Korres is a modern Greek Apothecary founded in Athens. The
company is cruelty free and uses high quality pure ingredients, pharmaceutical
grade water and medicinal herbs that are environmentally friendly and inspired
by ancient traditions. The products are also free of mineral oil, silicone and
parabens.
This is my second bottle of the Wild Rose Foaming Cream
Cleanser ($32.00) which is perfect for winter. The gentle formula is 94.5%
natural and can be used to remove makeup, impurities, pollutants, dirt and oil
without dehydrating the skin. Infused with Super Vitamin C (1,000% better than
pure ascorbic acid) and an abundance of plant extracts, the cleanser also
minimizes the appearance of discoloration and wrinkles while refreshing and
balancing pH. It works well with my
Clarisonic of Foreo device and purifies pores while adding
nutrients.
Tip: For travel keep
the stopper clip that clamps down on the dispenser to prevent liquid from
pumping out.
After cleansing I apply the Wild Rose Smoothie Brightening
Priming Moisturizer ($56.00) to minimize pores, smooth and hydrate. The key to
achieving an even complexion is to use this product daily before applying
makeup or at night under the Wild Rose Serum. Overtime I’ve noticed that
blemishes have faded and my skin looks more luminous. The weightless cream is
enriched with fruit extracts and luscious oils that absorb quickly with no
greasiness so skin feels incredibly silky.
Before bed I like to layer my skincare but I never forget to
apply the Wild Rose Serum or Oil. The textures are relatively similar but the
Spotless Serum ($99.00) contains 15% vitamin C to brighten and reduce the
appearance of dark spots, hyperpigmentation, dullness and acne scars. It also
has Provitamin B5, Bisabolol (an essential oil derived from German chamomile)
and ginger for even more antioxidants and hydration. The gentle formula treats problems areas without lightening or altering your natural complexion and the supple finish makes skin look dewy and plump.
If your skin is feeling extra parched this winter you’re not
alone. I’ve started using moisture masks several times a week and sleeping with
my cool mist humidifier on full blast. Dry air, cold weather and indoor
heating can make your complexion appear dull, dehydrated, tired and rough. A
great way to keep your face cool and protected is by using the Korres H2Rose
Hydrating Face Mist ($44.00). The formula contains water, hyaluronic
acid, light oils and aloe to soothe, refresh, energize and set makeup. I use it throughout the work day, before bed and during long flights.
You’re probably tired of reading my reviews on the Korres Wild Rose Vitamin C Active Brightening Oil ($75.00) but this miracle worker is a
bestseller for a reason! Infused with real rose petals, antioxidants, rich
fatty acids and potent herbs, the healing elixir diminishes discoloration
while softening, moisturizing and restoring radiance. I’ve been using it as a
jet lag recovery concentrate for years as it is particularly effective for alleviating
irritation, bumps, redness and common skin ailments.
I also wanted to mention a couple products from the new
Olive Collection because they are very hydrating and smell wonderful! The
Nourishing Hair Mask ($30.00) is 92.0% natural and totally rejuvenates dry,
brittle hair with extra virgin olive oil, antioxidants and a long list of butters
fruit oil and plant extracts. Use it 1-2 times per week to resurrect weak
strands, reduce breakage, soften, tame and smooth.
The Olive Blossom Hand Cream ($18.00) contains all the good stuff – shea
butter, sweet almond oil, aloe, olive and sunflower oil to deeply moisturize
and heal rough hands, damaged nails and ragged cuticles. This stuff is always
in my purse!
