 signs of aging: wrinkles, sun spots, tightness, thickness, texture, and more.
The FACTORFIVE glow—our serum is known for giving you a more hydrated and youthful appearance.
Formulated with humanity in mind—without parabens, mineral oil, sulfate detergents, phthalates, urea, DEA or TEA—and not tested on animals.

My take on this product is that it WORKS. I can’t believe how little I have to use to soothe and boost my skin texture and the look of it.
Eye and Lash Treatment (Step 2)
A powerhouse 3-in-1 cream that helps to replenish the eye area while safely enhancing your lashes and brows. Our do-it-all formula combines human stem cell-derived growth factors with biotin and redensyl to save you valuable time on your skincare routine.

Anti-Aging Cream: (Step 3)
FACTORFIVE anti-aging cream combines powerful human stem cell factors with a comprehensive array of moisturizing ingredients. Suitable for all skin tones, the hydrating formula visibly improves the signs of aging.
The cream is the final step of this unique line. It absorbs quickly and it hydrates your skin without it feeling sticky or gummy.
REVIEW:
I have had the opportunity to try each one. I have been surprised by how well they work individually as well as collectively. The FACTORFIVE skincare line is synergistic in the way that I haven’t seen in a long time.
It might sound weird to share a skincare review now.. right before Mother’s Day. To me, it’s perfect timing because this line is a great gift for mom. You can treat her to either full-size products or minis of this 3 part skincare collection. Yes, it’s ONLY 3 products that you use. But the products deliver in such a way that they are very efficient for you to use. There is no complicated approach to using them. You apply the serum first, then the eye & lash cream, and then the cream. Talk about fast, easy, and extremely portable. You don’t need to have tons of other skincare products. You have all the anti-aging products you need in this 3 part line! Skip the 10 step skincare regimen and go for this. Those 10 step products (even if you step down or eliminate a couple of steps) take up a lot of time. The FACTORFIVE while rather pricy, you get serious skincare that delivers what it promises with consistent usage because FACTORFIVE is cutting edge innovation!
Skincare is NOT a one-size-fits-all situation, but this is one brand that I would recommend to a larger percentage of my friends and colleagues to try out than I would on most brands.
Can you tell I am impressed? I really am! I would love to get a tour through their facility just to see the steps on how the brand creates each product.
