I have been wanting to try this brand for sometime but as it is quite pricey I'd resisted, but when I was given the chance to try something from the brand I jumped at the chance - Sarah Chapman Skinesis Morning Facial* contains potent actives that deliver protection from environmental aggressors and deal with inflammation. As well as intensely hydrating the skin, it also regulates sebum production with its serum/oil hybrid formula. It boosts collagen to increase firmness and elasticity. If your skin is looking dull or tired, or it just needs a bit of a boost for a special occasion.
How it works..
Brightening – Maracuja oil (passion flower) is rich in vitamin C, calcium and phosphorus. The high content of essential fatty acids can stimulate the production of fibroblasts, cells that make collagen. Timecode inhibits free radicals (MMP’s) & Collagenase preventing the breakdown of the Extracellular Matrix and the synthesis of key genes. It prevents inflammation, which is now considered the main cause of premature skin ageing.
Defence – Vitamin A effectively protects against UV-induced collagen destruction and photo-damage by boosting cell renewal and increasing collagen fibres in the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Kalpariane: An algae that helps protect the skin’s firmness and elasticity while boosting the synthesis of collagen and hyaluronic acid. It protects the skin efficiently with its anti-oxidant properties, a free radical scavenger, and an anti– collagenase.
Hydrating – Hydrasourcing is a complex of Mexican poppy cell and polysaccharides to correct skin imbalances at their source, repairing the skin’s moisture barrier. Argan Oil and Nyamplung oil contain up to 80% linoleic and oleic fatty acids, tocopherols and phenolic acids which help to repair damaged cells.
Plumping – Juvinity protects cells from oxidative damage, Ultra Filling Spheres: low molecular weight hyaluronic acid and high molecular weight polysachharides are merged to swell and visibly smooth fine lines and wrinkles acting like a skin primer.
Wrinkles – Gatuline Intense works on the skin’s natural lifting properties by stimulating the fibroblast biomechanical functions helping to re-organize the dermis structure and visibly smooth the skin surface. Collageneer effectively increases skin firmness and elasticity by stimulating Type 1 Collagen synthesis. It also stimulates fibroblasts where it specifically ensures that a very high quality Collagen is produced.
How I use it..
I squirt a couple of drops into my palm, rubbing my hands together gently to warm it up, I then massage it into clean, dry skin. It has a beautiful jasmine and neroli aroma, which is lovely to wake you in the morning! Make sure you don’t use too much – a little goes a long way – it will sink beautifully into the skin, leaving you looking refreshed, youthful just like you've had a restful nights sleep.
At £45.00 for 15ml, it is a luxury product, but as you only need a couple of drops each time and maybe only need to use as a weekly treat it should last you a good while. I have been using 3 times a week for the past fortnight and my skin does look more refreshed, as I'm currently suffering from pregnancy insominia it stops me looking like a sleep deprived zombie! Woo hoo :)
