We’ve sum up seven tried-and-true luxurious makeup and skincare treats. At $16-$30 price point these won’t break the bank.
1. Retexturize
Start with natural, gentle, and non-abrasive scrub. This Glycolic Scrub combines the exfoliating power of alpha-hydroxy acids (AHA) and the soothing effects of oat flour to accelerate the removal of dead skin cells and impurities from the top layer of the skin. This formula also contains aloe vera and essential oils to help soothe and hydrate the skin.
For all skin types, except highly sensitive skin or areas with broken capillaries.
GLYCOLIC SCRUB. $32.50 for 4 oz.
2. Nourish
This Peptide + Serum from Vera Moore latest Signature Collection utilizes nine natural botanical and marine extracts, essential oils, and anti-aging ingredients to tighten and enhance skin’s texture, dramatically reducing the visibility of wrinkles and mimic lines.
A clinical test with Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, a main ingredient, resulted in a 44% reduction of deep wrinkles, a 37% reduction in main wrinkle density and a 16% increase in lifting effect within 4 weeks.
