Do you love makeup? Yes? Then know this, if you don’t have good, healthy skin, makeup will not look natural and flawless. Makeup and skin care go together. I mean, have you ever seen a painter use a rough canvas to paint on?
There are many key products that play a major role in skin care. I talked about Collagen in my previous post and today the star of the show is Retinol.
Retinol is a derivative of vitamin A and has long been known as the holy grail of anti-aging. Several studies have shown that using the Retinol topically can help reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles, pigmentation and acne. There are tons of information available online about Retinol if you would like to know more.
I have tried many brands of Retinol and saw results with some but I am always on the search for new items and that’s how I found this powerhouse from Drunk Elephant (pictured above). I must add that everything from Drunk Elephant is gold! I am yet to find a product from this brand that I don’t like. I had the opportunity of trying this as a sample but will definitely get the full size.
WHAT IT IS:
Retinol reimagined. A-Passioni™ Retinol Cream is a clean, cutting-edge formula that combines 1.0% vegan retinol with nourishing, superfood-rich ingredients to dramatically diminish the appearance of fine lines, deep wrinkles and sun damage revealing a vibrant, younger-looking complexion.
WHAT IT IS FORMULATED TO DO:
Retinol and supportive peptides restore bounce, resilience and a brighter clarity to skin while helping to even skin tone and texture … without the associated redness and irritation. Vitamin F, along with a curated blend of comforting passionfruit, apricot, marula and jojoba oils replenish essential lipids and moisture while antioxidant packed kale, winter cherry, and xanthophylls defend against environmental stressors.
It’s like a reboot for your skin back to its most healthy, youthful state.
YES! It will reboot your skin! I saw a difference after just 5 uses.
IMPORTANT:
Limit initial use to once or twice a week, gradually increasing frequency to every other night, and then every night as tolerated. Always use a broad spectrum sunscreen. Avoid the eye area.
