The skin care duo that's providing a holistic approach to your routine
Because good skin comes from within
The product
These days your skin care routine extends well beyond a few steps at night. Damn, it even goes well past external measures these days. We're talking ingestible beauty, specifically Omega-3s.
So, what even is Omega-3?
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fatty acids found in foods we eat (yep, keep up the avo toast) that work to help regulate the skin's oil production, which can help to improve your skin's barrier function all while balancing hydration and sealing in moisture. Because of these benefits, omega-3s can be beneficial for people with dry, irritation-prone skin.
But the thing with most Omega-3 tablets is that they're made from fish-based ingredients. Great for your skin, not so great for the taste factor, which is where the SIMKA Alpha Omega-3s differ. The sustainable, plant-based tablets are formulated with antioxidant-rich algae oil which is rich in omega-3 boosting derivatives.
Like we said, it's not a one stop skin care approach these days, so while boosting your internal levels is important, you can't forget to have a skin-loving self-care moment either, and the SIMKA Cooling and Hydrating Bio-Cellulose Facial Mask (4 pack) are all about that. The cooling gel-like masks are designed to give you a moments reprieve once a week, working to deliver deeply hydrating, sensitive skin-friendly rejuvenating benefits.
So, let's see what our members had to say about this skin-boosting duo...
The panel
BEAUTYcrew sent the SIMKA Cooling and Hydrating Bio-Cellulose Facial Mask (4 pack) and SIMKA Alpha Omega-3 to a panel of 20-45 year olds looking to boost their all-round skin health, with a focus on hydrating skin.
The lowdown
The comprehensive wellness from within approach: These days, we're all well aware that the skin's health doesn't just come from slathering on your serums (although it's a major part of it). Supporting your skin in other ways such as supplementation (with your doctor's advice and blessing of course) is also an option. On that note, our members enjoyed the comprehensive aspect of using both supplements and skin care to see results.
The radiant, rejuvenating results: Like we said, there's no one approach to skin care. So, trialling this duo side by side left our members seeing major radiant results. They loved how plump and fresh their skin was left feeling by the end of the trial.
The hydrating effects: There's absolutely no better feeling than taking the time for a self-care moment, sitting back and enjoying the relaxing (and oh so hydrating) effects of a sheet mask. Well let us tell you, our members loved the weekly ritual these masks provided. With their unique gel-like, bio-cellulose formula, the masks stay put (a rarity in the sheet mask world) and deliver major results.
