MG Skincare Vitamin C Serum 30ml. 

Antioxidants are the ideal products to be included in your skincare routine because they not only defend against free radicals that can damage the skin but they can also improve tone and texture. The MG Skincare Vitamin C serum features Ascorbic Acid that works to boost collagen production, help fade pigmentation and brown spots while also boosting any sunscreen protection when applied before it. I was pleasantly surprised when looking at the ingredients to find PEG-12 Glyceryl Dimyristate that forms stable liposomes that holds any unstable ingredient inside it (such as the vitamin c) that can become unstable when used in skincare formulas. I like to apply my antioxidant serum in the morning to clean skin first to protect the skin throughout the day before following on with application of my moisturiser and sunscreen. The MG Skincare Vitamin C Serum 30ml applies beautifully and absorbs quickly without leaving the skin feeling sticky or greasy and can easily be fitted into your skincare routine because the silicone-free formula plays well under other products without making them ball-up and flake off. Purchase the MG Skincare Vitamin C Serum 30ml priced at £22.00 that can be applied morning and night for its antioxidant benefits. 

MG Skincare Radiance Vitamin C + Retinol + hyaluronic acid + fruits acids serum.

The multitasking serum combines a range of ingredients to revitalise all complexions with anti-ageing, antioxidant and hydrating benefits. Featuring antioxidants Vitamin C and Vitamin E which both work in synergy with each other to provide superb photoprotection with their antioxidant benefits, the serum also contains retinol which is the most proven anti-aging ingredient available that u can purchase over the counter for its anti-aging benefits. The AHA fruit extract can improve texture and tone for a brighter and smoother complexion while the added glycerin and hyaluronic acid featured in the formula will help boost hydration. Applying to a cleansed skin either in the morning making sure you apply a sunscreen (you should be wearing a broad spectrum SPF during the day) you can also apply this multitasking serum at night. I love the hydrating and milky texture of the serum that glides over clean skin easily before absorbing quickly to leave the skin feeling hydrated and comforted. I like to apply this serum at night to treat the skin from the days stresses while also supporting the skins repair and regenerating stage that occurs overnight. Purchase the MG Skincare Radiance Serum priced at £18.00 that can be applied to the face, neck and even around the eyes for a multitasking rejuvenating treatment.

MG Skincare Daylight Invisible SPF50. 

Suitable for all skin types and skin tones, the daylight invisible SPF50 combines three chemical sunscreens to protect the skin against UVB & UVA rays. The lightweight lotion features hydrating glycerin accompanied with Shea butter that not only provides emollient benefits but also defends the skin with its rich antioxidant and vitamin A, E, F, quercetin and epigallocatechin gallate content. The chemical sunscreen agents featured are the highly stable Benzophenone-3, the oil-soluble chemical sunscreen agent Octocrylene, while the broad-spectrum Bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine does not deteriorate in the presence of UV light and stabilises other sunscreen ingredients making it a welcomed addition in the ingredients list. Typically a sunscreen can be applied over the face and neck after your serum or moisturiser and the recommended amount applied should be 1/4 of a teaspoon or the two finger measure rule (index and middle finger) which equates to 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon. It is essential to also allow any SPF product to absorb before applying any other product over it such as makeup because this could dilute the protection it has to offer while also waiting 30 minutes before any sun exposure so it can be most effective. I love how quickly the lightweight lotion absorbs to leave the skin feeling hydrated and nourished without feeling sticky or greasy which some sunscreens can do. Purchase the MG Skincare Daylight Invisible SPF50 priced at £14.40 that blends perfectly on all skin tones and protects the skin all year round.

MADARA Custom Actives Skincare

Recently launched, the MADARA custom actives feature the purest ingredients to either add into your skincare routine or replace a product you have finished using. Intending to help treat a specific problem, the range is easily identifiable by selecting which active you would like to use and some can even be used together when choosing from the 11 available options. Personalising your own skincare to your own needs has never been easier because lets face it no ones skin is the same, just add 2-3 drops to your face or body moisturiser, its as simple as that! Keep reading to discover the three i am reviewing which are all housed in light protective packaging and are vegan-friendly. Disclaimer: The links used are not affiliated and are placed for you to discover the products. 

The MADARA Isoflavone Concentrate is ideal for mature and sagging skin types because it utilises isoflavones which are natural phytohormones derived from organic red clover extract which in turn help stimulate the regeneration of the epidermis, support collagen synthesis and reduce enzymatic collagen degradation. The oil-free concentrate also contains humectants for improved hydration whilst also containing lactic acid which is a gentle exfoliant for improvement in skin texture and tone. The slightly coloured serum texture helps my moisturiser absorb quicker while i did experience a slight tightening effect when incorporating it into my skincare in the morning, it can be used both AM and PM if you wish. A great vegan-friendly skincare product to help reduce fine lines and wrinkles. restore skin elasticity, and also support/boost the skins regeneration process. Priced at £13.25 and available here: Madara Custom Actives - Isoflavone Phytohormones Concentrate 17.5ml

The MADARA Plant Stem Cell Concentrate is perfect for those looking to use a product that acts an as antioxidant with skin-restoring benefits. Utilising biotechnologically obtained plant stem cells from the Northern Dragonhead flower this concentrate helps to prevent prevent pigmentation, dark spots and premature ageing when applied under your sunscreen. It can be applied at night to also improve skin elasticity, reduce pigmentation, and also help the skin after sun exposure when mixed in with your night-time moisturiser. The light pink colour of this slightly thicker textured serum instantly conditions the skin whilst i tend to reach for this one for day time usage because of its antioxidant benefits to defend the skin from free radicals that can damage whilst with continued use it will help improve skin tone and texture from the hydrating AHA lactic acid also included in its formulation. Priced at £19.50 and available here: Madara Custom Actives - Plant Stem Cell Concentrate 17.5ml

The MADARA Provitamin A Concentrate utilises a vegan-friendly and plant-based retinol from sea buckthorn, cloudberries and rowan berries. The water-free formulation is beneficial for those who want to treat the signs of ageing skin, support collagen synthesis, and also ideal for those wanting to treat acne and scars. Applying directly to the skin or certain areas you wish to treat, you can also add 1-3 drops to your chosen moisturiser AM and PM. I like to involve this oil in my evening skincare routine by dispensing a few drops over any water-based serum to seal in hydration, but don't let the bright orange colour of this highly emollient oil put you off. The bright colour soon disappears when massaging into the skin while a pleasant aroma/fragrance is present, but soon fades when the oil absorbs quickly to leave the skin feeling perfectly nourished. A highly recommended plant-based retinol to reduce the signs of ageing and inflammation whilst respecting the skins integrity and barrier function. Priced at £13.25 and available here: Madara Custom Actives - Provitamin A Concentrate 17.5ml

Boost Your Body Care Routine With Conscious Skincare

Cleansing the skin is one of the most important parts of any body care routine whether you are a bath or shower lover, or maybe both, but applying a moisturiser, lotion, or oil afterwards is also an essential step to include to boost your body care routine. Conscious Skincare have a wide range of body care products available to counteract the drying effects that can occur from your personal ritual by including emollient and nourishing ingredients which in turn help to restore the skins barrier function and microbiome. Discover the two products below on the links featured which are not affiliated, but are placed for you to find the products easily.    

Conscious Skincare Body Moisturiser

After showering or bathing, your skin is ready for the application of the Conscious Skincare bounders mens body moisturiser. Containing skin benefiting organic Coconut Oil to assist in skin hydration, organic Sunflower Oil to keep moisture retained and Apricot Kernel Oil to aid softness and suppleness, this body product is a multitasking moisturiser for all skin types. Essential oils are included for their beneficial benefits such as the Amyris essential oil that brings a sense of calming which in turn helps to reduce stress, Cinnamon oil assists with skin circulation, Frankincense essential oil has a number of benefits for your skin including toning, lifting and anti-aging.

Apply the Conscious Skincare bounders mens body moisturiser to "Damp Skin" after showering or bathing which will help to seal in the moisture present on the skin. The light lotion glides on and over the body with ease and the natural fragrance is pleasant to the senses lasting practically 24 hours after you have applied it. I really like how hydrated the skin feels instantly after application and absorbs immediately with little massaging needed. Light enough to use in the summer whilst also being hydrating and soothing for the winter months, this versatile moisturiser supports any skin type when applied and wont leave you feeling sticky or greasy.

Conscious Skincare Body Oils

Oils are an effective tool to use when incorporating them into your body care routine because they are able to penetrate and be absorbed deeper by the skin for an intensive moisturisation treatment. The cold-pressed Conscious Skincare Abyssinian oil is non-comedogenic which means it wont clog up your pores and has a similar profile to the skins own natural lipids making it suitable for all skin types. Its content profile contains vitamins A and E whilst also a host of fatty acids that help support, renew, and also stop trans-epidermal water loss for improvement in hydration.

Applying over your lotion or onto bare damp skin after your shower or bath, the oil will instantly lock-in that hydration present and absorb quickly. The Abyssinian oil is personally one of my favourite oils because not only is it lightweight in texture but it also leaves the skin feeling extremely moisturised without feeling greasy! Don't put away this amazing multitasking oil away just yet, you can even use it on your hair as a pre-treatment before washing and conditioning or apply as a finishing touch to any style to add a glossiness shine.

Bringing the hair back and out of your face to apply specific products is made easier, thanks to the Garnier Good Squish that holds the hair in place. The handy hair helper should be handwashed in mild detergent whilst leaving to air-dry, do not tumble dry! To keep the shape of the 100% deadstock cotton and organza trim, you can iron using a little steam or you can place a heavy book over it and press down firmly, simple!     

Instantly hydrate and cool the skin, when applying the Anti-Fatigue Hyaluronic Acid & Icy Cucumber Cryo Jelly Face Mask. Placing the sheet mask on to cleansed skin, the vegan and second-skin formula cools the skin’s temperature by -7°C* whilst also minimising the signs of fatigue. Leaving on for 15 minutes, the formula contains 4% humectants and soothing ingredients to boost hydration and moisture for all skin types. Once the time is up and the sheet mask is taken off, you can either remove any residue with a cotton pad or massage any remaining product into the skin with your fingers. A hydrating and cooling sheet mask that hydrates and boosts moisture any season of the year, before applying any of your other skincare products.

Refreshing the under eye area with added hydration and soothing ingredients is accomplished easily when applying the Anti-Fatigue Hyaluronic Acid & Icy Cucumber Cryo Jelly Eye Patches. Applying after you have cleansed your skin, the jelly patches can either be used in the morning to awaken the eye area or in the evening to refresh before an occasion. Featuring the same 4% humectants and soothing ingredients just like the sheet mask, the jelly patches stay in place for 15 minutes to boost hydration and moisture whilst also cooling the skin’s temperature by -7°C*. Removing the patches, you can either remove any remaining product with a cotton pad or massage any remaining product into and around the eye area before following on with your current skincare products, 

Respectful of the skins barrier, the Micellar Cleansing Water All-in-1 effectively cleanses and soothes the skin whilst being able to remove water-proof makeup and sunscreens designed to stay on the skin. The micelles included act like magnets to capture and remove impurities, pollution, and face products whilst the added botanical glycerin included provides hydration and soothing properties. The no fragrance formula should be applied to a cotton or reusable pad and swiped over the face, eyes, and lips whilst no rinse-off is required. I personally like to cleanse my skin with a face cleanser but the micellar water is ideal for those who are travelling, for those who don't like using oil-balm cleansers, and is a perfect first cleanse to break-down stubborn water-proof products.

Enriched with Vitamin E and Beta-Carotene, Garnier Ambre Solaire Ideal Bronze Milk-In Spray SPF50 is a product to apply to help protect your skin from sun damage and photo-aging signs while also enhancing your tan. Resistant to sand, water, and sweat, the formula also protects against UVA and UVB rays when applied every 2 hours, though over exposure to the sun is dangerous and is advised not to stay exposed in the sun for a long period of time. Applying generously over the body from the spray applicator, the luxurious milky formula feels non-sticky, non-greasy, and has a transparent finish on the skin accompanied with a luxury fragrance. Perfect for those who want a high-protecting body sunscreen that leaves the skin with a soft and silky finish and not an uncomfortable one. 

Instant skin barrier protection is welcomed when applying the Super UV Daily Invisible Face Serum with SPF 50+ because the new formula is enriched with ceramide. Developed for the sensitive face area, it provides very high protection against UVB, UVA, and long UVA rays whilst also fighting against external aggressions and skin pollution. The non-greasy, non-sticky, and leaving no white marks when applied helps this invisible serum super UV be ideal for all skin tones. Presented in a pump bottle and applying the appropriate amount for maximum protection, the lightweight texture glides over the skin with ease before absorbing quickly leaving no trace of itself. Highly recommended if your wanting a lightweight and nude skin feel SPF to use daily and under makeup.

Intensely hydrating and smoothing the skin, the Garnier Ambre Solaire Super UV SPF 50+ Hydrating Protection Fluid provides a broad spectrum protection against UVB, UVA, and Long UVA rays. Formulated with 3% Glycerin, Vitamin E, and Hyaluronic Acid the non-greasy and non-sticky fluid is ideal for drier skin types, whilst it also helps fight against oxidative stress due to pollution. Shaking the bottle and dispensing two finger lengths (index and middle) to the face and neck, the fluid instantly absorbs with an invisible finish and no white cast. Ideal for all skin tones and the bottle being travel-friendly, this no-fragrance protection fluid should be applied as the last step in your skincare routine and applied before makeup.

Reapplication of sun protection is made easier when using the Garnier Ambre Solaire Over Makeup Super UV Protection Mist SPF50. Broad spectrum protection against UVB, UVA, and Long UVA rays is provided whilst the formulation also contains 6% Glycerin, Vitamin E, and Hyaluronic Acid for added hydration. Applied before makeup or after, the weightless and non-greasy texture feels comfortable on the skin when spraying over the face and neck with your eyes closed and your lips pinched together. The invisible finish is suitable for all skin tones and is ideal for anyone who wants to reapply their sun protection throughout the day, even if they are wearing or not wearing makeup.

Looking for skincare products that contain active components along with specific ingredients that are known for their skincare benefits are a must-have in any skincare routine. The serum contains: 

Black Caviar Extract - High in proteins, collagen and vitamins, this rejuvenating ingredient boosts cell repair and collagen production to reverse and transform any complexion. 

Active Gold –  Boosts penetration of active components into the skin, while enhancing their beneficial effect.

Wild Herbal Energising Complex – A special blend of unique wild-growing Siberian plants featuring a potent moisturising effect to resist dehydration.

Hyaluronic Acid – Hyaluronic acid keeps collagen synthesis up, as well as retaining skin moisture, contributing to the anti-ageing benefits to the skin.

VITAGENYL®*-  Prunus persica (Peach) Leaf Extract acts as an anti-ageing, exfoliating and revitalising active that regenerates and revitalises the skin to combat the signs of ageing.

PEPHA®-TIGHT* – a unique natural tightening and firming active ingredient that provides a tightening effect for at least 4 hours after application and has long term skin firming effect after multiple applications.

Ceramides – Holds skin cells together forming a protective layer that plumps the skin and retains its moisture.

Situated in luxury packaging, the serum is presented in a gold bottle accompanied by an eye dropper tool for easy dispensing. Applying to the face, neck and decollete, you will notice the colloidal gold flecks in the serum, before disappearing when the serum absorbs with little effort applied. A light fragrance can be detected, but soon dissipates leaving a smooth and soft base to proceed with your moisturiser to be applied over the top. Natura Siberica offer a day and night cream that can be applied over the top of this lovely serum. 

The Natura Siberica Night Face Cream-Concentrate Youth Injection helps and supports your skin to combat the signs of ageing. The active ingredients work synergistically together on application to refine and reform your complexion leaving skin toned, firmed and glowing. Incorporating the same active ingredients as the serum, the night cream also features two ingredients that are known to be essential in any anti-ageing product.

Polypeptide SYN®-AKE* – A peptide that reduces the appearance of wrinkles and laughter lines, smooths the surface of the skin improving skin tone and provides fast, long lasting results.

Vitamin F – Antioxidant, Emollient, Hydrating, Replenishing benefits for the skin and improving the skins moisture barrier.

The high-gloss gold tube is certainly eye appealing and the benefit of the pump applicator can stop you from using too much product if u were placing your finger in a jar. You can apply the night cream to a dry clean face or layer over the serum for maximum beneficial results, The cream is light in texture and glides over the skin easily, before absorbing really quickly leaving a soft and smooth base. Skin feels instantly smooth and hydrated without feeling greasy, oily or sticky and the next morning your complexion looks energised with an improved skin-tone each time both products are used night after night. I love how both products are easy to use, can easily fit into a skincare routine, and work excellent under any products that are applied after them if u wish. The products are free from parabens, mineral oils, PEG's and BHT-BHA's but provide skin with the essential ingredients for you to see results.
