Vogue "2022's Best Serum For Your Skin, According to Experts" "The Best Vitamin C Serum for a More Vibrant Complexion"
Ask any dermatologists, and they would always recommend using a vitamin C skin care product. This is because the skin needs vitamin C to repair damaged cells, promote regeneration, synthesize collagen, fight free radicals, as well as inhibit the glycation process and AGE formation. Of course, it is also a potent ingredient for brightening and fading hyperpigmentation.
There are many forms of vitamin C, and using the wrong type can cause many skin woes. For instance, most vitamin C products on the market use the highly unstable, acidic ascorbic acid, which could damage the lipid barrier and cause acne, and thus are unsuitable for sensitive, reactive, inflammatory and acne-prone skin. On the other hand, skin-friendly Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (SAP) not only possesses all the properties of its counterparts, it is also clinically proven to be very effective against acne.
Brilliant Light Multi-Correctional Repair Serum's lightweight formula is instantly absorbed into the skin on contact, delivering a network of vitamins and antioxidants deep into the dermal layers.
A wide array of brightening ingredients, including 20% Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (Vitamin C), Ferulic Acid, Licorice Root and Rosehip Oil, works to dissolve and inhibit melanin formations, brighten skin, reduce hypigmentation, stimulate collagen synthesis, and increase elasticity.
Whilst, regenerating Geranium, Orange Stem Cells, Ginkgo, Elderflower, Comfrey, Gotu Kola, L-Methionine and Dandelion, hydrating, soothing and nourishing Aloe Vera Leaf Juice, Glycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate, and Black Currant, Jojoba and Grape Seed Oils, as well as Sodium Hyaluronate and Superoxide Dismutase etc. work in synergy to balance, calm, hydrate, and repair the skin.

EBONY "2022 Beauty & Grooming Awards" "Best Night Cream"
The body produces less collagen and of lower quality as we age, whilst UV-rays, environmental factors, free radicals, and many of our daily habits accelerate the breakdown of existing collagen. The skin, in particular, is made up of 75-80% collagen, but after the age of 25, collagen synthesis reduces at a rate of 1.5% a year. At the age of 45, collagen levels may have fallen by as much as 30%, and around the 60-year mark, we stop producing collagen totally.
Retinol is one of the few potent anti-aging ingredients that is widely recognized. It stimulates the production of type I, type III and type IV collagen, elastin and epidermal growth factor receptors, and thicken the dermis, thereby smoothing wrinkles, firming skin and tightening pores.

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 - acting as a cellular messenger, studies have shown that Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 can significantly stimulates the regeneration of collagen fibers in the dermis and the production of hyaluronic acid in the skin, which helps reduce wrinkles, as well as tighten skin by attracting moisture to the epidermis. In addition, it reduces inflammatory cytokines, known as interleukins, which in turn, reduces the cumulative damage that UV radiation, pollution, stress, and other pro-inflammatory factors bring to the skin. Studies have shown Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 reduces interleukin production by 86% after UV exposure. It has also been shown to lighten pigmentation, and even skin tone. Some studies suggest it may help in reducing the appearance of rosacea.
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 - a messenger peptide that directly stimulates collagen I, glycosaminoglycan (chains of polysaccharides linked to a central protein in the dermis of the skin, for example, hyaluronic acid), and fibrillogenesis, and reinforces the epidermis. Result are similar to retinoic acid but without the irritations. Many studies and clinical trials have found that applying it twice daily for at least four weeks can result in statistically significant reductions in wrinkle length, depth and skin roughness. It also helps decrease the appearance of pores, and help the skin retain moisture.
