Dermo28 Skincare

Italian formula Dermo28 for skin and eye care has already carved its niche with The Amazing Blog. The four products that caught our eye (excuse the pun!) are the Dermo28’s Eye Complex an eye treatment for wrinkle reduction; the Recovery Cream which is a sensitive skin soothing cream; Cream Acida a pH balancing treatment and Regolatore pH a pH balancing toner. Dermo28's name was chosen carefully, as 28 is the number of days it takes for cells to regenerate.

Dermo28’s Eye Complex is a favourite eye treatment pick for wellness enthusiasts. The presence of vitamin C in its plant form is characterised to restore firmness and compactness to the sensitive skin around the eye area. High traces of aloe vera and pro-vitamin B5 provide optimal moisturisation and soothing to the area. Using this eye cream will make the eyes relaxed, refreshed and rejuvenated for an eventful day and offering a peaceful sleep available at £54 for 15ml.

Recovery Cream is a highly sensitive skin friendly cream, which is devoid of all allergens. It is a handy skin-nurturing package for all kinds of skin irritation, soothing, protection and nourishment. We love the silky feel and the fragrance. The key ingredients are ceramides, argan oil and liquorice extracts, together with vitamin E and C, olive oil and allantoina which is for elasticising, soothing and moisturising. Available for £59 for 50ml.

Crema Acida and Regolatore pH are two products designed to work in tandem. A perfect combination that addresses blemished skin by refreshing and rebalancing. Designed to restore the skin's natural acidity level and rebalance pH levels.  The Cream Acida is the first step, apply after thoroughly cleansing the skin, smoothing a thin layer onto the face. It contains a combination of vitamin C and E, hydraterm and hyaluronic acid. It also has cypress for soothing, shea butter and lemon balm for their moisturising qualities. After a minute allowing it to sink in, it is then cleansed off with the Regolatore pH balancing toner, which calms any irritation and corrects the acidity levels in the skin preventing any bad bacteria. Again this contains ingredients of vitamin C with hyderaterm and hyaluronic acid, which work together with succinct acid for detoxifying and an antioxidant effect; the cypress extracts create a stimulating effect for microcirculation. Purchase the Crema Acida in 75ml for £50 and the Regolatore pH in 200ml for £40.

Estée Lauder - Perfectionist Youth-Infusing Makeup SPF 25 and Sculpting Foundation Brush

Are you tired of beauty products lying all over your house? Estée Lauder’s Perfectionist Youth-Infusing Makeup SPF 25 combines two necessary beauty products into one; it’s a makeup that acts like a skincare treatment. I don’t know about you, but that sounds like it would make the morning regimens of everyone here at The Amazing Blog a little bit easier.

This makeup is infused with Estée Lauder’s youth-enhancing Perfectionist Serum technology that delivers real skincare results. With Advanced Amino Acids and Wrinkle Lift Restructuring Peptides, your skin can rebuild and form smoother, firmer looking skin while also reducing lines and wrinkles. Its Nourishing Moisture Complex quenches the skin with oil-free moisture, and the Intuitone Pigment Technology guarantees true-to-life shade matching by working with skin’s natural undertones. It will softly highlight and define facial features while brightening the skin. The best part? Its Priming Beads instantly fill lines so all of your imperfections will magically disappear.

Although your choice in foundation is important, how you apply that foundation is as equally important. Estée Lauder designed the new Sculpting Foundation Brush specifically for the new Perfectionist Youth-Infusing Makeup.

Its angled, ergonomic shape hugs the contours of the face and the synthetic and natural fibres create a seamless application and blending.

If you are looking to purchase the Perfectionist Youth-Infusing Makeup, you can take your pick from 22 long-wearing shades here for £37.00. The makeup is appropriate for all skin types and tones, and for the best results, apply to clean, moisturised skin using either your finger tips or the Sculpting Foundation Brush, which you can buy here for £37.00.

Docteur Renaud's Iris Lift Pore-Reducing Gel-Cream

Here at The Amazing Blog, we understand that as we age, our skin unfortunately ages as well. As you age, you may begin to notice wrinkles, your pores becoming more visible, or your skin losing its shine. Thanks to Docteur Renaud’s new Iris Lift Pore-Reducing Gel-Cream, you can reduce these pesky ageing effects and go back to looking like a younger version of you. 

Docteur Renaud uses Iris for all of its age defying formulations because of its ability to strengthen the skin. The anti-ageing properties of Iris limit the breakdown of protein and collagen while maintaining the quality of the membrane between the dermis and epidermis. Maintaining the membrane restores the firmness and tone of the skin, reducing fine lines and decreasing wrinkle depth.

The Iris Lift Pore-Reducing Gel-Cream provides complete anti-ageing care, tackling all the signs of ageing by bringing together three Iris extracts. The combination of the Iris Cell Extract, Iris Polyphenols and Organic Iris combat fine lines and wrinkles, restore firmness and elasticity to the skin, reduce visible pores, and deliver a radiance-boosting effect. Pistachio Tree Resin, Jojoba Oil, Macadamia Oils, Hyaluronic Acid, and Docteur Renaud’s Phyto-Oxygenating complex also help provide a boost of radiance to the skin, while moisturising and strengthening it as well.   

After using the product, 96% of 22 women interviewed said their skin felt smoother, firmer and more plumped up. We couldn't agree more!

Created for normal to combination skin types, the light cream will melt effortlessly into the skin, leaving it looking younger and feeling silky soft. For the best results, apply the Iris Lift Pore-Reducing Gel-Cream morning and evening on the face and neck area.

Docteur Renaud Iris Lift Pore-Reducing Gel-Cream is available here at £44.00 for 50 ml. 

Mama Mio!

Having crept into my late twenties earlier in the year, I've reached a point in life where the time has come to take a bit of extra care when it comes to my beauty regime. And with a plethora of products available on the market, promising everything from plumper lips to firmer skin, it's often hard to know where to start. And so, when I was  recently recommended Mama Mio, whose moto is 'Fit Skin For Life' by a friend at The Amazing Blog, I was eager to put their products to the test.

Founded in London by four beauty experts, Mama Mio was created to solve skincare issues that they themselves wanted to overcome, thus guaranteeing a target market of women with the same beauty dilemmas. With a wide range of products available, Mama Mio caters for everyone; offering skincare solutions for both face and body.

I tried the Boob Tube Bust & Neck Firmer, whose ingredients include Avocado Oil, Shea Butter and Milk Thistle keep skin nourished, plump and youthful. I'm happy to report that having used it for the past few weeks I've noticed a definite improvement in the texture of the skin on my decolletage, which, much like skin under the eyes is thin, delicate and lacking in elasticity. And such is the care put into Mama Mio's products that the body range can just as confidently be used on the face; thus the Boob Tube Bust & Neck Firmer can double up as a fabulous face cream.

Having won five skincare awards, the Boob Tube Bust & Neck Firmer regularly sells out, so grab yourself a tube and begin reaping the benefits straight away! Available online and from a number of independent stockists.
