Avon ANEW Reversalist Infinite Effects Night Treatment Cream

Ageing is a natural part of life and with ageing, unfortunately, comes wrinkles.  If you keep up with us here at The Amazing Blog you'll know that we are always on the look-out for new anti-ageing products. Two things that we always look for in a good anti-ageing treatment are the ability to repair damaged skin and the ability to protect the skin from further wrinkles. We're happy to report that we have a product that claims to have both of our essential qualities: Avon’s Anew Reversalist Infinite Effects Night Treatment Cream. This is a rotational anti-wrinkle product that contains two different creams in one convenient pump action tube to help provide doubly effective results. We applaud Avon and their products as to date Avon has donated over £22 million to Domestic Violence and Breast Cancer charities. 

Now, you may be thinking that with two different creams it's going to be complicated to use… However, this product is actually incredibly simple to use. The product is used in two phases, phase 1 and phase 2. During phase 1 you simply apply 2-3 squirts of the cream labelled ‘1’ to your clean and dry face each night. You repeat this same routine using cream ‘1’ for 7 nights. After 7 nights, you switch to use cream ‘2’ keeping the same application procedure as phase 1. After 7 nights using the cream in phase 2, you simply switch back to using cream ‘1’ again and the cycle goes on again.

These two phases work together to help prevent uneven skin tone, reduce fine lines and fix dark spots. The two different phases have different purposes in treating the skin. The cream in phase 1 contains a phyto+ complex that helps to replenish and prepare the skin. The cream used in phase 2 contains a super-retinol complex, which specifically activates skins receptors to boost collagen and repair existing wrinkles. These two Night Treatment Creams feel light and creamy on the skin while they provide a deluxe anti-ageing formula. You can purchase your own Avon ANEW Reversalist Infinite Effects Night Treatment Cream here for £17.95.

Vita-Peptide Eye Gel - Environ

We at The Amazing Blog firmly believe in the adage that our eyes are windows to the soul. Our eyes reveal a lot about us and sometimes divulge a little more information than we would like. They show how well we've been sleeping, if we've had a bit too much fun at the weekend and if we're stressed. Therefore, any half decent skin routine should include an eye serum, gel or moisturiser to reverse and correct any of these unwanted and telling signs. Part of the reason our eyes are able to disclose so much, is that the skin surrounding them is so delicate and sensitive and therefore is easily affected by even the smallest of stressors, so it's imperative to protect this skin from premature ageing. We can think of few eye care products that can do more for the skin surrounding your eyes then Environ's superb Vita-Peptide Eye Gel. 

Vita-Peptide Eye Gel contains a unique formula of powerful vitamins, antioxidants and peptides. Tocopheryl Acetate, which is a form of vitamin E  and a strong antioxidant, enhances your skin's natural sun protectors helping to encourage skin to become stronger and healthier over time. The specially crafted formula contains five amino acids which have the advantage of not irritating skin, as well as rehydrating and plumping skin to give it a more youthful appearance. The plumping effect, along with the low levels of vitamin A help to reduce the visible appearance of fine lines and are effective in preventing their development. Overall, the eye-gel leaves skin looking brighter and healthier, which in turn will leave you looking healthier and brighter!

It’s recommended you apply the eye gel twice a day, morning and evening, on clean skin. Due to high levels of active ingredients, Environ cannot be purchased online without an over-the-phone. You can buy the eye gel for £32.00, by either calling 020 8438 3282 and have your consultation at the same time or alternatively, you can click here to find you nearest stockist.

Rosehip Oil, Rosehip Oil with Vitamin C and cellular radiance serum - [A'kin]

The idea of 'pure' ingredients may not seem like something you’ve thought about, or if you have, it might sound like a fanciful dream, but we here at The Amazing Blog have found the reality. [A’kin] is a brand which defines itself by its dedication to “the power of purity.” Their products undertake a unique process to ensure that their ingredients are: properly researched for their health and beauty benefits, extracted in their purest and most beneficial form, and selected and tested for synergy and skin compatibility. As such we had high hopes and expectations for the two oils and one serum we tried.

Both of the [A’kin] Oils we tried used Rosehip as the basis of the products, but both achieved different results. Rosehip is rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids which help to give skin a youthful and healthy glow. Rosehip is also full of Omega 3, 6, and 9 which help to restore moisture as well as nurturing and rejuvenating the appearance of skin. The first Rosehip based oil we tried was the Brightening Rosehip Oil with Vitamin C, and we can honestly say it did everything it said and more! Our skin felt brighter and clearer, as the Vitamin C in the oil acts as a powerful reviving antioxidant helping to neutralise free radicals, clear up the skin, all the while keeping it hydrated and fed! While the Brightening Rosehip Oil with vitamin C is suitable for all skin, the Pure Radiance Rosehip Oil is better suited for dry and or sensitive skin types. This oil left our skin feeling smooth and deeply hydrated. The oil is enriched with pure active botanicals and contains only two ingredients: rosa canina seed (rosehip) extract and rosemary leaf extract. [A'kin] Pure Radiance Rosehip Oil has a concentration of Omega essential fatty acids that is no less than 80%!! This award winning Rosehip oil helps to restore moisture and helps reduce the visible signs of aging. The result is vibrant, glowing and healthy radiant looking skin.

The [A’kin] Revitalising Cellular Radiance Serum was a fantastic anti-aging serum that completely rejuvenated our skin, restoring youthfulness. The powerful serum combines 6 organic and certified extracts: pomegranate amaranth, seabuckthorn, rosehip, calendula, and chamomile. All of which help to moisturise skin, while firming it up. It’s no wonder, therefore, that in a recent study on 32 women aged 50 and over, the serum was shown to improve skin texture by 84%, skin radiance by 69% and reduce wrinkles by 22% over a three month period. What more could you want from an all natural anti-aging serum!

At the base of the treatment a silk a floral bouquet bathes the face in moisture, while juniper and sage help to protect the skin from free radicals and pollution.

All the ingredients help give the product a naturally fruity and delightful scent, which will certainly keep you coming back for more!
