Missha Time Revolution The First Treatment Essence


It seems only fitting to start my blog with a review of one of my holy grail and favorite skin care products.  I have been using the Missha Time Revolution The First Treatment Essence for about 5 years now and cannot live without it.

First of all, what is an essence?  An essence is one step in the Korean skin care routine and is applied after toner, before a serum.  It provides a thin layer of extra hydration prior to the application of your serum and also helps your serum to work as effectively as possible.

The Missha Time Revolution The First Treatment Essence contains 80% fermented yeast extract, which promotes skin hydration and brightness.  Compared to its counterparts such as the SKII treatment essence, the Missha essence is affordable at $49.  I have tried the SKII treatment essence and it has a very pungent smell that I found bothersome every time I applied it.  I found the Missha essence to be just as effective as the SKII essence for a fraction of the price and without the strong odor.  Whenever I get lazy and do not use the Missha essence, I can tell a difference in the texture and brightness of my skin.  It is a product that I would highly recommend for all skin types.

M-61 Hydraboost Eye Serum

Here is my review of the M-61 by Bluemercury Hydraboost Eye Serum .  As I am in my mid-thirties, I have noticed gradual, unfortunately undesirable, changes in my under-eye area - the skin has become drier and more prone to the development of fine lines.  I was first introduced to the M-61 Hydraboost Eye Serum when I received one as a deluxe sample in one of my Bluemercury orders. M-61 Powerful Skincare is a brand created by the co-founder of Bluemercury and prides itself on combining powerful skincare ingredients without incorporating any parabens, sulfates, or phthalates. As described on the Bluemercury website, this eye serum "combines a trio of multi-action peptides to help improve the appearance of the eye area and reduce the appearance of fine lines, under-eye circles, and puffiness."  It contains aloe and centella asiatica for calming, licorice for brightening, and Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) and hyaluronic acid for moisturizing. Hyaluronic acid is a glycosa

All About AHAs - Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water by Wishtrend

Image
AHAs and BHAs, which are Alpha Hydroxy Acids and Beta Hydroxy Acids respectively, are very effective chemical exfoliants for your skin.  AHAs and BHAs help to smooth skin texture, brighten dull skin, and reduce the appearance of dark spots and fine lines. Thinking back to chemistry class, AHAs and BHAs are structurally distinct at the molecular level - the hydroxyl -group is attached to the carboxylic acid at the alpha -position in Alpha Hydroxy Acids and at the beta -position in Beta Hydroxy Acids.  AHAs are predominantly water soluble and thus work on the surface of the skin, essentially weakening the bonds between our skin and its dead skin cells, allowing them to be removed.  AHAs include glycolic acid, lactic acid, and my favorite, the more gentle mandelic acid.  BHAs are oil-soluble and work on both the surface of the skin and within the pores to remove dead skin cells, as well as dirt and oils.  In the realm of skin care, BHAs exclusively refer to salicylic acid.
