Crystal Clear Eye Pen

Crystal Clear Eye Pen

device designed for use anytime anywhere literally provides an alternative to eyelift surgery. It addresses the needs of everyone who wishes they could wave a magic wand to reduce lines and puffiness,while lifting and firming the skin around the eyes to give an instant, wide-awake look in seconds.

Portable, lightweight and refillable, the Crystal Clear eye pen is for everyone concerned about the ageing process.

NON INVASIVE SURGERY, JUST YEARS YOUNGER

This new, patented technology, the Crystal Clear eye pen, has been developed using the latest skin-science to offer an alternative to surgical solutions.

The eyes are often the first place that we notice ourselves ageing. The skin around the eye is the thinnest and most fragile skin found on the body. As the eyes are the central focus of the face, any wrinkles around the eye area are particularly noticeable puffiness, eye bags and dark circles under the eyes can make us look old and tired.

A STROKE OF GENIUS

Unlike any other product currently on the market, the eye pen’s innovative dual-action can stimulate new collagen and elastin formation while at the same time firm, lift and strengthen the muscles around the eyes, instantly.

Results are instantaneous as the pulsating action from the pen allows the active ingredients in the serum to penetrate through the epidermal layers to firm, plump and reduce the puffiness of the fine, delicate skin beneath the eye.

The eye pen is portable and designed for daily use anytime, anywhere. The light-weight serum is suitable for all skin types and refill cartridges are available.

The results are in… and the winner is… Dermalogica Anti-Oxidant Hydramist! Yes, this super spritz from the Dermalogica Age Smart line has been voted Best Facial Refresher by top glossy magazine Cosmopolitan in their 2009 Beauty Awards.

One of our biggest sellers and a favourite in the John and Ginger office since it launched last year, this multi-tasking mist instantly firms and hydrates skin, fights damaging free radicals and helps prevent premature ageing. What more could you want in a skin product? Just spritz and voila – perky, radiant skin!

This year’s expert judges included Cosmopolitan Editor Louise Court, celeb make-up artist Caroline Barnes, and pop stars Rachel Stevens and Alesha Dixon.

After rigorously testing hundreds of the best new hair and skin products on the market (sounds like a dream job!) and much debate, they whittled it down to their top must-have products that truly deserve one of their prestigious awards.

make friends with Double Cleanse . . .

Everybody’s always yapping about how “crazy-busy” they are. Including me.  dermalogica-cleansers-precleanse

But here’s the really bad news, you will spend more time reading this blog than you will cleansing your skin today. And that’s not good.

You probably spent less than a minute washing your face this morning or last night at the sink. Even less time if you wash your face in the shower. That’s just not enough to get skin into a pristine, receptive state.

Consider all of the high-tech cosmetic products which crow about their ability to last 12, 18 or more hours. Long-wearing foundations, waterproof mascaras, and the new nearly indelible lip stains which outlast talking, eating, smooching and what have you. And sunblocks are also notoriously indelible, made to last during strenuous outdoor sports. So getting this tenacious stuff off your skin each night requires equally advanced technology.

I recommend that you check out Dermalogica Precleanse if you’re in such a big hurry. Use it on your face before washing. It seems like an extra step, but it actually speeds up the process, make-up and grime just melt away.

The first cleanse just dislodges the surface debris. The second cleanse actually treats and preps the skin for exfoliation, moisturising and other skin care.

Getting skin really clean is the crucial starting-point for skin which resists damage, recovers well from trauma, and serves as a vibrant canvas for all of that indestructible make-up.

So, give it a minute, and then another minute—it’s the first step in a lifetime of healthy skin.
