Evolve Age Defying Lifiting Serum is a lush serum with the yummy fragrance of real organics. One of its star ingredients is Reunion Island Marine Active. That’s an advanced biotechnical ingredient sourced from the Waters around Reunion island. The benefit? It’s supposed to tackle wrinkles and improve them with increased hyrdation and radiance. Evolve’s creamy serum is touted as being able to plump and make your skin appear younger.
Evolve’s serum sinks well into your skin and although it’s hard to say if it for sure took years off my face. My skin definitely looked better and had more bounce to my eyes.I looked forward to using it every evening, and I liked the refection in the mirror.

Sekkisei Facial Cream Wash is a comforting cloud-like way to rinse away the day. And that’s not even mentioning all the benefits of the Melothria Extract that helps brighten your skin tone or the Job’s Tears Extract, an antioxidant that moisturizes or the Ritha Tree Extract that makes it such a gentle cleanser. This face wash has old-school cold cream vibes that I loved. Its rich creamy consistency and foam leaves skin feeling supple not tight. I found it very gentle yet effective.

Back then clear ingredient lists were a radical statement of transparency. But now her latest line is powered by tech skincare innovation and bounty from her organic Sonoma County vineyard. Regenerative Biotech Skincare is how the brand describes the science behind their products. Even the grapes are next level. Beauty Crush uses rare powerhouse antioxidant Sagrantino grapes grown on Behnke’s idyllic vineyard. The products also feature another rare grape plant with Falanghina grape leaf exosomes.
I tried the Brightening Smoothing Skincare Set: Triple Action ExoCellular Antioxidant Serum and Glow Moisturizer. This set is designed to brighten and visibly firm your skin as well as hydrate and smooth. The vegan collagen biometric peptide in the serum is what helps reenforce bounce and suppleness. The vitamin C fosters glow and the BioTech Plant Exosomes made with the rare Falanghina grapes support skin rejuvenation. And our good friend hyaluronic acid helps to moisturize. The serum is glossy, luxe and defiinelty smells like came from organic vineyard in California’s Sonoma Valley. Both the serum and the Glow Moisturizer have an almost gel like consistency that seeps quickly and luxuriously into your skin, The mositurizer also imparts a sublte glow that gives that I just got back from vacation vibe. These are gorgeous skincare products.
