PM ROUTINE December-January 2019
FIRST CLEANSE (CLAIMS)
A cleansing oil for the face and eyes that lifts away impurities and makeup (even waterproof mascara) without stripping away skin's natural moisture.
Notable Ingredients
Botanical Oil Blend (Green Tea Seed, Babassu Palm, and Coconut Oil)
Green Tea Leaf Extract
Ginger Root and White Birch Extract
Verdict
It is a little early to give a verdict on this product because I literally just received it. I used it a few night to break down makeup and it was decent . Will have a review in the coming weeks
SECOND CLEANSE
RHONDA ALLISON PUMPKIN CLEANSER (LACTIC ACID RINSE)
Pumpkin has a high content of vitamin A and beta carotene, two potent antioxidant ingredients. Combined with natural surface lipid reducers and essential oils, this natural, all-purpose daily cleanser not only provides a wonderful pumpkin spice aroma, but is gentle enough for ultra sensitive skin while providing a deep pore cleanse. Light aloe Vera based cleansing gel for all skin types.
Notable Ingredients
L-Lactic Acid
D- Beta carotene
Verdict
This is a really great cleanser for photo aged or dehydrated skin condition. For my PM routine I alternate between this cleanser and the citrus cleanser because even if this can be used by some people with sensitive skin , it still packs a punch. Will share the low down a week
TREATMENT
RHONDA ALLISON MANDELIC ARGININE SERUM
Amino acids , antioxidants and AHA that take skin through a gentle corrective process that works for all skin types.
Notable Ingredient
L-Arginine
Mandelic Acid
Verdict
This is my go to serum for spot treating those pesky bumps that sure up occasionally. It quickly soothes my irritated skin while working hard to get rid of the inflammation. For review click here
EYE CREAM
AMOREPACIFIC MOISTURE BOND REJUVENATING EYE TREATMENT GEL
A lightweight gel-cream formula that provides rich hydration to the delicate eye area and promotes a more radiant look.
Notable Ingredients
Bamboo Sap and 5-Hydra Complex
Caffeine
Beta-glucan
Verdict
Same as the Amorepacific treatment cleansing oil too soon to give real opinion. It feels great on but I am a little nervous because in the past I haven't had much luck with eye cream with caffeine in the formula. I will give a go and report back.
MOISTURIZE
RHONDA ALLISON ULTRA HYDRATION CREAM
A rich moisture cream that delivers and binds humectants within the epidermis.
Notable Ingredients
L -SODIUM HYALURONATE
Verdict
As the claims stated, it is a rich moisturizer with the oil. I love it but if you are not a fan of rich cream feel this may not be for you. Great for dehydrated skin
FACIAL OILS
GRAPESEED HYDRATING SERUM
Nutrient-enriched oil that provides the skin with a blend of vitamins and necessary antioxidants. It is a perfect add on to minimize free radical damage; it so soothing and hydrating.
FOCUS INGREDIENTS
GRAPE SEED OIL
Verdict:
I alternate my oils depending on the needs of my skin. This oil I love using for hydration . When my skin feels like it is about to crack from the cold, this is the oil I finish with instead of the ultra hydration cream or the Lapis oil.
HERBIVORE LAPIS FACIAL OIL
Hydrating face oil to balance skin while improving visible redness and blemishes.
FOCUS INGREDIENTS
Blue Tansy
-Plant-based Squalane
-Kuku Nut Oil
Verdict
Ever since 2017 when I tried Blue tansy AHA +BHA mask, I have been hooked on the brand. I have been eyeing this oil for a while but just didn't take the plunge. I finally did a few weeks ago and so far so good. It will be another four weeks at least before I can share my true opinion. Currently I alternate between the grapeseed hydrating serum on days I feel really dry and I use this when my skin is dry with a few spots here and there.
