Why Eye Cream is important in Your Daily Beauty Routine?

Eye creams, especially tend to be under scrutiny as products that may not be necessary for daily use. Truth is, eye creams are extremely necessary and a great product to use to keep the skin around your eyes healthy.

The skin around the eyes is more fragile, more sensitive, more prone to dryness, and quicker to show age and fatigue. Squinting and constant movement of the eyes also hasten the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and fluids collect under the eyes and cause puffiness and dark circles.

It isn’t rare to have someone ask if you are tired, due to puffiness around your eyes. When you are tired, dark circles might also be something that appears under your eyes. This area of our skin also reacts badly to any skin care products that are subpar. Using bad ingredients may cause irritation or inflammation that results in hyperpigmentation. While too much sun exposure is bad for all skin, it is especially bad for the under eye area.

The Rationale For Using Eye Cream

It may seem like eye cream is not much different from moisturizers that are used on the rest of the face. Using moisturizer may seem sufficient to keep the eye area from wrinkling or puffing; however, eye creams do have some differences that make them worthwhile.

Many moisturizers caution users to avoid the eye area when using. Moisturizers can contain chemicals that may be harmful to the eye area and many contain fragrances and preservatives that can irritate eyes as well. Eye creams are specifically formulated to be used in the eye area, making them safer and more beneficial.

Some eye creams have stronger ingredients and work better than a moisturizer can. Eye creams are also formulated to reduce puffiness and dark circles, while moisturizers need to handle the entire face and are less specialized.

We all know that eye is the window of the soul, it is also the thinnest skin area that can easily exposed our age. Hence, I am concern on a good eye care since I stepped into my 30’s. I have tried a lot of eye care products and Trilogy Age-Proof CoQ10 Eye Concentrate is by far the best one I’ve tried.

The Beauty Junkie – ranechin.com

Trilogy has reformulated their Age-Proof CoQ10 Eye Recovery Concentrate to includes jojoba derived super-ingredient L22® which mimics the lipid profile of your skin at 22 to support a firmer, more youthful appearance. Potent botanical complex Glycablend™ is proven to reduce collagen breakdown, while caffeine from coffee extract helps brighten and increase microcirculation for dark circles. Also with hydrating hyaluronic acid and CoQ10 to strengthen the delicate skin around the eye.

We like that Trilogy Age-Proof CoQ10 Eye Recovery Concentrate comes with a cooling metal applicator to reduce puffiness. It is also easy to use, just gently sweep applicator across under-eye area and tap excess with fingers. The eye concentrate in silky texture made it easy to absorb into the skin. I like the soothing sensation when apply it.
The best part? The puffiness and dark circles under my eyes are gone after using it for 2 weeks.

Essential Daily SkinCare Routine Tips

#Everthing about STRONG SKIN BARRIER FUNCTION.

To have healthy glowing skin, trouble free skin, it is important to maintain a strong skin barrier function. When skin barrier is healthy, it will keep moisture in and kick free radical out.

WHY IT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT SKIN CARE STEP TO TAKE CARE OF SKIN BARRIER FUNCTION?

Our skin barrier is the outermost layer of our epidermis. Its function is to protect our skin from external bad elements, and keep our internal skin pores properly hydrated and clear.

Without a strong skin barrier function, it is impossible to keep our skin clean, clear, hydrated and healthy, we will suffer from overly dry or oily skin, dehydrated skin, sensitive skin, blocked pores, rough and damaged skin, problematic skin and all sorts of skin surface problems.

Our skin will also suffer from over sensitivity and poor absorption and unable to absorb the benefits of nutrients from more powerful anti-aging skincare products, and worse still experience negative reactions and effects from using such products!

Only people with healthy skin barrier function can enjoy the benefits of advanced skincare products and enjoy good youthful skin complexion!

To do this, our skin barrier needs to be properly moisturized, able to retain hydration, always clean and clear, and has the ability to defend itself against external attacks by free radicals, pollutants and UV rays.

Proper cleansing, toning, exfoliation, masking, hydration, moisturisation, and protection with antioxidants and sunscreen are all critical skincare steps to keep our skin barrier function strong and healthy!

Basic Skin Care Routine

Step 1: Cleansing

Use a gentle cleanser to remove excess oil and makeup. This is an essential step as it lowers breakout and acne problems.

Step 2: Toning

A toner should be alcohol-free as it can make your skin excessively dry. It hydrates your skin and tightens the skin pores to give you perfect texture before you apply any layer makeup.

Step 3: Moisturizing

Choose a moisturizer according to your skin type to maintain or balance water and oil level. This also makes your skin fresh and young. Choose day and night cream for a youthful healthy skin.

Follow these simple steps in the day as well as nighttime. If you are heading out in sun, do not forget to apply sunscreen lotion to block UV rays. Sun blocking moisturizer should be of at least 30 SPF and is to be applied in rich quantity 30 minutes before stepping out in sun. In addition, the lotion should be re-applied after every three hours, as one layer protects you for three hours. Here is an additional tip, intake Vitamin C in a rich amount because that will fight against UV rays more effectively than any sunscreen.

At night, just add a few more things to your routine and avoid use of sunscreen at night. Use spot reduction lotions or if your skin is tanned, you can apply de-tan treatment. Nighttime is the best time to get rid-off any skin problem if you do it in a right way. More importantly, put an under eye cream and a lip balm for proper care.

These simple steps will ensure that your skin retains its youthful charm for a longer period.

Worship and Blessing: your daily shot of youth

Worship and Blessing: Your Daily Shot of Youth

What’s the difference between a water-based and an oil-based serum? Can I use them together? Should I use them in a specific order? Which one is better for my skin condition? We get asked these questions all the time. Here is everything you need to know about getting your daily shot of youth with Worship Skin Defence Antioxidant Serum and protect your skin using Blessing Anti-Pollution Light Face Serum.

Water based vs Oil based

Worship Skin Defence Antioxidant Serum is a water-based serum. This means the formula is lighter on the skin, less moisturising and more quickly absorbed. The antioxidants from boysenberries, acai, coffee berry, kiwifruit and Vinanza Grape are soaked up by the skin fast, so there is no need to wait after applying, before moving on to your next product.

Blessing Anti-Pollution Light Face Serum is an oil-based formula. It is more viscous, moisturising and slightly slower to absorb than a water-based formula. Because it is oil-based, it helps to balance oil production on the skin and also combat dryness. This makes it great for both oily and dry skin types. The formula provides a light barrier against harmful pollution particles, even as it brightens and improves it.

Can I use these serums together?

Yes! Worship Skin Defence Antioxidant Serum and Blessing Anti-Pollution Light Face Serum work beautifully together. By using both serums together, the antioxidant properties of both formulas are enhanced, leading to even better protection against oxidative stress on the skin, as well as helping to lighten and brighten your complexion like never before.

In what order should I use them?

Always use Worship Skin Defence Antioxidant Serum first. The quickly absorbed, water-based formula absorbs swiftly into the skin, paving the way for Blessing Anti-Pollution Light Face Serum’s oil-based, light natural barrier to be applied on top. By using the oil-based formula second, skin is cocooned in protective moisture for all-day hydration, and can more easily absorb the nutrients from both formulas.

Anti-Pollution Skin Care: Save your Haze Polluted Skin

Photo credit: https://www.todayonline.com/world/asia/malaysia-may-adopt-singapores-transboundary-law-smoke-pollution

Malaysia is one of the countries in Southeast Asia that is worst affected by pollutions such as haze which are commonly caused by slash and burn practice by farmers and peat fires from Indonesia. The other common factor is the car emission since Malaysia has the highest level of car ownership per person in the world and thus, led to the high levels of carbon monoxide pollution in most major cities.

There are many definitions of pollution and basically it is a mix of many different components and elements that are responsible for the changes to our health and skin. It is capable of penetrating through our skin, inducing collagen and elastin breakdown, and also releasing the free radicals. According to the recent study about the link between atmospheric pollution (eg. nitrogen and ozone oxides) and premature skin ageing, people living in populous cities have lower levels of vitamin E and squalene in sebum. The sizes of the particulate matters (PM) in the urban pollution are ranges from 2.5 to 10 microns, which seem to be one of the main threats to skin health which can cause cellular damage, dryness, inflammation and pigmentation.

Anti-pollution skin care has become the growing trend in the beauty industry in recent years. Some of the famous skin care brands, including natural and organic, have released products that can protect our skin from pollutions. One of the main ingredients in most anti-pollution skin care is antioxidant. Some examples of good antioxidants are vitamin C, retinol (vitamin A), vitamin E, resveratrol, coenzymeQ10, niacimide (vitamin B3) and polyphenols. Antioxidants have great many benefits to our skin since it helps to combat free radicals from further damaging our skin cells. Some of the benefits are they can help correct signs of ageing, prevent sunburn, help the skin to repair itself, brighten the skin tone and prevent skin cancer.

There are many great natural anti-pollution skin care products on the shelves, nowadays, that offer basically the protection you need from the pollutants around you such as antioxidant, anti-toxin, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and UV protection. Not only that, these anti-pollution ingredients will also offer the benefit of strengthening your protective skin barrier, increase hydration and repair damaged cells.

Skincare Benefits of Vitamin C

According to board-certified dermatologist, Patricia Wexler, vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that can neutralize free radicals and aid in your skin’s natural regeneration process which helps your body repair damaged skin cells. It can also help to accelerate the collagen and elastin production, keeping skin firm and plump. It also contains a property that inhibits the skin’s melanin production which causes skin discolouration like dark spots and hyperpigmentation. Due to these multiple benefits vitamin C can bring to the skin, it has been widely regarded by skincare professionals and dermatologists to be one of the most effective and proven ingredients to solve many issues relating to skin ageing and imperfections.

Pure vitamin C powder, also known as ascorbic acid, is the most stable form of vitamin C since it is the most effective in referring its potency and penetrating the skin barrier. However, once exposed to air and water, its efficacy begins to deteriorate rapidly due to oxidation, and this has remained one of the major challenges in applying vitamin C in skincare products. To solve this problem, Trilogy, the leading natural skincare brand from New Zealand, has successfully formulated the real Vitamin C Booster Treatment to deliver an effective vitamin C treatment for consumers who are looking for an effective, fast delivering solution to brighten, rejuvenate and even-up their skin complexion.

Trilogy Vitamin C Booster Treatment provides an intense 2-week topical treatment with 6% high-potency natural vitamin C that is freshly activated when you begin your treatment. Antioxidant powerhouse vitamin C kickstarts the skin’s renewal processes that help improve brightness, pigmentation and skin tone. To ensure the optimal skin benefits, ingredient components are kept separated until you start your treatment. Once activated, fresh vitamin C powder is mixed with hyaluronic acid concentrate to create a booster treatment that helps brighten and smooth skin, while daisy extract illuminates and rosehip oil nourishes.

To further visibly boost your glow, the Vitamin C Booster Treatment can be paired with the new Trilogy Vitamin C Moisturising Lotion which is rich antioxidants and stabilised vitamin C to further enhance the results.

Both Trilogy Vitamin C Booster Treatment and Trilogy Vitamin C Moisturising Lotion are suitable for all skin types and are certified natural. 80% of the participants experiencing an improvement in overall radiance in 2 weeks (Use twice daily).
