With her devoted facial clientele -- many of whom confess to using Sonya Dakar facial products on their bodies for the same glowing effects -- as her muse, Sonya Dakar created BODY by Sonya Dakar as an equally superior grade botanical-based skin care collection infused with advanced anti-aging ingredients that will provide the same coveted benefits for the body that her other lines provide for the face.

"In essence, I don't treat the face. I treat the skin," explains Sonya Dakar, whose skin care treatments and products have been nourishing, brightening and perfecting famous faces for more than 30 years. When getting her A-list clients red-carpet-ready at the Sonya Dakar Skin Clinic, Dakar notes that she always "opens the robe" and treats the soon-to-be exposed décolletage and other body skin with the same prominence as the face. "Every part of the body gives away age. Taking care of the entire body and making it part of your skin care program is key."

Employing her philosophy of Total Skin Fitness™, the new BODY by Sonya Dakar collection features six products designed to work together regularly to provide a complete skin revitalization with long-lasting results: Daily Wash, Triple Action Vita-foliant Omega Hydrator, Mineral Polish, Nourishing Body Oil and the professional-use-only Skin Fitness Pro-Peel.

Exceptional botanical face-grade ingredients featured in the line include walnut shell and bamboo stem powders; sweet almond, linseed, flax seed and sunflower seed oils; Secrets of Pomme and Secrets of Acerola -- all natural and rich anti-oxidant, reparative and strengthening elements. The exotic citrus Cara Cara and Verbena Cypress, both abundant in vitamins C, B5 and E, are the two ambrosial fragrances of the collection.

The dynamic starlettes of the BODY by Sonya Dakar collection are its enriching, melt-on-the-skin Organic Omega essential oils. Sonya's unique and luxurious blend of face and food-grade organic omega oils are packed with vital nutrients for healthy skin as well as distinctive hydrating, softening, brightening and age-defying properties that infuse the body with a youthful glow and protect against future damage.

BODY by Sonya Dakar launches with the anti-aging collection and will expand to include several lines focusing on acne, pigmentation and other categories of problematic skin. Each line will encompass Sonya Dakar's renowned Beauty Boot Camp™ approach to nurturing the skin and will offer a full regimen of body care.

"The same problems people have on their faces, they have on their bodies," says Dakar "My new body collection takes its inspiration from the Sonya Dakar facial collections and provides, with many of the same active ingredients, equally illuminating results for the entire body."
