The skin care duo that's providing a holistic approach to your routine

Because good skin comes from within

Content Producer / September 03 2024

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.

After trying the SIMKA Cooling and Hydrating Bio-Cellulose Facial Mask, I’m really impressed with the results. The mask left my skin feeling incredibly refreshed and deeply hydrated. It had a cooling effect that was both soothing and relaxing, perfect for winding down after a long day. My skin looked more radiant and felt noticeably softer after use. The mask itself was easy to apply and stayed in place without any fuss. I appreciated how it didn’t slip or dry out too quickly, allowing me to enjoy the full benefits. Overall, the SIMKA Cooling and Hydrating Mask has become a go-to for a quick and effective skin boost, and it’s definitely a treat I’ll keep in my skin care routine.

I loved using these masks; they come individually packaged and are easy to apply. It’s an in home, luxurious experience and upon application, the mask provides an immediate cooling sensation, perfect for soothing tired or irritated skin. The hydrating properties are notable, as the mask leaves the skin feeling plump, refreshed, reducing dryness and providing a radiant glow. I also love that they’re vegan and eco friendly and can be used for all skin types. Overall, the SIMKA Cooling and Hydrating Bio-Cellulose Facial Mask is a great option for anyone looking to give their skin a hydration boost and a cooling treat.

I have been taking the Simka alpha omega-3 capsules for several weeks now and can say that I have already started seeing a difference. These omega-3 are made with a soft gel making it really easy to swallow. What is special and innovative about this omega-3 supplement is that it is fish free and is made with micro algae oil. This makes it a great option for those that are vegan, vegetarian, someone who cannot consume seafood or wants an omega-3 that is more sustainable, better for the planet and cruelty free. Since it's fish-free you don't get that fishy smell or aftertaste when taking these capsules. What I've noticed so far since taking these omega-3 capsules is that my skin looks and feels better as it's not as dry as before. I've also found that I don't get as many breakouts and my skin is looking clearer.

I am an avid supplement-taker and love to add extra boost that is good for skin, nails and hair because I am sure that my current diet doesn't cover all my skin needs. The most important thing about these capsules is that they don't smell like fish! There is nothing worse than trying to swallow something that tastes disgusting. These capsules are also made of soft gels and hence are easy to swallow. I took these capsules for 20 days and can happily say that I noticed improvement. I would recommend it to everyone who likes to look after their skin and give it additional support from the inside.
