StriVectin–AR™ Advanced Retinol Night Treatment.

/

What happens when you marry two significant anti-aging ingredients in one? You get a powerful product, and that is just what the latest from StriVectin is. Simply, the new StriVectin–AR™ Advanced Retinol Night Treatment combines NIA-114™ with Retinol to make a product that is faster and smarter. That is what I want when it comes to anti-aging treatments.

Why you should be using a retinol night treatment in your anti-aging routine.

I am sure you have heard of Retinol and just how powerful of an ingredient it is. Retinol is the usual go-to ingredient of scientists and dermatologists, and that is why you see it in so many products. It is a form of Vitamin A that is essential for skin cell turnover and growth. NIA-114™ is StriVectin's patented molecule. It is one of the most active forms of Niacin, and helps to strengthen the skins barrier as it gets down deeper into skins layers. So when these two ingredients are combined, the Retinol gets deeper into the layers of the skin with NIA-114™ , where you want it to work. The end result is a treatment that significantly reduces the appearance of deep-set wrinkles and fine lines, hydrates and deeply nourishes the skin, even the skins tone, makes firmness stronger, and refines texture.

I have been using StriVectin–AR™ Advanced Retinol Night Treatment for just over two weeks now. I use it at night only, after my serum and before my night-time moisturizer. Almost immediately I have noticed my skin take on a more radiant and youthful look. I cannot quite put my finger on it, but as my skin tone is much more even and firm, it just looks better. As I continue to use it, I expect to see at least some of the results that were found in clinical studies following 12 weeks of use:

  • 26X improvement in skin tone
  • 7X improvement in wrinkles
  • 4X improvement in skin firmness
  • 3X improvement in texture

If my early results are any indication, this is an anti-aging product that I will continue to use.

StriVectin–AR™ Advanced Retinol Night Treatment comes in one large 1.7 oz. size, and retails for $109.00. I use about the size of a dime to completely cover my face and neck. Shop online at strivectin.com or at Nordstrom.

Kiehl's Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Cream Collection.

Hey, if it is going to promise to reduce wrinkles, I am all over it. And I am totally all over this brand new trio of creams from Kiehl's - Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Cream, Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Eye Cream and Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Cream Broad Spectrum SPF30.

The Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Cream's were created to significantly improve elasticity, which in turn diminishes the look of fine lines, wrinkles and pores. The super smart Kiehl's chemists knew that to reduce wrinkles and address elasticity, they needed to focus on the skin's fiber network, which lives right beneath the skin's surface. The key ingredient is Copper, but also includes a mix of Calcium PCA and Apricot Kernel The formula works to reduce wrinkles, improve elasticity and protect the skin's moisture barrier to dramatically improve the skin's appearance.

I knew this cream was special when I simply rubbed a small amount of the Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Cream onto my hand. It instantly looked better. The cream itself is pretty thick, but sinks into skin quickly, while keeping it feeling hydrated. It really is comforting. I love that is pretty much scent free too. As I have used it every night over the past ten days, I have noticed my skin taking an overall better look. I am really hoping to see much needed improvement on my neck, as I have totally lost a lot of elasticity there. Time and more use will tell, and I will be sure to post an update.

To get the ultimate benefit, use the Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Cream Broad Spectrum SPF30 with the Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Eye Cream during the day, then again the Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Eye Cream and then the Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Cream at night.

The face creams retail for $52.00 each, with the eye cream costing $42.00. Shop at all Kiehl's locations, and online at kiehl's.com.

Introducing Imedeen Time Perfection®.

/

It's funny.  When I was a teenager, I couldn't wait to grow up. Now, I just want to turn back the clock and look as young as I can. I try every anti-aging product I can get my hands on; moisturizers, peels, masks, retinols, LED lights, lasers. I exercise, eat well, stay hydrated and wear sunscreen. I just may be a little obsessed with anti-aging. I am always wondering if I am doing all I can to look younger than I am. It turns out I am not. Have you ever heard of anti-aging supplements? Until very recently, I had not. But these "aging vitamins" do exist, and I am going to give some a try. I am about to start a 90 day trial with Imedeen Time Perfection®.

Imedeen Time Perfection

Imedeen® has been a pioneering skincare product since 1991. A true innovation in anti-aging skincare, Imedeen Time Perfection® is a daily tablet that works from the inside out. The tablet contains a marine complex that provides elements important for skin’s structure and moisture. In fact, it is very similar to those naturally found in the skin’s supporting tissue. What is really exciting is that Imedeen® has been shown to work in as little as 90 days by reducing fine lines and wrinkles, improving skin quality and moisture balance, and protecting collagen and elastin fibers against oxidative damage.  

I am a perfect age to start using Imedeen Time Perfection® too. It was specially created for women over 40 to get deep into the dermal layer where the process of skin aging begins. Unlike skincare creams that only reach the top layer, Imedeen® works as part of a daily skincare routine to help make skin on not just the face, but on the entire body, feel softer, smoother and more supple.

I am hoping that Imedeen Time Perfection® is going to help boost my anti-aging efforts. I am looking for my skin to look smoother and plumper, with less fines lines and wrinkles.  I will be reporting back as I take Imedeen® over the next three months, and I will let you know if and when I notice anything in my skin. I am really excited to see how a skin care supplement works for me.

A one month supply of Imedeen Time Perfection® retails for $77.00, with larger quantities discounted, and can be purchased online at imedeen.us/shop.
