MONTHLY FAVOURITES {JULY/AUGUST 2022}

 I have a skin care heavy favourites post for July & August and it

goes without saying that I would highly recommend each and

every one.

L-R

1.

AUGUSTINUS BADER

THE RICH CREAM

All to often "super hyped up" skin care products and this was one, 

can be somewhat of a let down, but I'm pleased to report back that

this was not.

This is a Luxury brand with a price to match and

I'm so missing this day/night cream and I would love to bring it

back into my skincare regime along with their Eye Cream.

It's a range for me to save up for along with an air ticket, as its not

available in South Africa...

SKOON 

RUBY MARINE

OVERNIGHT HYDRATING 

MASK

This was a weird one for me, as initially I wasn't a fan but after

one application my skin was.

It's like no other mask that I have ever felt or applied, 

it is different and not the "norm" in masking terms.

This thick pink buttery mask had a divine vanilla fragrance and
 sat on the skin and created a protective barrier rather than 

being absorbed into my skin, so therefore it felt quite greasy, which I 

didn't really mind, as it was an overnight product.

The next morning my skin certainly felt softer and this mask

has found a place in my "Masking" wardrobe of products.

STRIVECTIN

ANTI-WRINKLE

INTENSIVE EYE CONCENTRATE+

I've loved using Strivectin's Cult Favourite #1 wrinkle-smoothing eye cream.

It's fast-absorbing, lightweight, and layerable plus fragrance-free.

It provided me with enough moisturisation and hydration and I loved

 the needle point nozzle that really allows for complete control 

 of the amount you dispense, making this eye cream very cost effective, 

I haven't even finished my 30ml tube yet.

DERMALOGICA

BIOLUMIN-C

VITAMIN C SERUM

I have only just posted my review on this product

a couple of days ago.

This is a High-performance serum that enhances the skin’s 

natural defence system to brighten, firm and help dramatically reduce

 the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

I noticed fairly quickly how much more radiant my skin was and 

with time the texture of my skin appeared smoother.

I have thoroughly enjoyed using this Vitamin C Serum and would highly 

recommend checking it out if you looking to introduce one into your

daily routine, it's well worth the splurge...

BY TERRY

CRAYON KÔHL

TERRYBLY EYELINER

OH MY...BYTERRY certainly know how to make 

eye crayons/pencils/liners etc.

This eye pencil/eyeliner has an incredibly soft ultra-creamy texture, 

with a precision tip and glides on effortlessly with precision

 and ease.

If you've never been overly confident with eye pencil application

then I highly recommend this pencil, as it couldn't be any easier to apply.

It's a perfect softness and smudginess for the oldies to use, whilst it

doesn't pull our already stretched skin on our eyelids.

Again BY TERRY delivers another fantastic product and it's by far

the best eyeliner pencil that I've ever used

and that's saying something.

BIOLUMIN-C SERUM

BRIGHTENING VITAMIN C SERUM

This is a High-performance serum that enhances the skin’s 

natural defence system to brighten, firm and help dramatically reduce

 the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 

Powered by two potent forms of vitamin C and a wrinkle-fighting peptide, this serum makes skin appear brighter and firmer while also reducing visible 

hyper-pigmentation without causing irritation. 

Vitamin C:

 Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Lactic Acid:

 Hydrates and exfoliates.

An AHA that accelerates the removal of dull, dead skill cells.

Vitamin C Complex: 

Firms and brightens the appearance of skin.

Salvia hispanica (Chia Seed) Oil: 

A powerful antioxidant that protects skin against free-radical damage.

For complete transparency I already have fine lines and wrinkles, I don't 

suffer with any pigmentation, but I

do want to have a firmer, brighter and more radiant complexion

and this serum seems to tick all those boxes.

I recently introduced this serum into my existing skincare routine

and it fitted in perfectly.

I applied the amber coloured lightweight gel serum onto a cleansed 

and toned skin before my moisturiser/night cream both in 

the morning and evening.

It can be used on Dry/Normal/Combination & Oily skins.

They say a 30ml bottle should last approximately 5 weeks when used

twice daily, yet I found it to last me around 8 weeks.

The glass bottle has a double outer coating to protect the formula from

 light exposure, minimizing vitamin C degradation.

The pipette dropper does make for easy control of the amount 

dispensed and as with most good skincare, a little goes a long way.

Once absorbed it leaves a slight tackiness behind which is tolerable.

The only small negative is the smell, it does have that a slight herb 

 aroma, which is perhaps the Chai Seed Oil, but again it's tolerable. 

As you may, or may not be aware, I have cared for my skin

since I was 15 years old and thanks to my career, enabling me

to work with many luxury brands, my skin has been exposed

to some of the best anti-ageing products over the years,

so when I see a noticeable change in my skin I'm impressed.

This serum was one of those products that "Impressed" me.

I noticed fairly quickly how much more radiant my skin was and 

with time the texture of my skin appeared smoother.

With regards to firmness I think ongoing use would be needed

to see any changes there.

I have thoroughly enjoyed using this Vitamin C Serum and would highly 

recommend checking it out if you looking to introduce one into your

daily routine or perhaps just looking to change brands.

DERMALOGICA

 doesn't fall into everyones budget, I know, but for

those that it does, it's well worth the splurge...
