As you may have seen from my previous post, Bare Minerals have launched a new skincare range and quite a few of those products have made it into my everyday skincare routine, but there is one in particular that I wanted to share and go into a bit more detail on and tell you my results...
I have been seeing a lot about different and new more natural ingredients from around the world that are being used in skincare to get amazing results. I am already a big fan of the Elemis Cellular Recovery Bliss Capsules containing the very powerful anti oxidant oil Moringa, native to the southern foothills of the Himalayas in northwestern India. So when I heard the story of the 'Long Life Herb' from a small island called Okinawa off the coast of Japan and how Bare Minerals were using it in this product I was very intrigued.
So what is it?
The product itself, the "SkinLongevity Vital Power Infusion" is designed to reawaken the skin and help maintain the look of health in the skin, it has been designed to mimic young healthy skin. So not claiming to be a miracle anti ageing cure, but to make the skin behave as if it was younger, therefore looking younger and help to protect the skin for ageing further.
The main ingredient of the Long Life Herb is only found on the small island of Okinawa which is one of the worlds "blue zones" (areas of the world where the people living their have higher life expediencies). The people of Okinawa believe it is this herb that is responsible for their long lives and youthful looks. Eating a just handful of it will increase your life expectancy by a day and has a higher mineral content of Spinach and Kale!
The product also contains California Poppy extract, a powerful anti oxidant and Lempuyang Ginger Extract which fades the appearance of discolouration, brightens the skin and is used in Chinese medicine to decrease inflammation and improve circulation. A real cocktail of amazing ingredients.
What are the results you will see?:
As I said before not a 'miracle' claiming product, but clinically trials showed results within 14 days and you will see a healthier, more radiant, youthful complexion and over time will slow the ageing process of the skin.
My Results:
Although I'm only just starting to see some effects of ageing, I'm so conscious of prevention so this product really did appeal to me. I'm always wanting my skin to look as 'healthy' as possible and want to know that I'm working on anti ageing without going overboard too soon. The results I've seen is that my skin feels more hydrated, looks a lot brighter and fresher and I've really enjoyed the lovely light texture under my moisturiser and the beautiful fresh fragrance. I don't always enjoy using serums or oils in the daytime but this is light enough that I have been able to apply 2 pumps morning and evening underneath my moisturiser without any problems and it should last 2-3 months if used this way so at a £45 price tag I feel that's good value for money. You can use this product in conjunction with other treatment serums or oils (apply this one first as its the lightest texture) so you could use this all year round or just use a full one up as a boost.
