2 Anti-Aging Ingredients Your 'Look Younger Products' Must Have

2 Anti-Aging Ingredients Your 'Look Younger Products' Must Have There are so many anti-aging products that have been doing rounds in the market since years. Still the cosmetics industry has new products adding onto this already-vast range of anti-aging products every now and then. How does a poor clueless customer make a choice then? Some choose to go by the popularity of the brand name, while others are carried away by impressive packaging. Image Source In all probability, there’s one constant you can always rely upon in choosing the right anti-aging product, i.e its ingredients. Without further ado, elaborated below are two of the most essential anti-aging ingredients that you should look for on a product label before buying it:

Klair's Rich Moist Soothing Serum - Review

Klair's Rich Moist Soothing Serum I am usually quite particular about the creams that I use at night. For day time I can easily go ahead with just a sunblock and a regular moisturizer, but for night time creams, I generally pay special attention to what I am applying on my skin. The cream should be effective enough to relax, regenerate and refresh my skin over the night, and gentle enough to not cause any discomfort in my sleep. So far the best cream for the night time that I've used had been Lancaster Aqua milk that just blends seamlessly into my skin giving a soft dewy finish. I even have used Lancôme Genifique Youth activating serum, but it was a bit too strong for everyday use. I use it only when my skin needs extra special care. However, in current monsoon weather with all its humidity around, even Lancaster aqua milk began to feel a bit greasy on my skin and would make my sweat slightly, so I was looking out for a cream or serum that I could use this time, which

Just Herbs AloeVera Facial Massage Gel - Review

I am usually not much of a massage person. I rarely take facial, though I love to apply face masks occasionally. Sometimes when I feel my skin to be quite dull and dehydrated, I do love to give them a little massage treatment using a mix of lavender oil and rose water. This particular massage gel from Just Herbs was my first ever facial massage gel.
