Love Lula Skin Products

Posted by Loz in Beauty, Lifestyle, gifts. Tagged: , , , , , , , .

LoveLula do some fantastic skin care products used by celebrities the world over! Make sure you check out their full range but the EcoTrendSpotter team loves this Kimia Exquisite Rejuvenating Facial System:
Recommended for all skin types looking for a rejuvenating skin care treatment to keep skin soft, smooth and glowing
Kimia’s oil-based range is packed with botanicals to hydrate and heal the skin Vogue
Kimia fans include Victoria Beckham and Donna Air
Kimia Exquisite All Natural Face Oil is based on a unique selection of the purest and most potent natural oils, sourced from around the world and carefully blended in a process developed through advanced research.
While some of these ingredients combine to stimulate rejuvenation of the skin cells, others have cleansing, refining and nourishing properties. The Kimia oil-based serum is the dynamic element of the system that stimulates this active and continuous cell renewal.
These effects are activated and enhanced by Kimia Hydra-activator, a hydra-based formula that creates a synergistic effect when applied with the oil, increasing the absorption of the oil into the skin and accelerating the removal of dead cells, and leaving your skin velvety smooth with a non-greasy feel and look.
The Kimia Hydra-activator contains refined extracts of Lady’s Mantle. This special plant produces its own drops of moisture – so-called celestial water – and was renowned in ancient times for its magical powers. For centuries it was used in alchemy, a process believed to turn any compound into pure gold – the Kimia Glow.
To use
Step 1: Gently apply Kimia exquisite all natural face oil to your face and massage.
Step 2: Immediately apply Kimia hydra-activator to the oil on your face and massage.
To guarantee the magic Kimia glow, use Kimia exquisite rejuvenating face system daily both morning and night, after cleansing and toning your skin.
Use within 12 months of opening.
