Dr Botanicals - Moroccan Rose Light Summer Cream.

The Dr Botanicals Moroccan Rose Light Summer Cream is a lightweight cream formulated with rose to protect and repair the skin. Dr Botanicals believe oils and plant extracts can make a genuine difference to skin. Never tested on animals, this range embodies their belief in the potent power of botanicals. The main active ingredients in the Moroccan Rose Light Summer Cream formulation are: Rose Flower Water: Works to calm and soothe the skin, reducing any redness for a more even complexion. Coconut Oil: Works to hydrate and balance dry and irritated skin. Tiare Flower Extract: Aims to deeply moisturise, nourish and purify the skin.
Situated in a beautifully decorated 50ml tube with a twist off cap, the Moroccan Rose Light Summer Cream is dispensed by squeezing the tube a little. You will instantly notice the stunning fragrance that enlightens your senses from the heady sweet but floral aroma, thanks to the ingredient Hydroxycitronellal which is a perfume ingredient with a medium strength floral scent, reminiscent of lily and sweet tropical melon . If your skin does not tolerate fragrance in products then this cream will not be suitable for you, as u can read from the ingredients.
Dr Botanicals Moroccan Rose Light Summer Cream Ingredients:
Aqua (water), Glycerin, Glyceryl Stearate SE. Cetearyl Alcohol, Rosa Damascena Flower Water, Stearic Acid, Cocus Nucifera (Coconut Oil), lsoceteth-20, Phenoxyethanol, Benzyl Alcohol, Bakuchiol, Carbomer, Parfum (Fragrance), Polyacrylamide, C13- 14 Isoparaffin, Disodium EDTA, Ethylhexylglycerin, Dehydroacetic Acid, Laureth-7, Benzyl Salicylate, Gardenia Tahitensis (Tiare Flower) Extract, Alpha-isomethyl lonone, Limonene, Coumarin, Hydroxycitronellal, CI 17200 (Red 33).
Smoothing Dr Botanicals Product over face and neck daily after cleansing, this light vegan friendly cream does instantly absorb into the skin leaving a smooth and hydrated base. Applying serums and gels before the application of the Moroccan Rose Light Summer Cream works extremely well if you follow a layering skincare regime. I did experience a slight residue felt on the skin and this is because of the emollient ingredient Glycerin, as well as the ingredient C13- 14 Isoparaffin, which is a mixture of mineral oils derived from petroleum. 
We all know the debate about mineral oils, but if your skin can tolerate such products then its down to the users preference. The cream also contains Bakuchiol, a natural alternative to Retinol, is a meroterpene phenol derived from Indian Psoralea corylifolia (Babchi) leaves and seeds. Limited research has shown that this ingredient seems to have restorative activity. The ingredient Cocos Nucifera oil is good for ultimate soft and moist skin care. Cocos Nuciferaoil is also known to help individuals with skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis and maintaining acne breakout in control.
The Rosa Damascena Flower Water is an aqueous solution of the steam distillate obtained from the flowers of Rosa damascena which offers skin benefits such as skin conditioning and skin protecting.
Using the Moroccan Rose Light Summer Cream would benefit those who are wanting a light cream without feeling heavy or greasy on the skin, but only if your skin can tolerate fragrance skincare products. Visit Dr Botanicals Moroccan Rose Light Summer Cream to find out more. X Neil.

High Performance Vitamin C Facial Serum - Anthony

The high performance Anthony Vitamin C Facial Serum is filled with a stabilised Vitamin C to protect skin against free radicals, while stimulating its production of collagen. A unique blend of peptides and AHA's rejuvenate, retexturize and brighten skin, while licorice root extract helps to create an even skin tone.
The serum is a product to include in your skincare if you are looking for an anti-ageing product that can help prevent premature ageing, whilst also helping to transform damaged skin caused by stresses such as the sun. The other tasks the serum can achieve is by boosting moisture levels even in the driest of skin types, whilst also soothing skin with the help of its energising cucumber extract.

The Anthony Vitamin C Facial Serum contains NO Parabens. Phthalates, DEA, Animal Derived Ingredients, GMO's, while the company is against animal testing.
The skincare product has been allergy and dermatologist tested. Ingredients:
Aqua (Water, Eau), Glycerin, Pentylene Glycol, Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Maris Aqua (Sea Water, Eau de Mer), Citrus Bigaradia (Neroli) Oil, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract, Citrus Bigaradia (Neroli) Extract, Cymbopogon Schoenanthus Extract, Cymbopogon Schoenanthus Oil, Sodium Hyaluronate, Plankton Extract, Butylene Glycol, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Xanthan Gum, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer, Carrageenan, Hydrolyzed Algin, Trehalose, Polysorbate 20, Triacetin, Polyquaternium-51, Sodium PCA, Urea, Carbomer, Sodium Lactate, Salicylic Acid, Phenoxyethanol, Benzyl Alcohol, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Sodium Hydroxide, Disodium EDTA, Benzoic Acid, Propylene Glycol, Benzethonium Chloride, Dehydroacetic Acid.
Anthony Vitamin C Facial Serum - How To Use.
Apply the high performance serum daily to cleansed skin in the morning and in the evening.
The high performance Anthony Vitamin C Facial Serum should be the first product applied to the skin as its water soluble. Containing the Vitamin C ingredient Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, also easily recognised as MAP, is a derivative of Vitamin C. It is more stable in water unlike the purest form of Vitamin C and has been shown to offer specific skin brightening benefits, more so than other derivatives of Vitamin C. Applying to the face, the serum glides over skin and absorbs in seconds leaving no trace of itself. Skin is left instantly hydrated with a smooth and soft texture ready for you to apply your moisturiser. It is important you apply a sunscreen after your moisturiser due to photosensitivity that is increased when using a product with AHA's included. AHA's are excellent in serums as they are applied directly to the skin, contain smaller molecules than a cream and have longer in contact with the skin to work. The Anthony Vitamin C Facial Serum can easily be introduced into your skincare routine and can be purchased at MaleSkin, the online shop for all skincare, offering a wide range of information and news, to help you with your skin concerns. Add the Vitamin C Serum in your regime to see and feel the benefits. X Neil.
