Regenerating Collagen Gel

Collin Result Time
Regenerating Collagen Gel


It's odd to come across a gel type moisturiser, when im so used to seeing serum's and cream. Designed to plump, hydrate and help the anti-ageing process this gel formula is a mixture of a cream and serum. the thickness of a cream, but it glides like a serum. Absorbs fast into the skin and has a fresh floral scent, which doesn't linger so you have no worries of you suddenly smelling like meadow if someone gets a bit to close. (and if someone was sniffing your face, i'd question their sanity anyway)


I have mostly tested this out on my mother, the swatch on my arm shows what I mean by the texture of cream but appliance of a serum. It does leave skin feeling hydrated, and gives a smooth texture, whilst im not totally convinced it's created more cells, and I don't currently possess the scientific equipment to check, it has on the surface improved the appearance and texture of the skin.  The smell is initially off putting and I wouldn't recommend it for sensitive skin types because of the perfume content.


It leaves a nice dewy glow (not oily looking) if your braving going bare faced!

Ginvera Exfoliating Gel

In my ever lasting quest for skin perfection, an Exfoliating Gel sounded like something that may unleash my inner good skin days that i know are waiting somewhere.. 


Ginvera is a brand I've come across a few times, and doesn't get to much coverage in the glossy's.


The gel is smooth, something you don't associate with an exfoliator, to be honest, its slightly odd, and doesn't feel like its scrubbing away the dead skin cells. Its a light texture and is certainly more gel like, and more on the side of a wash than an exfoliator. 

Despite the lack of beads, this is a lovely product my skin feels refreshed and clean, but not necessarily exfoliated. The green tea aspect is definitely a plus, and an ingredient associated with cleansing and freshness.
