Gio — Mon, 29 Apr 2024 12:15:00 +0000

What’s the best Vitamin C derivative out there? Yeah, yeah, ideally we should all use pure vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid). But that’s irritating as hell. Unstable AF. Goes bad before you reach half the bottle and stings your skin like crazy. Give me a derivative, pronto! But, which one? There are more than a dozen […]

Can I tell you a secret? I wouldn’t use The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane in my skincare routine. There, I said it. I know Granactive Retinoid is supposed to be the new retinol – minus the irritation. If it works the same and has no side effects, shouldn’t I be all over it? […]

Is Skin Actives Antioxidant Facial Serum The Most Cost-Effective Anti-Aging Serum?

Gio — Mon, 11 Mar 2024 13:15:00 +0000

The problem with antioxidant serums? They barely contain any antioxidants. Seriously, most brands pick one random antioxidant, add a couple of drops to the formula and tell you it’s better than Botox. As if… Skin Actives Antioxidant Facial Serum is one of the few exceptions to the rule. This baby is packed to the brim […]
