Need super hydrating mask, etc.

skittles2 · ‎03-22-2010

Hello, I'm in great need of hydrating eye, face and body skincare. I have a few medical conditions and they've made my once nice skin turn dry.

I'm looking for both immediate and long term effects.

increasing my own collagen and elastin, Telomere sparing would be great.

Non drying for sure.

looking for mask, serum, cream, for eye, face and body.

Also if there's one or two single ingredients that can be purchased to add directly to my skin or to a product that would be the main thing to give me hydration I'd love suggestions.

I think hylauronic acid is one, but I don't know anyone who uses it. If anyone has??

or if there is something better??

all suggestions really, really be much appreciative. ${#emotions_dlg.biggrin}$

I use PTR products, but you could make your own mask.

This is really good to refresh your skin.

FIRM™ PEELING GEL

Here is the DIY mask recipe:

Ingredients:

1 large ripe avocado

1 tbsp. honey

1 soft mango

1 tbsp. banana powder

1 tbsp. plain almond or Greek yogurt

Directions:

Combine all the ingredients in a food processor or food mixer, and stir until smooth.

Transfer the mask into a resealable container.

Using your hands or a makeup brush, brush on the mask. Let the mask sit on you face for 15-20 minute.

Rinse off with warm water.

Repeat.

Store leftovers in the fridge for up to two weeks.

Since I've gotten dry (and I really didn't realize how badly my skin needed the extra help), I've been very happy with some Skinn products. Primarily the eye, lip and face Collagenesis Stem Rejen serums -- they're not serums like we usually think of them, but more like lightweight lotions or creams. Then, the 24 Hour Cream which is pretty amazing. At first I thought it was so heavy and dense, not for me. Then I began using it at night, and now I use it night and day. They all have really good ingredients to help with dryness.

He's also got a couple of moisturizing masques -- a Watermelon one and a new one I saw him selling tonight. I haven't tried those, but I know the Watermelon one has a lot of fans.

I like the look of the DIY recipe lolakimono posted, too. I think I'll give that a try!

Try Aveda intensive hydrating mask. It's oil free has aloe, kelp, lavender, rose water it's really a great product and I think it's about $20 for a decent sized tube. I use it during the winter and I find it gives a great moisture boost.
