Multi-technological peptide serum from a world famous The Ordinary brand.
Still a year ago I knew nothing about peptides in cosmetics. Generally used means for moistening because consultants in shops and in drugstore repeated that anti-aging means are necessary to women for 60, and me still very much and very much early. Then there were successful and not successful purchases of means, even an allergy to cream for a century from a pharmaceutical brand. I began to read, study many structures, ingredients and their action on skin. Began to choose more carefully means and even learned to order online on the European websites. But I got acquainted with The Ordinary only in September, 2018. A brand this unusual - to us is offered to learn to choose, combine and build the care of skin. If you do not own elementary knowledge of cosmetics, then it is possible to get confused easily in names and to buy not that it is necessary. There are means for different types of skin. At me combined, it zhirnitsya quickly because of high temperatures and humidity in the summer. But it does not mean that I need only easy moistening and matting. With age skin loses elasticity, produces less collagen and she needs to be helped.
The The Ordinary brand offers the whole complex of peptides in one means. In it the latest technologies existing today are collected: Matriksil of 2 types, Syn-ake (the peptide which is slightly slowing down deepening of mimic wrinkles), Argirellin - natural Botox, a complex of 11 amino acids, a gialuronovy complex and a probiotic of Lactococcus ferment Lysate.
Lactococcus ferment lysate is a new ingredient of probiotics which produce gram - positive bacteria, - Laktokokkus laktis.
The lysate is a liquid which turns out when cellular membranes collapse. It means that substance contains interesting components, including cytoplasm and fragments of cellular partitions.
According to the producer, substance positively influences the speed and quality of epidermalny growth, skin performs the barrier functions better and the quality of skin in general improves. Many brands began to use this enzyme: Pacifica, Lumene, The Ordinary, Missha, Tula, NIOD, Biossance and others...
Because of the high content of glycerin (it on the 2nd place after water), I could not use serum at air temperature +27'. As peptides at me in morning leaving, and my skin does not love congestion, to me was uncomfortable with it. It very much humidifies! There is no need to use day cream. Cream nevertheless is required to girls with dry skin. And to girls with fat and inclined to an acne, means will not approach absolutely.
When weather changed and became cold, I began to use "Buffet" daily in the mornings. Serum has no smell, there is enough couple of drops to put on a face, under eyes and on a neck from a decollete. It is distributed very easily, does not make heavier my skin, does not stick, on it my VV creams and powders perfectly lay down. It is combined with Uriage cream from a couperosis, with cream for a century from Mad hippie. For me it a universal product with one small shortcoming - at high temperatures I cannot use it. Now at +19-20' she behaves ideally.
The formula does not contain alcohol, silicones, gluten. Completely vegetarian it is also not tested for animals.
Has neutral rn 4.50 - 5.50.
The producer discloses not only a formula and level rn, but also specifies the total amount of active agents - 25.1%.
I am imposed by this openness and transparency in relation to buyers. Ourselves build the leaving and have to understand accurately that we apply to skin and in what sequence.
The producer warns that peptides should not be used along with fruit acids and ascorbic acid because for acids low level rn is necessary, and peptides work at neutral.
I see results from use: wrinkles on a forehead, for example, became less expressed, the general tone of skin improved, it looks younger. Here a merit not only peptides, and the complex care including antioxidants, peptides, Retinolum and ANA of acid.
Here so my skin looks now. I do not use tone, only VV cream and light powder.
And here a photo a year ago when I did not use still peptides and Retinolum but only moistening with means. Tone, powder from Clinique... On a forehead mimic wrinkles are more expressed. Perhaps, photos not accurately tell what I see in a mirror. But improvement is, to me it is noticeable, I am very happy with leaving, I like to support the skin in good condition.
Now I work on clarification of the general tone and some pigmentation by means of other means. I see results.
As for serum cost, it very budgetary, despite the rich and working structure. The brand is not going to raise the prices, it wants to remain available to all. In the same price range several new brands appeared, they compete with The Ordinary. I consider it correct, these are incentive to move forward and develop the new, improved formulas.
The joke which already appeared among byyutibloger was finally remembered. It is about comparison of the budgetary The Ordinary and expensive Drunk elephant. (Drunk elephant has inaccessible for me and many the prices, for one serum or one cream about 70 euros)
"You have to be drunk to order Drunk elephant, when you can buy the low budget The Ordinary.".
