Looking at the newest members of my skincare routine – and what they actually do?
Last week I spoke about my consultation with the amazing Jennifer Rock, The Skin Nerd, the issues I am having with my skin, and how she is fixing them with Image skincare products.
Since last week I’m not going to lie, my sleeping has been down, my coffee intake is up and I am fighting a cold like crazy so as my darling boyfriend told me on Friday night -”Your Skin Looks Like S**T” – Safe to say I threw a not so impressed face back at him – but he has a point. All the products in the world can feed your skin, but as Jennifer preach’s – you have to feed it from within – and I certainly have not done that.
This week I am vowing, from tomorrow!, to go on Jennifer’s recommendations to give up dairy and gluten as it would appear I have a mild reaction to the former, and really up my water intake.
There is no point in using these amazing products if my lifestyle is battling them! Check in next week to actually see if this worked! (Saying this so I have to commit to doing so – Blogger Logic!!)
This week however I am going to be talking about the benefits of each of the amazing products Jennifer recommended.
Image Skincare Products
Yana Daily Collagen Shot Beauty Liquid Supplement.
Yana is brand new to the skincare market and to say it is revolutionary is an understatement. It is a daily collagen shot drink that strengthens the skin from within, by boosting the body’s natural collagen production. Each bottle provides a month supply, which contains antioxidants and vitamins. It claims to increase the skins firmness, reduce the wrinkle depth and boost hydration in the skin if taken everyday. It may just be the fountain of youth!
Ormedic Balancing Facial Cleanser
The Ormedic Balancing Facial Cleansers comes from Image’s pure and organic line, where this natural ingredients are combines with medical effectiveness to achieve maximum clinically proven results. The Balancing Facial Cleanser is a mixture of Green Tea and Chamomile that lifts away make up and impurities, while balancing the skins PH. You skin feels soft, cleansed and hydrated after use, and it is suitable for sensitive and post treatment skin.
The Ageless Hydrochloric Filler is designed to plump the skin and fill in fine lines with concentrated botanical-derived hyaluronic acid. Infused with Apricot essential Oils, Vitamin B5 and Vitamin E. You skin comes away plumped and moisturised.
Prevention Daily Tinted Moisturiser in factor 30 SPF
The Prevention Daily Tinted Moisturiser is infused with SPF 30 to keep your skin away from those harmful rays, why providing a moisturising tinted glow, without any residue. Enriched with a blend of Anti Oxidants, Vitamins and Green Tea, it provides protection and prevention from the sun.
The Iluma Serum is an oil free serum with a blend of hydroquinone, glycol, azelaic acid and natural lightening agents. These all combines evocatively lighten any skin discolouration. As it is also formulated with tea tree oil, it will calm any inflammation.
Similar to the Ormedic Cleanser, the Ageless Total Facial Cleanser cleans away all oils and balances the PH of the skin. infused with Glycolic Acid, it begins the exfoliation process on the skin, resulting in smoother skin. It can also be used on all skin types.
Ageless Total Retinol – A Creme
The Ageless Total Retinol A Creme is a highly concentrated blend of retinol, and polypeptides, which will resurface, rejuvenate and repair the skin, it is also a lot less scary than it sounds. It also has potent anti-aging benefits, and significantly reduces fine lines, resulting in tighter skin. The included Shea Butter however ensures the skin retains a moisture level.
I still don’t think after the 2 weeks I am able to give a true assessment of the products and how they are fairing on my skin, but I will definitely be checking in next week after week 3 to really talk about how my skin has been handling this new regime!
Have any of you tried Image Skincare before? If so what are your must have products?
Talk next week, when hopefully I’ll be looking younger than ever!
