We all want clear, youthful skin - but how do we achieve this? Of course, as girls, we make sure we try everything that we can to get the results that we need to see. Some start with water cleansing, and a few consult with their dermatologists for the proper medication. Others, myself included, go the extra mile by searching for and experimenting with the best skincare products in the industry. It doesn't matter how much time, effort, and money we spend in doing so.

But let me save you from wasting your energy on all three. I've found the perfect skincare product for you - the Nu Essence Glutathione and Collagen supplements.

These two are bound to take you on an adventurous and fulfilling trip to beautiful skin. They not only help clear dark spots, but also aid in whitening and keeping your skin looking smoother. Don't worry about not seeing results asap. That's normal. It took me two weeks of taking these (once or twice a day for the best results), to see my acne scars slowly fading and the wrinkles under my eyes lightening. It's a slow but steady process - and that's exactly what we want!

It's definitely been an exciting journey with the Nu Essence Glutathione and Collage Supplements - a bright one at that as well! I recommend that you try these for yourself (after consulting with your derma for allergies, of course), and I'm sure you'll love the results as much as I do. 

 

Hope you enjoyed this blog post, everyone! See you guys in my next post/vlog :*

I used to think the whole skincare routine was just another lousy gimmick. I thought “14 products applied on your face every single night? That’s crazy!” But one day, I got curious and just felt like trying some of my sister’s skincare products. I tried some of her stuff for a week, and I was sooo happy to see the results! My skin felt so much better in so many different ways!

So now, I take my skincare routine seriously. I just stick to the basics, though – cleanse, tone, apply a serum, then moisturize – nothing too complicated. These past few months, I’ve tried so many different moisturizers and I’m just so glad I discovered the Avene Hydrance Optimale – Aqua Cream-in-Gel. It does everything that a moisturizer should be doing, and so much more. With the Aqua Cream-in-Gel, you can definitely expect nothing less from Avene.

All the moisturizing benefits of a cream in the light texture of a gel: anti-pollutant, antioxidant, calming, fragrant, and hydrating.

This hydrating multi-benefit care intensely and lastingly hydrates the skin, thanks to the combined action of Lipomucine and Meiboserine, protects the skin against free radicals,and unifies the complexion.

More than an all-in-one moisturizer, this complete care protects the skin against daily environmental agressions. Hydrated and soothed, your skin is ready to face the day.

What I love most about this product is that it’s so easy to apply and feels so refreshing every time I use it. It comes with a little spatula inside so that you don’t have to worry about it getting contaminated with unwanted bacteria. Just scoop out what you need and apply it effortlessly onto your face and skin! J

I usually apply this at night so that when I wake up, my skin feels soft and supple. Sometimes, I re-apply the Aqua Cream-in-Gel in the morning as well, before putting on foundation to serve as extra protection for the dust and dirt I face throughout the day.

 

I hope you guys get to try out the Avene Hydrance Optimal – Aqua Crème-in-Gel for yourselves! I really recommend it because it’s super worth it and you really get to see and feel its effects almost instantly! <3
