The Benefits

Lifting

Lifting is all about visibly firming and tightening skin that shows signs of sagging. As we age, our skin produces less collagen and elastin, the proteins that keep it firm and elastic. Sun exposure and pollution make this worse, leading to a sagging appearance. Lifting products work by creating a tightening film on your skin for an immediate lift, while also rejuvenating it over time. These actives stimulate collagen production and improve skin tone and elasticity, helping to restore facial contours and enhance overall firmness.

Pore Tightening & Minimising

Pore minimising involves reducing the appearance of enlarged pores. Enlarged pores often result from excess oil production and accumulated impurities, which stretch them over time. ageing also plays a role, as reduced skin elasticity makes pores more visible. Pore-minimising formulas tackle these issues by regulating oil production and boosting collagen and elastin to enhance skin elasticity. This helps pores return to their natural, less noticeable shape, giving your skin a smoother, more refined look.

Firming

Skin firming focuses on boosting your skin's elasticity and tightness to reduce sagging and wrinkles, leaving your skin looking firmer. This is done by stimulating fibroblasts to produce more elastin, the protein that helps your skin stretch and bounce back. To keep your skin firm longer, antioxidants protect these elastin fibres from free radical damage, which can cause early breakdown. This combined action helps maintain a youthful, resilient complexion.

Plumping

Skin plumping involves using active ingredients to boost the production of key structural components like collagen, the dermal-epidermal junction, and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), giving your skin more volume and density. Collagen provides structural support and firmness, while the dermal-epidermal junction, a thin connective layer, ensures smooth, wrinkle-free skin by facilitating cell communication. GAGs, like hyaluronic acid, keep your skin hydrated and plump from within. By stimulating these components, active ingredients help restore your skin's plumpness and radiance.

Skin Renewing

Skin renewing, or skin cell turnover, is the process where old, dead skin cells are shed and replaced by new ones. In our early 20s, this cycle takes about 25-28 days. However, as we age and face external factors like sun exposure and pollution, this process slows down, leading to uneven skin tone and texture, congestion, dullness, flakiness, and wrinkles. Actives like retinoids (Vitamin A) and exfoliating acids can speed up this process, while proper hydration supports the skin's natural shedding, triggering the renewal cycle. By promoting skin cell turnover, your skin becomes smoother, brighter, clearer, and more youthful-looking.

Spotlight

Cassava Extract

Cassava extract, derived from the root of Manihot esculenta, is a skincare ingredient offering benefits for hydration, anti-aging, skin brightening, and environmental protection. Its hydrating and soothing properties help maintain skin moisture, while its antioxidant content, including vitamin C, combats free radicals that contribute to premature aging. Vitamin C also supports collagen synthesis, enhancing skin firmness and elasticity. Additionally, cassava extract inhibits inflammatory mediators, alleviating skin irritation, and acts as a protective barrier against environmental stressors. The presence of copper further aids in cellular energy production and repair processes, promoting overall skin health.

    Another excellent serum

    This works! I use it mostly on my lower face to help with sagging, it’s early days yet but can see a definite improvement.

    Another great serum!

    I have been using Serum VG Tensil for about 6 weeks now. While the effects are not immediate, you can see improvements in skin sagging after few weeks of use.
    This serum requires diligence and daily use. It absorbs easily and doesn't leave a residue. Noticeable results after 4 weeks when using with other BR serums. My skin is feels firmer and is growing!

    Lovely

    I love the serum. Have been using it during the evenings and my skin felt not saggy. Have been applying it on my forehead too although was not recommended. Combined with my face cream works like magic.
