LADY@LXG: Restore youthful luminosity to your skin with SOTHYS

Our skin's has an energy capital which is the source of its radiance throughout the years. And when the skin is deprived of this energy (due to lifestyle, ageing, diet, stress etc), it loses its glow and appears more marked by the signs of ageing.

Because more than 90% of visible light is not directly reflected by the cutaneous surface; instead, it penetrates the skin before being revealed, the cutaneous radiance depends closely on the skin's quality. Sothys advanced research has selected an illuminating complex and unifying pigments to play with the light and reveal every woman's beauty, immediately, day after day, making this range one of my beauty must-haves! 

Sothys Energizing Booster Serum (S$279, 30ml) 

This intensive serum helps boost the skin’s energy to restore a radiant complexion. Formulated with Anti-ageing Illuminating Complex to limit and correct imperfection, this lightweight serum absorbs instantly and does not leave any heavy or greasy after feel.  

Just like the Energising Day and Night cream from this range, which left my skin looking amazing, even after a sleepless night, this serum has the same magical properties, but even more concentrated, if you could believe it! 

Use this serum every morning and evening on the entire face and neck, avoiding eye contour, followed by your moisturiser. I usually use this every night, especially before an important event or meeting, because I wake up the next day with glowing and clearer skin! 

Energising Radiance Ampoules (S$49, 1 x 2ml) 

This little ampoule is like an expresso shot for your face. An energy booster for instant radiance and brightness, it acts as an instant transparent mask to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and upon application. Forget using a primer if you are using this little wonder, cos it leaves skin looking flawless, sort of like its been photoshopped, so save it before a big night out! 

After using your moisturiser, simply apply the entire content of an ampoule onto your face and neck and gently smooth it over the skin and viola...photoshopped perfection! (psssst... you can even blend it with your foundation, for an all-day-lasting makeup!)

The SOTHYS Diamond Programme is available at appointed SOTHYS Salons island wide! 

My new love...Sothy's Energizing Night Cream!

Let me introduce you to Sothys Miracle in a jar....

I have always been a fan of Sothys skin care, but I have to say that their range of Energizing Day and Night creams have greatly surpassed any of their previous products.

For those of you who follow my occasional rants and raves, you would be quite familiar with the fact that my skin is rather congested. In fact, if blackheads were as valuable as diamonds, I would be a zillionaire by now!

Unfortunately, even though I am prone to breakouts, especially during "that time" of the month and when I go on a chocolate binge, I can't use zit creams as they simply make my pimple burrow down further and become worse. So when I got my little hands of Sothy's Energizing Night cream, I was super excited as the product is said to make you look like you have slept 8-hours, something I don't get much of unfortunately. 

The Energizing Day Cream is said to be able to reveal the skin’s youthfulness by restoring luminosity and radiance. Siberian Ginseng protects and optimizes cellular energy for improved skin health and quality, and prevents and diminishes signs of aging. Formulated with rice peptides and lupine extracts, this daily moisturizer improves microcirculation and boosts the energy production and skin oxygenation. It is also available in “Light” for normal to combination skin and “Comfort” for dry to very dry skin.

The Energizing Night Cream is my definite must-have. I use this as a night cream daily and if I get a spot, I simply apply a little extra night cream on the spot, and viola its gone by morning!

This wonder cream renews and rejuvenates the skin overnight by visibly reducing lines and wrinkles while stimulating collagen production. Formulated with glycolic acid and Sophora flower extract, it increases cell renewal and encourages the elimination of toxins during the night to reduce the “puffy” appearance of the face in the morning. Trust me, this is not just hype, it REALLY works! In fact, I am on my second jar of the product now.

If you want to look more rested before a big presentation or date, this cream is a definite must!

Although this range was actually launched a while back, I wanted to try it before I wrote about it to see if it lived up to its claims, and I can honestly say that it did.
