Lately, I have been in a "back to basics" mode which means that at my 30's I should probably be less concerned about anti-aging skincare products and more about how actually I can do to prevent the damage on my skin caused by external factors. So, as a reminder and as boring as it may seem, this is what you have to do:
1) Drink Plenty of Water
2) Clean well your face daily to have your pores on point (Also don't forget about facials, acids and exfoliations)
3) Have a healthy lifestyle (sleep, diet, avoid bad habits...)
4) Wear Daily SPF to prevent Sun Damage
5) Hydrate and nourish your skin to maintain its elasticity
6) Use Antioxidants
This last one is underestimated, but it's crucial nowadays to fight against not only sun damage, but also pollution and oxidative skin stress in general.
I have been using for a long time the L-Ascorbic Acid form of Vitamin C and I can tell that what it does is truly amazing.
Drunk Elephant C-Firma Day Serum
This serum is glow bottled, really, after several applications my skin feels brighter and plumped. It's hard to find such a high concentration of vitamin C, but this glorious nectar has 15% of L-Ascorbic Acid. It also contains Ferulic Acid, Vitamin E (also antioxidants) and other botanical ingredients and moisturizers (pumpkin ferment and pomegranate extract). C- Firma is an antioxidant that effectively reduces the appearance of fine lines, pigmentation spots and dullness of the skin. The formula has a little tingling effect when applied, but hey!, that means that it's working baby ;) If you have very sensitive skin avoid its use because it's very powerful which also means irritant. I have a normal to dry complexion and this serum is totally ok for me. The texture is a mixture of oil and gel, but absorbs pretty fast and stays on the skin for 72h.
Drunk Elephant C-Tango Multivitamin Eye Cream
My under eye skin is a reflection of my personality. I smile a lot and that fact combined with the dryness of this area makes as a result, one of my most "aged" parts of my face. Paradoxically it's the most neglected step of my skincare routine. For years I have been thinking, why do I have to use a different product for my under eye skin? Are the regular products for all over the face not good enough? Is it a marketing strategy to make me buy more? Oh What the heck, I also have to admit that I'm even sometimes too lazy to apply another extra cream...
I have now made a real change in my beauty routine and apply more often formulations specifically designed to target the potential aggressors of this fine and delicate area of my face. C-Tango is a great treatment for under my eyes, its creamy formula nourishes these thin layers of skin and the blend of antioxidants diminishes the appearance of fine lines. It has a combination of eight peptides, five forms of vitamin C (Wow!) and cucumber extract. The bottle is almost empty, because I just love it, not only it repairs and makes your skin smoother but it's also quite brightening. Goodbye dark circles and discolorations!
