Hi Guys . Long time and I Hope you’ve had a great Summer! I have not blogged for a long time. I have been working on my audio meditations – I am a teacher on insight timer and on Instagram and that’s pretty much it – on the internet.

You guys Know how much I love Herbivore Botanicals.

Let’s Chat about some great additions for your Fall skincare routine .

NOVA 15% Vitamin C + Turmeric Brightening Serum

What Is it ….

A potent brightening serum that combines the clinical strength of 15% THD vitamin C with super root turmeric to visibly improve dark spots and even skin tone while being gentle on skin.

Recommended for: NOVA is suitable for all skin.

Target concerns:
+ Dullness
+ Dark Spots
+ Uneven Skin Tone

NOVA is powered by THD vitamin C—a highly efficacious, oil-soluble ingredient that deeply penetrates the skin to brighten dark spots and improve hyperpigmentation. At a potent level of 15%, this treatment gives skin an immediate boost of radiance and significantly brightens skin in seven days. Best yet, the powerful formula is gentle on sensitive skin, so everyone can enjoy its incredible benefits.

A key ingredient in NOVA is antioxidant-rich super root turmeric which gives this serum a ginger-like smell that fades upon application. Like all of our products, NOVA is 100% natural and made without any added fragrances.

What do I think?

 

This is my second Bottle – Thanks Herbivore. So Obviously I love it. 

It definitely brightens and smooths and it’s a great first thing in the morning serum that could be paired with a nice Hyaluronic acid before adding a moisturizer and then of course SPF – ALL YEAR … Even On cloudy days! Even on Rainy Days and Yes even on ….. SNOWY DAYS. 

I always use Vitamin C serums in the morning. It’s like they jumpstart the skin and protect against environmental aggressors at the same time. It’s the most important Vitamin to add to Your skincare routine. Period!

A+ 

I Would Highly Recommend it for all skin types and all ages.

SUPER NOVA 5% Vitamin C + Caffeine Brightening Eye Cream

 

Again This is my second or third jar so, yes ….. 🙂 Herbivore is always in my extremely long skincare routine.

What it is: A potent eye cream that visibly depuffs under-eye bags while brightening the appearance of dark circles over time with five percent THD Vitamin C and caffeine.

Skin Type: Normal, Dry, Combination, and Oily

Skincare Concerns: Dryness, Dark Circles, and Puffiness

Formulation: Cream

Highlighted Ingredients:

– THD Vitamin C 5%: Improves the look of dark circles.

– Caffeine: Visibly awakens and depuffs eyes.

– Turmeric Root: Is packed with antioxidants that visibly even skin tone.

Ingredient Callouts: This product is vegan, cruelty-free, and comes in recyclable packaging.

 

What do I think?

It works at de-puffing the under eye on contact …. That’s the caffeine. Just tap it in gently with your ring finger. the finger that has the least pull. We never want to be aggressive on the eye region- it’s the thinnest most delicate skin. It Absorbs quickly and makes the eye look revived. (the under- eye). I would not use this on the upper lid. This cream plays well with makeup and again, it’s like a great big morning cup of coffee for the eyes. 

 

B+

I would highly recommend for the under eye region – If you have very dry skin, I would go for something different. 20 Years up.

And Lastly For Today….

 

Lapis Blue Tansy Face Oil – 

 

Lapis Blue Tansy Face Oil won a 2020 Glamour Readers’ Choice Beauty Award for Best Natural Skin Care Product!

Lapis Lazuli, a favorite stone of ancient Egypt, is known for its gorgeous deep blue color. Lapis Facial Oil is named for the precious blue oil it contains, Blue Tansy.

This oil holds a component called Azulene which is known to soothe dry or irritated skin, reduce the appearance of redness and leave the skin feeling more balanced. Lapis Face oil is formulated for combination, oily, and blemish-prone skin types or any skin in need of balancing hydration.

Recommended for: Oily and blemish-prone skin or any skin type that appears imbalanced. This formula is non-comedogenic.

Target concerns:
+ Blemish-prone skin
+ Oily skin
+ Combination skin

Facial Oil for Oily Skin? Often times when we over-wash our skin and do not moisturize thoroughly, it can overcompensate by producing more sebum leading to oilier skin and even clogged pores. Our facial oils are made with truly natural plant oils that will help lock-in hydration without clogging pores so that the skin can stop overcompensating and find the balance it needs. In short, yes, oily skin needs moisture too and can get dehydrated, leading to dry patches and skin that looks and feels out of balance.

Concentrated Moisture. Oils are concentrated, effective moisturizers. Our oils sink in quickly to moisturize and nourish with emollients, fatty acids and antioxidant vitamin E, to give the skin a radiant glow.

 

What do I think?

This oil is a true Gem. I have pretty much normal skin. It used to be dry but I worked at it. I find that this oil rebalances the skin. I use it in the day, right before SPF and it leaves a lovely glow. Think Glazed Donut Skin with gorgeous ingredients that are going to nourish your skin all day. Yes I have done a wear test many a time as yes you guessed it … This is not my first Bottle of Lapis !!!! Thanks Herbivore.

Use it with their Jade roller for extra extra self care……It will hydrate your skin all day.

 

A+ 

I would definitely recommend this to anyone that wants to help their skincare barrier rebalance and for those who have normal/ combination/ oily skin. 

In Late Summer it’s all about prepping the barrier for colder and dryer temperatures – Hello Canada! 

So Hello Luxury Lapis I love you!

Check it out Here

 

I’ll be diving deep into more facial oils very soon – so stay tuned!

 

 

 

 

Thanks Herbivore
