Hello Bright Eyes: EmerginC Scientific Organics Eyelight Serum

December 9, 2019 · 17 Comments

EmerginC Scientific Organics Eyelight Serum is gentle enough for even sensitive eyes but packs a powerful antioxidant punch. It depuffs eyes while treating signs of aging.

EmerginC Scientific Organics Eyelight Serum uses organic and natural ingredients to brighten skin and reduce puffiness

Why It Is Special

A quick flick of this rollerball based serum takes care of morning undereye puffiness while reducing visible signs of aging. It has a unique combination of treating and soothing ingredients, many of them organic.

You will note there is no water on the ingredient label. Rather a fermented tea kombucha blend is used. Using a fermented tea/kombucha base to this product instead of water enhances its’ power instead of diluting it. Waterless beauty products tend to effect superior results.

Contains multiple organic ingredients that nourish while brightening the delicate eye area skin

Let’s take a look at the other ingredients in this formula:

Ingredient Profile


Packed with lots of natural goodness, Eyelight contains:

Astaxanthin

Astaxanthin is one of the most powerful antioxidants. It is 65 times stronger than Vitamin C in combating free radicals. It protects cells against oxidation or decay. It is moisturizing and has UV blocking properties.

Grape Stem Cells

Grape stem cells reduce sun damage while calming skin. Grape stem cells nourishing to the skin and contain building blocks for collagen production.

Kombucha

Well known as a healthy anti-aging beverage, this natural probiotic has topical benefits as well. It reduces inflammation and evens the skin tone. Packed with Vitamin Bs, it reduces wrinkles and brightens the skin. (SIDE NOTE: There is no tell-tale Kombucha aroma to this product).

EmergeniC EyeBright Ingredients on StyleChicks

Seaweed

Seaweed

Seaweed is full of humectants and draws water to the skin. It contains Vitamin E and amino acids that help Seaweed plump fine wrinkles.

Green Tea

Green tea contains polyphenols that soothe skin while providing antioxidants. Polyphenols may improve sun-damaged skin. [1] High in Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), green tea is a major player in skin health and appearance. EGCG is the potent antioxidant from green tea. It protects against environmental damage and neutralizes free radicals that prematurely age skin. Research shows EGCG reactivates dying skin cells. This shows promise for repairing sun damage and scar healing. [2]

Green Tea

White Tea

White tea is exceptionally gentle yet powerful. It helps even the skin tone. It is anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. It can reduce redness and inflammation around the delicate eye area, even if caused by light eczema. White tea also contains EGCG, which enables the production of new cells in the epidermis [3]. It also contains phenols which strengthen collagen and uniquely, elastin. This gives skin a bouncy, younger look while delaying wrinkles.

EmergeniC EyeBright Ingredients on StyleChicks

Mallow

Mallow

This natural floral extract contains Vitamins A, C, and E. It softens while being gentle enough for the most sensitive of skin. It nourishes dry and even damaged skin, restoring elasticity.

My EyeLight Serum experience

I use it before applying my eye cream. It is gentle but brightening. It does not sting even when my eyes are extra sensitive. It de-puffs my morning eyes but does not leave them feeling dry like some depuffing products can. My skin is smooth and dewy.

The rollerball is quick and distributes just the right amount of product. It dries down smooth, not at all tacky or sticky. Eye cream or makeup goes on top of the serum smoothly with no pilling.

Stable Waterless Vitamin C that Soothes: Kat Burki Nutrient-C Eye Cream

November 18, 2019 · 12 Comments

Kat Burki Nutrient-C Eye Cream is a stable Vitamin C with a Who’s Who of skin-friendly supporting ingredients, including their own trademarked KB5 Complex. This complex is used instead of water or fillers. This creates a potently stable yet soothing C product. This innovative light cream hydrates like a concentrate but dries down clean and remarkably smooth.

Kat Burki Nutrient-C Eye Cream boasts an impressive array of natural, eye skin-enhancing ingredients

The Caveats of Vitamin C for Delicate Eye Skin Care

Crow’s feet, wrinkles, crepey skin and discoloration. Vitamin C can work wonders on the delicate eye area skin for targeted skin-rejuvenation. It is an anti-aging, dark pigmentation fading powerhouse. Vitamin C is a building block for collagen, the support structure of the skin. Vitamin C also minimizes wrinkles and improves sun-damaged skin texture.

But… Vitamin C can also irritate sensitive eye area skin. Many people cannot tolerate daily Vitamin C around the eyes.

Fortunately, Kat Burki Nutrient-C Eye Cream contains a host of soothing, nourishing, treating and buffering ingredients that support Vitamin C efficacy as well as make daily Vitamin C use possible even on the most sensitive eye skin. This formula uses STAY-C, a stable form of Vitamin C, activated only upon absorption. Stable C is more power with less irritation.

Kat Burki Nutrient-C Eye Cream reads like a who’s who list of amazing skin-friendly ingredients. Let’s take a closer look.

Ingredient Profile


In addition to STAY-C Vitamin C, Kat Burki Nutrient-C Eye Cream contains an impressive formulation of natural, skin-enhancing ingredients.

KB5 Complex: The first five herbs are individually cold-processed into essences. They create the proprietary KB5 Complex, a trademarked signature blend that replaces the water in all Kat Burke formulas. There are no unnecessary fillers such as water, silicone, and alcohol in any Kat Burke product. This makes highly concentrated and pure formulations.

INGREDIENT DETAILS

Nutrient-C Eye Cream features KB5 Complex instead of water. It is a combination of:

  • Arnica flower is a natural anti-inflammatory. It reduces puffiness without causing dryness or dehydration around the delicate eye skin. It also decreases bruising and inflammation. Arnica promotes healing and reduces swelling.
  • Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica) improves elasticity and reduces sagging. It boosts antioxidant activity, strengthenings the skin and increases blood circulation. [1]
  • Calendula flower promotes the regeneration of new tissue and soothes damaged skin.
  • Lavender Oil softens and conditions the skin
  • Chamomile is an antioxidant with potent skin-soothing action. [2]

Nutrient-C Eye Cream also contains:

  • Safflower Oil is high in Omegas 3, 6 and 9. It hydrates dry skin, soothes irritation and enhances skin texture and appearance. It delays premature aging, tightens and brightens the skin.
  • Sunflower Seed Oil is hydrating, nourishing and an excellent supporting oil base. It retains moisture in the skin and is also rich in vitamin E.
  • Aloe Leaf Juice has an enzyme that repairs skin cells, soothes and heals the skin. It provides nourishment to the skin as it contains Vitamins A, C, Bs, and E as well as minerals and enzymes. This skin food heals, hydrates, and accelerates skin cell growth. It provides anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties.
  • Evening Primrose Oil restores a glow to the skin. It is excellent as a topical ingredient to provide moisture without clogging the skin and is helpful for eczema and acne. Supports elastin, moisture, and skin firmness. [3]
  • Jojoba Seed Oil is very similar to the composition of our natural skin oils, so skin tends to absorb Jojoba very well. Jojoba gives skin elasticity and softness. Jojoba Oil is a carrier oil, increasing the efficacy of other active ingredients. It smoothes wrinkles and fine lines without causing irritation.
  • Grape Seed Oil is nourishing to the skin and contains building blocks for collagen production. High in Polyphenols, Vitamins C, D, E and Omega 6, it treats dry skin, wrinkles, discoloration, and aging.
  • Neem Seed Oil is particularly effective on healing sun damage and restoring moisture. It deeply penetrates the skin to enhance elasticity, smooth wrinkles, and stimulate collagen production

  • Maris Sal (OMC-92 Ocean Mineral Complex) is “An Ocean Mineral Complex of Sodium, Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium and a blend of 92+ nutritious ocean minerals to needed for proper skin cell function.” [4]
  • Lonicera Caprifolium (Honeysuckle) Flower Extract and Lonicera Japonica (Japanese Honeysuckle) Leaf Extract are anti-inflammatories suitable for highly sensitive skin
  • Ganoderma Lucidum (Reishi) Extract comes from a mushroom with polysaccharides. These are responsible for the skin’s natural ability to hydrate and retain water. It promotes cell regeneration while reducing skin inflammation, puffiness, and wrinkles.
  • Juniper Fruit Extract has both soothing and antioxidant properties.
  • Rosemary Extract is soothing and helps reduce puffiness and lightens dark spots. It is stimulating and promotes better blood circulation.
  • Horsetail Plant Extract has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-aging properties. It reduces redness and soothes skin.
  • Geranium Extract makes skin glow and heals inflammatory skin conditions and topical ingredient induced irritation.[5] It also contains a fatty acid profile that promotes healthy skin cells and reduce wrinkles [6].
  • Dandelion Extract stimulates collagen production. Packed with vitamins A, C, and E, it protects skin against free radical damage and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Magnesium and zinc detoxify skin, and anti-inflammatory properties calm irritation and under-eye puffiness.
  • Algae Extract is packed with skin essential vitamins and minerals. It conditions, hydrates, softens, refines texture and detoxifies the skin.

OUR EXPERIENCE

The lack of water or fillers is evident.  The texture sinks in immediately and has the impact of a high-end serum concentrate. There are no remaining dry patches and skin just DRINKS it in. The smallest dab of product fully hydrates and leaves skin exceptionally smooth.

This light cream with a natural lavender scent is quick to absorb and won’t cause makeup to run or pill. We find Nutrient-C Eye Cream works well under makeup or solo for a dewy-eyed, glowing skin look. Pair it with Kat Burki Absorption tool for a spa-like treat.

A tiny dot of this innovative cream absorbs quickly and leaves eye skin glowing,
fine wrinkles subdued and undereye skin soft and smooth.

Copper & Skincare: Osmotics Eye Firming Complex with Copper Peptides

June 11, 2019 · Leave a Comment

We obsess over collagen-promoting skincare. Collagen-boosting Vitamin C serums are the Holy Grail of anti-aging skincare. But Elastin is also very important. Elastin keeps skin firm and resilient. Copper builds Elastin *and* Collagen. Plus it has a host of other anti-aging benefits.  But you don’t find skincare with copper just anywhere.

Copper Peptides are the key to enhanced elastin and collagen production.  Blue Copper 5 is a Copper Peptide. It is a key ingredient in the Osmotics line, including Osmotics Copper Firming Eye Complex.

Osmotics Firming Eye Complex contains Blue Copper 5, a potent copper peptide to firm eye skin

COPPER IN SKINCARE: Beauty Buzzword or Beneficial Beautification Must-Have?

Copper has been known to promote wound healing for some time. More recent studies show copper has exceptional anti-oxidant properties.

To effect skin improvement, a copper peptide must be used. The amount of effort to create these copper peptides generally puts copper skincare products at the mid to high price point within anti-aging skincare.

Copper is not just the latest skincare buzzword. It is backed with several clinical studies to support its’ value within both skin and hair care. [1]

What Copper Does For Skin

Copper enhances collagen *AND* elastin production.

Copper works with Hyaluronic Acid. It increases hydration and calms redness even on sensitive skin.  When paired with Hyaluronic, they increase and retain skin moisture especially well. Copper also helps the body promote Hyaluronic Acid. We lose Hyaluronic Acid as we age, so this feature of copper is a big get.

Copper also fights oxidative damage, a big factor in signs of aging. Finally, copper peptides remove and replace damaged collagen. Copper Peptides are powerful enough to get Vitamin C and Retinol level results but without the skin irritation associated with said topicals. [2]

How do these copper benefits enhance this eye complex cream? Osmotics Copper Firming Eye Complex fixes crepey fine lines on the delicate eye skin. These fine lines start to appear in our 30s and turn into full-fledged crow’s feet. Copper peptides stop fine lines in their sneaky tracks by firming eye area skin.

Just a tiny bit leaves my orbital area skin soft, supple, and glowing. It is not sticky or greasy, it absorbs nicely into the skin. It never stings or irritates my sensitive eyes.

 


Bonus feature: eye makeup goes on smooth and stays put.

I love pairing Osmotics Copper Firming Eye Complex with home light therapy device treatments for extra firming of eye skin contours.

Osmotics Cosmeceuticals have several copper-based treatments and we hear talk of a haircare product range featuring copper.

I.Lublin Anti-Wrinkle Serum

February 4, 2017 · Leave a Comment

A serum that targets fine lines & wrinkles around the eyes, lips & forehead using a Peptide that is clinically proven as effective as Renova.

GOT WRINKLES?

Discovering emerging fine lines and wrinkles can be very disconcerting. Often the sign of eleven lines (the lines between the eyebrows) or smile lines send some women (and men) straight for the Botox injections. But don’t rush off just yet: a safe and effective route to wrinkle reduction is a quality serum packed with anti-aging ingredients. Wrinkles are often a result of a loss of collagen and they look even worse with dehydration or dryness. One serum we like that can tackle both of these wrinkle-causing problems is I.Lublin Anti-Wrinkle Serum.

ABOUT I.LUBLIN ANTI-WRINKLE SERUM

This serum contains natural botanical ingredients including vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to nourish and improve your skin. The moisturizing formula fills in fine lines or wrinkles to reduce signs of aging, leaving skin with a beautiful glow.

Many products can temporarily improve the appearance of wrinkles, but what about long-term improvement? We read about the ingredients before use to see if a product is worth using on the face. I.Lublin Anti-Wrinkle Serum contains several quality ingredients that together are a great team in your wrinkle reduction line-up.

 

I.Lublin Anti-Wrinkle Serum

INGREDIENTS

This I.Lublin Anti-Wrinkle Serum contains many ingredients found in proven, high-end anti-aging products. Amongst them are select peptides that are the over-achievers of the anti-aging ingredient arena.

PEPTIDES: The I.Lublin serum contains two Peptides that stimulate collagen production. One of them (Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-14) is found to be very similar to the effects of Renova. The Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology (Feb 2009) says that this peptide can “stimulate cell migration, collagen synthesis, and fibroblast proliferation and scaffolding.”  In regular people speak, these are all the skin functions that when underperforming due to age, cause wrinkles. According to studies comparing Renova to this peptide, the peptide was found to be “equal to or more effective than Renova® cream in regard to therapy for fine lines and wrinkles of the periorbital region.”

Renova retails for $100-$150+, which in my book, makes this serum a steal just for the inclusion of this one particular power-Peptide. Hexapeptide-14 also creates a brighter and more refined skin texture.

Other anti-aging, skin friendly ingredients in this serum include:

  • Rosehips are a highly concentrated source of Vitamin C, the primary building block in collagen production. Collagen builds the scaffolding and structure of the skin and keeps it from sagging.
  • Dead Sea Salt stimulates blood circulation and calms skin irritation and skin redness. It also contains several minerals that nourish skin.
  • Grapeseed Oil is highly nourishing to the skin, providing the necessary building blocks for collagen production.
  • Argan Oil is a trending ingredient in hair and skin care as it both softens and nourishes the skin
  • A Retinol Ester (Vitamin A) helps lighten age spots and discoloration, improves skin texture and helps reduce the darkness inside a wrinkle, so it appears less deep. Also helpful for adult acne.
  • Goji berry (Lycium Barbarum Fruit Extract) is an antioxidant that softens the skin
  • Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil is a non-greasy oil high in linoleic fatty acid, and Phytosterols which are protective, aid in skin recovery and retain moisture.

APPLICATION & USE

Apply to skin after washing, while it is still slightly damp. Apply a thin layer to the skin using small circular motions to help it absorb. Focus on the eye area, the area around the lips and the forehead.

It is intended for night time use, so apply your nighttime moisturizer over the serum for best results.

RESULTS

FIRST IMPRESSIONS: My skin feels SO silky that I want to keep touching my face! Skin quickly drinks in the serum, and it fully absorbs within a few minutes and does not leave a greasy residue. My skin texture and tone looks even like I have an optical blurring filter on my skin, but it still looks like my skin, not fake. Wrinkles appear blurred. I applied a light moisturizer afterward as instructed, and my skin looked dewy. There is no stinging or irritation.

NOTE: Only a thin layer is needed, I used two pumps total for my eyes, face, and throat, and had a little left over for my collarbone

AFTER CONTINUED USE: Due to the 21-day skin cell turnover cycle, for the Peptides to do their job, they must be used daily for at least 30 days to see results. So use the serum every evening for a month to assess improvement. I did see results faster than a month, with a softening of expression lines before the actual cell turnover occurs.  I have used pricey Renova in the past, but I was particular impressed with the I.Lublin Anti-Aging Serums’ ability to tackle fine lines around the eyes and mouth area, and the softening of fine lines on the forehead. The skin around my eyes looks softer and younger now, and the wrinkles and fine lines are not so noticeable. I also find my undereye concealer is not settling into these fine lines as much, which to me, makes me think they have improved in texture and depth.

I am particularly impressed with the results around the lips/mouth area. My mouth area appears more aged than the rest of my face, showing fine lines and dryness, as well as enlarged pores and uneven texture. This area has been resistant to most anti-aging serums. Injections and fillers around the mouth can have such varied results; it is a treatment option I would prefer to avoid as long as possible. So I am very pleased to find a product that can address aging and fine lines around the lips and give a natural, younger look.

PACKAGING

The I.Lublin Anti-Wrinkle Serum has bright, colorful gift wrap with a bow. Anyone who expresses concern over wrinkles likely is searching high and low for a solution. The gift wrap makes for a great gift for a special friend who wants to safely improve the appearance of aging and wrinkles on their skin.

CONCLUSION

Before considering injections or procedures to reduce the appearance of fine wrinkles and lines, invest in a quality serum that can best enhance collagen production, treating existing wrinkles and preventing new ones, as well as make skin more refined and soft. I.Lublin Anti-Wrinkle Serum moisturizes skin while providing nourishment to the skin to help it become soft and supple again. It is especially effective around the eyes, lips, and forehead; it helps tackle some of the most aged skin areas of the face for a much more youthful look.

Favorite Skincare Ingredients: Sea Buckthorn Oil

February 1, 2017 · Leave a Comment

The “hostess with the mostest” of the StyleChicks Favorite Skincare Ingredients series, Sea Buckthorn Oil has over 200 nutrients to work wonders on delicate eye skin, wrinkles & stretch marks.

Sea Buckthorn Oil reduces wrinkles, fine lines and acne

Sea Buckthorn Oil comes from these tiny berries. Topical application reduces wrinkles, fine lines, and acne

 

WHAT SEA BUCKTHORN DOES

Sea Buckthorn Oil is an ingredient worthy of your skincare routine.

With over 200 nutrients to nourish the skin, it heals skin damage including scars, burns, and abrasions. It soothes eczema and treats acne.

But my favorite thing about Buckthorn Oil is it treats aging skin and sun-damaged skin as if it is an injury or wound, and Buckthorn thinks it must remedy the situation immediately. I feel ya, Sea Buckthorn. So it “calls the troops” together, making repairing cells “rescue” the aging skin by working overtime building as much collagen as possible.

That makes Sea Buckthorn a great ingredient in a vitamin C serum, as C provides the building blocks for collagen while Sea Buckthorn tells the skin to make collagen. Go team!

 

WHAT EXACTLY IS SEA BUCKTHORN?

A.K.A. the “wonder oil,” Seaberry or Hippophae Rhamnoides, Sea Buckthorn oil is extracted from small orange berries.

Sea Buckthorn Oil is like a who’s who of nutrients including vitamins A, B1, B2, C, D, E, K, and P; carotenoids; flavonoids; amino acids; phenols; folic acid; organic acids; 20 mineral elements, and essential fatty acids. It uniquely contains all four omegas: omega-3, omega-6, omega-7, and omega-9.

This cocktail of repairing nutrients is what makes Sea Buckthorn Oil so useful for general skincare and the repair of eczema, wounds, scars, stretch marks, and aging skin concerns including wrinkles and fine lines. It works wonders on the undereye area.

 

OTHER SEA BUCKTHORN FEATURES AND FACTS

  • Sea Buckthorn is very gentle and ideal for the undereye area and plump wrinkles and lines upon application.
  • Organic Sea Buckthorn oil can immediately reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines because it plumps up the skin.
  • A bit about these 200 nutrients, they have a variety of skincare applications, These nutrients have a variety of skincare applications including soothing the redness of sun damage, nourishing skin, providing C and E, and serving as a super-anti-oxidant.
  • Sea Buckthorn can make clear serums (like Vitamin C) appear opaque or cloudy.
  • Sea Buckthorn also gently but effectively treats acne and fades acne scars, including stubborn adult acne.

WHERE TO FIND PRODUCTS CONTAINING SEA BUCKTHORN

Sea Buckthorn is typically found in very expensive skincare product lines. We’ve located a few well-priced serums we like that contain Sea Buckthorn. They are:

  • InstaNatural Vitamin C Serum
  • Kate Sommerville Mega-C Dual Radiance Serum
  • Skin2Spirit Organic Caffeine Eye Whip Cream reduces puffy eyes
  • Supergoop! Forever Young Hand Cream with Sea Buckthorn SPF 40: to make hands, the often forgotten tell-tale sign of age, look younger.
  • Azure Naturals Vitamin C Skin Serum: Contains Hyaluronic Acid, helping that Sea Buckthorn sink deep into the skin
  • Valentia Skin Care Even Glow Serum really attacks forehead wrinkles
