Luxury Skin Care. Things we want to splurge on, but hesitate to. Is it really worth it? Am I paying for the brand or the quality? I'm here to introduce you to Erno Laszlo. One of the leading brands in Celebrity Skin Care since 1927.
As Erno Laszlo says himself; "Beautiful skin requires commitment not a miracle." He was also the first to create a skin care regimen in 1935. Loved by some of your favorite icons and celebrities. A brand that was so lucrative that you needed to be a member to be a part of. Now it's our chance to partake in this brand and follow the ideas of Erno Laszlo. Now on to this Luxurious Vitamin C Skin Peel..
I received this product complimentary for testing purchases, but as always ALL opinions are of my own. I was lucky enough to get sent Erno Laszlo's Lighten & Brighten White Marble Dual Phase Vitamin C Peel and two small samples of their Lighten and Illuminate Skin's Brilliance White Marble Translucence Cream. Wow. That was a mouth full. Retailing at $100, this skin peel is said to diminish your dark spots and even out your skin tone while illuminating your skin and moisturizing it. With Step 1 being the peel to exfoliate and Step 2 being the activator to help bring back moisture in your skin while illuminating it. It also has antioxidants and collagen boosters that refine and renew your skin. Combined with Vitamin C, Lactic Acid, and Carrot seed oil to bring out the best in your skin leaving it feeling smooth, moisturized, and illuminated while diminishing your dark spots and discoloring. The Vitamin C reduces your dark spots and dullness while lightening the skin and helping to jump start collagen products.. The Carrot Seed oil heals and balances your skin that may feel dry or chapped while also fighting age spots and sun damage. While the Lactic acid gently exfoliates your skin to absorb, lighten your skin making it feel more hydrating and impacting your skin with healing nutrients.
Step 1 of the Dual Phase Vitamin C peel is their exfoliate. Now when I tell you this bad boy smells like fresh peeled oranges... I can literally smell it all day. With an oil based consistency, use the exfoliate to scrub away dead skin cells for 3 minutes. You might feel a little irritation, but you just have to be more gentle when rubbing it in. I know, 3 minutes seems like a long time.. But trust me when I say if you follow the instructions to a T, you will get the BEST results. Now when you are rubbing this gently into the skin, you will notice that after a minute and a half, the mixture begins to turn white on your face as if you're using a cleanser. The slight oil feel makes the exfoliate feel even more better in my opinion, with small grains to scrub your skin.
Step 2 is the activator. You mix this with the exfoliate already on your face by adding a droplet or two onto your hands and massaging it into the skin all over the peel. After 1 minute, rinse your face with warm water. This will activate the brightening and moisturizing activities and will boost your skin's natural radiance. This product feels thick but not overly thick and sticky. When massaging into the skin, it feels like it's wiping all your worries away. It peels away your skin to reveal your natural radiance instantly. Giving you skin that feels brand new, super smooth and soft, while illuminating and evening the tone of your skin.
When I first tried this product, I was shocked at how great my skin looked and felt. Instantly afterward, my face looked like it was glowing. My face was so bright and clear, you would have thought I put on the world's most fabulous and natural highlight. When I felt my skin, it felt as smooth as a baby's bottom. The feeling was instant but went away after a while but the illumination of my skin looked great. Now mind you, I work overnight shifts 5 days a week, so it's hard to cater to my skin properly and work with the right products given my schedule. Most times, I don't have the energy or the time, okay.. maybe laziness, to cater to my skin properly. It would look and feel rough at the end of the work week and trying this product for the first time, changed that. My skin was able to absorb my night time skin care routine so well that I felt like my skin was soaking up all the ingredients in my products. The next day when I was out, I was getting so many compliments on my natural skin and was told I looked like I was glowing!
Now I bet you're probably wondering now, is this luxury skin peel worth the price? My honest answer is yes. If you're someone who is committed to your skin care routine that you follow religiously, then this is the product for you. Not only does it have a sleek, minimal design, but the overall quality of the product is amazing. It's something you don't have to use everyday and if you're light handed with your products, it can go a long way. The shelf life is 1 year, so you can even get this product as a staple item in your skin care routine for when your face feels like it truly needs it. If you end up obsessed with this product as much as I am, you'd use it every week. Not to mention the sample of the Translucence Cream was an amazing combination to put on top. Now I'm picky with my moisturizers as I have combination skin and it tends to get dry. The cream is thick but not overly thick or greasy and adds even more moisture to your skin. I would recommend this product for anyone who doesn't mind paying a steep price for a a skin care product that does wonders. I mean, even Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn used Erno Laszlo's products back in the day when you had to be a member just to get the products. Now they're available for us with Erno Laszlo's original slogan behind the products.
