If you have uneven or even dull looking skin, this peel will help exfoliate your face and leave you with a brighter and younger look.

This Gentle Peel Solution from Dermaglow is supposed to be the solution for our skin’s woes. By using this peel it will take away any dry or dehydrated surface skin cells and reveal the younger skin underneath as well as help us hide any wrinkles or fine lines that are sneaking up on us.

Vivier C E Kinerol serum
Review submitted by our product reviewer Eleni
While watching Dr Oz on TV the other day, I thought that he made an excellent analogy discussing the need for antioxidants both through a healthy diet and also applied on the skin to assist in anti-aging. The way that he explained this was by showing an apple cut in half – one half looked perfectly fresh while the other half had starting turning brown. You guessed it – the fresh looking half had lemon juice (vitamin C) sprinkled on it while the brown half had no protection against the oxidation process that just occurs naturally with our environment.
Vitamin C has come a long way since it was first introduced as a skin product. It used to be unstable and lose its effectiveness quite easily, not to mention quick changes in colour and consistency. The scientific geniuses have figured it all out and now we can find really good products containing vitamins quite readily. The absolute best I’ve ever had a chance to experience is the serum I’m writing about today.
Vivier C E Kinerol serum promises to repair, correct, nourish and protect. I was a bit concerned when I saw how small the sample of serum that I had to work with was. We usually try to use a product for 3-4 weeks before writing about it in order to give a well thought out and informative review. It makes me wonder when companies that want their products reviewed send only very small samples, especially for a product like this that promises to improve skin texture and look. That’s the type of thing that normally doesn’t happen overnight. I do understand about the small sizes that are sometimes being sent out because there are bloggers out there just looking for freebies and likely have little to no intention of following through…but that’s not us. We truly do all the work that we commit to doing. In any event, I had nothing to worry about… Vivier C E Kinerol serum started working right away!

Here’s another daytime product from Dr. Nicholas Perricone that you can try out.
This is the Advanced Face Firming Activator that’s aimed at reducing the appearance of large pores, lines and wrinkles on your face. In addition to that, the formula also helps improve your skin tone and gives you a smoother look.
There is an abundance of benefits that this product holds. It almost sounds like an alternative to things like Botox with moisturizing additions to improve your skin’s condition. Not only does it lessen the amount of wrinkles and fine lines you already have but it also works at clearing up your face, improving its quality and lifting and tightening it at the same time.

REVIEW: Genie Instant Line Smoother
Review submitted by our product reviewer Eleni
Yes – I’d line my lines to look smoother instantly – like NOW! Could Genie Instant Line Smoother really do that?
Even Botox takes a few days to settle in and relax those very strong frown muscles. Why do frown muscles have to be so powerful anyhow? We don’t purposely try and work out those muscles, do we? And why can’t stomach muscles be that strong naturally without having to do 100 sit ups each day?
Okay…right – life isn’t always fair. Give me that line smoother and let’s see what I can do with it.
I’m always on the lookout for a new serum, line smoother or eye product. Even beyond the requirements of this job as a reviewer, I’ll always stop and check out something new at the beauty counter. And those cosmetic companies seem to know that we all have anti-aging products on our minds because there has never been a proliferation of so many products in this class until the last few years.

Derma DNA Cellular Repair Treatment
Feature by our Editorial Assistant Colleen
Eyes are the windows to our soul. Remember that saying?
Eyes may be that window that lets others in, but they also give away another thing, our age. For so many years I’ve heard many people around me panic when they find a new wrinkle in the corner of their eyes.
If you’re tired of using anti-aging eye creams, DermaDNA Cellular Repair Eye Treatment is an alternative you might consider trying.
This repair wrinkle cream fights the aging effects, particularly around the eye, and damage caused by UV rays.
The product uses BioDNA, an advanced complex dermaDNA uses on their products to fight those damage on your skin. It is supposed to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improve your skin tone, give your skin more elasticity and even take away dark circles under your eyes. The effects should start to become obvious within a few weeks.
