5 Ways to Give Your Face an Instant Glow

Woman massaging face

Did you know that blood circulation is crucial for our skin?

We all understand the importance of proper blood circulation: it transports oxygen and nutrients throughout the body, which benefits the brain, heart, lungs, muscles, and digestion, among other things.

In addition, blood transports oxygen, vital nutrients and transports waste items, effectively detoxifying your skin from the inside. Good blood circulation also helps with cell regrowth and skin health, with cell regrowth necessary for collagen production.

Poor blood circulation can cause a variety of issues. You may look paler with a washed-out appearance and may have to contend with skin dryness, irritation, itching, an uneven and blotchy skin tone, and an increased risk of infections or slow-healing wounds.

So, how do you attain that wonderfully glowy skin while keeping your blood circulation in check?

There are a few basic things you can do to keep your blood moving and nutrients flowing to your skin cells, and that includes having a good skincare routine.

Here at Vine Vera, we harness the power of resveratrol, among many other skin-loving ingredients, to give your skin everything that it needs to glow! Read on for a deeper look at our products.

Give Your Face a Massage with Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Merlot Facial Exfoliant

Vine Vera Merlot Collection Exfoliant

When it comes to maintaining healthy-looking skin, exfoliation is essential, and it should be a part of your weekly skincare routine. The Resveratrol Merlot Facial Exfoliant removes the look of roughness, dullness, and dryness from your skin, leaving it appearing polished, smooth, and bright.

The exfoliating grains help to slough off dead skin as you massage it over your face, and the rubbing action promotes circulation.

Exfoliating also helps prevent the look of dry, flaky skin as well as cellulite. Even better, removing the dead, old layers of your skin increases the absorption of any lotions you use afterward.

Once you’re done, keep your skin feeling fortified with a layer of your favorite Vine Vera moisturizer. We have numerous skin cream formulas for you to choose from! 

Show Your Skin Some Love With This Facial Stimulator

Vine Vera Facial Stimulator

Revolutionize your everyday skincare regimen with Vine Vera’s new and totally unique facial stimulator.

Complete with iontophoresis technology and vibration massage functions, this intelligent, tiny applicator can ease the feeling of tension from your skin.

Use this tool to boost the properties of any essence you’re using, whether it’s a day moisturizer or an eye cream.

Facial massages can help your skin look better. They can aid in relaxing the muscles that generate the appearance of stress lines, leaving your skin looking youthfully smooth and firm.

Manual Facial Massages

Woman massaging face for circulation boost

Looking to improve the feel of your skin texture? Well, as mentioned, you should consider facial massages. 

We guess you could call it a form of “facial exercise.”

You could even massage your face using your hands or a gua sha tool!

Cleanliness is key, so you should wash your hands with warm water and antibacterial soap before you start. You could also try steaming your face first.

How to Perform a Facial Massage

Using minimal pressure, give your lymph node area a massage. Then, run your fingers under your ears, up along your jawline, and down to your throat.

Move over to the side of your jaw, past your lips, and over your cheekbones in a wide circular motion. It’s always a good idea to press skin up and out. Never pull your skin down to the point where it sags.

After that, massage your forehead with both hands. Begin by massaging your temples and work your way up to the center of your forehead.

Lightly massage around your eyes with soft strokes to relieve the look of puffiness. Just do this for a minute every day to obtain the best results, and Vine Vera promises you’ll see a difference in the long run.

Harness the Strength of LED Light Therapy for an Added Boost

LED skincare devices for circulation boost

Did you know that LED light treatment was first developed to speed up the healing of surgical wounds and scars? After that, specialists discovered that LED light therapy also helped renew and rejuvenate the appearance of the skin.

There are no known contraindications to LED light treatment, according to specialists. It’s suitable for all skin types and conditions, and it’s even safe to use around the eyes.

At Vine Vera, we have a few fantastic devices up our sleeves that are highly raved by our loyal customers:

TORCHĒ V2+ AMBER LIGHT

JELESSI’s Torche V2+ Amber Light uses Amber LEDs and heat technology to rejuvenate the look of your skin for that instant glow. With regular usage, this non-invasive gadget can minimize the appearance of oil, brown spots, irritation, and pore size, resulting in a smoother, more refreshed appearance.

TORCHĒ V2+

They may look the same, but this product emits red LED light, which is the most effective light on the spectrum to boost the look of skin circulation.

This groundbreaking device is guaranteed to bring back the glow to your skin.

This effective treatment uses red LED infrared technology to target the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots on the face and neck. As a result, you will notice a revitalized youthfulness in both the look and feel of your skin with regular usage.

PHOTONIX-2 JADE EYE WAND

The skin around your eyes is noticeably thinner and more sensitive than the rest of your face, which is why the products you use around your eyes should be specifically developed for this area.

The Photonix-2 Eye Wand’s Blue Relief Mode brightens the look of the complexion, and reduces the appearance of puffiness. On the other hand, red light waves are used in the Magnetic Heat Lifting Mode to give the skin a smoother and firmer finish.

Load Up on Resveratrol

Vine Vera skincare products for summer

As if we haven’t stressed enough, resveratrol is magic in a bottle for your skin!

So, what is resveratrol, the skin-loving ingredient found in most Vine Vera products?

Resveratrol is a substance that can be found in berries, grapes, and wine. But, it’s not as simple as downing a bottle of chianti with your meals, or splashing it on your face (no matter how delicious that sounds!).

It’s a popular skincare ingredient for those with mature skin because of how it reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while giving the skin a beautiful glow.

If you’re searching for the perfect ingredient that’ll give you a boost when it comes to the appearance of your skin, you’ll find what you need at Vine Vera, because our products are enriched with the goodness of resveratrol.

The Resveratrol Malbec DNA Melting Pre-Mask

One product that we’d recommend is the Resveratrol Malbec DNA Melting Pre-Mask.

This skincare component is formulated with three main powerhouse ingredients:

  • Resveratrol
  • Sweet Almond Oil
  • Vitamin C

The Vine Vera Malbec DNA Melting Pre-Mask is an easy-to-use pre-mask that firms and tightens the look and feel of your skin. It’ll prepare it for the application of your fave Vine Vera facial mask.

This innovative pre-mask melts into a smooth oil before it changes into a clarifying foam that rids the skin of impurities.

The Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Moisture Day Cream

Additionally, Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Moisture Day Cream is an excellent moisturizer to include in your skincare routine. This cream is high in resveratrol and vitamin E, which will both leave your skin looking glowy.

This formula contains shea butter too, which will moisturize your skin. This day cream is excellent for dry skin that needs a little extra moisture. It’s also great for mature skin that requires a pick-me-up in terms of looking tighter and brighter.

Turn to Retinyl Palmitate

Vine Vera Mask

Retinol is another powerhouse ingredient that’s commonly heard in the world of skincare, and with good reason too.

Vitamin A derivatives are beneficial if you want to prevent the look of wrinkles and age spots on your skin. 

Besides giving the skin a glow, retinoids are popular because they also improve how the skin’s texture feels.

Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Shiraz Instentic Mask is loaded with ingredients like seaweed extract, Vitamin E, and retinyl palmitate, a gentler form of retinol. This is a potent blend that helps give your skin a glowy finish.

Besides these three ingredients, this mask also has aloe vera extract, ginkgo extract, safflower oil, and a host of botanical extracts that will help your skin in so many ways!

Summary

All in all, ​​these steps are a surefire way to give your skin a gorgeous glow. However, don’t be discouraged if they will don’t work immediately.

Good skin is all about being consistent: work hard and long enough, and you’ll be able to achieve those #SkinGoals in no time.

Woman exfoliating face

Lining up your newly purchased skincare products on your bathroom counter, you give yourself a mental pat on the back. You’ve finally found the perfect products for your skin and put together a skincare regimen that you just know will bring a bright appearance back to your skin. 

It’s later in the day when it happens. You pass by a mirror while shopping after work and catch a glimpse of your reflection out of the corner eye. Your heart drops. 

You wonder, why is your skin still looking so dull? What happened to your healthy-looking glow? What skincare product do you need to rid your skin of dirt and oils?

The truth is, your skin can suffer if you leave some important steps out of your skincare routine. It sounds to us as if you need to exfoliate. The product your lackluster skin is seeking is one with ingredients proven to exfoliate, or gently flake away, that dirt, oil, and buildup that’s leaving you feeling self-conscious about your skin.

Vine Vera has developed the Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Cellular Peel to do just that, and more. The amazing ingredients in this peel work in harmony to gently remove that aging build-up. Once it’s removed, your skin looks and feels fresh, clean, and radiant.

Intrigued? Read on for more information about exfoliation, how to find a product that gets the job done, the results you can expect from a great exfoliating product, and why you’ll want to find a great one, such as our Resveratrol Cabernet High-Potency Cellular Peel, today!

First, let’s get into the nitty-gritty on exfoliation in general. It’s great to have a foundation to build upon and besides, we like to share what we know here at Vine Vera.

What it Means to Exfoliate Your Skin

Woman exfoliating face

If you stay up to date on skincare trends, you’ve likely heard of skin exfoliation. But you may not know what the term means, or how to go about it. 

To exfoliate your skin means to slough off the outer layer of your skin. This removes any dirt, buildup, excess oils, and dead skin cells. When you rid your skin of this outer layer and the dirt and buildup that comes with it, you reveal brighter-looking skin that is better able to hold hydration.

The best way to exfoliate your skin is by using a skincare product specially formulated to get rid of this outer layer of buildup while also boosting your skin’s hydration.

Because no one wants to think that they are walking around showcasing dirty, dead skin cells, let’s delve into why exfoliation has become a game-changer in the world of essential beauty.

The Benefits of a High-Quality Exfoliation Product

You may already own a few beauty tools or products that claim to exfoliate your skin until it’s so clean that it shines. But we’re guessing you wouldn’t be reading this right now if those products worked well on your skin.

A high-quality exfoliating product developed by a good brand that does its research is a must-have in your skincare regimen.

But, can’t lower budget creams and peels do the job?

Well, yes and no. Many skin care products that are designed to get the exfoliation job done to do so abrasively. These products don’t contain ingredients that work gently enough to preserve your skin’s vital natural oils and can leave your skin looking damaged and dry.

For this reason, it’s important for your skin that you choose exfoliating products that help maintain the look of healthy skin. When in doubt, always pick products that contain proven high-quality ingredients. Exfoliating products such as our Vine Vera Cellular Peel are the perfect luxurious addition to your beauty routine.

Finding the best exfoliation product sounds pretty important, doesn’t it? Let’s get right into finding an ideal exfoliating product match for your skin type. We’ll also share how you’ll know for sure that you’ve found a product that’s a keeper!

Which Exfoliating Product is Best for Your Skin?

Vine Vera Cellular Peel

For this, you’ll want to do your homework on skincare brands. Some questions to ask yourself when considering where to buy your new exfoliating best friend might include:

  • Are the ingredients used in their products proven to work? 
  • Do they carefully craft their product formulations to achieve targeted results?
  • Do their products work on your skin type?

But beyond the answers to these questions, the proof that an exfoliating product is right for you is in how your skin looks and feels after use of the product. You’ll know after the first use or two if a product lives up to its hype.

You’ll find that high-end products use ingredients that often deliver immediate results.

Finding the best exfoliating product for your skin can be game-changing as far as how you look and feel in your skin.

At Vine Vera, we know that your skin is unique to you. When it comes to developing exfoliating products that tackle your skin concerns gently yet effectively, we know that using researched ingredients is a critical step in developing our best-selling products.

An Exfoliant That Can Be Used on All Skin Types

We’d love to help match you with an exfoliating product that works best on your skin. Vine Vera has developed our bestselling Resveratrol Cabernet High-Potency Cellular Peel for use on ALL skin types, especially yours.

Keep in mind, there are some brands that might advertise exfoliating creams that will treat your skin gently. However, these can often leave you with dirt and oil still clogging up your dull complexion. Worse, they will harshly strip your skin of its vital oils. This leaves it both damaged and exposed to the elements.

You’ll find that top-notch exfoliating skincare products are often infused with ingredients proven to improve the appearance of your skin. Exfoliating peels should contain ingredients proven to hydrate your skin as well as rid it of dirt and impurities. Ingredients such as the Glycerin and Propylene Glycol in our Vine Vera Cellular Peel provided targeted results, leaving your skin feeling more hydrated than ever.

When Should I Use an Exfoliating Product?

The key to boldly flaunting freshly exfoliated skin that looks bright and hydrated is to know how often to exfoliate.

Most skin care experts recommend that you exfoliate your skin two to three times a week. Exfoliating immediately after cleansing your skin is best. This way your complexion will benefit the most from the ingredients in your exfoliating product.

How to Use an Exfoliating Product

Applying the Vine Vera Cellular Peel with brush

One of the most amazing benefits of using exfoliating products is that you are able to kiss the dulling buildup of dirt and oils goodbye with surprising ease. And when using an exfoliating peel like our Vine Vera Cellular Peel, you’ll find yourself flaunting skin that looks visibly fresh, deeply cleansed, and bright within just a matter of moments.

There is an art to exfoliating your skin, however. And for your skin to reap the maximum benefits of an exfoliating product, it’s essential that you follow the provided instructions for applying the product.

Are you feeling ready to get your exfoliation game started?

How to Apply an Exfoliation Peel

Below are the three fast and easy steps to follow to score skin that looks bright and refreshed.

Because of the powerful potency of the ingredients in high-quality exfoliating peels, such as our Resveratrol Cabernet High-Potency Cellular Peel, most high-quality exfoliating products only need to be applied once or twice a week at the most.

  • Apply a quarter-sized amount of the peel into the palm of your hand
  • Gently rub into cleansed skin using a circular motion (this massage in itself will give you an instant glow), making sure to avoid the eye area.
  • Rinse with cool water

And that’s all there is to it! Couldn’t be easier, right?

What’s So Special About the Vine Vera Eye Serum?

Vine Vera eye serum

Not all of the visible signs of aging are made equal. Some wrinkles form faster, some fine lines run deeper, and in certain areas of the face, gravity weighs a little heavier on the skin to induce a subtle sag.

Signs of aging tend to manifest faster in the most delicate areas of the face. One such area is around the eyes.

A 2015 study found that areas with fewer sebaceous glands are more prone to visible wrinkles. The eye area is not only thinner and more sensitive, but it also has fewer oil-producing glands. This explains why the appearance of under-eye darkness, fine lines, and crow’s feet have the tendency to show through quickly. 

This is where the best-selling Vine Vera eye serum comes in.

The Vine Vera Eye Serum

Vine Vera has a number of eye care products on our roster, but the one we’re zeroing in on today is our best-selling Resveratrol Age-Defying Eye Serum. With skin-loving ingredients enrobed in a gentle yet effective solution, this Vine Vera eye serum reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eye area.

A great fit for every skin type, the product is free of parabens that may potentially trigger irritation. Even better, like all Vine Vera products, the Resveratrol Age-Defying Eye Serum is cruelty-free and therefore, not tested on animals.

What Causes Aging?

Before identifying the solution to aging, it’s important to tackle what causes signs of aging to manifest in the first place. The truth is that aging is a result of multiple triggers that our skin is exposed to overtime:

One of these triggers is UV damage. According to a 2015 volume of the Antioxidants journal, UV exposure can account for up to 80% of visible signs of aging. These may include dry skin, wrinkling, scalping, and freckling, among others, which may also make the skin more susceptible to cancer risks.

Another cause is pollution. Engaging in daily activities that expose the skin to pollution in traffic-saturated areas has shown links to accelerated aging.

These environmental stressors are just a couple of the factors that contribute to the inevitable equation that is aging.

While getting older will remain unavoidable until mankind invents the time machine, there are ways to keep the telltale signs at bay.

What’s the Deal with Resveratrol?

Resveratrol, an antioxidant derived from red grapes, is Vine Vera’s answer to skin that looks old. As our signature ingredient, it’s present across all of Vine Vera’s lines and products.

When included in a skincare routine, this ingredient has the ability to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while giving the skin a plump and youthful look.

The Vitamin C Boost

As wonderful as Resveratrol is, there is no single skin care ingredient that can work miracles on its own. The Resveratrol Age-Defying Eye Serum is no exception.

To boost the effects of Resveratrol, the Vine Vera eye serum harnesses the protective power of other powerful antioxidant-rich ingredients, including:

  • Calendula Officinalis (Marigold) Flower Extract
  • Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract
  • Ascorbic Acid

The last of these ingredients, Ascorbic Acid, is more popularly known as Vitamin C. Another cult favorite in the world of skincare, Vitamin C serves up a wide range of benefits. Not only does it reduce the appearance of aging skin, but it also brightens the look of the skin, making it great for fading the visibility of dark spots.

Moisture, Moisture, Moisture

They say that those with oily skin types age slower compared to those with dry skin. This is not a factual claim, however, the belief is not completely unfounded.

Those with higher sebum production (and therefore, more oil) may be more prone to breakouts. But, this also makes those with this skin type less prone to visible wrinkles. This, in turn, makes their skin look less affected by the wear and tear of time — and it’s all thanks to good old moisture. 

Moisture isn’t just a fancy buzzword that should be thrown around. Rather, moisture has the ability to keep the skin feeling balanced, healthy — and yes, youthful.

Before we go any further, it’s important to set the record straight: moisture and hydration are two completely different things. Despite many using the terms interchangeably, they pertain to different facets of the skin altogether. 

Here’s the difference:

  • Hydration, like the word suggests, pertains to the skin’s water content. Therefore, dehydration is the lack of water in the skin. This is not a skin type, but a skin concern that can be solved over time with lifestyle changes and the proper skincare routine.
  • Moisture, on the other hand, refers to the amount of oil housed within your skin. Unlike hydration, oiliness is a skin type that someone is born with.

That said, moisturizing ingredients do not solve dehydration. Instead, they are able to target the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging that may be a result of chronic dryness.

Sodium Hyaluronate

The Vine Vera eye serum is rich in potent moisturizing ingredients. One of these ingredients is Sodium Hyaluronate, which is very similar to the wildly popular Hyaluronic Acid (HA).

Like Hyaluronic Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate replenishes the skin’s moisture and is a great fit for all skin types and ages.

However, the real difference between Sodium Hyaluronate and its cousin lies in two factors: stability and penetration.

As the sodium form of HA, Sodium Hyaluronate is more stable and easier to formulate. It also has a lower molecular weight than HA, allowing it to penetrate deeper into the inner layers of the skin. This translates into more effective absorbency.

Aloe Vera Extract

Another key moisturizing ingredient in the Vine Vera eye serum is Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, otherwise known as Aloe Vera Extract. 

For centuries, Aloe Vera has been a staple in multiple cultures across the world. To this day, many still keep the plant in their household, finding comfort in having its leaves handy anytime they need a rich balm.

In the skincare realm, Aloe Vera Extract exists in various forms: gel, liquid, oils, and more. It has found its way into skin care formulations because of its ability to soothe the feeling of irritated skin, calm visible inflammation, and deliver moisture to the skin’s surface.

Other moisturizers found in the Vine Vera eye serum include Pueraria Lobata Root Extract, Sodium PCA, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, and Glycerin. 

Peptides to Restore the Feel of Your Skin

Peptides are not quite as popular as the previous ingredients we’ve discussed here, but we argue that they should be. Sure, their names may be intimidating — but when it comes down to results, you can count on them to deliver.

In a nutshell, peptides are short chains of amino acids, which are basically the building blocks that come together to form proteins like elastin and collagen. While we naturally have these proteins in our skin, the amount we hold on to dwindles over time. This makes it crucial to replenish our peptides via our skincare, especially for delicate areas like the under-eyes.

The Vine Vera eye serum contains two kinds of peptides to slow down the visible signs of aging: Palmitoyl Oligopeptide and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7.

A 2012 study found that Palmitoyl Oligopeptide significantly reduced the depth of the appearance of wrinkles and improved the feel of skin texture. 

No Nasties

We’ve talked plenty about what the Vine Vera eye serum has — from Resveratrol and Vitamin C to moisturizers and peptides. Now let’s talk about what it doesn’t have.

Take a look through the Resveratrol Age-Defying Eye Serum and you’ll notice that unlike many skin care products out there, there is a glaring lack of alcohol. With the growing interest in skin health, more and more consumers are becoming aware of what’s in their products — and most forms of alcohol have become synonymous with red flags for the well-informed skincare junkie.

Here, we explain why:

Not all alcohols are bad. Cetyl Alcohol, for instance, is a fatty alcohol that functions as a moisturizer. However, when people want their products to be alcohol-free, they mostly refer to alcohols like Ethanol. 

Ethanol is a solvent, which makes it great for dissolving oily skincare actives like Salicylic Acid. It is also used to cleanse the skin and improve the spreadability of products.

However, these benefits come at a price. Ethanol has been linked with aggravated dehydration and irritation, which makes it an ingredient that those with more sensitive skin should avoid. The same can be said about Alcohol Denat or denatured alcohol, which is Ethanol combined with a small concentration of another ingredient.

What About Essential Oils and Fragrances? 

Essential oils have long been lauded for their use in aromatherapy, and some continue to swear by their abilities to this day. All things considered, several kinds of essential oils pose benefits for the skin because of their standout properties. However, these oils may pose a larger risk that may not be worth the gamble.

Even in skincare, essential oils can be very potent and fragrant. This may cause inflammation and sensitivity. And in certain instances, may even be toxic. A few reports have surfaced in the past years — one from WebMD and another from The New York Times, for instance — depicting the havoc that essential oils may wreak on the skin.

Jumping off the same idea, as much as possible, fragrance in skincare should also be avoided. 

Unlike essential oils, fragrance does not bring any additional benefits to the table; they simply exist to make products smell more pleasing. However, at the end of the day, fragrance is a potentially sensitizing allergen — and when it comes to skincare, it is always a good idea to err on the side of caution (and science, of course.)

Interested in stepping up your eye care routine? You can rest assured that the Resveratrol Age-Defying Eye Serum is completely safe and free of alcohol, essential oils, and fragrance.

With the benefits of antioxidants, peptides, and an array of moisturizers — and without all the dangers of sensitizing ingredients — the Resveratrol Age-Defying Eye Serum can effectively hit undo on the visible signs of aging.

Follow up the Vine Vera eye serum with the Resveratrol Cabernet High-Potency Contour Eye Firming for optimal results.

Do you have dull skin that lacks shine? The Resveratrol Merlot Facial Exfoliant was designed to clear the surface of your skin from the buildup of dirt and oil that cause it to look dull and lose its shiny glow. And without that buildup on the skin, your skin is able and ready to absorb your other nourishing skincare products.

This exfoliant from the Vine Vera Merlot Collection is not abrasive. It won’t strip your skin completely, like many others on the market. It allows your skin to retain its natural vital oils.  

And once this exfoliant does its job, you are left with brighter, softer, more radiant-looking skin.  

The Resveratrol Merlot Refining Peeling

Vine Vera Merlot Collection Facial Peeling

Lost that youthful glow? 

A fan favorite in the Vine Vera Merlot Collection, Resveratrol Merlot Refining Peeling is a gentle peel made with Resveratrol Ferment Extract. This refining peel works by ridding the surface of your skin from the dulling buildup of dirt and oils without stripping your skin of the vital oils that give it that glow. As a result, your skin maintains its moisture and looks clean and more hydrated.

What was once dull and lifeless looks brighter and more radiant with this peel.

To make the most of Resveratrol Merlot Refining Peeling, Vine Vera recommends combining this peel with regular use of the Resveratrol Facial Serum.

Key Ingredients in the Vine Vera Merlot Collection

Resveratrol Ferment Extract

Receiving glowing praise and reviews, this is Vine Vera’s secret anti-aging ingredient. Resveratrol Ferment Extract is a powerful topical antioxidant sourced from the skin of red grapes.  

A polyphenol, often referred to as the “longevity gene,” Resveratrol Ferment Extract works in the products in the Vine Vera Merlot Collection to reduce the appearance of aging, leaving skin looking firmer, fuller, and tighter.

Hyaluronic Acid

A favorite of dermatologists and skincare experts, Hyaluronic Acid is naturally present in your body. It’s a sugar in your skin that keeps your skin looking hydrated, soft, and youthfully plump. But as you age, the amount of Hyaluronic Acid that is present in your skin decreases, right along with the amount of collagen and elastin in your skin.

But you can get it back.

Vine Vera has formulated several products with Hyaluronic Acid. The ingredient features heavily in the Vine Vera Merlot Collection. It’s incredible for bringing moisture to your skin. 

It’s the wonder worker that plumps the appearance of fine lines and gives your complexion that dewy glow.

Butyrospermum Parkii Oil (Shea Butter)

The Holy Grail for dry, dehydrated skin that does not retain moisture, shea butter has been used for hundreds of years to moisturize and soften the feel of the skin. 

Full of vitamins, Shea Butter has Vitamins A and E, as well as fatty acids that moisturize the skin. 

Vine Vera Merlot Collection Cream

In Conclusion

While there might be nothing better than a glass of Merlot, the Vine Vera Merlot Collection comes close.  

The products in this line have been amazingly popular at Vine Vera, mainly because of its quality ingredients and how it works so effectively. If you’ve been looking for a new way to hydrate and smooth the look and feel of your skin, you’ve found it. Treat yourself to the Vine Vera Merlot Collection now!

The 5 Skincare Products You Need This Summer

Vine Vera skincare products for summer

Our wardrobes evolve as the seasons change, and so should our beauty routines. Just like the sweaters and coats rotate to the back of our closets when the summer starts creeping in, our skincare routines deserve to shed a few layers in the summertime.

Skincare Products for Summer

Shelf of Vine Vera skincare products for summer

When it comes to summer-appropriate skincare, the rules are fairly simple. Here’s Vine Vera’s take on things:

Double up on the protection, but keep textures lightweight.

With temperatures rising and the summer sunshine demanding to be felt, the last thing you want is for your skincare to pile on heavy and feel grimy throughout the day. After all, warmer weather should equate to fewer steps, lighter formulations.

But how exactly can we care for our skin while streamlining our skincare products for summer?

It’s easier than it sounds. Like every regimen, a summer-ready skincare routine should start with a solid foundation—one rooted in carefully selected ingredients.

It’s even more important while being on a sunny vacation as you will probably spend even more time outdoors.

This is where Vine Vera’s star ingredient, resveratrol, comes in. 

Known as the red grape antioxidant, resveratrol is derived from the skin and seed of red grapes. Resveratrol is a perfectly valid reason to increase your red wine intake. We’ll raise a glass to that, but that’s not where this resveratrol’s abilities end.

See, to enjoy resveratrol’s benefits, you’d need to drink copious amounts of wine — around 1,000 bottles in a day, to be exact. However, there is another way to reap the benefits of this supercharged plant compound:

The answer is working it into your skincare routine, especially when it comes to skincare products for summer.

Transition into the warmer seasons with a resveratrol-rich skincare routine. Start with these five skincare products for summer:

Resveratrol Vitamin C Cleanser

Vine Vera Vitamin C Cleanser

The beach, the melting ice cream cones, the scorching heat — for most of us, the summer rings synonymous with sweat-slick skin and fun in the sun.

At the end of a warm day, there’s nothing quite like washing your face to give your skincare products for summer a clean canvas to work their magic on.

Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Vitamin C Cleanser is the ideal candidate for the job. A refreshing gel-type formula, this cleanser lifts dirt and grime off the face without excessively stripping the skin of its moisture.

Besides resveratrol, this cleanser has another core ingredient: vitamin C. If you grew up taking vitamin C supplements, you’ll know just how crucial this ingredient is for keeping your health in check. In the realm of skincare, you could say vitamin C plays just as big a role. Not only does it minimize the look of fine lines and wrinkles, but it also brightens the appearance of dark spots and a dull skin tone.

To use, every morning and evening, apply a small amount of cleanser on to wet skin. Massage it into the skin in circular motions, then rinse off with warm water.

Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Cellular Peel

Vine Vera Cabernet Peel

Skincare products for summer should be light, potent but effective. For days when you want to double up on cleansing, consider reaching for Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Cellular Peel. 

Despite what the name may sound like, this product won’t have your skin flaking and peeling. Instead, it will slough off dead skin cells to reveal a healthier-looking complexion — perfect for makeup-free summer days.

Unlike physical exfoliators with chunky particles that can cause micro-scars, the Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Cellular Peel gently does away with dead cells by breaking down stubborn, flaky skin.

Although this product isn’t harshly formulated, remember that with great power comes great responsibility—even in skincare. Like all exfoliators, Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Cellular Peel should be used moderately. Once or twice a week, apply a quarter-sized amount to the face then rinse off with cool water.

Resveratrol Pinot Noir Longevity Serum

Vine Vera Pinot Noir Serum

Unlike cleansers and wash-off exfoliators, serums and essences stay on your skin throughout the day and all night long. They’ll contain potent active ingredients, usually in higher concentrations, to deliver optimal results to the skin.

Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Pinot Noir Longevity Serum is full of potent extracts and vitamins to restore the skin’s radiant glow. Let’s dive into the product’s ingredient list:

  • Glycerin, to hydrate the skin
  • Retinyl palmitate, otherwise known as vitamin A palmitate
  • Lactic acid, which can work wonders to lessen the look of fine lines

Fair warning: it usually isn’t advisable for lactic acid and retinol to be combined in a routine — let alone in a single product. But there’s no need to fret: retinyl palmitate is the gentlest out of the four kinds of retinol.

By combining it with a cocktail of antioxidants and hydrators, retinyl palmitate is gentle enough not to cause dryness or irritation. But remember, it’s always a good idea to patch test products before adding them to your regimen!

To use the Resveratrol Pinot Noir Longevity Serum, apply a small amount on clean skin daily.

Cabernet Rejuvenation Facial & Eye Mask

Vine Vera masks

Picture this: kicking back on a summer evening, sticking your nose in a book, or devouring a new series, all while treating yourself to a relaxing face mask. Rather than a regular fixture in your round-up of skincare products for summer, think of the Cabernet Rejuvenation Facial & Eye Mask as a weekly pick-me-up for your skin.

These masks, packed individually and soaked in a powerful mix of skincare actives, pack a punch of hydration — all without leaving a sticky, heavy feeling on the skin.

One of these superstar ingredients is hyaluronic acid. Our skin naturally contains hyaluronic acid, as it helps our cells hold on to water and maintains the look of plumpness. But over time, the amount of hyaluronic acid in our body diminishes, much like collagen and elastin.

When you need reinforcements, take a moment to breathe some life into your skin. Vine Vera’s Cabernet Rejuvenation Facial & Eye Mask makes a perfect addition to your line-up of skincare products for summer, especially if your skin is feeling dehydrated or fatigued.

Cap off your summer weekends right with Vine Vera Resveratrol Cabernet Cabernet Rejuvenating Facial and Eye Mask. To use the facial mask, place the soft sheet on a clean face. Leave it on for 15 minutes before rinsing with cool water. When your eyes feel heavy from late nights or too much screen time, carefully apply the eye mask and rinse off after 10 minutes. 

Resveratrol Cabernet Replenishing Moisture Cream SPF 30

Vine Vera SPF cream

Some may think that you can skip moisturizing on warmer days, but the heat and humidity make this step even more important. Here’s why:

Needless to say, your selection of skincare products for summer should include a moisturizer — albeit one with a lightweight, non-greasy formulation.

With moisturizing ingredients and sunscreen actives, you can count on Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Cabernet Replenishing Moisture Cream SPF 30 only to keep your skin’s moisture in check while shielding it from UV damage, too.

This product contains a total of five sunscreen ingredients, effectively filtering both UVA and UVB rays. Octisalate sunscreen also lends water resistance to the moisture cream, helping the product last through sweaty summer days. 

To use, generously apply the Vine Vera Resveratrol Cabernet Replenishing Moisture Cream SPF 30 onto clean skin. To allow the product to seep into the skin effectively, apply 15 minutes before sun exposure. 

Summary

With exquisite ingredients, lightweight formulations, and multitasking resveratrol at the center of your routine, there’s no need to worry about products feeling too heavy throughout the day. Seamlessly transition into the warmer months with scientifically formulated, thoughtfully curated skincare products for summer.

9 Must-Try Skincare Ingredients for Dry Skin

Woman applying face cream

If there is anything that gives a woman sleepless nights, it is bad skin. Not only does dry skin look rough and patchy, but it can also literally keep you up at night by feeling itchy and irritating.

Fortunately, a good moisturizer is all that you need to put things right. Take for example the Cabernet Collection Moisture Day Cream; it has been formulated by Vine Vera to answer all of your dry skin concerns.

A high-end product like the Cabernet Collection Moisture Day Cream by Vine Vera is the golden goose you should never underestimate. This product includes just about every ingredient that you could need for skin that feels supple and replenished. 

Let’s take a look at the key ingredients your moisturizer should have. You’ll find them all in the Cabernet Collection Moisture Day Cream, as well as in several other Vine Vera products

Vine Vera Cabernet Collection Moisture Day Cream

Vitamin E

Any skin product that has Vitamin E compound in it will expressly give you glowing, healthy-looking skin. Most high-end products, just like the Cabernet Collection Moisture Day Cream by Vine Vera, are packed with this antioxidant.

Check out the Vine Vera Malbec DNA Collection for even more vitamin E goodness.

Hyaluronic Acid

This is yet another wonder-working humectant. You will love the instant effect it will have on your dehydrated skin. Dehydration of the skin happens when skin cells don’t have enough water and you don’t use a good moisturizer.

Hyaluronic acid counters this almost immediately. It draws in moisture from the environment and holds onto it, giving your skin an instant plumper look.

Make the most of hyaluronic acid by also adding it to your eye care routine with the Vine Vera Cabernet 60 Second Eye Solution.

Aloe Vera

Aloe vera

This superhero has been around for centuries doing what it does best. Answering all your skin problems. Aloe vera will soothe and pamper the feel of your damaged skin back to perfection.

Many products on the market, including the Cabernet Collection Moisture Day Cream, are packed with aloe vera gel specifically to moisturize dry skin. This is why aloe vera is also one of the star ingredients in Vine Vera’s Chianti Collection

Resveratrol

If your skin is dry and mature, a product that contains resveratrol is the ultimate answer for you. This ingredient is great for reducing the appearance of skin aging.

Let Vine Vera explain why this ingredient is a buzz of activity right now, and why it’s one of the star ingredients that you’ll find in every Vine Vera product

Not only does it minimize the look of fine lines and wrinkles, but it also leaves the skin looking plump, tight, and beautifully healthy.

Lactic Acid

Lactic acid is dry skin’s best friend, but, then again, you shouldn’t use it alone for hydration. This humectant is an exfoliant in nature. This makes it an excellent candidate for removing dead skin while still moisturizing your skin.

According to the Mayo Clinic, lactic acid and other emollients are extremely beneficial in a moisturizer. They help the outer part of the skin retain water thus keeping it hydrated. However, there is more to this multitasking ingredient. Any moisturizing cream with lactic acid will lighten and even out the appearance of your skin tone. 

Ceramides

Ceramides are the rage in the cosmetic industry right now. It is like a new goldmine is up for grabs and everybody is scrambling to get a share of it. This fatty acid makes up 50% of your outer skin, can you believe that? You probably won’t until you hear more.

Ceramides are all about keeping the skin feeling moisturized. Use them regularly and your skin will look softer and smoother.

Shea Butter

Shea butter in bowls and spoon

Shea butter is a known secret among cosmetics manufacturers. It has become a must-have ingredient over the years because of how it reduces the look of inflammation and plumps up the appearance of the skin.

Now for the other part of the story. The reason why Vine Vera has included shea butter in the Cabernet Collection Moisture Day Cream is because of its high concentration of fatty acids. Shea butter also contains powerful vitamins that leave the skin feeling smoothed and conditioned.

While the Cabernet Collection Moisture Day Cream is designed for the face, this doesn’t mean that your body needs to miss out on that shea butter goodness. Treat it to the Intensive Shea Body Butter from Vine Vera and watch it glow!

Petrolatum

Petrolatum may sound scary, but it actually does a terrific job of keeping dry and flaky skin feeling moisturized.

If you have combination skin, then avoid applying this ingredient to oily areas. It can be comedogenic, meaning that it could trigger breakouts on those parts of your face. 

Glycerin

A humectant is a property that pulls water to your skin, just like hyaluronic acid. However, glycerin has also been the holy grail in the beauty industry for its moisture-binding properties.

It’s one that those with dry skin should definitely seek out. In addition to the Cabernet Collection Moisture Day Cream, you’ll also find glycerin in the Vine Vera Body Cream. After all, your body needs some TLC too!

3 Components Your Moisturizer Should Contain

Woman with hand in face cream jar

While individual ingredients are important to understand, there are also certain ingredient groups that you should be looking out for in a moisturizer. Those with oily skin don’t need all three, but those with dry skin definitely do:

Humectants

Humectants are hydrogen bonds that connect and draw water to themselves. They are used in lotions, creams, and other beauty products to attract and preserve moisture in your skin. The main purpose of a humectant is to draw water from the air through your epidermis right to the deepest parts of your skin.

Emollients

An emollient is an ingredient in your beauty product that is responsible for soothing and softening the feel of your skin. They do this by increasing the moisture level of your skin. Emollients are designed to work in just the way the sebum of your skin does.

Severely damaged skin is cracked from the epidermis and it requires a strong property for healing. An emollientbased skincare product will fill in the appearance of those cracks and lock moisture deep in the skin. 

Occlusives

Occlusives are moisturizing agents found in your skincare products. They form a layer on the surface of your skin to prevent any harm from foreign properties. They also act as a barrier against moisture loss. A good moisturizer should contain one or more occlusives to make it beneficial to your skin.

5 Main Causes of Dry Skin

Woman looking at skin in mirror

When you are a self-conscious woman, you realize that skin problems can seem endless, especially when you have dry skin. However, if you invest in good credible products, like the Cabernet Collection Moisture Day Cream by Vine Vera, things might work better for you. But, even with that, you first need to get to the root cause of the chaos on your skin. Here are some of the major culprits for your perpetual dry skin:

Hereditary Genes

The first thing you need to rule out when finding the root cause of your skin dryness is the hereditary genes. The skin issues some of us are nursing were probably passed down by our great grandmothers. A study indicates that mutations in hereditary genes are responsible for severely dry skin problems.

If you are prone to dry skin, you are likely to have severe skin issues such as acne, eczema, dermatitis among other stubborn problems. Now back to the drawing board. Once you have established that your dry skin problems are a result of hereditary genes, look for a good moisturizer that soothes and treats your skin problems.

Harsh Products and Soaps

Washing your skin with severe soap products can result in severe skin problems such as dry skin. Avoid using regular bar soap and detergents that are designed for other purposes such as cleaning utensils and clothes. They are packed with harsh ingredients meant for removing dirt and tough stains.

Go for products specially designed to condition the feel of the skin as they cleanse. The Vine Vera Resveratrol Vitamin C Cleanser is a great example! 

Fragrance

We all love to look good and smell nice at the same time. However, most fragrances are the perpetual enemy to your skin. Especially the alcohol-based. It can dry up your skin and cause serious problems such as acne and eczema. Dry skin is allergic to so many things and you just need to be careful with what comes into contact with it.

When purchasing a skincare product, make it a habit to read the leaflets or the label. Always pick a fragrance-free product. However, if you just can’t get over fragrances, ensure that your product contains botanical oils. These oils have safe natural fragrances and are gentle on the skin.

Long, Hot Showers

If you have dry skin, cut back on those long and hot showers. For the good of your skin and to maintain that glow, opt for warm or cool water and minimize the time you stand under the shower. Hot water strips the skin of its natural oils, leaving it parched.

Aging

If you have had good skin all through your youthful years and suddenly your skin is acting up, that is a sign of age finally catching up. Fortunately, there are good products that work well to bring back youthfully smooth and supple skin even in your sunset years. Take for example the Cabernet Collection Moisture Day Cream by Vine Vera. You should also look into some of the other collections on the Vine Vera website. 

Conclusion

If you haven’t been giving your skin the pampering it deserves, it is time to begin. Dry skin has never been easy on anyone. Trying a new product is always like walking on eggshells. You introduce a new product; a carnage of issues ensue. Fortunately, you won’t experience that with the Cabernet Collection Moisture Day Cream from Vine Vera. Shop the cream here and watch the appearance of that dryness and flakiness disappear!

Can Resveratrol Really Reduce the Appearance of Skin Aging?

Vine Vera product

What if we told you that Vine Vera has found the magical ingredient that can reduce the visible signs of aging?

Resveratrol, a chemical compound found in the skins and peels of grapes and berries, and even red wine might be your best bet in keeping the appearance of pesky wrinkles and crow’s feet at bay.

What is Resveratrol?

red grapes

It’s not as simple as downing a bottle of merlot with your dinner; resveratrol is a polyphenol, a type of chemical compound with antioxidant properties.

Resveratrol-infused skincare makes an excellent addition to your nightly skin-restoring routine because our skin rejuvenates itself when we sleep.

That’s why Vine Vera, a skincare brand committed to delivering products that will transform the look of your skin, offers the very best of resveratrol-based skincare that you can add to your facial regimen.

Vine Vera resveratrol skincare boasts a potent cocktail of effective ingredients to help you achieve that glowing, youthful finish you have been vying for.

Why Resveratrol?

So, how does resveratrol affect your skin, and why do dermatologists love this ingredient?

There are numerous benefits of resveratrol for the skin:

  • Reduces the appearance of wrinkles
  • Reduces the look of redness
  • Keeps skin feeling hydrated

Reducing the Appearance of Wrinkles

Woman with eye cream

The leading cause of aging is ultraviolet (UV) damage to the skin, so using skincare that contains resveratrol can help your skin look and feel more youthful.

That’s why with the long-term usage of Vine Vera resveratrol skincare, you can be sure that you’ll achieve those #SkinGoals in no time!

Reduces the Look of Redness

Skin redness might be a sign of skin irritation, making it essential to incorporate skincare with calming ingredients into your routine.

Studies have demonstrated that resveratrol is able to reduce the look of inflammation in the skin, calming the appearance of redness.

Dubbed as the ‘longevity molecule’, it also improves the overall radiance of your skin.

Banking on this skin-loving ingredient, Vine Vera resveratrol skincare can do wonders for your complexion.

Leaves the Skin Feeling Hydrated

Resveratrol has been shown to give the skin a hydrated feeling, reducing the look of dryness. 

Keeping your skin hydrated is a crucial part of skincare.

Why? Because a lack of moisture weakens the skin’s lipid barrier. This makes it easier for irritants and microbes to penetrate.

Besides combatting dullness, having well-moisturized skin can also give you skin that looks and feels more elastic.

Vine Vera Resveratrol Skincare

A brand that stands firmly behind its cruelty-free policy, Vine Vera uses resveratrol in every product, on top of other beneficial ingredients, to give your skin that extra boost.

Our products use only the best and most luxurious ingredients to diminish the visible signs of aging.

Vine Vera resveratrol skincare products are worth the splurge. From eye care to serums, face masks, and exfoliators, you’ll find the perfect formula your skin needs!

8 Things You Need to Know About Vine Vera’s 60 Second Eye Solution

Vine Vera eye solution

Have you been eyeing up the Vine Vera Eye Solution but can’t decide whether or not it’s worth the splurge?

Here at Vine Vera, we believe that the skin is something worth investing in. We also believe that everybody should be making an educated and informed choice when it comes to the products that they apply to their skin. So, to help you with your decision, here are 8 things that you should know about the Vine Vera Cabernet 60 Second Eye Solution before you buy it.

The Vine Vera Eye Solution Produces Instant Results

Woman looking at skin in mirror

There aren’t many topical, non-invasive products out there that are able to produce instant results, which is what often first appeals to people about the Vine Vera 60 Second Eye Solution. That’s right, you’ll notice results pretty much immediately after using the product.

What exactly are these instant results?

The 60 Second Eye Solution primarily targets the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Whether you’ve got a few light creases appearing around your eyes or your crow’s feet are looking deeper by the day, this formula will leave your skin looking smooth and wrinkle-free.

Sounds good, right? It gets even better…

The way in which the Vine Vera Eye Solution gives the skin a smoother finish also means that any puffiness under your eyes becomes much less visible.

You’re probably now wondering how this product actually works. Fair question – if you’ve already tried it, then you’ll know that it seems a bit like magic!

It all comes down to its unique formula. If you take a look at the ingredient list, it isn’t long. We haven’t stuffed this product with unnecessary fillers. Instead, the ingredients that it does contain are among the most powerful in the industry…

Its Formula Contains a Peptide That Immediately Smooths the Look of the Skin

Have you heard of Acetyl Hexpeptide-8? Or how about Argireline?

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 is a synthetic peptide that relaxes the feel of the skin to smooth away the look of fine lines and wrinkles.

Regular Use of the Vine Vera Eye Solution Has Long-Term Benefits

Vine Vera products

Although the instant effects of this formula are temporary, regular use of the product means that you’ll soon be seeing your results sticking around in the long run.

How?

Again, it all comes down to the ingredients used…

The peptides, collagen, and resveratrol used in this formula work together to slowly reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Over time, they’ll give your skin a firmer and tighter look.

The Eye Solution Makes Use of Sodium Hyaluronate Instead of Hyaluronic Acid

You’ve probably heard of hyaluronic acid before. If you haven’t, don’t be scared. Just because this ingredient contains the word “acid” doesn’t mean that it’s dangerous in any way. In fact, hyaluronic acid is a substance that the human body naturally produces. It helps to keep our joints, eyes, and skin lubricated and hydrated. 

So, why’s everyone been talking about this ingredient?

Well, the body ages, the amount of hyaluronic acid it produces declines. This is one reason why the skin loses its plump and radiant look as it grows older.

Topically applying hyaluronic acid to your skin helps to change this. With each application, your skin will pretty much immediately take on a plumper, smoother, and brighter appearance, making it no surprise that it’s become so popular in skincare.

Wondering why we’re talking about hyaluronic acid when the Vine Vera Eye Solution doesn’t contain it?

That’s because the Eye Solution contains sodium hyaluronate instead. Sodium hyaluronate is the salt form of hyaluronic acid. This means that the size of its molecules are much smaller, which allows it to penetrate deeper into your skin.

Does this mean that sodium hyaluronate is better than hyaluronic acid?

In some ways, yes. They both have the same effects when it comes to plumping and hydrating the appearance of the skin. The difference lies in the fact that hyaluronic acid targets the surface layer of your skin. On the other hand, sodium hyaluronate targets the deeper layers.

The Vine Vera Eye Solution contains sodium hyaluronate for how it can both instantly plump the look of the skin and effectively moisturize it too.

The Vine Vera Eye Solution Formula Doesn’t Contain Any Harmful Ingredients

Grapes

If you take a look at the ingredient lists on the majority of the skincare products you use, chances are that these are several lines long. Sometimes, this is necessary. Here at Vine Vera, we have a few products that are packed with a long list of botanical extracts, such as the Resveratrol Pinot Noir Phyto-Silk Mask.

However, a long ingredient list filled with names that you’ve never heard of doesn’t exactly instill confidence in a product. Plus, it then takes a lot of online searching to make sure that you’re not putting anything harmful on your skin!

Fortunately, this isn’t a problem with the Vine Vera 60 Second Eye Solution. The ingredient list isn’t too long. Most of the names on there are recognizable, meaning that you immediately know that they’re safe.

The ingredients that you may not have heard of before are as follows:

  • Sodium Silicate – this salt helps to stabilize the pH level of the eye solution, which keeps all of the other ingredients within working well
  • Magnesium Aluminum Silicate – this ingredient acts as a thickener, making it vital when it comes to achieving optimal product consistency for maximum skin penetration
  • Mica – a natural mineral that leaves the skin with an instant glow
  • Titanium dioxide and iron oxide – both of these ingredients are natural minerals that brighten the look of the skin

The Innovative Applicator Means That a Little Goes a Long Way

When it comes to skincare formulas containing powerful ingredients, it’s always best to minimize the amount of time it takes for that product to travel from its jar to your skin.

Chances are, you usually apply a product onto your fingertips first. You then use your fingertips to apply that product to your skin.

While this may be the most common application method for skincare products, it does also mean that the formula’s active ingredients will start to penetrate into the skin on your fingers, before it actually reaches your face. As you can imagine, this then leads to that product not working as well as it otherwise might have done.

The Vine Vera Eye Solution has found a way around that. Its unique packaging comes with an applicator that you can use to apply the eye solution directly to the skin around your eyes, skipping the fingertip stage in the middle.

This then allows your skin to gain maximum benefits from all of the ingredients in the eye solution, meaning that you won’t need to use quite so much of it to reach your skincare goals. The fact that the product only needs to be used weekly also means that it will last for a while. Of course, you could always just save it for special occasions. However, as mentioned above, regular use means long-term benefits!

The Vine Vera Eye Solution Has Not Been Tested on Animals

Botanicals in lab

In this day and age, cosmetic products really don’t need to be tested on animals. Science has come such a long way over the years, and there are now so many methods for testing how safe a product is that do not include animal exploitation.

Although many countries haven’t banned animal testing, those that are against the act choose to boycott brands that continue on with this unnecessarily.

As you can tell, animal testing is definitely not something that Vine Vera partakes in. We are able to guarantee the safety of our products, including our Eye Solution, without testing them on animals, and this is something that our customers really do appreciate.

The Vine Vera Eye Solution Packaging is Recyclable

Sustainability is huge these days. While it may be nothing more than a buzzword to some brands, here at Vine Vera we try to keep things as eco-friendly and as sustainable as possible.

A while ago, we took the necessary steps to ensure that all of our product packaging is recyclable. This applies to the Vine Vera 60 Second Eye Solution too, so be sure to recycle your packaging once you’re done with the product!

Ready to Transform Your Skin?

There’s nothing better than a skincare product that can produce instant results, which is why the Vine Vera 60 Second Eye Solution has been such a hit. If you want to give this product a try, it can be purchased directly from the Vine Vera website. Shipping within the USA is free of charge, but we also ship to countries all over the world for a flat rate – this means that you can shop to your heart’s desire, without having to worry about a sky-high shipping fee.

A silky solution that improves the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines instantly, the Resveratrol Pinot Noir Phyto-Silk is a product that everyone needs to try. This is another product that has received considerable praise in multiple Vine Vera reviews — all thanks to its ability to instantly improve the feel of the skin’s texture in no time.

The Resveratrol Pinot Noir Phyto-Silk Mask is a leave-on mask that targets the appearance of aging and dryness. Infused with collagen and aloe vera, this will leave the skin feeling softer, smoother, and silkier.

How to Find the Perfect Night Cream for Your Skin

Woman looking at skincare cream

Need a new night cream?

The search for the perfect product can sometimes seem next-to-impossible, but, today, you’re in luck. This Vine Vera guide explains everything that you need to know when looking for a new night cream. 

Can You Use a Day Cream at Night?

woman holding skin cream

Now to quickly address this commonly-asked question: can’t a day cream be used at night too, instead of a dedicated night cream?

Yes, definitely. There’s nothing wrong with using a day cream at night, and this is far better than not using any cream at all.

However, night cream formulas are different from day creams. They are designed to support how your skin cells function at night, which is very different from how they function during the day.

Day Creams vs Night Creams

During the day, your skin has so much environmental stress to deal with. UV radiation, pollution, chemicals…the list goes on. For this reason, your skin really puts up its defences during the day. It spends most of its resources (ie. nutrients, water, energy, and more) on protecting itself. Day creams usually contain protective ingredients to help with this.

On the other hand, once you go to sleep at night, your skin can then focus on healing and repairing damage, creating new skin cells, building collagen and elastin fibers, and so much more. Again, night creams are formulated to support these functions. They contain restorative and strengthening ingredients, which your skin cells will be able to put to immediate use.

So, when it comes down to it, so long as the cream that you’re using contains the ingredients that your skin needs at night, then it’s likely to be a great choice! 

Here are a couple of moisturizers that work well for both day and night:

Resveratrol Vitamin C Moisturizer

Vitamin C is an ingredient that pretty much everybody would benefit from using, making this moisturizer a must-have in your skin care routine, no matter your skin type. Vitamin C is a powerful ingredient that’ll leave skin feeling bright and fortified, while the other botanicals in this cream work to improve the look of skin tone and texture.

Resveratrol Shiraz Instentic Facelift

This silky moisturizer is wonderfully non-greasy, making it a great for those with normal and oily skin types. Its active ingredients include DMAE, which gives the skin a tighter appearance, along with resveratrol, which brightens the look of the skin.

Know Your Skin Type

Woman looking at skin in mirror

Before even starting to look at the various night creams out there, you need to know what your skin type is.

Why?

Because the night cream that you use needs to be formulated for your skin type in order for it to provide maximum benefits.

How to Identify Your Skin Type

Not quite sure what your skin type is?

Have a read through the following to see which skin type your skin most resembles:

  • Dry Skin – Feels rough and flaky. Sometimes itchy, easily irritated, and can often feel tight. Look for products that contain humectants, such as glycerin and hyaluronic acid, as well as plant butters and oils
  • Oily Skin – Looks and feels greasy. Prone to acne breakouts. Look for products containing salicylic acid, witch hazel, and retinol. Non-comedogenic oils, such as jojoba oil, can be useful too
  • Combination Skin – A mixture of oily and dry. The oiliness most commonly affects the T-zone, while the dryness affects the cheeks. You’ll need two sets of products, one to target each area of your face
  • Normal Skin – Skin that is perfectly balanced, without any of the above issues. Feel free to experiment with the many exciting skin care products out there!
  • Sensitive Skin – Skin that is prone to redness and irritation. You’ll need ingredients that feel soothing and gentle, such as calendula extract, chamomile extract, and plant butters. Avoid anything heavily fragranced, as fragrances are a big culprit when it comes to triggering skin sensitivities

Keep in mind that your skin type can change, both because of age as well as with the seasons. This means that you’ll need to keep reassessing your skin type in order to ensure that your night cream is always suitable.

One great moisturizer for all skin types is the Resveratrol Malbec DNA Redefying Cream. With its variety of different plant oils and butters, as well as the moisture-binding properties of seaweed extract, this lush moisturizer would be the perfect addition to your skin care routine if you’ve got dry skin. 

Identify Specific Skin Concerns

Woman looking at skin in mirror

Now that we’ve gotten the basics out of the way, it’s time to have a think about the specific skin concerns that you want your night cream to address.

The time during which you are asleep is when your skin works to regenerate and heal itself, making this a great time to use supportive products.

Has your list of skin concerns gotten pretty long?

While there are plenty of night creams out there that promise to multi-task, it’s best looking for one that focuses on one or two specific issues. This way, all of the ingredients within it will be geared towards those specific skin concerns, meaning better results.

So, identify the biggest skin concern that you want to target, along with one or two others. Some of the most common are:

  • The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Skin that feels rough
  • Visible dark spots
  • Dull and uneven-looking skin

If you’re looking for an effective moisturizer, try the Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Night Cream. This is a night cream designed to tackle the visible signs of aging, including fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots. It’s a formula that’s well-suited to dry skin, and is also gentle enough for some sensitive skin types to use without any problems.

While it’s important to focus on your face, don’t forget about your neck and your chest either. These areas age just as quickly as the face, meaning that they need just as much TLC. In addition to using a night cream on your face, try this decadent formula for your neck and chest to keep this part of your body looking smooth, tight, and youthful.

Understand Ingredients

If you’ve come this far, then by now you should know your skin type and have identified the skin concerns you’re looking to treat.

You are now armed with enough information to start your night cream search.

Most skin care websites make it pretty easy to filter out products by skin type and skin concern. However, just because a product’s description promises to target specific issues, this doesn’t mean that you should immediately believe it.

Marketing is a clever thing, and it’s easy to be persuaded and misled by strategically-used words.

Of course, product samples can be useful at this stage. However, many products, especially those that are triggering changes in the deeper layers of your skin, will take a couple of weeks, if not months, to really make a difference. A sample sized product definitely won’t last that long!

So, how do you know if a product is really going to do what its packaging says it does?

That’s simple – take a look at the ingredient list.

Learning How to Read a Skincare Ingredient List

Woman looking at skincare products

All good skincare products will have an ingredient list. If the one you’re considering doesn’t, then steer clear.

However, for those who are new to the world of skin care, that long list of scientific names, many of which may look impossible to pronounce, can seem overwhelming.

Don’t worry – while it may take a bit of time, learning how to read an ingredient list will make you a much smarter skin care shopper in the future.

To start with, look at the order of the ingredients. This will reflect how much of each ingredient has been used in that product. The first ingredient on the list is the one that the majority of the product is made up of, while the last ingredient on the list has been used in very small amounts.

Now, when it comes to the individual ingredients on that list, this is going to require a little research on your part. You want to make sure that the ingredients used are suitable for your skin type, while also being capable of treating your skin concerns. While you don’t need to look up every single ingredient on that list, the first five to ten are the most important.

Ethical and Environmental Values

If ethics and the environment matter to you, then it’s important to make sure that the skin care brands that you use align to these values too. After all, you don’t want to be supporting a business that’s completely opposite something that you strongly believe in.

Animal Testing

One subject that really matters to many is animal testing. While there may not have been much of an alternative to this back in the day, scientific advancements mean that there really is no need to test cosmetic products on animals now.

Here at Vine Vera, animal testing is something that we are very strongly opposed to. We would never test any of our products on animals.

Harmful Preservatives

Preservatives are always going to be a necessity in skin care products. However, while preservatives may have gotten a bad rep over the years, they’re not all bad.

That being said, any brand that does use damaging preservatives is one that you should question. Take parabens as an example. This group of preservatives has been strongly linked to breast cancer and reproductive issues. They have also been found in the bodies of marine animals, showing devastating environmental effects.

For this reason, you won’t find any parabens in Vine Vera skincare products.

Sustainability

Sustainability is becoming increasingly important to people. Make sure that your chosen skin care brand holds up to sustainability standards. Packaging should be easily recyclable, and any botanical ingredients used should be sustainable to grow and harvest.

Set a Budget

Woman with credit card and laptop

When it comes to the many different skin care products out there, there are some that are worth investing in more than others, and a night cream is one of them.

A good night cream will truly look after your skin while you sleep, allowing you to wake up to complexion that looks perfectly healthy. This is a product that is worth spending a little extra on, even if this means that you need to cut your budget back in other areas of your skin care routine.

Plus, now that you understand how to find the perfect night cream, chances are that you won’t be willing to settle for anything less, even if that means spending a little bit more!
