You know you must be doing something right when you consistently run on no sleep and people tell you how good your skin looks. I have been using this luxury facial serum only a few days before there was a dramatic improvement. Dermaquest is a cosmeceutical brand, it applies high level science to cutting edge performance skin care.
The Dermaquest Stem Cell 3D Hydrafirm Serum (£220.00) contains Neodermyl – also known as needle free collagen and elastin filler. This combines with 5 powerful peptides and 5 botanicals and hyaluronic acid and it gives you instantly plumped up skin. What I like about this product is that it is fast acting. After a few days you REALLY notice it. After 2 weeks the effect is incredible.
It definitely works on diminishing smile and frown lines and those annoying little lines that recently appeared above my nose, the ones that I think of as headache lines, the ones that come with stress.
And here is the weird thing: I had what could be considered the two most stressful weeks of my life yet my face says the opposite. It is quite psychologically strange but in a good way. Your face says those terrible things aren’t happening to me. And that helps you cope, it give you strength to think : I look ok, maybe I am ok.
The serum is super hydrating; it provides what is known a dewy glow. I have never really realized what dewy glow meant. Dewy doesn’t sound particularly attractive, does it? But now I understand dewy. It is skin that looks rested, youthful, strong, and juicy. Its firmer in tone and texture and the cheeks are plumped out, not in an obvious “ I have had filler “ way, but in a I have just had a holiday where I had a month with 8 hours sleep per night kind of way. The botanicals involved are apple, gardenia, Echinacea, lilac and orange stem cells. They work in harmony to soften lines and to protect the skin. They are very protective, especially from environmental damage.
It really is a miracle serum, every day you put it on, sagging skin is impeded and youth is delivered. It retails at a pricey £220, but its effects are dramatic and it is subtle and clever. Cheaper and much, much better than a needle with fillers.
