Vichy Normaderm New Tri Activ Anti Imperfection Hydrating Care – My package, Preview, Photos

Hi everyone!

Do you remember my post about Vichy’s contest to win a free sample of  Normaderm Tri Activ Imperfection Hydrating Care? Those of you who took part and build your favorite bag on Vichy’s facebook page had the chance to try the New Normaderm Cream.

Yesterday I just got a package with lots and lots of samples of this product. Is suitable for oily imperfection prone skins and even the most sensitive ones so I’m really curious to test it out since my skin is both sensitive and oily.

Hi everyone!

Collistar launches its new Special First Wrinkles Line, created to tackle skin problems emerging when it is too soon to use an anti-age product but too late for the basic specialties.

An increasing number of young women, in fact, feel the need to use high-tech and high-performance cosmetics to prevent signs of aging, which today make their appearance earlier than a few years ago, due to greater stress, increased pollution and a more unhealthy lifestyle.

The formula of the Special First Wrinkles Line is based on the combination of 3 high-performance active principles, each selected for its capacity to act specifically on the various problems of the skin: Oligopeptide 20, extract of Litchis and Trehalose. These active principles work together to ‘nip in the bud’ the first signs of skin aging.

Blanc de la Mer Collection + New products

The Max Huber Research Labs  discovered years ago the common secret of women – highly refined skin.  that many women share a common secret – highly refined skin.  Their skin cells are perfectly aligned and exceptionally close together, creating a surface that is completely unique. Especially delicate and thin, it is more vulnerable to environmental influences that often lead to discoloration, freckling and unevenness.

 Blanc de la Mer Collection + New products

With this knowledge, Max Huber Research Labs created Blanc de la Mer - a pioneering collection designed with precious natural ingredients to gently and optimally benefit the most delicate skin.

At the heart of Blanc De La Mer’s The Whitening Lotion and The Whitening Essence is an exclusive Whitening Sea Ferment with the power to transform the skin.

Blanc de la Mer Collection is already available in the U.S. but if we were to talk about Asia, then it’s a different story. In Asian countries Blanc de la Mer collection includes a larger number of products, but I’m going to make a list with all the products included in this collection even though they are not available worldwide.

Blanc de la Mer collection contains:

La Prairie – The Platinum Collection – Photo, Prices and Information

Maybe you’ve all noticed my interest on La Prairie’s products. I’ve been using some of their products for more than  a year now and I’m more than happy with the results. Last year I even held a giveaway with my favorite La Prairie cream for eyes (review here) and I’ve tried to find out what you think about this brand and its products.

La Prairie Platinum Collection La Prairie   The Platinum Collection   Photo, Prices and Information

Many of you were thrilled about the ingredients and anti-aging effects that these product have but I know the main problem remains the price. I’ve done several reviews on anti-aging products but I’m telling you La Prairie is high class when it comes to keep your wrinkles away for a long time.

 La Prairie   The Platinum Collection   Photo, Prices and Information

What many know about La Prairie are their high prices, but don’t be so quick judging because La Prairie is not only a luxury brand. It has always been the top anti-aging company in research and development and has a number of achievements in the beauty industry.

For the New Platinum Collection the Platinum Essence laboratory used the same innovative technology “3D Lifting network” and a breakthrough ingredient. What you can expect from this collection is a feeling of a real smooth skin. The formula with peptides will stimulate the collagen that will reduce wrinkles.

La Prairie launches a new package of 30 ml platinum cream that is included in this collection.

Preview: La Mer Oil Absorbing Lotion

Another quick preview I’ll be making today is on the Oil Absorbing Lotion from La Mer, which is actually a lighter version of the original Creme de la Mer on which I’ve already done a preview where you can read more about its secret formula and key ingredients.

As I said on my review on Creme de la Mer, since my complexion is oily I wanted a product more suitable for my skin that could have they same ingredients as the original one and the Miracle Broth.

La Mer Oil Absorbing Lotion Preview: La Mer Oil Absorbing Lotion

The new version specially created for oily skin types is the Oil Absorbing Lotion that I’ve been using for a couple of days now and I will review (new photos, important details and my whole experience with this product) in the next few weeks.

La Mer Oil Absorbing Lotion is a an oil-free, oil-absorbing fast-penetrating formulation that hydrates, yet leaves a soft matte finish for hours – perfect for nomal-to-oily and oily skins.

The Oil Absorbing Lotion contains the same amount of renowned Miracle Broth as the original Creme de la Mer. It possesses all the coveted benefits of the original Creme without compromising any of the extraordinary properties that make Creme de la Mer a skincare legend.

Review: Creme de la Mer – A miracle come true

Creme de la Mer is where miracles begin. I’m skeptical about miracles sometimes too but this one sounded so good that it must be true. So I decided to try this cream and see the effects on my own skin.

I wrote a preview for this moisturizing cream a few days ago, where I talked about its ingredients (which are all natural), what you should expect of it, the price, how it was made and by who. So, if you are interested in those details please read the preview here.

Creme de la Mer Moisturizing Cream Review: Creme de la Mer   A miracle come true

I’ve been using this cream for more than 6 weeks now, and I figured it’s just about time to make a review. I like to test the creams for a longer period of time, especially the ones who claim to be anti-wrinkle because you have to give them time to adapt with your skin and until you will see the effects it will take a few weeks, depending on the cream.

I’ve been using good creams before this one too (even anti-wrinkles) so I can’t really say that I had a lot of wrinkles, puffiness and dark circles. I always used face and eye creams and I took very good care of my complexion.

I just turned 28 in the beginning of December so I’m qualified for testing anti-wrinkles creams, because I’ve also start using them for over a year now. It is said you should start using anti-wrinkles creams not when you notice your first lines but long before that because you want to prevent their appearance.

First of all I want to let you know that I have an oily type of skin. If you girls have the same you know for sure that it takes special care and you always try to fight shine (at least I do). I have been searching for creams that will be absorbed fast by the skin without leaving my complexion looking oily but I can’t say that I’ve found the perfect one yet.

Preview: La Mer – Moisturizing Cream

Do you believe in miracles?

If miracles are defined as unique events that appear inexplicable by the laws of nature, then surely Creme de la Mer is a miracle. I’ve been using this cream for more than a month now and it truly changed the way I see myself.

Preview La Mer Moisturizing Cream Preview: La Mer   Moisturizing Cream

Creme de la Mer was conceived under extraordinary circumstances after physicist Dr. Max Huber suffered severe chemical burns, years ago, while performing a routine experiment. 12 years and some 6.000 experiments later he perfected the Creme that would help give skin a dramatically smoother appearance.

The formula

At the heart of the Creme is a highly potent Miracle Broth. There is nothing miraculous about its ingredients – sea kelp, calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron, lecithin, Vitamins C, E and B 12, plus oils of citrus, eucalyptus, wheat germ, alfalfa and sunflower. The way these ingredients were distilled made the difference between a good moisturizer and a small miracle. Huber discovered that an amazing thing transpired as these ingredients journeyed from individual components into a nutrient-rich Miracle Broth – a process that took 3-4 months to complete.
