Cosmedica Skincare Vitamin C Serum – Review

June 18, 2014

I’ve been using a new product in my skincare regimen for the past month.  It’s a Vitamin C Serum from Cosmedica Skincare.  I use it twice a day following my regular cleansing routine.  This is a 20% Vitamin C serum that also contains other ingredients such as Vitamin E and Hyaluronic Acid.  This is the maximum percentage of Vitamin C available without a prescription.  Vitamin C is an essential component in the skincare routine to repair damage and help improve brightness and clarity, especially in aging skin.

Vitamin C is also known to stimulate the skin’s cells into producing collagen, which in turn will improve the elasticity.  Hopefully this will help wrinkles disappear and skin will appear tighter.  Vitamin C also helps to even out the skin tone and reduces dark spots and other damage that may have occurred through the years.  There are additional herbal extracts in this serum which provide anti aging skin benefits as well.
The 1 ounce bottle currently sells for  $22.95 on their website.   That is a great deal!  Cosmedica Skincare also has a Hydrating Night Cream and a Hyaluronic Acid serum that I will be incorporating into my skincare routine as well.  Future posts will review these products.  Go to their website and have a look around.  They have a 30-day, money-back, no question-asked guarantee on their products so you have nothing to lose!
It is very simple to add a vitamin c serum into your skincare routine.  After I wash my face (both morning and evening) I squeeze several drops of the serum onto my fingertips using the dropper.  I pat it all over my face.  After the product has absorbed I continue on with my routine.  This might include moisturizer, prescription products, sunscreen, etc depending on the time of day.
As a result of this product I see my skin looking brighter and basically happier.  I’ve only used it for a month now, so I’m excited to see how my skin will appear over the course of time.  I recommend this product to all women.  I think a good Vitamin C serum should be a part of everyone’s routine.

I like to shout from the rooftops when I find good I like to shout from the rooftops when I find good beauty products that work well for my mature skin in hopes that others will discover them too.

Be sure to let me know if there’s anything you’ve been loving lately too.💖

Today I’m including:
•a body makeup product that helps cover, disguise and blur my dark spots from sun damage from too many years spent in the sun.

•an at-home FDA cleared fractional laser to improve the appearance of my skin and even help get rid of some of those dark spots. I’m using it nightly.

•a beautiful pink lipstick that is like happiness in a tube

•an excellent facial spf product that protects my skin when I’m outdoors. I purchased mine when I was in France.

•some tasty gummy supplements I’ve been using including a multivitamin and a gummy prebiotic and probiotic combo to keep my gut happy

•and a balm that works great for keeping my skin hydrated that I like to dab under my eyes and on the lines above my lips because hydration helps make fine lines look better/less obvious when I look in the mirror.
We had a baby shower for my daughter this weekend We had a baby shower for my daughter this weekend and I wore this gorgeous dress that was perfect for celebrating my next grandson. I felt like the accessories complemented my outfit perfectly.

I’m feeling blessed and I hope you’re feeling the same as we kick off a new month.🩷

Guess what? Get ready for the day doesn’t have to Guess what? Get ready for the day doesn’t have to be time consuming or complicated. I can apply my makeup for a natural look in under 10 minutes and then I’m out the door. 

How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?

All of the products used in today’s Friday Finds are new to me in the last few weeks and work well for my mature skin. Let me know if you want DETAILS on anything you see here.🤩

I’ve learned that fine lines and dry skin don’t ha I’ve learned that fine lines and dry skin don’t have to be part of my everyday look. #OlayPartner 

I’ve been using the Olay Micro-Sculpting Cream, and I love how hydrated, smooth and refreshed my skin looks and feels. Our skin changes as we age and keeping it moisturized with effective ingredients is one of the simplest ways I keep mine looking firmer, smoother, healthier and more radiant at 61 years old.

The @olay Micro-Sculpting Cream has triple collagen peptides, niacinamide and pro-vitamin B5 to support younger looking skin.

If you’re looking for dramatic results without taking drastic measures, then this is a moisturizer you will be impressed with. It layers beautifully under makeup and delivers lasting hydration.

Comment your skincare goals and save this reel for your next beauty shopping trip.♥️
