I have been using and LOVING my Joanna Vargas Skincare Rescue Serum 🍊. Vitamin C is going to help brighten, even hyperpigmentation, help fine lines and wrinkles and smooth the texture of your skin. I’m sure most of you have heard of L-ascorbic acid. This is the truest form of Vitamin C but definitely the most unstable causing it to oxidize at a faster rate which can be not so good for your precious skin. Then there are many forms of Vitamin C derivatives that you may find that can also be effective and more stable. This serum uses Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate which is created by mixing Vitamin C and Isopalmitic acid together creating a more stable form. It absorbs into your skin faster than any other form so sensitive skin could be a little more irritated! This contains Vitamin E, squalane, fatty acids and elderberry extract to help brighten, even pigmentation, and strengthen your skins elasticity! According to their website- it also helps guard against cell mutation caused from the sun and pollution! ✨
All in all- this serum is a light weight, fast absorbing, luxurious serum. It’s more of like a dry oil in my opinion. I put a little in my palms, run gently then press in right after cleansing/toning. I typically only use this in the mornings, and APPLY sunscreen after! It also gives a lovely glow ✨ Joanna Vargas Skincare knows what she’s doing and I am super lucky to of received this to try out! 🖤 This runs at a pretty steep price $150 but I do find this offers and amazing blend of goods for my skin! There are a lot of alternative cheaper options, but this is a great splurge and gift for yourself if your looking for an upgrade 😘

This is definitely one of my more luxurious shots featuring my dream brands.
Summer Fridays truly has some of the best masks on the market. For one- all their masks are in these beautiful squeeze tubes, so it’s cleaner application. Secondly, their mask I find differ from all others. R+R is such a beautiful rosey scent blend with light exfoliation and oils to just give you skin a great glow. Overtime I swear is the best physical exfoliator on the market and is under looked. And jet lag is such a multitask mask that has multiple benefits but my faves are overnight masks and eye mask😍
Gisou is definitely a brand I have fallen in love with. I was so skeptical because of the price and if it was “over-hyped” but honestly - it’s truly amazing. Take this advice from someone who has spent thousands on her hair over the years (regretfully) and spent multiple dollars on products searching for the best ✨
Joanna Vargas I absolutely adore her and this brand. They bring luxury skincare for surreeee but this rescue serum is unlike any I’ve tried. It’s a light almost more dry oil texture vitamin c. It sinks in so quick and I love that! Spendy, but IMO worth it.
T.S. & K.D. foundation oil has pleasantly surprised me! I love mixing this in with my Kosas Cosmetics tinted face oil I feel like it helps the coverage go on better! Overall, I absolutely adore my fellow PNW The Skincare Diary girl, and I find this formulation is simple and sweet. Go check out this product and support local business owners!
Youth To The People lastly- the activated mist by YTTP. This has become a must need all day long for me. It’s so light weight, not strong, but powerful in hydration. I wish I could just dump this in a bowl and stick my face in it because it’s that good lol 😄

Finally getting a chance to try Joanna Vargas and so far really impressed with their chic minimalist packaging and results-oriented ingredients.
The Rejuvenating Serum is a luxurious face oil that is the essential foundation for all of your beauty rituals making it the ideal anti-aging moisturizer for your skin. This perfect portion of reviving oils (Argan, Neroli, Olive, Rosehip, and Jojoba) is loaded with antioxidants, anti-inflammatory properties and nourishing ingredients that promote cellular metabolism, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. I would this is a mid-weight oil that works best for me in the PM. And the scent! The Neroli really shines through and I ❤️ it!!!

The Twilight Face Masks are deep conditioning bamboo sheet masks that deliver Epidermal Growth Factor to promote optimal vibrancy and skin resilience. These incredible masks also utilize natural skin brightening Arbutin that is derived from the Bearberry Plant, Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) to improve the appearance of pores, uneven skin tone, fine lines and dullness, hydrating Sodium Hyaluronate, calming Allantoin, and Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 to stimulate collagen synthesis and promote firmer skin. Love these ingredients and love the fit of their sheet masks. Spent the morning looking at the other Joanna Vargas sheet masks because I’m officially hooked and NEED more!

YOUTH TO THE PEOPLE-Adaptogen Soothe + Hydrate Activated Mist with Reishi + Ashwagandha
The Joanna Vargas Daily Hydrating Cream has become my go-to day moisturizer. I really love this cream! It has a fluffy, whipped texture and feels very lightweight on the skin, yet it gives my dehydrated skin a good amount of hydration while giving a lovely matte finish.
I have other creams that are similarly light and moisturizing, but tend to leave me shiny (which when combined with sunscreen and a dewy BB cream can just be too much).
The ingredient list has a lot of great anti-aging inclusions such as a stable form of vitamin C, vitamin E, CoQ10, gluconolactone (a PHA), and some botanical emollients like cocoa butter, Shea butter, jojoba oil.
These natural butters and oils are probably why my thirsty skin loves this cream so much (but be aware cocoa butter isn't the best for acne-prone skin). This does also contain retinyl palmitate which can make you more photosensitive, so be sure to wear sunscreen.
I think this cream is PERFECT for my combination skin. It gives me enough moisture without leaving me an oil slick and has a beautiful texture.
Let's talk about antioxidants (AO for short), shall we? Sure, they're great for nutrition (which I desperately need after pastry school) but they're huge in skincare as well. We all know about the wonders of vitamin c (often L ascorbic acid) for dark spots, but its ability to defend against free radicals is what can really make a difference, especially if you live in a city. That's just one AO though, so I thought I'd go through more of them by rounding up a bunch of products with various AOs:
▪️ vit c isn't just in serums, like Drunk Elephant c-firma, but also in cleansers, creams and so on like the BeautyPie japanfusion transforming cleanser (which also has polyphenols, another AO) and Dr. Loretta intense brightening cream
▪️ kakadu plum is just one example of naturally occurring vit c, and it's in one of my favorites, Asarai response theory daily serum; another is rosehip oil in Goto-skincare face hero and Jurlique rose balancing serum
▪️ retinol is an AO too! I usually restrict it to nighttime, but gentle versions like those found in EVE LOM time retreat essence and JVSkincare daily serum can work during the day (with sunscreen of course)
▪️ speaking of SPF, COOLA sun silk drops have full spectrum protection AND an AO from mangosteen - AOs are anti-inflammatory, so it can help against sunburn too! Supergoop! superscreen similarly gets it from blue-green algae
▪️ take the same foods with AO properties and apply it to skincare, like the peach extract in SATURDAY Skincare freeze frame essence, carrot seed oil in Nuria Beauty defense serum, green tea in WOWYOU! super serum and VENN Skincare all-in-one concentrate, and kombucha in Fresh Beauty black tea kombucha essence
