Gold facial I hear you exclaim?? Yes ladies ... And gents may I add, I
had the pleasure of finally trying the Gold Collagen Facial. Now this facial
differs slightly from the Gold leaf facial which contain particles of gold to
give you an immediate and fresh glow.
Treating yourself to a facial is not a luxury a lot of us can afford,
at-home jobs are definitely the more purse friendly and less time consuming option
especially in our busy working lives!
But if you’re going DIY that
doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice on the quality.
Gold and beauty are a match made in heaven….Cleopatra became well identified
for her love of the Golden Mask and more recently I’ve read that celebrities
choose facials containing real gold flakes in their pursuit for everlasting
beauty. In Japan, it is already one of
the hottest skincare trends. Finally there
is an affordable way for the rest of us to acquire the beauty benefits of this valuable
and potent metal with the arrival in the UK of the luxurious 24k Gold Collagen
Face Masks.
The Mask uses pure mineral gold infused with
high-strength natural plant collagen and anti-oxidants including Vitamin E and Rose Essence to encourage collagen and elastin synthesis to reduce the
appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, whilst firming and hydrating the skin
for a youthful glow.
I had the opportunity of a lovely therapist coming to my house and
applying the mask, all she did was peel the mask from its pack, apply it to my
face and I sat back; relaxed and let the mask work its magic.
Here’s the science ……When applied to the skin, the ingredients in the
Gold Collagen mask are absorbed into the skin where they instantly begin to
form a protective layer against free radicals. They immediately react to the
skin’s natural chemistry and help to replace the collagen that decreases with
age. These pioneering masks contain 100%
high molecular plant collagen with 24k mineral gold which is absorbed at 10
times the rate of a traditional face mask.
I was quite impressed as the mask retained its moisture therefore was
very comfortable to wear and produced no mess. Here are a couple of pictures of me below - before and during the mask application.
After just 30 minutes my skin
looked plumper and felt smoother too - plus I managed to sneak in a cheeky nap.
Bonus!
Some benefits of gold on the skin:
- Slows down the skin's collagen depletion and elastic breakdown
- Stimulates cellular regrowth at the basal layer to regenerate
- Combats damaging free radicals
- Stabilizes skin immunity
- Rehydrates skin
- Improves skin elasticity, thus reducing the appearance of premature aging
