As the summer glow fades, we see the full effect of the season’s damage to our skin – dehydration, fine lines, and age spots.

The accumulation of summer sun and a relaxed skin care regime, combined with drier air as the heat comes on in the Fall can result in a dull, dehydrated complexion in need of a reinvigorated program.

An assertive plan designed as a seasonal “tonic” will restore a fresh glow to the skin.

The first priority is to exfoliate and step up cleansing to remove superficial cells. This will also maximize cellular turnover and allow deep treatments to penetrate for optimal performance.

For fast and efficient results, use Cellex-C Skin Smoothing Cream every other night. This leave-on exfoliant lifts away superficial skin build-up, revealing a fresh, dewy, youthful looking complexion. Remember not to overuse the product as it is highly efficient.

An alternate approach is to use Speed Peel Facial Gel. This super gentle mask does not harden. Enzymes loosen stubborn build-up, and then the skin is polished to a dewy glow when the gel is massaged on the skin.

Perfect cleansing is a must. Remove makeup nightly with Gentle Cleansing Milk and deep cleanse each morning with Gentle Foaming Cleanser. Both contain 1% Alpha Hydroxy Acid to float away makeup, grime, and surface cells revealing a smooth, brighter complexion.

The skin is now ready to accept deep restorative treatments. Advanced C Serum should be applied every morning followed by Hydra 5 B Complex to restore deep hydration and radiance. It is essential to follow with Sun Care SPF 30+, even in the winter.

Additional help is available with Fade Away Gel for sun and age spots to gradually replace hyper pigmented areas with fresh, clearer skin. Just apply Fade Away Gel directly to spots after applying Advanced C Serum.

Congratulations! You are on your way to a brighter and more youthful looking complexion.

How Efficient is Skin Care Serum from Cellex-C?

Today, women are conscious about aging signs and look for quality anti-aging skin care solutions. Skin is a sensitive organ of the body and is related to cosmetics as well; hence, it is important that only quality products are trusted for your skin. There are various anti-aging products on the market these days. Some of the commonly used products; include skin care serum.

Skin Care Serum from Cellex-C

Before purchasing a skin care serum for your skin, it is essential to understand the goodness of one and whether you actually need it. The first consideration in this regard is your age and the kind of aging signs that you are facing with your skin. The skin signaling serum from Cellex-C is being hailed as a revolutionary product in skin care and in reviving to more youthful skin. It not only helps in reducing the aging signs on the skin, but also signals the skin to behave with more elasticity just the way it did when it was young. Age-Less 15 is the skin care serum from the leading cosmetic brand, Cellex C.

Ingredients of Age-Less 15 Skin Signaling Serum

Cellex-C has been pivotal in bringing the goodness of Vitamin C into cosmetics and anti-aging products. The useful properties of Vitamin C in fighting free radicals in the body helps in the reduction of  oxidation processes in the body; thus, reducing the cause of aging signs of the skin such as wrinkles, fine lines, pigmentation, scaring, age spots etc. The main vital ingredient present in Age-Less 15 serum is the Photo-Glycan complex that signals the skin to behave as it used to years back. The active ingredients in the skin signaling serum include Glycosaminoglycans, Sulphated Proteoglycans, Fraction of Hyaluronan, Ellagitannins, Anthocyanosides, and Beta (1,3) Glucan Polysaccharides.

Efficiency and Benefits of Age-Less 15

It is an efficient skin care serum that proves beneficial in reducing aging signs to a great extent. The best part about using it is that it signals the skin to behave and react in a way it used to some years back. With regular use, it helps the skin look considerably younger. However, it is advised that a good moisturizer needs to be mandatorily used with this product. It also firms up sagging skin giving it more volume. It reduces aging signs such as neck line, wrinkles around the jaw and chin. One can see good amount of improvement in 5 weeks of its regular application.

Cara-Mia Skin Care is western Canadian wholesale distributor of Cellex-C, the popular anti-aging cosmetic brand. Some of its main products on offer include Cellex-C complex, Age-Less 15 Skin Signaling Serum, Enhancers, Correctives, Betaplex etc.

Over time, the cumulative effects of photo-aging and other environmental stressors contribute to significantly diminished collagen production, which results in loose and wrinkled skin.

A two-fold approach is necessary when designing an effective anti-aging skin care regime to counter this trend. First, effective screening from the sun is a must. The damaging effect of ultraviolet light is well documented, and has been adopted by most skin conscious people. Cellex-C’s broad spectrum sun care formulations provide excellent daily protection against photo-aging and provide a comprehensive “age proofing” strategy when used in combination with other Cellex-C products.

The second essential in an assertive anti-aging program is to include skin care products that are rich in antioxidants.

An antioxidant is “a molecule that inhibits the oxidation of other molecules*.” Oxidation can produce free radicals which start a chain reaction of cell damage or even cell death.

“Lipid peroxidation refers to the oxidative degradation of lipids. It is the process in which free radicals “steal” electrons from the lipids in cell membranes, resulting in cell damage.*”

Ascorbic acid is a “reducing agent”, that is, an antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals, thus preventing their potential for cellular damage.

The Cellex-C patented complex contains very concentrated levels of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), together with a precise formulation of other natural constituents vital to the maintenance of younger looking skin.

The Advanced-C Professional line from Cellex-C contains antioxidant protection including ingredients such as ergothioneine, resveratrol, and grapeseed extract that work in concert with L-Ascorbic Acid for superior protection against free radical damage.

A disciplined daily application (in both summer and winter) of Sun Care 30+ over Advanced-C Serum and Skin Hydration complex provides the foundation for your anti-aging program. Additional antioxidant and moisture protection is available in Seline-E cream with ingredients such as Vitamin E, aloe and bioflavonoids.

To get the most from your skin care products, carefully follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for correct usage.

Simple changes can make the all the difference in your results and how satisfied you are with your products. Many people forget that the order of application is important. For example water based products (such as serums) are applied before creams. If both products are water-based (for example Advanced-C Serum and Skin Hydration Complex), the more active product (the serum) is applied first. These guidelines ensure maximum penetration of the product that offers the anti-aging effect.

In some cases, the time of day that you apply your products can be relevant. Cellex-C recommends that the ideal time to apply any of the topical Vitamin C creams or serums is during the day, as this is the time we are exposed to UVA and UVB rays. The time that we need the most protection from photo-aging is when we want to bathe the cells in anti-oxidant protection.

Pay attention to ALL the products that you are using. Many products that offer excellent results individually cannot be used back to back. For example all Cellex-C topical Vitamin C serums or creams cannot be applied immediately after a peel, or a mask containing Alpha Hydroxy Acids. Rather, use the Vitamin C products in the morning, and any type of peel or exfoliation treatment should be done later in the day or even in the evening. An example would be Cellex-C’s New Complexion Cream. This lightly moisturizing product is a leave-on exfoliation treatment in the form of a night cream. The next morning, the skin appears fresh and youthful, and after cleansing and toning, it is ready to accept the vitamin C serum or cream.

Topical vitamin C can tingle when you apply it, so remember that this is a normal sensation, however men may find that it is best not to apply it immediately after shaving. A drop of Hydra 5-B complex, followed by a soothing film of Seline-E cream completes the treatment ensuring the best penetration of your anti-aging products.

Another tip is to remember that more is not better. Apply only the amount of product that your skin can absorb, and keep any type of cream away from the eye area at night. Creams can migrate into the eye at night leading to puffiness and even irritation.

Frequency of use is another important consideration. For example, Cellex-C’s Fade Away Gel for Sun and Age Spots must be consistently applied twice daily for best results. Conversely, other Vitamin C products should be used once per day.

I am using Cellex-C’s AGE.LESS 15 Skin Signaling Serum and I love it. Would it also be helpful to use the Cellex-C core vitamin C formulations?

Absolutely. Vitamin C is an essential material for the formation of collagen. When skin cells receive signals to produce collagen, it is Vitamin C in the form of L-ascorbic acid that has to be present for the collagen manufacturing to begin. No matter how efficient the level of skin signaling, without vitamin C, smooth, firm skin cannot be maintained.

For the best results, follow these guidelines:

1.    Begin with careful cleansing and exfoliation, ideally with Speed Peel Facial Gel.

2.    Ensure an adequate supply of Vitamin C with Cellex-C’s High Potency Serum or Advanced-C serum. If you prefer a cream base, use Advanced-C Skin Tightening Cream.

3.    Always use a moisturizer. Seline E with vitamin E and green tea bioflavonoids is very popular, however you may choose Sea Silk for an oil-free option, or GLA Extra Moist for dry skin.

4.    Sunscreen is a must in any anti-aging regime. Cellex-C’s superstar Sun Care 30+ is an excellent choice to protect the improvements you have made using AGE.LESS 15 Skin Signaling Serum and Cellex-C topical vitamin C treatments.

Cara Mia Contest Winner!

A few months ago, we ran a contest to celebrate the launch of www.caramia-skincare.com. The lucky winner was Deigh-Anna Edmondson, Marketing Manager of Spa Boutique. Her prize was Cellex-C’s exclusive AGE.LESS 15 Skin Signaling Serum! After using the product for a few weeks, she sent us the following product review:

“I love that this product has absolutely no fragrance, which can be irritating for my typically reactive skin. I also like how quickly it absorbed without leaving any trace on the skin, so I was able to apply my moisturizer over top right away. I have been using it for a few weeks and have already been able to see a difference in the overall health of my skin. It seems to be healing faster and the tone is brighter and more luminous.”

Congratulations to Deigh-Anna and many thanks for the detailed feedback!

Lately I notice that my skin is not only showing more wrinkles, but it looks dull with a poor color

You can quickly perk-up the complexion with a few simple steps.

Introduce an anti-aging mask into your regime with Advanced-C Skin Toning Mask by Cellex-C. Exfoliating agents lift off accumulated dead skin cells to brighten, smooth, soften and literally polish the complexion to a healthy looking pink glow.

Cellex-C’s Advanced-C Skin Tightening Cream contains a high concentration of the patented topical Vitamin C complex plus powerful antioxidants. It targets wrinkles, age spots and sagging skin and restores a smoother texture and glow to the face.

Another quick-fix is to add a product like Skin Hydration Complex. It enhances the effectiveness of the Cellex-C Complex products and produces a smoother, more radiant looking skin.
