Mario Badescu Vitamin C Serum - For All Skin Types 29ml

Product Information

Mario Badescu is a mid-priced brand; the products are slightly more than your average drugstore product, yet they are far more affordable than luxury brands like Drunk Elephant and SK-II . Layering a Vitamin C Serum and Vitamin C Cream can be a great way to take full advantage of Vitamin C. Parabens have been linked to reproductive, immunological, neurological and skin irritation problems. Parabens penetrate the skin and hang around in our bodies. As preservatives, parabens keep the bacteria out of the products, but keep in mind there are clean alternatives. Mario Badescu Drying Lotion is formulated to work overnight on whiteheads and other type of acne. According to the manufacturer, it dries up acne overnight without drying the skin, which is a common side effect of many acne washes and treatments.

One thing you’ll notice about Mario Badescu Drying Lotion is that there’s a separation of pink sediment at the bottom and clear liquid on top, which may tempt you to shake the bottle. But no matter how tempted you are, don’t shake the bottle! If there’s one product from this brand that you’ve heard of, it’s the Mario Badescu Drying Lotion. This acne spot treatment has developed a cult following of loyal customers, beauty editors, celebrities, and skin care professionals worldwide. Why? The bright pink formula can make a blemish basically disappear overnight.You’ll also find supporting ingredients in this formula, such as hydrating humectants, skin-softening emollients, and soothing botanical extracts like cucumber and ginseng. Whitening mask products, such as a Mario Badescu Whitening Mask, may help individuals who have discolored areas on their face from acne scarring or hyperpigmentation. The Mario Badescu Whitening Mask, which is one of many skin care and beauty products from this New York-based line, brightens the skin and evens out skin tone, according to the manufacturer. The Mario Badescu Whitening Mask may benefit those who have tried other over-the-counter whitening gels or serums but have had little success with them. The mask contains a number of different ingredients that lighten the skin, which may prove more effective than products with only one main brightening ingredient. The Mario Badescu Whitening Mask is available on a global scale, which makes it accessible for almost anyone who wants to balance their skin tone or reduce the appearance of acne scars.

Use our Vitamin C Serum as a nightly counterpart to our Vitamin C Cream – our Vitamin C Serum is formulated as a treatment serum and is best used overnight when skin cells go through a regeneration and repair process. After removing makeup, cleansing and toning the skin apply 3-4 drops onto your face every other night. Layer our Vitamin C Serum with a nourishing night cream. As for the fragrance used in Mario Badescu products, we already mentioned that fragrance has the potential to cause skin sensitivity. In addition, the use of synthetic fragrance ingredients can be a problem because the brand can use a proprietary blend of chemicals to create the fragrance, and they do not have to disclose which chemicals they use on the label. They are allowed to list this blend as “Fragrance (Parfum)” on the ingredient list. Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that protects the skin from free radicals, the unstable molecules that contribute to the formation of premature wrinkles and fine lines on the skin.

Vitamin C also helps to promote a brighter complexion with fewer dark spots and a more even skin tone by inhibiting melanin synthesis.

Pros The Mario Badescu Peptide Renewal Serum was designed to serve as a gentle anti-aging serum alternative to more traditional and aggressive anti-aging actives. The formula behind this product contains a range of botanical ingredients and safe synthetics including yarrow, sage, green tea, palmaria palmata, willow bark, sorghum bicolor stalk juice and of course, peptides. Starting off with the botanical ingredients, each of these extracts offers immense nutritional benefits which help to maintain healthy looking, well functioning skin. These botanicials are also extremely antioxidant rich, which helps to prevent environmental damage, which more and more research is linking to signs of premature aging like wrinkles, fine lines and hyperpigmentation. Peptides on the other hand are amino acid precursors which encourage the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. Since the natural production of both of these compounds slows down as we age, peptides help to supplement that loss, creating a more youthful looking complexion in the long run. According to Healthline, using calamine lotion as spot treatment can help because calamine lotion has drying properties, it can help dry out pimples caused by excess oil faster. But overdrying acne can cause irritation and make acne worse, so calamine lotion should be used sparingly.The anti-aging benefits. Anti-aging isn’t my main concern (I’m only 24), but preventive measures are key in any skincare regimen. Think for the long run. However, if you’re the instant gratification type, know this: good skin is a gradual process that takes consistency and diligence. It’s worth the addition into your current routine because the results are tangible. Anti-aging properties? Great. But it’s what the Vitamin C Serum does for my skin within a week that has me head over heels. (At this point only clichés can convey how much I love this product.) The highest concentration ingredient in the Drying Lotion is isopropyl alcohol, also known as rubbing alcohol. This ingredient will definitely dry out a blemish, but it can also dry out your skin. Since this is a spot treatment, we think the alcohol in the formula is okay if you need to get rid of a zit ASAP. But it’s not something you want to be using on a regular basis. Additional blemish-fighting ingredients in Mario Badescu Drying Lotion include calamine, sulfur, zinc oxide, and salicylic acid.

The cleanser also includes surfactants to remove excess oil and surface impurities, as well as soothing extracts like marsh mallow extract, chamomile extract, yarrow extract, and St. John’s Wort extract. This night cream also includes the hydrating ingredients sodium hyaluronate, hydrolyzed elastin, and soluble collagen. These ingredients bind moisture to the skin, thereby hydrating the skin while also helping it to look more plump and youthful.The Mario Badescu Botanical Exfoliating Scrub was designed to exfoliate and buff away dead skin cells while also infusing the skin with powerful and beneficial active ingredients. The formula behind this product was designed to invigorate the skin without causing any inflammation or irritation. As a physical exfoliant, this product utilizes finely ground Ecuadorian Ivory Palm seeds in a gel base to deliver even, thorough exfoliation. In addition to the exfoliating power of this product, aloe vera, coconut, ginger, ginko and green tea extracts work together to prevent damage from environmental aggressors, relieve dehydrated skin, calm inflammation and create a youthful looking glow to the skin. With all this said, it’s worth noting that the exfoliating particles should be applied to the skin very gently, as there is a possibility for microtears. Ground particles such as seeds, shells, salt or sugar, have jagged edges, which if rubbed too vigorously on the skin, can cause more harm than good. Because of this, we recommend using light pressure and circular motions to apply this product to the skin. Think of it this way: The pink dot you make on your face works like a teeny overnight mask that gives targeted attention to your blemish. You want the product to be clay-like when it’s applied so that it goes on opaque and pink, completely covering the bump. When you shake, that sediment becomes diluted. Bottom Line: An alcohol-free, mild resurfacing toner that uses glycolic acid to promote mild exfoliation, but keep in mind the formula includes parabens and fragrance. Bottom Line: Mario Badescu Drying Lotion is an acne spot treatment that combines isopropyl alcohol with calamine, sulfur, zinc oxide, and salicylic acid to help dry out blemishes overnight.
