Brightening Treatments

During the winter months my skin can get dull and dehydrated and in the summer I deal with an uneven skin tone, so I am always on the lookout for brightening treatments and products. Most of these are exfoliants (mostly AHAs and BHAs) or serums/moisturizers with ingredients like Vitamin C, and many of them also have anti-aging benefits.

Alpha Beta Extra Strength Daily Peel - Step 1

This is Step 1 of a 2 step peel (Step 2 is below-I had to list them separately for some reason) that is quick and easy. For Step 1, you just use the wipe and swipe it across your face like you would with makeup remover (but avoid eyes!) and then wait for 2 minutes without rinsing.

It is a fast acting, 2-step daily treatment formulated to lift away dead skin while improving tone and texture. Step 1 cloth (Exfoliate and Smooth) contains 7 AHAs and BHAs combined. Step 2 (Anti-aging Neutralizer) contains retinol, green tea extract, resveratrol, CO-Q10, etc. First thing I noticed is the scent (Step 1)--it is STRONG (as expected because of the number of chemical exfoliants present). But the scent stays with the cloth, not on the skin. Step 2 cloth has no scent. To use, you first apply Step 1, wait for 2 mins then apply Step 2. No need to rinse afterward, just follow up with the rest of your routine. This is a game changer. I've barely dented the box (have used 8 pads to-date)  and I can already see huge improvement re: post acne scars, texture, tone. etc. Skin feels like a baby's bum every after use. This, however, is expensive--1 box retails at $88. But if you're looking for an at-home peel that works, this is definitely worth the try.

Alpha Beta Extra Strength Daily Peel - Step 2

This is Step 2-after you have waited 2 minutes, you use the wipe from this package in the same way, and that's it! You're left with fresh, glowy skin!

Flash Rinse 1 Minute Facial

This is one of my favorite products of all time! I would call it a Holy Grail, but I don't quite know which category it would be in. It's called a Flash Rinse Facial, and you apply it to clean, dry skin. It has a little bit of a grainy texture as you're massaging it in, but then you dampen your fingertips with water and massage again, and the water activates the Vitamin C in the product, which makes it warm up (which feels AMAZING!) and dissolve the grainy bits. You leave it on for 1 minute, rinse, and your skin looks brand new!

LOVE this product! I especially love that it's water - activated! That's incredibly helpful considering how unstable l-Ascorbic Acid is!

Exfolikate Intensive Exfoliating Treatment

Kate Somerville ExfoliKate is one of my Holy Grail products. Most exfoliators contain only physical exfoliants, which are those grainy bits that feel like a harsh scrub. Physical exfoliants often cause damage to the skin barrier which allows bacteria to get underneath the barrier, which can cause redness, inflammation, acne and other problems. ExfoliKate uses 3 different types of exfoliant: physical, chemical, and enzymatic. The physical exfoliant used is silica, which is very small and gentle. The chemical and enzymatic exfoliants, which include lactic acid, salicylic acid, pumpkin ferment extract, and papaya fruit among others, gently exfoliate without causing damage. They're effective because they dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells and gently slough them off. I also love that ExfoliKate only needs to be left on for 2 minutes, but makes it look like I've just had a 30 minute facial! After using it my skin is soft, smooth, and radiant. Sometimes when I'm using ExfoliKate I like to run the hot water in my sink as hot, drape a towel over my head, and lean over the sink to use the steam to get even better results.

With 11% AHA this power toner will perk your skin right up and remove all those dead skin cells. I use this every other night after working my way up. You can smell the Kombucha which makes this a delightful treat for your senses too. Filled with fermented tea extract, Lactic acid and glycolic acid. This power toner is also alcohol-free fragrance-free and essentialoil-free.

I like an invigorating product, this is very that. I literally had baby skin after this treatment. I used it when I had an interview at a bank and the entire interview I was distracted by my skin that was literally glowing from the lighting. I didn’t get the job but atleast I interviewed with bomb a** skin!

OVERALL: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 This little bottle truly is like a magic potion. If you are after that soft, dewy glow and can afford this in your budget then don’t hesitate! The formula is renowned for being effective in addressing skin tone and hyperpigmentation concerns. You’ll look radiant immediately and can see further results with consistent use. I find that the application is very easy with the dropper provided and there is no stinging when the serum is applied to the skin. I have had this bottle for approx 4 months and it has not oxidised. I keep it in my beauty fridge and apply it only in the mornings, immediately after cleansing and before my toners and serums. It pairs well with the Skinceuticals SPF. The visible results has me looking forward to my morning routine every day!

Potent-C Brightening Vitamin C Moisturizer

Even though this is technically just a moisturizer, I usually use it as more of a sleep mask/pack. It contains 10% THD Ascorbate, which is an ultra-stable form of Vitamin C that is 50x more powerful than traditional Vitamin C, and it's other ingredients work in harmony to amplify the brightening and anti-aging effects.

This is my very first Peter Thomas Roth product and I am over the moon about it! I received this moisturizer complimentary from Peter Thomas Roth. Recently I have really been loving Vitamin C skincare. I have extremely dry, full maturing skin, with lots of mine and deep lines. I absolutely love the benefits i have been achieving by using Vitamin C! 🧡 This Brightening Vitamin C moisturizer is packed with 10% THD Ascorbate Vitamin C, an advanced form of Vitamin C that helps to brighten the look of dullness, uneven skin tone and dark spots while improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It is supercharged with an Antioxidant Superfood Complex to help maintain and enhance brightening results. 🧡 This Potent-C Brightening Vitamin C Moisturizer is rich in Calcium, Zinc and Vitamins A, C and B3, Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramide NP and Hydrolyzed Collagen, Elastin and Trimoist KMF. One of the things I love about this moisturizer is that it literally addresses all my concerns, such as dryness, dull skin, anti-aging, uneven tone and dark spots. 🧡 I absolutely love this Potent-C Brightening Vitamin C Moisturizer from Peter Thomas Roth! It is a nice thick consistency, but doesn’t feel heavy on my skin. Once applied, my skin has an amazing glow! 🧡 My dull dry skin is no longer dull or dry, this moisturizer leaves my skin beautifully moisturized and bright. I’ve noticed that my skin has an amazing glow even when I have no skincare one. It has worked wonders for my skin concerns, even my fine lines are starting to look so much better. I definitely recommend! 🧡
