Youthology Pure Bioactive Collagen

Do you want to reduce wrinkles, increase skin elasticity, improve the condition of your nails and hair, improve gut health and reduce pain and inflammation? I say yes, yes, yes! Youthology Pure Bioactive Collagen is clinically proven to do just that. And so much more.

Why do we need a collagen supplement? Collagen is essential for healthy skin, hair, nails, muscles and joints. We all want to look young, but I think feeling young should trump that. Collagen production starts to decrease from age 30 and that can have negative impact on the health of your skin, hair, nails, joints and muscles. This is where Youthology Pure Bioactive Collagen Powder comes in.

Youthology

YOUTHOLOGY PURE COLLAGEN POWDER contains specialised bioactive collagen peptides types l, ll & lll which are clinically proven to:

  • Significantly reduce wrinkles by up to 50% after 4 weeks.
  • Increase collagen in the skin by 60% with continued use.
  • Increase skin elasticity by 30%.
  • Improve growth and condition of nails and hair.
  • Improve gut health.
  • Increase lean muscle mass while decreasing fat mass.
  • Significantly decrease cellulite in 3‑6 months.
  • Improve joint mobility and reduce pain and inflammation within 3 months.

I’ve been diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis and the fact that Youthology Collagen can improve joint mobility and reduce pain and inflammation, made me jump at the chance to try this product. The health of my hair and nails has also declined because of the drugs that suppress my immune system. Illness and stress has also left its ‘mark’ on my face. I look old. I feel old. I think Youthology is helping my body to turn that around though. The long list of benefits of collagen, makes me want to kick myself for not starting earlier!

THE BENEFITS OF COLLAGEN

  • Supplementing with collagen helps to improve mobility and flexibility

  • Collagen supplementation helps to repair the intestinal lining, helping to heal IBS and leaky gut

I’ve been using Youthology Pure Collagen Powder every morning for almost 4 weeks. I take it in my coffee and I promise you, I can hardly tell. This product is truly a pleasure to use. My overall health is on the poor side at the moment and stress is taking over my life, but I think I’m starting to see and feel the difference. I believe that if I stick to it, I’ll be reaping the benefits. Of which there are so many!

Skinfrésh – It’s all about the health of your skin

Do you love organic, cruelty free, natural, and free-from-nasties skincare products? So do I. And I’ve discovered a range that will knock your socks off. I introduce Skinfrésh.

Skinfrésh – It’s all about the health of your skin

Skinfrésh is a South African face and body care range. Skinfrésh products are organic, cruelty free, vegan and all products are plant-based and free from harsh chemicals, artificial fragrances and colourants. The range is formulated for all skin types and ages. Skinfrésh believes that it’s all about skin health. And healthy skin = beautiful skin.

All the formulations are carefully put together taking all the properties of each oil, butter and essential oil into consideration to treat your skin no matter your age or need.

I received the Skinfrésh Renewed Youth Kit a couple of weeks ago and I am super impressed.

Can we please chat about the packaging and presentation first? WOW. Absolutely gorgeous. The containers and labels are super pretty and the box that the kit comes in, is stunning. When it comes to skincare, packaging is not on my priority list, but it doesn’t hurt if a range looks good. I was so happy to discover that the inside most definitely matches the outside.

Skinfrésh Renewed Youth Kit

The Skinfrésh Renewed Youth Kit contains a three step routine that consists of Renewed Youth Pre-Mist, Renewed Youth Hyaluronic Acid & Vitamin C Serum and Renewed Youth Myrrh & Frankincense Face Mousse.

I love that the kit’s instructions are engraved on the back of the Frésh box’s lid. Very cool, Skinfrésh.

Skinfresh Renewed Youth Kit

After a thorough cleanse (always double!), you spritz the Renewed Youth Pre-Mist all over your face and neck. This toner soothes, tones, hydrates and balances the PH of your skin.

Skinfresh Renewed Youth Pre-Mist

Properties of the active ingredients:
• It balances the skin’s natural oils.
• It can help reduce the look of temporary redness.
• It helps to naturally hydrate.
• It has antioxidant properties that nourish and protect the skin.
• It can help prevent fine lines and wrinkles and diminish the look of existing ones by keeping the skin hydrated.
• Witch hazel has many benefits for the skin, including relieving inflammation, tightening, and minimizing the pores.
• Rich source of antioxidants and vitamins that may help protect your skin.
• Soothes and repairs skin irritations.
• Use as an active spray in between workouts to refresh and hydrate skin.
• Contains Aloe Vera to soothe skin and can be applied to sunburned skin as an after spray.

The mist feels and smells lovely and is truly a pleasure to use.

Whilst your skin is still damp from the Renewed Youth Pre-Mist, it’s time to apply the Renewed Youth Hyaluronic Acid & Vitamin C Serum.

Renewed Youth Hyaluronic Acid & Vitamin C Serum

This is what Skinfrésh has to say about their serum:

Hyaluronic acid is a natural molecule found in our bodies. It holds the key to beautiful hydrated, plump, and glowing skin. It holds the ability to draw in moisture from the air into the skin. But thanks to ageing and environmental aggressors our cells lose the ability to produce this at a high level. HA is critical in maintaining skin hydration, reducing the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles, and giving your complexion a healthy glow.

Properties of the Hyaluronic Acid & Vitamin C Serum:
• Anti-wrinkle properties – due to its capacity to retain large amounts of water, skin stays moisturized and helps to prevent the development of wrinkles, and fills in already present wrinkles to reduce their appearance.
• Skin hydration – keeps your skin moisturized and radiant.
• Antioxidant – helps to keep skin looking healthy.
• Prevents breakout of acne.
• Keeps moisture locked in.
• Anti-Ageing, anti-bacterial.
• Vitamin C for skin brightening properties.
• Encourages new collagen to grow.

The serum feels great when applied and after only a few uses, I can already see that my skin is benefiting from twice a day use. Hyaluronic Acid & Vitamin C for the win!

Last step is to apply the Renewed Youth Myrrh & Frankincense Face Mousse.

Skinfresh Myrrh & Frankincense Face Mousse

This day and night cream had me a bit nervous as my skin has changed from slightly oily with dry patches to very oily over the last couple of years. Usually, a cream that mentions anti-ageing, tends to be a bit too rich for me. I was pleasantly surprised by this cream. It feels like it will be too rich, but once absorbed it gives just the right amount of moisture and care. It feels amazing. And it smells delish too. There have been a few days when it was a tad too heavy (this Cape Town heat has been crazy!), but I think it will be absolutely perfect during the cooler months. FYI: Renewed Youth Myrrh & Frankincense Face Mousse creates a perfect base for flawless make-up.

Here’s what Skinfrésh says about this beauty:

Our Myrrh and Frankincense Face Mousse is a miracle in a jar. By combining science and nature, we have formulated a face cream into a luxurious mousse like consistency that is a pleasure to slather onto skin.
• High in Vitamin E
• The astringent property of Frankincense oil has many benefits: It tightens and lifts skin, this astringent quality also reduces the appearance of wrinkles and combats the loss of firmness. Scars and marks of acne and blemishes on the skin fade at a much faster rate.
• Myrrh Essential Oil is purifying, restorative, revitalizing, and uplifting. It maintains healthy skin and soothes chapped or cracked skin.
• The Face Mousse is extremely hydrating and soothing when applied to the skin.
• Thick Mousse like consistency but melts at body temperature.
• Skin Brightening properties.
• Fights acne.
• Restores the skin ability to produce collagen.
• Anti-bacterial, anti-aging, anti-fungal properties.

This range truly ticks all the right boxes and I’m ready to try more. On my wish list is the Exfoliating Clay Cleanser, Vitamin C Night Repair Treatment and the Brightening Face Oil. And not to forget the Multi-purpose Body Balm and the Citrus Blast Body Lotion. Okay, you know what… I want everything!

Pop on over to Skinfresh and have a look at their gorgeous products. And try to resist. Or maybe don’t…

xoxo
