Now that I’m firmly in my mid-twenties, I have been feeling like my skin is going through a quarter life crisis. I’ve had to start retooling my skin care regime, incorporating some new types of products I never needed in high school / college. For starts my once combination skin has become dry, dry, dryyyyy. I used to just reach for the oil free moisturizer & some zit cream, but now my skin is majorly craving major moisture. To combat the flakiness, I’ve started using the combo of Skinfix Moisture Boost Serum followed by their Hydrating Lotion. I’ve also swapped out my salicylic face wash for a Foaming Oil Cleanser that is a lot less harsh on my face. Last but not least I have started dipping my toe into the anti-aging pool by adding a Brightening Eye Cream.
One of the best parts about Skinfix isn’t all the stuff they put in but all the stuff they leave out. There are no fragrances, parabens, alcohols or sulfates (to name a few). Which is why these products are perfect for my easily irritated skin. If you need even more convincing, each product tells you exactly what percentage of natural ingredients it contains. For example the Foaming Oil Cleanser percentage is 97.5% – not too shabby right?
For skin as dry as mine has gotten, moisturizing alone clearly isn’t cutting it. The Moisture Boost Serum is the perfect catalyst to help repair my skin’s barrier and get it ready to absorb the Hydrating Lotion even better. Even though I’m layering multiple products both are lightweight formulas, so my face never feels greasy.
Since I have started using the Brightening Eye Cream, I definitely have seen a reduction in puffiness after I apply in the morning (the perfect remedy to all my long days of travel recently). I’ve also noticed that the dark circles under my eyes have already faded significantly.
Overall I am loving the effects of all of the products so far, and my skin is much happier with me. I definitely will think twice about the kind of ingredients I’m putting on my face in the future because clearly it makes all the difference. I’m so glad to have finally found a natural skincare line with clinically proven results!
