Achieve Flawless Radiance With The L’OCCITANE Iris Angelica Skin Perfecting Duo

Being a mother of two girls, with a permanent job and actively blogging; time is really precious to me. I always wish to leave home with flawless bare-faced, wearing only skincare and a bit of necessary sun protection however I am hesitate because I have uneven skin tone, visibly open pores and rough skin texture.

Are you ready to unveil the New Iris Angelica?

Last week, I found that L’OCCITANE has launched Iris Angelica, a brand-new skincare that’s specifically formulated to offer every woman the option of stepping out of the house without needing to enhance her complexion with makeup.

Iris Angelica contains a patented* combination of two slender flowers from France, each with an exceptional property: Angelica from the Drôme region – which is an expert in hydration, and Iris Florentina from the Hérault region – a precious ingredient known in pharmacology for its radiance-enhancing action.

After many months of research, the L’OCCITANE Laboratory was finally able to reveal the cosmetic properties of the active ingredients found in the iris. Organic extracts of the rizhomes of both the White Iris (Iris Florentina from the Hérault region) and Blue Iris (Iris Pallida from Italy) promote the epidermis’s cell renewal process, to visible reduce redness and help prevent the appearance of blemishes.

In 2010, L’OCCITANE discovered and patented* the combination of two extracts taken from the roots of Organic Angelica from the Drôme region.

I like that Sublime Essence is silicone-free. I apply it to my face and neck each morning after cleansing and toning, before the Sublime Beauty Cream.

Dynamic.Cosmetic.Science - Dermedex

Awhile ago Dermedex contacted me for product review. I know that Dermedex is a Singapore-based company that is a distributor of many beauty products to spas and beauty parlors; and their skin care products is marketed as providing “surgical result without surgery”.

Dermedex courier the Bio'tox Cleanser (10g X2); Soothing Emulsion (5g) and Refining Cream 2 (5g) to my house. Let's see how I feel of them.

Dermedex Bio'tox Cleanser

At first I thought, what ?  “Botox” cleanser? No, it's actually "Bio'tox" cleanser. Dermedex Biotox Cleanser is based on active natural ingredients, which deeply cleanses and unclogs pores while helping to reduce the dry, thickened, outer layer of the skin. Regular use will help reveal a fresh, clearer, brighter complexion to dramatically reduce the visible signs of ageing, restoring the supple, glowing effect of healthy skin.

The cleanser is milky and easy to massage to my face. It smell herb-ish and leaves minty feeling after using.
