The "Duo" that saved my dry skin this last winter !

Par



Throughout my teens, the only step I could spare my skin was cleansing twice a day.
I always thought that having dry skin was a great convenience as it allowed me to enjoy a pimples-free skin as a teenager. 
But as soon as I entered my mid-twenties, my skin started getting rough, tight, flaky and itchy. And it gets worst every winter which means it was time for me to step up my skincare game. 
During this year's quest for hydrating skincare products, I came across the Goodal Green Tangerine Honey Moist Serum (50ml) + Ampoule Pack (30ml). 

The Goodal Green Tangerine Honey Moist Serum is a highly nourishing and hydrating serum enriched with Jeju green tangerine and Canola honey to give the skin long-lasting hydration. This serum protects the skin from free radicals as it is rich with antioxidants (Argan oil and  Curcuma Longa Root Extract) and bioflavonoids derived from Green Tangerine. 

 After the toner, I would apply 2 pumps of the serum to my face and neck before adding the ampoule. 


The serum texture is quite heavy as it feels like a gel-cream that creates a moisture layer but still the formula is fast-absorbing so it is safe to use even in mornings.  

 Special mention to the packaging of the serum that I really liked: it comes in a 50 ml bottle with a pump and with every pump you make the bottom is lifted to pour out the serum.

Ingredients: 

 Water, Butylene Glycol, Glycereth-26, Betaine, Diethoxyethyl Succinate, Glycerin, Niacinamide, Pentylene Glycol, 1,2 - Hexanediol, Camellia Japonica Seed Oil, Chondrus Crispus Extract, Saccharum Officinarum (Sugarcane) Extract, Melia Azadirachta Flower Extract, Melia Azardirachta Leaf Extract, Citrus Reticulata (Tangerine) Peel Extract (100ppm), Honey Extract (100ppm), Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract, Ocinum Sanctum Leaf Extract, Corallina Officinalis Extract, Royal Jelly Extract, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Propolis Extract, Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Glycol Stearate SE, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer, Stearic Acid, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Panthenol, Tromethamine, Sodium Polyacrylate, Ethylhexylglycerin, Adenosine, Benzophenone-4, Tocopheryl Acetate, Ascorbi Acid, Bioflavonoids, Cetearyl Alcohol, Carbomer, Xanthan Gum, Disodium EDTA, Frangrance (Parfum).


The Goodal Green Tangerine Honey Moist Ampoule is formulated with a high concentration of actives extracted from Jeju Green Tangerine and Canola Honey to moisturize, soothe and brighten the skin. 
After using the serum, I apply 4-5 drops to my face and neck before adding a basic moisturizer to lock in all moisture and the goodness of the serum and ampoule. 


This ampoule viscosity is higher than plain water but it does absorb easily into the skin and keep the skin moisturized. 

 My only concern was that Alcohol was pretty high in the list of this ampule's ingredient but surprisingly it did not dry out my skin. 

 Ingredients: 

 Water, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Glycereth-26, Niacinamide, Pentylene Glycol, Alcohol, Methyl Gluceth-20, Propolis Extract, Chondrus Crispus Extract, Saccharum Officinarum (Sugarcane) Extract, Citrus Reticulata (Tangerine) Peel Extract, Melia Azadirachta Flower Extract, Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, Honey Extract, Curcuma Longa (Tumeric) Root Extract, Ocimum Sanctum Leaf Extract, Thzeobroma Caco (Cocoa) Extract, Corallina Officinalis Extract, Dipropylene Glycol, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Panthenol, Dimethicone, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Capryly Glycol, Sodium Polyacrylate, Tromethamine, 1,2 Hexanediol, Lecithin, Adenosine, Polyquaternium-51, PVM/MA Copolymer, Dextrin, Ethylhexylglycerin, Bioflavonoids, Disodium EDTA, Fragrance(Parfum)


So I have recently emptied this duo and I am in love with how it kept my skin moisturized during all winter giving it a radiant healthy look so I can attest that it did live up to most of its claims. 

 This duo saved my skin this winter giving it the nutrients and actives it needs during winter's harsh weather.

 Have a radiant skin day everyone!

Vitamin C : The OG game-changer in skincare

If you are new to skincare, you have probably come across a few products that use Vitamin C as their main ingredient.  Vitamin C was discovered in 1930 and since then became one of the most well-researched and loved skincare ingredients. It is a superstar component that works as an antioxidant, anti-aging, and brightening nutrient.  Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin that if formulated properly will work as an excellent antioxidant as it protects the skin from free radicals that cause DNA damage to our skin layers. It works as a great protective factor into UV rays if used under a sunscreen since it is found that it boosts the UV protection. It also improves the production of collagen in the skin, speeds up the wound healing process, and helps fade pigmentation and dark spots.    Normal skin contains a high concentration level of Vitamin C but it gets lower in aged or photodamaged skin. It has been reported that excessive exposure to oxidant stress via  pollutant

The 7 Skin Method with Innisfree Ginger Honey Ampoule Skin

In 2017, the "7 Skin Method" went viral as the Korean beauty started getting more recognition in the west. The "7 Skin Method" is to apply your toner or watery essence to your face multiple times (up to seven times) to have hydrated and dewy skin. It is called 7 Skin Method since in Korea toners are usually called "skins".  I have been personally following the 7 skin method for a few years now and I highly recommend it for anyone struggling with dry skin as it will give your skin the hydration boost it needs especially during wintertime.  For this year's winter season, I used the Innisfree Ginger Honey Ampoule Skin for my 7 Skin Method as it claims that it can be applied once as a toner that quickly penetrates the skin and twice or more as an ampoule with a deep no urishing effect which is just perfect for the harsh weather in winter.  The Innisfree Ginger Honey Ampoule Skin is formulated with Gi-ney™ Complex, an Innisfree patent formula that
