Everyone wants skin that looks bright and luminescent but, sadly, there’s so much out there that can sap away your skin’s natural radiance. From UV rays and pollution to unhealthy lifestyle habits, achieving glowing skin usually requires some time, patience, and dedication.

However, that’s where Vine Vera can help. With our skincare secrets and cutting-edge skincare formulas, glowing skin could be well within reach sooner than you think… 

Don’t Underestimate the Importance of Cleansing

It goes without saying that dirty skin isn’t going to glow. Even if you may think that your skin is clean, it most likely isn’t, unless you’ve just cleansed it. After all, not only is your skin continuously producing more sebum and dead skin cells, but environmental impurities cling to the skin’s surface too.

This makes regular cleansing a must if you want glowing skin. Ideally, you should be cleansing twice a day, so use a cleanser that’s effective yet not overly harsh. The Vine Vera Resveratrol Vitamin C Cleanser would be perfect for this. It’s fantastic at clearing away excess sebum, dead skin cells, and other impurities. At the same time, it’s packed with vitamins and antioxidants to leave the skin looking bright and rejuvenated.

To complete your cleanse, follow up with the Resveratrol Cabernet Toner. Brimming with aloe vera leaf juice, cucumber fruit extract, and resveratrol, it’ll give your skin a lit-from-within glow!

Hydration is Everything

Have you ever wondered what makes glowing skin glow? There are a few different factors that contribute to natural radiance, with hydration being a big one.

Hydrated skin cells look plump and full. This gives them a brighter, bouncier, and glowier finish. On the other hand, dehydrated skin cells look dull and lifeless. They often feel dry, rough, and itchy.

Hydration is important for everyone, but if you believe dehydration to be the reason behind your lack of a glow, it’s time to ramp up topical hydration even more. There are different types of skincare products out there that can help you with this, but serums tend to be the best choice. Due to how lightweight they are, they’re better at penetrating the skin than thick products. This means that active ingredients are carried deeper into the skin.

One of the best hydrating ingredients to look for when shopping for a serum is hyaluronic acid. It’s a compound that’s naturally produced by the human body, meaning that the skin readily accepts it. Since it’s a humectant, hyaluronic acid is able to bind moisture to the skin, leaving it with a plump glow.

You’ll find the ingredient in a few Vine Vera serums. The Resveratrol Chianti Revival Serum, for example, contains hyaluronic acid in its salt form, aka sodium hyaluronate. With smaller molecules than hyaluronic acid, sodium hyaluronate is loved for how it leaves even the deeper layers of skin feeling intensely hydrated. In this serum, it’s combined with glycerin, seaweed extract, and hydrolyzed elastin, all of which also boast humectant effects.

Protect Your Skin From the Dulling Effects of the Sun

If you want glowing skin, protecting your skin from the dulling effects of the sun is vital. Sure, in small doses, the sun can sometimes have the skin looking more radiant. However, allow all of that sun exposure to build up and it won’t be long before you’re sporting a dull, rough, and sallow complexion.

Why is this? Because not only does the sun dehydrate skin cells, but it also degrades the skin’s protein fibers. This means that everything from skin structure to elasticity to smoothness is affected, harming the appearance in multiple ways. 

So, to bring out your skin’s natural glow, you’ll need to keep sun damage at bay. One of the best ways to do this is with a broad-spectrum SPF 30 sunscreen. Either opt for a dedicated sunscreen that you apply to your skin after moisturizing or go with a two-in-one formula, such as the Vine Vera Resveratrol Cabernet Replenishing Moisture Cream SPF 30. It will keep your skin safe from UV damage while also giving your skin all of the vitamins and antioxidants that it needs to look clear, bright, and radiant. Even better, you won’t need to use a separate moisturizer before applying it, saving you an extra step in your skincare routine.

Turn to Ingredients That Brighten the Complexion

Certain skincare ingredients are famed for how they brighten the complexion. Whether this is down to how they even out the look of discoloration, lighten the appearance of dark spots, or give skin cells a brighter finish, these are the ingredients that you should be adding to your routine if you want glowing skin.

Which are the best complexion-brightening ingredients out there?

Vitamin C is one. Research shows that it has a de-pigmenting effect on the complexion, meaning that it will fade the visibility of dark spots and discoloration. In fact, vitamin C is such a superstar that we’ve dedicated a serum to it; the Resveratrol Vitamin C Serum. With two forms of vitamin C on offer, this serum provides a double dose of the antioxidant’s benefits.

Licorice root extract is another ingredient that has similar effects. Loved by people seeking a natural ingredient to fight the appearance of hyperpigmentation, this botanical lightens the look of dark spots, which makes the skin look brighter and more even. You can give it a try for yourself with the Vine Vera Resveratrol Pinot Noir Phyto-Silk. It’s a silky serum that also contains sodium hyaluronate, peptides, caffeine, and green tea extract.

A Weekly Exfoliant Will Remove Built-up Impurities

Even if you cleanse twice a day, this isn’t going to be enough on its own to give you glowing skin. After all, cleansing only cleans the surface of the skin. You need something a little more powerful to thoroughly clear out your pores so that your skin can truly glow.

This is where exfoliation becomes extremely useful. Not only will it ensure that your pores are free of any blockages, but it will also even out the feel of your skin’s texture while smoothing away the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles.

That said, using an overly harsh exfoliant will only leave your skin looking irritated and inflamed. Go with a gentle formula instead, like the Vine Vera Resveratrol Vitamin C Peeling. With mandelic acid to chemically remove dead skin cells and bamboo powder to provide some physical exfoliation, this product will quickly and effectively brighten your complexion, leaving you looking luminescent.

The Right Face Mask Can Give You an Instant Glow

Exfoliating your skin is a great way to instigate an instant glow, but you can enhance this even further by following your exfoliant up with a face mask. 

Face masks are great for tackling specific visible skin concerns. Since glowing skin is your aim, look for hydrating face masks that have been designed to brighten and rejuvenate the complexion. 

One mask that’s amazing for dry skin is the Vine Vera Resveratrol Pinot Noir Phyto-Silk Mask. It’s a leave-on mask, meaning that it provides a long-lasting dose of moisture. This is a godsend for dry or dehydrated skin, which needs a consistent stream of moisture in order for skin cells to feel replenished.

On the other hand, if your skin has been feeling oily or congested, consider a clay or magnetic mask instead. Clay masks, such as the Resveratrol Chianti Thermic Mask, are great for absorbing excess oil and impurities. They’ll help to mattify your complexion while giving it an inner glow. Magnetic masks, such as the Resveratrol Malbec DNA Magnetic Mask, have a similar effect, although they tend to be more hydrating than clay masks.

Be Consistent With Moisturizing

We mentioned earlier how important it is to keep your skin hydrated if you want it to glow. However, applying one or two hydrating serums will often not be enough to accomplish this goal. Instead, you’ll need to also add a good moisturizer to your skincare routine. Apply this to your skin after using your hydrating serums and you’ll be able to lock all of that extra moisture in, which will give your skin a gorgeous radiance.

Ideally, look for a moisturizer that can also help to brighten your complexion. As discussed, vitamin C is great for this. So, in addition to using a vitamin C serum, give your skin even more of this antioxidant by opting for a vitamin C moisturizer too, just like the Vine Vera Resveratrol Vitamin C Moisturizer. It combines vitamin C with vitamins A and E, which intensify the effects of the antioxidant, bringing you even better results.

Develop Healthy Lifestyle Habits

Although it’s important to have a good skincare routine, this on its own won’t be enough to give you glowing skin. Instead, your skincare routine needs to be paired with healthy lifestyle choices.

For example, your diet plays a significant role in your appearance. Fill your plates with plenty of antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables. Eat a rainbow of fresh produce – every different color out there signifies a different range of antioxidants. Whole grains and lean proteins are crucial too, while nuts, seeds, and healthy oils will give your skin the fatty acids that it needs to look supple and bouncy.

At the same time, you should also be drinking plenty of water. Hydrating serums are great for keeping the external layers of your skin hydrated, but they aren’t able to reach your deepest skin cells. Only the water that you drink can hydrate this layer, making it vital to keep your body quenched.

Make sure that you’re prioritizing beauty sleep too. Your skin heals and regenerates while you sleep. This is why sleep deprivation quickly affects the appearance. If you struggle to fall asleep at night, try winding up your day with a quick workout. Not only will this help to tire you out, but exercising will boost your circulation, which will leave your skin looking bright and rosy.

Achieve Glowing Skin With Vine Vera

For a lucky few, glowing skin comes naturally, without much effort required. However, for everyone else, that radiant glow takes time and dedication, although you’ll achieve the complexion of your dreams much faster than expected if you follow the skincare advice shared above!

Every country around the world has its own unique beauty rituals. Some may have died down over the generations but others are still go-to’s in the modern-day world, purely because of how truly effective they are.

If you’re looking to add a new twist to your skincare routine, here are some of Vine Vera’s favorite global beauty rituals to take inspiration from.

Brazil: It’s All About the Acai Berries 

Although the acai berry can be found growing in a few different South American countries, it’s abundant in Brazil. Often referred to as the Brazilian beauty berry, this superfruit is not just a staple ingredient in the country’s cuisine but is also revered when it comes to skincare.

Acai berries are a fantastic natural source of vitamins A and C. Both help to keep the complexion smooth, bright, and youthful. The superfruit is also loaded with omega fatty acids, which moisturize the skin to keep it feeling supple. 

If that weren’t enough, studies also show that acai berry can help to mitigate the appearance of oxidation-induced damage in the skin. This is why it’s such a superstar at preventing and reducing the visible signs of skin aging.

In Brazil, fresh acai berries are often applied directly to the skin. They’re sometimes softened in water first so that they’re easier to spread. However, let’s face it, that can get a little messy. Not to mention, fresh acai berries may be difficult to get your hands on, depending on where in the world you live.

An alternative would be to look for a skincare product that makes use of acai berry extract, like the Vine Vera Resveratrol Pinot Noir Phyto-Silk Mask. Acai isn’t the only superberry that features in this formula. This mask also contains extracts from goji, pomegranate, chokeberry, noni, bilberry, and more! As you can imagine, it’s a mask that has an incredible antioxidant content. This makes it capable of giving the skin a gorgeous glow.

Korea: Double Cleansing Will Give You a Dewy Complexion

Korea is famous for its beauty rituals. Over the years, many have made their way around the world, with the country cementing its reputation for being a leader when it comes to beauty innovation.

At Vine Vera, one of our favorite Korean beauty rituals is the double cleanse. It came about because of the Korean focus on preparing the skin. The better cleansed and prepped the skin is, the more benefits it will soak up from a skincare routine. With many Korean skincare routines consisting of at least ten steps, it’s easy to see why properly prepping the skin is so important.

That said, even if your skincare routine only involves a handful of steps, double cleansing can still be beneficial. It ensures that your skin is thoroughly cleansed. It usually does a much better job at this than a single cleanse.

How does double cleansing work?

It begins with an oil-based cleanser. Oils are great for tackling oily particles on the skin, meaning excess sebum and other oil-based impurities. Once this has been rinsed off, a water-based cleanser, such as the Vine Vera Resveratrol Vitamin C Cleanser, is applied. This will clear away dirt, along with any impurities that the oil-based cleanser wasn’t able to shift.

Double cleansing is a technique that’s suitable for all skin types. This makes it well worth trying if you have a couple of extra minutes to devote to your skincare routine.

West Africa: Soften and Soothe With a Shea Butter Massage

Shea butter is a fat that’s obtained from the nuts of the shea tree, which grows throughout West Africa. In this part of the world, shea butter is considered to be a very multi-purpose ingredient. Not only is it used as a cooking oil, but it also acts as an ingredient in its own right in many local dishes. On top of that, it forms the basis of many native beauty rituals too.

Africans have been using shea butter on their skin for centuries. It’s revered for its moisturizing properties, which are down to its high fatty acid content. Compared to other vegetable oils, shea butter boasts a much larger number of fatty acid constituents. This is how it’s able to soften and soothe the skin so effectively.

In its pure form, shea butter has quite a thick consistency. It’s also naturally oily in texture. This can be a godsend for those with severely dry skin. However, for others, it can feel a little too greasy, especially when used on the face.

One way to get around this is to look for skincare products that have combined shea butter with lighter ingredients. This way, you’ll still be benefiting from the fatty acid content that shea butter is famous for but won’t have to deal with the shine or breakouts that it could cause.

The Vine Vera Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Day Cream is one product to consider. In addition to shea butter, it also contains lightweight humectants, like betaine, along with niacinamide to even out the look of the skin, plus resveratrol to provide an antioxidant boost. 

You can treat your body to shea butter too with our Intensive Shea Body Butter. It melts into the skin quickly, leaving it feeling touchably soft!

Northern California: Mud Baths Exfoliate and Moisturize the Skin 

People have been using mud baths for centuries all over the world. However, they’ve always been particularly popular in Northern California. The volcanic nature of Napa Valley caused hot springs to appear around the region, with these being full of volcanic mud. Renowned for their therapeutic properties, people would flock to these hot springs from all around the country to try to soak away their aches, pains, and beauty concerns.

Today, mud baths continue to be one of Napa Valley’s biggest beauty rituals. However, if you’re not able to hop on a plane to California anytime soon, consider pampering your skin with the Vine Vera Resveratrol Shiraz Instentic Mask instead. 

This formula features silt, a primary component of mud. It’s rich in a number of different salts and minerals, including potassium, calcium, and sodium. It also contains a very small percentage of clay, making it feel incredibly detoxifying too. 

Our face mask enhances this even further with the addition of bentonite and kaolin. These two clays will help to pull excess oil and impurities away from your skin, purifying your complexion. To ensure that this mask doesn’t dry the skin out too much, it’s also packed with hydrating and moisturizing compounds, including seaweed extract, aloe vera leaf extract, soluble collagen, and vitamin E.

India: Coconut Oil Can Be Used For Just About Everything!

Coconut oil has been through quite a resurgence in recent years. It’s nothing new – it was first cultivated in India over 4000 years ago. However, it has been in the limelight a fair bit lately. It is now used all over the world for everything from food to hair care to skincare. 

However, is coconut oil really as great as it’s hyped up to be? Why has everyone been raving about it so much?

Well, Indians have been using it for centuries with fantastic results. Science confirms its efficacy – it helps to keep the skin feeling protected against damage while also soothing the appearance of inflammation. 

Just like shea butter, coconut oil is powered by fatty acids, making it a fantastic moisturizer. However, it can also be used to purify the complexion too, which the Vine Vera Resveratrol Malbec DNA Magnetic Mask highlights. 

This face mask combines coconut oil with a blend of other plant oils. With Marula oil, baobab seed oil, hemp seed oil, and sunflower seed oil backing up the coconut oil in this formula, it’s an incredibly moisturizing product. 

With that said, you won’t need to worry about all of these oils weighing your skin down. When you lift the mask off your skin, the heaviest components of the oils will come away with it. It leaves the skin looking dewy rather than greasy!

Scandinavia: The Heat From a Sauna Leaves the Skin Feeling Rejuvenated

Saunas are synonymous with Scandinavia. They’re one of the most traditional beauty rituals from this region, although they’re also revered for how they can boost a person’s health as well.

The main skin benefits that come from a sauna session include increased circulation and pores that feel relaxed. This leaves the pore openings feeling more flexible, allowing them to release any toxins and impurities that may be lurking within. This gives the skin a brighter and more rejuvenated appearance.

While you may be able to visit the sauna at your local gym or health spa, you can bring this experience to your own home with the Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Thermic Mask. This face mask gently heats up as it’s massaged into the skin, providing that relaxing, sauna-like effect. This enables it to purify the complexion, giving it a radiant, post-sauna glow!

Japan: Seaweed Should Be Both Eaten and Applied to the Skin

Seaweed is a huge part of the Japanese diet, so it only makes sense for the ingredient to cross over into the country’s beauty rituals too. After all, seaweed is an extremely nutrient-dense ingredient. This is something that the skin can benefit from in many ways.

For starters, seaweed is extremely hydrating. It has humectant properties, enabling it to bind moisture to the skin. This gives the skin a fuller and plumper finish.

Seaweed is also brimming with numerous vitamins, including A, C, and K. It’s packed with fatty acids, proteins, minerals, and many other bioactive compounds too. Add it to your beauty routine and you’ll soon notice that it helps your complexion in multiple ways!

How should you add seaweed to your skincare routine?

The Vine Vera Resveratrol Pinot Noir Phyto-Silk is the ideal way. Infused with algae extract, this lightweight moisturizer packs a long list of antioxidant-rich botanicals. From chamomile to licorice root to green tea, it’s a cream that will immediately plump and brighten your complexion.

Which Beauty Rituals Will You Be Trying?

Whether it’s double cleansing every evening or applying seaweed-infused skincare products to your skin, all of the beauty rituals featured above definitely have their merit. Give a few of them a try and you’ll soon understand why all of these traditions have only become more popular over time!

Natural skincare ingredients have been soaring in popularity lately. People are now rightly paying more attention to the compounds that they’re putting onto their skin, veering away from synthetic chemicals in favor of ingredients that have been derived from the natural world.

At Vine Vera, we’re all about harnessing the power and benefits that natural skincare ingredients have to offer. Whether you’re hoping to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fade the visibility of dark spots, or give your skin a moisture boost, here are some of the most potent natural ingredients to try:

Resveratrol

Let’s begin with resveratrol – our signature ingredient at Vine Vera. It’s a powerful polyphenol that’s naturally produced by more than 70 different plants, including grapes, blueberries, and plums. 

Resveratrol is an ingredient that has been subjected to a fair bit of scientific scrutiny. However, the results have always been impressive. Research shows that not only is resveratrol capable of significantly reducing the appearance of skin aging, but it also brightens the look of the skin and soothes the feeling of inflammation. Even better, it leaves skin cells feeling protected against environmental damage, therefore preventing more visible signs of aging from appearing.

Resveratrol is an ingredient that just about everyone would benefit from. This is why we’ve included it in every single Vine Vera product. Whether you’re shopping for a face cream, a body scrub, or anything else, go for a Vine Vera formula and you’ll be treating your skin to resveratrol too.

Aloe Vera

You’re probably already familiar with some of the benefits that aloe vera has to offer. It’s a go-to ingredient for dealing with sunburns because of how effectively it soothes the look and feel of inflammation. It feels incredibly calming and rejuvenating on the skin, and this is down to how it’s loaded with over 75 bioactive compounds, each one able to boost the complexion in its own way.

Aloe vera is another ingredient that you’ll find in several Vine Vera products. However, if you want to maximize its complexion-soothing abilities in the face of UV rays, turn your attention to the Vine Vera Resveratrol Cabernet Replenishing Moisture Cream SPF 30. 

Not only will this aloe vera-infused moisturizer protect your skin from the sun, but it will also soothe, soften, and hydrate your complexion. It’s rich in antioxidants too. As a result, this formula is also capable of diminishing the appearance of any existing sun damage on your face.

Green Tea Extract

Some natural skincare ingredients have earned themselves cult status over the years, with green tea extract being one of them. While all botanical ingredients contain antioxidants, green tea is thought to be superior because of its EGCG content. EGCG is a catechin that’s abundant in green tea. It’s a superstar at repairing the appearance of many forms of skin damage.

This makes green tea extract the perfect ingredient to use in your evening skincare routine. Its powerful antioxidants will help to counter the visibility of any damage that your skin has experienced over the course of the day. It will quickly restore a healthy-looking complexion while you sleep.

That’s why you’ll find the ingredient in the Vine Vera Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Night Cream. This moisturizer also boasts aloe vera extract to keep the skin feeling soothed while you snooze, plus vitamin A and B3 to rebalance the look of your skin tone, so that you wake up with a brighter and more radiant appearance.

Apple Stem Cells

We’ve already featured a few ingredients that can help to reduce the visible effects of sun damage, but here’s another one; apple stem cells. 

Although not quite as well-known as green tea or aloe vera, this botanical has been proven to help reduce the appearance of UVB damage. UVB rays target the outermost layers of the skin, causing dark spots, sunburns, and blistering. By adding apple stem cells to your skincare routine, you’ll be able to keep the appearance of all those issues at bay. This ingredient will ensure that your skin always looks clear, balanced, and bright.

How can you add this ingredient to your skincare routine? With the Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Age Correcting Syringe. This highly concentrated solution comes with a specialized applicator that enables you to easily target specific areas of your face that are displaying visible signs of damage. With a combination of apple stem cells, rose stem cells, sodium hyaluronate, peptides, and resveratrol, this powerful product boasts some of the best skincare ingredients around for reducing the visibility of skin damage and aging.

Licorice Root Extract

It doesn’t take much for the skin to end up looking discolored and uneven. Everything from sun damage to aging to acne can cause dark marks and shadows to appear on the skin. While many people turn to chemicals to help them lighten the look of this discoloration, there are several natural skincare ingredients that can help too, without any of the side effects that chemical lighteners can trigger.

Licorice root extract is the perfect example. Studies show that it’s a fantastic ingredient for lightening the look of hyperpigmentation and shadows. It leaves the skin looking better balanced and more even, therefore giving it a brighter finish too.

Since many people experience discoloration in the eye area, we’ve formulated our Resveratrol Cabernet High-Potency Eye Serum with licorice root extract. It also contains a number of other natural skincare ingredients that help to brighten and de-puff the complexion, including sage, comfrey, and golden seal root.

Shea Butter

Struggling with dry skin? There are plenty of plant butters and oils out there that can help with this, with shea butter being one. Obtained from the nuts of the shea tree, shea butter is packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and fatty acids. It provides the skin with a dose of moisture while also sealing off the skin’s surface. This prevents that newfound moisture from evaporating, keeping the complexion soft, supple, and hydrated for hours.

Due to these properties, shea butter works beautifully in moisturizers. That’s why we’ve added it to our Resveratrol Vitamin C Moisturizer. While shea butter soothes and softens the feel of the skin, vitamins A, C, and E work to brighten and rejuvenate the complexion. Along with a variety of other antioxidants, these skincare ingredients not only hydrate and moisturize the skin but will also assist in reducing the appearance of skin aging and damage.

Caffeine

If you’re a coffee drinker, then you’ll be all too familiar with how caffeine is so effective at perking a person up. This is why so many people find it difficult to kickstart their day without their morning cup of coffee!

Well, when it comes to your complexion, caffeine has a similar effect. It leaves the skin feeling stimulated, perking up the appearance to leave it looking revived. It’s a great ingredient for lifting and tightening the look of the skin, which is why you’ll find it in the Vine Vera Resveratrol Shiraz Instentic Facelift.

This moisturizer focuses on boosting the look of elasticity in the skin. With the assistance of caffeine, DMAE, squalane, and vitamins, it’s a formula that will leave your skin looking firmer, tighter, and younger. 

Cucumber Fruit Extract

We’ve already mentioned how some natural skincare ingredients, such as aloe vera, are great at soothing the feeling of inflamed skin. Well, other ingredients do this too, with cucumber fruit extract being a top contender. 

If you’ve ever placed cucumber slices over your eyes, then you’ll already know how calming and restoring this ingredient can feel. In extract form, this is enhanced even further. Cucumber fruit extract can effectively soothe the look of puffiness, redness, and irritation. At the same time, it also hydrates the skin, making it quite the multitasker!

These complexion-soothing properties make it the perfect ingredient to have in a toner, just like the Vine Vera Resveratrol Cabernet Toner. This formula combines a few different natural skincare ingredients that each calm the complexion. From cucumber fruit extract to chamomile extract to aloe vera extract, it’s easy to see how this toner is so good at eliminating any post-cleansing irritation that the skin may be experiencing.

Witch Hazel Extract

If you have acne-prone skin, then witch hazel extract may already be a big part of your skincare routine. If it’s not, you’re missing out. This is a botanical that can really help anyone that’s struggling with an excessively oily complexion.

How does it work? To start with, witch hazel is great at reducing the feeling of inflammation in the skin. As you probably know, inflammation triggers acne breakouts. This makes witch hazel a great ingredient for preventing the appearance of acne in the first place.

Many people with oily skin also suffer from enlarged pores. Witch hazel can help with that too. It tightens the visibility of pore openings, making the pores look far less noticeable. 

To add witch hazel extract to your skincare routine, check out the Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Revival Serum. In addition to witch hazel, it contains a few other natural skincare ingredients that can help with the feeling of oily skin and acne, including licorice root extract, vitamin C, kojic acid, and seaweed extract.

Kaolin

Last but not least, let’s talk about kaolin. It’s a clay that’s extremely effective at drawing impurities and excess oil away from the skin. Although primarily loved by people with oily, congested skin, kaolin works well on all skin types. It leaves the skin feeling deeply cleansed and detoxified, which is something that everybody would benefit from!

Kaolin works best when used as a face mask, with the Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Thermic Mask being a great example. This unique mask gently heats up as it’s applied to the skin, which intensifies the detoxifying feeling that the mask provides. With a combination of lemon peel extract, vitamin C, and coffee seed extract, this mask always leaves the skin looking refreshed, restored, and radiant.

Very few people have naturally perfect, flawless skin. Chances are that no matter how well you take care of your skin, you’ll still be left with at least one or two skincare problems that stump you. After all, between UV rays, pollution, the aging process, and certain lifestyle habits, there’s so much out there that can unbalance and potentially harm your skin, meaning that you’re likely to be dealing with different skincare problems as you progress through life.

Fortunately, it’s not all doom and gloom. Sure, some people find themselves battling certain skin concerns for various years. However, that’s often because they aren’t using the right products or techniques to tackle the issues at hand. 

That’s where Vine Vera comes in. Whether you’ve been struggling with the appearance of wrinkles, a dull-looking complexion, or pesky pimples, read on to learn more about how to combat some of the most common visible skin concerns out there.

Fine Lines and Wrinkles

One of the most common skincare problems that we hear about is fine lines and wrinkles, and this is because, in a way, they’re unavoidable. As the skin ages, the protein framework that holds the skin taut and tight starts to deteriorate. This can lead to the skin losing its volume and sagging, resulting in creases forming on the surface. While you can’t completely halt the aging process, there’s still plenty that you can do to plump and firm the look of your skin. This will then smooth away the visibility of your lines.

The Resveratrol Cabernet Plump & Correct Treatment

There aren’t many skincare products out there that can immediately soften and tighten the appearance of wrinkles, which is why the Resveratrol Cabernet Plump & Correct Treatment is such a hit. With sodium hyaluronate, DMAE, and acetyl hexapeptide-8, this formula will improve your complexion pretty much instantly. Meanwhile, apple and rose stem cell extracts, plus vitamins A and E, provide the much-needed antioxidants to give your skin a younger and fresher finish in the long run. 

The Resveratrol Vitamin C Moisturizer

When it comes to reversing the appearance of aging, antioxidants are what you need. Some of the most potent antioxidants in the industry also happen to be vitamins; nothing quite compares to the results that the combination of vitamins A, C, and E can provide. You’ll find all three in the Vine Vera Resveratrol Vitamin C Moisturizer. It’s also infused with a variety of plant extracts, butters, and oils. These will ensure that your skin feels soft, supple, and deeply moisturized each time you apply this cream. Use it day and night for the very best results!

Dullness and Dark Spots

Everyone wants a radiant complexion, but this is often easier said than done. There’s so much out there that can leave the skin looking dull and peppered with dark spots. This hyperpigmentation will only worsen if it isn’t taken care of. This makes it vital to work on lightening the look of discoloration as soon as it begins to appear. Fortunately, there are several skincare ingredients out there that have been proven to be more than capable of doing just that…

The Resveratrol Vitamin C Serum

One ingredient that’s a true superstar at lightening the look of hyperpigmentation is vitamin C. It doesn’t matter whether your discoloration has been caused by sun damage, hormones, or anything else, vitamin C will restore your complexion’s former radiance. The Vine Vera Vitamin C Serum contains two forms of this potent antioxidant. It also boasts vitamins A and E, along with resveratrol, making this one of the most antioxidant-rich serums around.

The Resveratrol Chianti Revival Serum

While vitamin C may be famed for how it can balance out the complexion, other ingredients do this well too. Kojic acid is one of them. This naturally-derived acid can effectively lighten the look of discoloration. In fact, it does this so well that it’s often recommended over some of the more potent, chemical-based complexion-lightening ingredients out there. Licorice root extract is another botanical that has the same impressive effect. You’ll find both ingredients in the Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Revival Serum. The formula also contains several peptides and humectants to strengthen and plump up the look of tired skin.

Dryness

People often experience a number of skincare problems related to dryness. From flaking to itching to redness, dry skin reacts in this way because it’s needing more moisture and lubrication. For whatever reason, your skin isn’t able to produce the amount of sebum that it needs. This is where your skincare routine needs to step in and save the day.

The Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Moisture Day Cream & Night Cream

If you have dry skin, then good moisturizers are essential. We’d recommend using separate day and night formulas. This way, you’ll be able to give your skin lightweight moisture during the day, followed by a heavier layer of hydration in the evenings. The Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Moisture Day Cream, with shea butter, vitamin E, and resveratrol, is the perfect daytime blend. Pair this with the Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Moisture Night Cream, with green tea, aloe vera, and niacinamide, and your skin will soon start to feel softer, dewier, and more supple.

The Resveratrol Pinot Noir Phyto-Silk Mask

A good daily skincare routine should help you to overcome most of your dryness-related skincare problems. However, if your skin could do with some extra TLC, then a moisturizing face mask will never go amiss, which is where the Resveratrol Pinot Noir Phyto-Silk Mask comes in. This is a leave-on formula, which gives the ingredients within the mask extra time to soak into your skin and quench your thirsty skin cells. With a long list of superfruit extracts, this mask not only moisturizes but provides a hefty dose of antioxidants too. This makes it great for repairing the look of damaged skin.

Acne

Acne is one of those skincare problems that’s often associated with teenagers, yet statistics show that adult acne is surprisingly common too. Triggered by a variety of different factors, including sun damage, hormonal fluctuations, and genetics, acne is a result of the skin producing too much sebum, which then ends up clogging pores. While there are plenty of acne treatments out there to experiment with, your skincare routine should ideally be aimed at preventing the appearance of acne from peppering your face in the first place.

The Resveratrol Vitamin C Cleanser

We’ve already talked about vitamin C in relation to aging and hyperpigmentation. However, it’s a game-changer when it comes to acne-prone skin too. Research shows that regular use of vitamin C can significantly reduce the appearance of acne lesions while soothing the look of inflamed skin. Of course, when dealing with acne, clearing away excess oil from the surface of your skin should be a priority too, and the Resveratrol Vitamin C Cleanser allows you to do all of this with just one product. This formula also contains lactic acid. It’s an alpha-hydroxy acid that allows the cleanser to work on a slightly deeper level, which is always a bonus when your skin is producing too much sebum.

The Resveratrol Vitamin C Peeling

Another way to incorporate vitamin C into your skincare routine while also diminishing the look of breakouts is with the Resveratrol Vitamin C Peeling. This is an exfoliant, meaning that it will dive deeper into the skin than a cleanser. It’s a superstar at pulling impurities out from pore openings. This is vital if you’re trying to prevent the appearance of breakouts since clogged pores are the precursor to pimples. The fact that this exfoliant happens to be loaded with powerful antioxidants makes it even better. In addition to exfoliating your skin, it will also be able to brighten, tighten, and revitalize your entire complexion.

Sensitivities

If you have sensitive skin, then this means that your skin barrier has been compromised in some way. This can happen for a variety of reasons. However, either way, the fact that your skin barrier isn’t functioning in the way that it should allows environmental impurities to easily enter into your skin. Once these impurities reach your skin cells, they stimulate inflammation. In order to counter the near-constant feeling of irritation that sensitive skin has to deal with, you need to look for skincare products that will leave your skin barrier feeling strengthened and supported.

The Resveratrol Cabernet Toner

Cleansing should be the first step of everyone’s skincare routine. While this may be the case, those with sensitive skin often dread how irritated their skin can feel after a thorough cleanse. This is down to the way in which many cleansers throw off the skin’s natural pH balance. One way to leave your skin feeling restored once again is with a good toner, just like Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Cabernet Toner. This lightweight formula boasts a short ingredient list, making it ideal for those with sensitivities. It’s filled with ingredients that will hydrate, soothe, and restore the complexion. Its lineup includes aloe vera leaf juice, resveratrol, and cucumber fruit extract. It’s a formula capable of calming the feeling of sensitivities to leave the skin feeling its very best post-cleanse.

The Resveratrol Cabernet Replenishing Moisture Cream SPF 30

So many skincare problems are caused by UV damage. This means that everybody should be making an effort to protect their skin from the sun. However, if you’re already prone to sensitivities, then you need to be giving sun protection even more attention. After all, your skin will be extra susceptible to UV damage. The Resveratrol Cabernet Replenishing Moisture Cream SPF 30 makes this easy. It’s a gentle moisturizer that will deeply hydrate and soothe your complexion while also protecting it from the sun. At the same time, its vitamin and antioxidant content will help to brighten and tighten your appearance. It will leave your skin looking radiant and healthy.

Tackle Your Visible Skincare Problems With Vine Vera

Many of the most common visible skincare problems out there can be rectified with the use of the right skincare products. Sure, it may take a little trial and error at first to find the formulas that work best with your skin but, once you do, it won’t be long before you’re sporting the flawless, healthy-looking complexion that you’ve been trying to achieve.

Have you been noticing dark circles appearing under your eyes? Although they don’t pose any sort of health risk, dark circles can make a person look tired and older, making it no surprise that you want them gone ASAP. 

Fortunately, there are several steps that you can take to do just that. Read on as Vine Vera explains why your dark circles have developed in the first place, along with different effective ways in which you can reduce their appearance.

What Causes Dark Circles Under the Eyes?

People often blame dark circles on a lack of sleep, and while this may be one of the causes, it’s not the main one.

For many people, particularly those of Asian or African descent, dark circles are often hereditary. Lower eyelid skin is thinner, meaning that the veins that lie beneath the skin are more visible, resulting in dark circles.

Allergies are also a big contributing factor. This dilates the veins underneath the eyes, making the area look much darker.

Aging is to blame as well, as is eye strain. Of course, in many cases, dark circles appear due to a combination of different factors, making them seem even harder to eradicate.

How to Banish the Appearance of Dark Circles Under Your Eyes

So, what can you do to diminish the appearance of your dark circles? 

Here are some steps that you can take:

Use an Eye Serum That Lightens the Look of Dark Circles

One of the best ways to lighten the look of dark circles is to use an eye serum that has been designed to do just that. Eye creams work well too, but eye serums are designed to delve deeper into the skin. This usually means that they’re able to produce results much faster.

One product that does this extremely well is the Vine Vera Resveratrol Cabernet High-Potency Eye Serum. It contains a few different ingredients that can help with the appearance of dark circles, one of them being licorice root extract. If your dark circles are caused by hyperpigmentation, then you’ll love how licorice root extract has been proven to fade the look of discoloration to even out the complexion.

This formula also contains vitamin C. This antioxidant is revered for how it can lighten the visibility of dark patches on the skin while brightening the overall complexion. It works even more impressively when combined with other antioxidants, which this serum provides in the form of golden seal root extract, purple coneflower extract, and sage leaf extract.

For best results, you’ll need to use your new eye serum daily. This way, the ingredients will be able to accumulate in your skin over time and really make a difference.

Lay Chilled Tea Bags Over Your Eyes

If your dark circles are accompanied by puffiness and swelling, then constricting the appearance of the blood vessels beneath should help to make all of your eye area issues less noticeable. A cold compress does this well, but you can double up on your results by using tea bags as your cold compress.

Why tea bags? Because they contain caffeine and plenty of antioxidants. These will help to de-puff and brighten your complexion. Black tea works well, but green tea can often be the better option due to how it’s also able to keep the skin feeling protected against environmental damage. It contains a selection of powerful antioxidants and phenolic compounds that other types of tea lack.

Simply soak two tea bags in hot water for five minutes, before placing them in the fridge for 20 minutes. Once they’re fully chilled, lay them over your eye area for 10-20 minutes. Once you’re done, give your eye area a rinse and follow up with your favorite Vine Vera eye serum.

If all of that sounds like too much hassle, then skip the tea bags and look for an eye serum that contains green tea extract instead, such as Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Age Defying Eye Serum. Store your serum in the fridge so that it feels cool on your skin when you apply it. It may not be a traditional cold compress, but it will work just as well at giving your skin a blast of a cool temperature.

Keep Your Eye Area Hydrated

Dark circles are extremely common in dehydrated skin. The lack of hydration leads to a dull complexion, with the eye area looking sunken and dark. 

Drinking more water is a must, as is increasing your intake of water-rich foods. However, it will take a while for this to filter through to your skin. So, you should also be using the right topical products to ensure that your skin remains adequately hydrated.

A hydrating eye cream would be a good move. However, if you don’t want to invest in yet another eye care product, you could also just use a hydrating face cream that’s safe for the eye area, like the Vine Vera Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Moisture Day Cream. Infused with shea butter, glycerin, and vitamin E, this moisturizer will quench thirsty skin cells all over your face.

It’s also worth noting that this cream contains niacinamide. Research shows that niacinamide can significantly decrease the appearance of hyperpigmentation, making it a great ingredient to use on dark circles.

Use Products That Will Thicken the Feel of Your Skin

As we mentioned earlier, dark circles can often be caused by the aging process. As the skin ages, collagen and elastin production decline. This leads to the skin thinning out, which means that the blood vessels underneath become much more visible.

While skin aging may be inevitable to an extent, there are plenty of products out there that can reduce the visibility of aging while thickening the look of the skin. 

Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Cabernet 60-Second Eye Solution is a great example. This formula has been crafted specifically to diminish the look of aging around the eyes, and so it contains a powerful blend of ingredients that enable it to do just that. Between acetyl hexapeptide-8, sodium hyaluronate, and resveratrol, your skin will immediately look thicker and brighter as soon as you’ve applied this specialized product.

Vitamin C is another ingredient revered for how it can thicken the feel of the skin. It also helps with the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, making it a great ingredient for dealing with both dark circles as well as skin aging. 

Treat yourself to Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Vitamin C Serum and you’ll be able to benefit from two different forms of the antioxidant. It also contains vitamin A, vitamin E, and resveratrol, all of which can also help to fade the look of discolored skin and counter the visible signs of skin aging.

Be Gentle With Your Eye Area

Do you scrub at your face when exfoliating it or tug at your skin when removing makeup? If so, these habits could be making your dark circles even worse.

How? Because being rough with your skin weakens your capillaries, therefore accelerating the skin aging process. This then means that your skin will thin out at a much faster rate, making dark circles look more obvious.

Of course, in addition to being gentle with your skin in a physical sense, you should also be mindful of the topical ingredients that you’re applying to your eye area. Some skincare products, particularly cleansers, are notorious for how they slowly strip away the skin’s protective barrier, once again accelerating skin aging.

So, as much as possible, use gentle products around your eyes. If your cleanser contains harsh sulfates, swap it for a formula that uses milder surfactants, such as Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Cabernet Mousse Cleanser. This cleanser also boasts amino acids, niacinamide, and resveratrol to strengthen and thicken the feel of the skin. 

A gentle exfoliant is essential too. Avoid harsh face scrubs as these will just tear and tug at your skin. Instead, consider the Vine Vera Resveratrol Vitamin C Peeling. We’ve already raved about the benefits of vitamin C, and this exfoliant contains plenty of it. It also makes use of mandelic acid to gently exfoliate the skin without causing any damage.

Protect Your Eye Area From UV Damage

The sun can contribute to dark circles in a couple of different ways.

Firstly, whenever your skin is exposed to the sun’s UV rays, it ramps up melanin production. Too much sun exposure causes it to produce too much melanin, resulting in hyperpigmentation and dark circles.

UV rays also drastically speed up the aging process, which thins the skin and causes dark circles. In fact, UV rays are the main culprit behind skin aging. Protect your skin from the sun and you’ll be able to keep it looking youthful for so much longer. 

One way to do this is with the Vine Vera Resveratrol Cabernet Replenishing Moisture Cream SPF 30. It’s a two-in-one product, acting as both a moisturizer and a sunscreen. As a result, in addition to protecting your skin from sun damage, it also contains vitamins and antioxidants to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and skin aging. This means that not only will it prevent the appearance of your dark circles from turning even darker, but it will also lighten the look of the dark circles that you’re currently dealing with.

While SPF is so important when it comes to preventing sun damage, don’t rely on this alone. Pair a good sunscreen with other UV-blocking measures, such as wearing sun-protecting accessories. A pair of large sunglasses coupled with a wide-brimmed hat can really help to shield the eye area from UV rays. They form a physical barrier that UV rays will struggle to penetrate through. And, even if they do manage, your sunscreen will be lying underneath to ensure that your skin remains fully protected!

Summary

For some people, the appearance of dark circles is a temporary issue that can be banished with the right lifestyle choices and skincare products. However, for others, it can be genetic, meaning that lightening the look of dark circles can take a while. Either way, consistently follow the tips above and you’ll be on the right track to banishing the visibility of your dark circles for good!

With so much conflicting advice out there, the world of skincare can seem like a minefield. If you want to take care of your skin in the best way possible, there’s so much to remember. One wrong move and you could find yourself battling an entire array of new skin concerns.

However, while skincare can sometimes seem complicated, it doesn’t necessarily need to be, and this is what Vine Vera is here to help with. Keep the following dos and don’ts in mind when it comes to caring for your skin and it won’t be long before your complexion starts to look better than ever!

Do: Wear a Sunscreen, No Matter the Season

The single most important thing that you could do for your skin is to protect it from sun damage. Not only do UV rays increase your risk of developing skin cancer, but they also significantly accelerate the skin aging process. In fact, studies show that up to 80% of the visible signs of aging on the face, meaning the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin, are caused by sun exposure. 

Fortunately, it’s never too late to start giving your skin that little bit extra. If you know you’ve been slacking when it comes to sun protection, now is the time to change. Find yourself a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 and make sure that you apply this to your skin each and every day. Pick a formula that you genuinely love because you’ll need to use it throughout the year. Even on a dull winter’s day, UVB rays still wreak their damage, so your skin really does need year-round protection.

If you don’t want to add an extra product to your skincare routine, look for a moisturizer that contains SPF, such as Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Cabernet Replenishing Moisture Cream SPF 30. This lightweight moisturizer will shield your skin from the sun’s UV rays. At the same time, it will hydrate, soothe, and brighten your complexion. It’s the perfect two-in-one product!

Don’t: Allow Your Skin to Become Dehydrated

It’s common knowledge that the body needs plenty of water in order to properly function. And with the skin being the body’s largest organ, it goes without saying that your skin cells need to be kept quenched too.

However, this is often easier said than done. Although we all know how important water is, the majority of Americans fail to drink enough of it, leaving 75% of the population suffering from chronic dehydration.

Not only will this affect your body, but your skin will suffer too. Dehydrated skin looks dull, dry, and shadowed. It lacks bounce and elasticity, and can often feel itchy. 

Drinking more water will help to slowly hydrate your skin cells. However, you can speed things up by adding a few hydrating skincare products to your routine. This way, your skin receives extra hydration topically as well as from within.

The Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Morning Recovery is perfect for this. It’s packed with humectants, including glycerin and aloe vera. These bind moisture to the skin. At the same time, shea butter, olive oil, and peptides work to fortify the feel of your skin’s barrier. This helps to prevent moisture from evaporating out of the skin, leaving your skin feeling deeply hydrated for longer.

Do: Shop for Your Skin Type

It can be tempting to purchase a product simply because of a snazzy ingredient that it contains, or due to a super-convincing advert. However, if that product hasn’t been designed for your skin type, then resist that urge!

There are five main skin types out there; dry, oily, combination, sensitive, and normal. Each skin type has its own unique needs, and you need to be using products that cater to those. This will save you from unintentionally damaging your skin, while also giving you the best results possible from your skincare routine.

Need some help picking products for your skin type?

If you have oily skin, you’ll love the Vine Vera Resveratrol Vitamin C Peeling. It’s a unique exfoliant that will clear away pore blockages to leave your skin feeling refreshed and grease-free.

For dry skin, our Resveratrol Cabernet High-Potency Moisture Day Cream will work wonders. It’s loaded with shea butter, vitamins, and antioxidants to soften and smooth the feel of the skin.

If you have combination skin, give our Resveratrol Vitamin C Moisturizer a try. It will leave your dry areas feeling moisturized while minimizing the look of grease on the oily parts of your face.

Don’t: Over-Exfoliate

Exfoliation is key when it comes to achieving and maintaining healthy-looking skin. It can also feel incredibly satisfying to slough all of those dead skin cells off. The face always seems to look brighter and more radiant after it has been exfoliated! 

This is why so many people end up exfoliating their skin more than they should. Unfortunately, this can cause a fair bit of harm, resulting in symptoms of over-exfoliation. From irritation, redness, and burning to breakouts, sensitivities, and dryness, the effects of over-exfoliation are varied. This makes it difficult to pinpoint exfoliation as the cause of these concerns, which only prolongs the cycle of damage.

If you’ve been noticing those symptoms, stop exfoliating for a few weeks to give your skin some time to recover. Be extra gentle with your skin during this time, as its barrier will be damaged. Then, introduce exfoliation back into your routine very gradually. If you have dry or sensitive skin, you only need to be exfoliating once a week. The same applies to many people with oily and combination skin, although some find it useful to exfoliate a little more often.

Over-exfoliation can also be caused by using an overly harsh exfoliant. So, pick a gentle, skin-loving formula, like Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Cabernet High-Potency Cellular Peel. It will thoroughly exfoliate your skin while leaving your complexion plump and hydrated at the same time.

Do: Have Separate Day and Night Skincare Routines

If you’re only just beginning your skincare journey, having a single skincare routine that you follow both morning and night can help to keep things simple. However, once you settle into a good routine, it would be worth investing in dedicated daytime and nighttime products.

Why? Because the skin’s needs change depending on the time of day, thanks to its natural circadian rhythm. During the day, it defends the body from environmental damage, be it UV rays, pollution, or anything else. At night, it works hard to repair and restore damage, before starting all over again the next day.

Ideally, the skincare products that you use should leave your skin cells feeling supported as they go about these various tasks. However, in order to do this, you’ll need products that have been formulated for those specific times of day.

We’ve already shared two of Vine Vera’s bestselling day creams above. Both will keep your skin feeling protected as you go about your day. 

At night, pamper your skin with the Vine Vera Resveratrol Cabernet High-Potency Night Cream. It’s brimming with a powerful collection of vitamins and antioxidants. These will help to repair and rejuvenate the look of damage so that you wake up with a fresh, smooth, and glowing complexion.

Don’t: Stress

Nobody enjoys feeling consistently stressed out. It can affect so many different aspects of a person’s physical and mental health, not to mention the effects that it can have on the skin.

Stress has been linked to a number of different visible skin concerns, including inflammation, itching, and compromised skin barrier function. It can trigger everything from dryness and flakiness to angry acne breakouts.

If stress plays a big role in your life, it’s time to start learning how to diffuse all of that tension, so that both your mind and your complexion can relax. There are plenty of proven stress-busting methods out there, so find something that works well for you. Whether this may be taking a walk, journaling, listening to music, or deep breathing, learning how to alleviate stress could really transform your complexion.

It would also be worth giving your skin some extra TLC during times of stress. Face masks are a great way to de-stress the complexion, while also encouraging you to relax and enjoy some me-time. For a decadent spa-like experience, turn to Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Chianti Thermic Mask. It’s a self-heating face mask that not only feels incredibly soothing but will also bestow your skin with some of the most powerful antioxidants in skincare.

Don’t: Apply Your Skincare Products in the Wrong Order

This is the bit that often throws skincare newbies; remembering the order in which to apply skincare products.

Does this really matter? 100%.

For example, a cleanser should always be the very first product that you use. If you skip the cleanser, then the rest of your products won’t be able to effectively penetrate into your skin due to all of the dirt and oil blocking the way. Even if you think that your skin isn’t dirty, it is. So, cleanse it first.

After this, you’ll need to organize your skincare products in order of thickness. Then, start with the lightest one and work your way up to the richest and thickest formula. This usually means following your cleanser up with toners and essences, before applying serums and then, finally, moisturizers.

Why is this important?

Because if you slather your face with a cream first and then try to apply a serum over the top, that serum isn’t going to be able to work its way through the cream to actually reach your skin cells. As a result, it won’t have much, if any, of an effect. Get the order of your skincare routine right and you’ll be able to maximize on the benefits that your skincare products could potentially provide.

Summary

If you’ve been feeling concerned about your skincare routine or the methods that you’re using to care for your skin, try following the tips above. From understanding the order in which to apply your products to keeping your skin protected from sun damage, these dos and don’ts encompass everything that you need to know to achieve a flawless complexion.

A moisturizer is a must-have in every skincare routine, no matter your skin type. In addition to providing your skin with a dose of hydration, moisturizers also help to improve natural moisture retention while strengthening the feel of the skin barrier, which is something that every skin type benefits from.

However, choosing the right moisturizer for skin type isn’t quite as easy as it may initially seem. Use a formula that hasn’t been designed with your skin type in mind and you could end up with a whole host of different skin problems.

That’s where Vine Vera can step in to help. If you’ve been browsing our range of exquisite moisturizers but aren’t sure which to pick, then read on – we’re about to explain exactly how to match your skin type with the perfect moisturizer.

Choosing a Moisturizer For Dry Skin

If you have dry skin, then this means that your skin isn’t producing enough sebum. This is the natural oil that keeps the skin hydrated and moisturized, making the use of a good moisturizer more important than ever.

Since dry skin usually has a compromised skin barrier, you’ll need a relatively thick and rich cream. Emollient and occlusive ingredients are particularly important. Emollients will help to fill in the tiny cracks on the surface of your skin. Meanwhile, occlusives form their own layer over the top of the skin. This helps the skin barrier to feel supported and reinforced.

Where can you find a good moisturizer for skin type that’s dry? Here are two formulas that are guaranteed to leave your skin feeling deeply replenished:

The Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Moisture Day Cream

We mentioned above that dry skin really benefits from a rich moisturizer. However, you don’t want to be using anything too thick during the day. This can leave the skin feeling heavy while making it much harder to apply makeup over the top.

That’s why we created our Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Moisture Day Cream. It’s luxuriously rich but still lightweight enough to quickly sink into the skin. Any makeup that you apply afterward will glide onto your skin with ease.

Take a look at this cream’s ingredient list and you’ll notice that it boasts both emollient and occlusive ingredients, in the form of shea butter and sunflower seed oil. Both of these natural ingredients are brimming with essential fatty acids. These are exactly what you need to help your natural skin barrier feel restored. Use them regularly and it won’t be long before your skin barrier feels resilient enough to improve its moisture retention rate. This will help to reduce the look of dryness in the long run.

There are a few other noteworthy ingredients in this moisturizer, including niacinamide and resveratrol. Niacinamide is also known as vitamin B3. It’s fantastic for soothing and balancing the complexion while supporting the feel of the skin barrier. Meanwhile, resveratrol is an extremely potent antioxidant. It’s our signature ingredient here at Vine Vera because of how effectively it can diminish the look of skin damage, while also keeping the skin feeling protected from all of the potential environmental damage that it could experience over the course of the day.

The Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Night Cream

While you may fall into a deep slumber each night, your skin cells remain wide awake. While you sleep, they focus on repair and regeneration. In order to do this efficiently, they need plenty of moisture, which dry skin struggles to provide. In fact, studies have found that moisture loss is at its highest overnight. This is why people with dry skin often wake up feeling even drier each morning.

So, a nighttime moisturizer for skin type that’s dry needs to be relatively thick in order to keep your skin feeling hydrated for all of those hours. That’s exactly what our Resveratrol Cabernet High Potency Night Cream does.

This moisturizer is filled with a few different humectants to maintain skin hydration levels. From glycerin to aloe vera leaf extract, this formula will leave your skin feeling soft and supple come morning.

Of course, in order to keep the skin cells feeling supported while they work hard at night, vitamins and antioxidants are vital too. In this night cream, you’ll find vitamins A and B3, along with green tea extract. This is one of the best sources of antioxidants that the natural world has to offer. Its most revered compound is EGCG, which can heal the look of environmental damage. The resveratrol in this cream helps with that too, making this powerful blend ideal for dealing with dryness.

Choosing a Moisturizer for Oily Skin

Many people with oily skin think that they don’t need to moisturize since their skin is already greasy enough. However, this isn’t the case at all…

Sure, your skin produces plenty of oil, but oil is very different from water. When it comes to keeping your skin cells functioning optimally, moisture, meaning water, is what you need, making a moisturizer absolutely essential.

The key is to choose the right moisturizer for skin type. Look for formulas containing non-comedogenic ingredients. This means that they won’t clog up your pores or leave your skin feeling even oilier. If your skin is prone to acne breakouts, which oily skin types usually are, then your moisturizer should also ideally contain ingredients that can address how oily your skin feels and mattify your complexion, while also soothing the feeling of inflammation. Here’s one that will do all of that plus so much more:

The Resveratrol Vitamin C Moisturizer

There are a number of ingredients in the Vine Vera Resveratrol Vitamin C Moisturizer that make it the perfect moisturizer for skin type that’s oily. For starters, shea butter. Many assume that this botanical is too rich for oily skin but it’s actually a non-comedogenic ingredient. In fact, it contains certain fatty acids that help to rebalance how greasy the skin feels and clear away the look of oil. Shea butter has been proven to soothe the feeling of inflammation as well, which oily skin types are very susceptible to.

As you can tell from the name of this moisturizer, this formula is infused with vitamin C too. This is another ingredient that can help with the feeling of inflamed and irritated skin. However, vitamin C’s biggest benefit is how it brightens the complexion. If your skin tone has been looking uneven or you’re peppered with dark marks from past acne breakouts, then vitamin C will help to lighten the look of discoloration to leave your complexion beautifully radiant.

A few other noteworthy ingredients in this moisturizer include chamomile extract, vitamin E, and white tea leaf extract. All of these offer up soothing effects for the complexion as well, while also delivering a hefty load of antioxidants.

Finally, let’s talk about vitamin A. Many turn to this ingredient as a way to reduce the visible signs of skin aging. However, it’s also a great addition to a moisturizer for skin type that’s oily because of how it can regulate a greasy complexion and shrink the look of enlarged pores. It works even more efficiently when combined with vitamin C. This multitasking quality is why you’ll find vitamin A in our Resveratrol Vitamin C Moisturizer.

Choosing a Moisturizer for Mature Skin

While not technically a skin type, mature skin has its own unique set of characteristics that are worth keeping in mind if you’re searching for a new moisturizer. 

For starters, it’s much thinner than young skin. The skin naturally loses thickness and volume with age, which also means that it dries out much faster. As a result, those with mature skin are usually best looking for a moisturizer for skin type that’s dry.

Of course, in order to combat the appearance of aging, you’ll also need plenty of vitamins and antioxidants. These will help to fight the visibility of all of the free radical damage that has built up in your skin over the years. This damage usually manifests as accelerated skin aging, meaning wrinkles, dark spots, and the loss of elasticity. Therefore, if you use a moisturizer that can tackle the appearance of all of these issues, you’ll be left with skin that looks significantly younger.

The Vine Vera Resveratrol Shiraz Instentic Facelift

One of the best Vine Vera face creams for mature skin is the Resveratrol Shiraz Instentic Facelift. Why? Because this moisturizer has been designed to firm, tighten, and lift an aging complexion.

It contains a number of ingredients that will help to hydrate and thicken the look of thin skin. From squalane and glycerin to soybean oil and collagen, these ingredients will make your skin feel much bouncier and more resilient. They’ll also give your skin a plumper and more voluminous finish.

Since mature skin requires plenty of antioxidants, we’ve added vitamins A, C, and E to this formula, along with resveratrol. This is one of the best combinations of antioxidants out there as it will tackle the appearance of aging from multiple angles, meaning faster results.

You’ll find caffeine in this blend too. It’s an extraordinary ingredient for perking up the look of tired and dull skin. It will restore vibrancy to your complexion, leaving it looking fuller and brighter.

DMAE, which you’ll find on the ingredient list as dimethylaminoethanol tartrate, is worth a mention as well. Studies show that DMAE is extremely successful at smoothing away the look of wrinkles, even those deeper folds that other ingredients can’t seem to touch. It also helps to increase how firm the skin feels while reducing the look of inflammation, and aging skin benefits from all of this.

Summary

It can sometimes take a while to find the right moisturizer for skin type-related problems. Some formulas may state that they’ve been designed for certain skin types, yet they still contain ingredients that aren’t quite suitable. That’s why the best way to determine whether or not a formula will work for your skin is by assessing the ingredient list yourself. If you have oily skin, make sure that the moisturizer doesn’t contain any heavy, pore-clogging ingredients. Likewise, for dry skin, look for rich compounds that will deeply hydrate and strengthen the feel of your skin barrier. Once you know what to look for, you’ll be able to shop for your skincare like a pro!

Hyaluronic acid has become quite the skincare buzzword. From cleansers to serums to creams, it can now be found in just about every type of skincare product, with dermatologists and beauty experts worldwide singing its praises.

However, what exactly are the benefits that hyaluronic acid can bring to your skin? Why is this ingredient such a go-to for so many? Read on as Vine Vera explains exactly why hyaluronic acid should be a key component of your skincare routine.

What is Hyaluronic Acid?

Hyaluronic acid is a substance that’s naturally produced in the human body. Technically, it’s made up of polysaccharides, which are sugar molecules. 

Hyaluronic acid naturally has quite a slippery consistency. One of its main functions is to lubricate and cushion the joints. This is why it’s found throughout the connective tissues in the body. 

Of course, the skin contains a large amount of hyaluronic acid too, particularly when it’s young. Sadly, once a person hits the age of around 25, natural hyaluronic acid production starts to decline. You may not notice the effects of this immediately, but they’ll start to become more visible as you progress through life.

What Does Hyaluronic Acid Do For the Skin?

So, why exactly is hyaluronic acid such an important part of your skin? What does it actually do?

Well, its main benefit lies in how it quickly and effectively hydrates the skin. It functions as a humectant, which means that it has the ability to bind moisture to the skin.

Everyone’s skin needs moisture, no matter their skin type. However, unlike many of the other hydrating ingredients out there, which can sometimes feel heavy on the skin, hyaluronic acid is extremely lightweight. This helps to give it a wide appeal. With hyaluronic acid helping to keep the skin’s moisture levels topped up, the complexion can take on a plumper and more supple finish.

This leads to the much-loved secondary benefit offered by hyaluronic acid; the ability to reduce the appearance of skin aging. Research indicates that skin aging correlates with the loss of moisture. By giving the skin an all-important moisture boost, hyaluronic acid has been proven to help with everything from the visibility of wrinkles to the feeling of skin elasticity. Regular use of this ingredient can give the skin a significantly tighter, firmer, and more youthful appearance.

The Different Types of Hyaluronic Acid Used in Skincare Products

Hyaluronic acid comes in a few different forms. The pure form of the ingredient, which you’ll see on an ingredient list as hyaluronic acid, is referred to as high-molecular hyaluronic acid. This is because it is made from a long chain of molecules. As a result, it’s not able to properly penetrate the skin. This isn’t a bad thing as it still works its magic on the skin’s surface. This is where moisture is usually most desperately needed. 

Low-molecular hyaluronic acid, such as sodium hyaluronate, works on a slightly deeper level. It leaves the skin looking plumped up from within while also helping skin cells to feel more intensely hydrated.

Is Hyaluronic Acid a Safe Ingredient?

Many beneficial skincare ingredients can often come with potential side effects. This is something else that has contributed to hyaluronic acid’s cult status – it’s extremely safe and isn’t linked to any side effects. 

Even better, it’s suitable for all skin types. It doesn’t irritate dry or sensitive skin and it won’t clog pores in oily, acne-prone skin. This means that it’s also perfect for combination skin types!

If you do happen to experience a skin reaction after using a product infused with hyaluronic acid, chances are that this is down to one of the other ingredients in that skincare product. Adverse effects from hyaluronic acid itself are very rare. It’s even safe to be used while a woman is pregnant or nursing. 

Skincare Products Containing Hyaluronic Acid

From oral supplements to injectable fillers, there are many different ways to treat your skin to the benefits provided by hyaluronic acid. However, the most popular method is through the use of topical products that contain the ingredient.

As mentioned earlier, there are plenty out there, but here are some of our favorites:

The Resveratrol Cabernet Plump & Correct Treatment

One of hyaluronic acid’s big draws is how it gets to work quickly once it has been applied to the skin, and the Vine Vera Resveratrol Cabernet Plump & Correct Treatment makes the most of these fast-acting effects. 

This product is loved for how it pretty much immediately softens the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The sodium hyaluronate in this formula plays a big part in this. The hydrating effects of sodium hyaluronate are enhanced by the addition of peptides, avocado oil, glycerin, and cucumber fruit extract. All of these ingredients also help to increase the skin’s moisture levels.

While this formula is great for quickly providing visible results, it helps to reduce the visibility of wrinkles in the long run too. It contains a variety of vitamins and antioxidants that repair the look of oxidative damage in the skin. This gives the complexion a smoother and younger-looking finish.

The Resveratrol Chianti Revival Serum

While the solution featured above is ideal for targeting the appearance of individual fine lines and wrinkles, Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Chianti Revival Serum ensures that your entire face can enjoy the benefits of hyaluronic acid. 

Again, this formula contains a blend sodium hyaluronate and other hydrating ingredients, including seaweed extract, peptides, and soluble collagen. This allows the serum to quickly plump up the look of the skin, giving it a radiant glow.

In addition to targeting the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles, this serum is also a superstar at fading the appearance of hyperpigmentation. It’s infused with both licorice root extract and kojic acid. Both of these gentle ingredients have natural origins. However, they’re extremely effective at balancing the complexion. They work just as well as some of the highly-recommended chemical ingredients, yet without the side effects.

The Resveratrol Eye Collection Age Defying Eye Serum

Compared to the skin on the rest of the face, the skin around the eyes is much thinner and more fragile. This makes it even more prone to dehydration and dryness. This makes hyaluronic acid an ingredient that you definitely want to be using on the skin around your eyes.

Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Eye Collection Age Defying Eye Serum is perfect for this. It hydrates the delicate eye area with a combination of sodium hyaluronate, aloe vera leaf extract, glycerin, and multiple peptides. 

It also contains several ingredients that will reduce the visible signs of skin aging. From the appearance of crow’s feet to skin that looks loose and saggy, the green tea extract, vitamin C, and resveratrol in this formula will firm and tighten your complexion in no time. In fact, hyaluronic acid functions even more efficiently when combined with vitamin C. This makes it well worth using products that combine the two.15

The Resveratrol Pinot Noir Phyto-Silk Mask

The way in which hyaluronic acid hydrates the skin can be a game-changer for those dealing with dryness. It restores the feeling of moisture in a huge way, while also leaving the skin barrier feeling thicker and more protected.

So, if you have dry skin, try to use hyaluronic acid in several stages of your skincare routine. This includes your weekly face mask. Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Pinot Noir Phyto-Silk Mask is a firm favorite because of how moisturizing it feels. With sodium hyaluronate, squalane, glycerin, and a long list of antioxidant-rich superfruit extracts, this formula can truly transform the complexion.

What makes this mask even better is that it boasts a no-rinse formula. Leave-on masks are so helpful for soothing and softening the feeling of dry patches. Rather than being removed after ten minutes, they give the skin plenty of extra time to soak up all of the mask’s goodness.

The Resveratrol Pinot Noir Dissolving Pre Mask

A face mask infused with hyaluronic acid will always provide best results on skin that has been freshly exfoliated. This way, the hyaluronic acid can easily access your skin cells without having to deal with any clumps of dead skin that might be blocking the way.

While you could go ahead and use your regular exfoliant, another option would be to treat yourself to a double dose of hyaluronic acid by applying our Resveratrol Pinot Noir Dissolving Pre Mask to your skin before using the Resveratrol Pinot Noir Phyto-Silk Mask. 

The purpose of this product is to leave the skin feeling prepped for the mask you’re about to apply. It gently exfoliates the skin while also pampering it with a long list of beneficial ingredients. From sodium hyaluronate and numerous vitamins to a multi-peptide blend and potent botanical extracts, this pre mask will leave your skin feeling deeply cleansed and rejuvenated.

The Chianti Skin Restoring Capsules

Another product that really highlights how hyaluronic acid can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles is the Chianti Skin Restoring Capsules. Rather than being packaged in a bottle, each dose of this serum comes in a small capsule. This way, you apply the perfect amount each and every time!

The sodium hyaluronate in this formula is combined with vitamin E and a blend of flower extracts. In addition to minimizing the look of skin aging, it also feels incredibly soothing on the skin. Touch your skin once you’ve applied it (only do this with clean fingers!), and you’ll immediately notice how soft and silky your skin feels.

How Often Should You Be Using Hyaluronic Acid on Your Skin?

If you would like to experience the full spectrum of benefits that hyaluronic acid can provide, then we’d recommend using it twice a day. Ideally, incorporate it into both your morning and evening routine. This will keep your skin feeling deeply hydrated pretty much 24/7!

Summary

There aren’t many skincare ingredients out there that are recommended to just about everyone, but hyaluronic acid is one of them. Whether you have dry skin, oily skin, combination skin, or sensitive skin, hyaluronic acid will give your skin the moisture that it needs to look and feel its very best.

There’s no denying that oily skin can be difficult to care for. From clogged pores to breakouts to a greasy-looking complexion, all of the extra sebum that your skin is producing can pose a number of problems.

However, that’s where a good skincare routine can save the day. Knowing which products to use, along with when to use them, can go a long way in mattifying your complexion and reducing how oily your skin feels. Read on as Vine Vera shares an effective AM and PM skincare routine for oily skin.

Why Do You Need Separate Skincare Routines for AM and PM?

Your skin has its own unique circadian rhythm. It goes through various stages over the course of 24 hours, meaning that its requirements change as the day progresses.

In the mornings, your skin cells amp themselves up for a day of defense. Between UV rays, harsh weather conditions, pollution, and more, your skin has to cope with so much environmental damage. This is why sebum production is high in the mornings, peaking at around midday, as sebum adds an extra barrier to the skin’s line of defense. 

As a result, an AM skincare routine for oily skin should be geared towards leaving your skin cells feeling protected from all that the environment throws at them. It should also contain products that help to minimize how oily the skin feels. This way, you won’t have to deal with an excessively greasy appearance throughout the day.

At night, when skin cells turn their attention toward repairing any damage that has taken place, sebum production usually declines. This is when your skin requires a large amount of moisture, making it vital for a PM skincare routine for oily skin to be as hydrating as possible. If you fail to give your skin the moisture that it needs in the evenings, it will overcompensate by producing more oil. This means that you’ll wake up feeling greasy, only to then have to deal with sebum production increasing even further as the morning progresses.

An AM Skincare Routine for Oily Skin

So, what exactly should an AM skincare routine for oily skin consist of?

Today, we’re going to keep things simple with just three to four basic steps. Once you’ve mastered these, you could then add in a few extras. However, keep in mind that you don’t want to congest your already-overloaded skin – a minimal routine is sometimes the best way forward when working with oily skin.

Cleanse With the Resveratrol Vitamin C Cleanser

People with dry or sensitive skin can often get away with using a cleanser just once a day. However, those with oily skin usually need to cleanse twice daily.

A morning cleanse will clear away any excess oil that has built up overnight, along with any sweat that could also contribute to clogged pores. However, you don’t want your AM cleanser to be too harsh or stripping. This will only encourage your skin to produce even more oil to make up for all of the moisture that your cleanser has removed. 

One of the best cleansers for kicking off an AM skincare routine for oily skin is Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Vitamin C Cleanser. This formula contains a number of beneficial ingredients, with vitamin C and resveratrol being two of them. Both are powerful antioxidants. They’ll help your skin cells to feel stronger and more fortified, which is exactly what they need to face the day. 

We’ve also included a small amount of lactic acid in this cleanser. It’s a gentle alpha-hydroxy acid, meaning that it has a mild exfoliating effect. At the same time, it functions as a humectant, making it incredibly hydrating. 

Apply the Resveratrol Vitamin C Serum

Vitamin C can work wonders on oily skin. While you may have started your routine with a vitamin C cleanser, cleansers don’t remain on the skin for very long. This makes it worth adding in an additional vitamin C product to ensure that your skin fully benefits from all that the ingredient has to offer.

The best way to do this would be with a serum. They penetrate deeper into the skin than thicker products, and they’re also lightweight enough to not cause clogged pores. 

When it comes to choosing a serum for an AM skincare routine for oily skin, our top choice would be the Resveratrol Vitamin C Serum from Vine Vera. Studies show that the ingredient is capable of reducing the look of inflammation in the skin, which is usually a precursor to breakouts. With our serum containing two forms of vitamin C, applying it in the morning will enable you to maintain a pimple-free appearance throughout the day.

Moisturize With the Chianti Morning Recovery

It’s easy to understand why people with oily skin often choose not to moisturize. After all, their skin is already producing so much extra oil, so surely an additional moisturizer isn’t needed?

Unfortunately, that assumption usually causes more harm than good. Water and oil are completely different compounds, and it’s water that your skin cells need in order to function efficiently. Your skin may start to produce more oil if it doesn’t have access to enough water, but this won’t do much to quench thirsty skin cells – it’ll just leave you feeling greasier.

So, to keep your complexion in balance, a good moisturizer is a must. It goes without saying that you need to seek out a lightweight formula so as to not clog your pores, and the Vine Vera Chianti Morning Recovery is perfect for this. 

Designed for AM use, this day cream moisturizes the skin with a blend of peptides. It’s infused with aloe vera leaf extract too, which is an incredibly hydrating botanical. Apply this face cream in the morning and your skin should look soft and supple all day long.

Finish With the Resveratrol Cabernet Replenishing Moisture Cream SPF 30

Studies have found that exposure to the sun’s UV rays increases sebum production in the skin. This is why clogged pores and breakouts tend to be more common during the warmer months of the year.

A good sunscreen will not only help you to prevent the excessively greasy finish that the skin adopts when exposed to the sun, but it will also enable you to protect your skin from cancer, along with the appearance of accelerated skin aging.

Unfortunately, many sunscreens are too heavy for oily skin. Ideally, the formula that you use should be lightweight and oil-free, just like Vine Vera’s Resveratrol Cabernet Replenishing Moisture Cream SPF 30. 

Since this product serves as both a moisturizer and a sunscreen, you could apply it as a standalone, meaning that you wouldn’t need to apply a different moisturizer beforehand. Some people with oily skin benefit from the additional moisture boost, whereas others don’t – it all depends on how oily your skin is. 

A PM Skincare Routine for Oily Skin

Once your skin has made it through yet another day, it’s time to turn your attention to giving it what it needs to get through the night. Here’s a simple 3-step PM skincare routine for oily skin:

Cleanse With the Resveratrol Cabernet Mousse Cleanser

Mousse cleansers are fantastic for oily skin. The lather that they form is extremely effective at lifting away excess oil, dirt, and other impurities. This makes our Resveratrol Cabernet Mousse Cleanser the perfect way to start off your evening skincare routine for oily skin. 

In addition to cleansing your skin, our mousse cleanser will also provide plenty of hydration. As mentioned earlier, this is what your skin really needs at night. Between the humectant properties of glycerin and the complexion-boosting blend of amino acids, your skin will look plumper and dewier each time you rinse this cleanser off.  

Apply the Resveratrol Chianti Revival Serum

In order to leave your skin cells feeling supported as they work through the night to repair daily damage, vitamins and antioxidants are a must. The best way to treat your skin to these compounds is with a serum, and our Resveratrol Chianti Revival Serum boasts a long list of them. 

There are a number of ingredients in this formula that would be beneficial for oily skin. Licorice root extract and kojic acid help to fade the appearance of dark spots and discoloration. Oily skin is particularly prone to this due to all of the breakouts that it has to deal with. Meanwhile, witch hazel extract acts as an astringent. It minimizes the look of enlarged pores, which is another common issue with oily skin types. Once the witch hazel works its magic to leave your pore openings feeling constricted, you should notice that your skin looks less oily as a result.

Even better, the multiple peptides in this formula moisturize the skin while sodium hyaluronate provides lightweight hydration. We’ve infused this serum with vitamins A, C, and E too. Together, they’ll keep your skin looking smooth, firm, and healthy.

Moisturize With the Resveratrol Vitamin C Moisturizer

We’ve already shared a couple of vitamin C products that work well in a morning skincare routine for oily skin, but here’s one that you can turn to in the evenings; the Vine Vera Resveratrol Vitamin C Moisturizer. 

Again, this formula boasts two forms of vitamin C, enabling your skin to double up on results. It’s packed with other vitamins too, along with a potent cocktail of skin-loving botanical extracts. Chamomile calms the look of inflammation and irritation, white tea provides a plethora of antioxidants, and gotu kola firms the complexion while reducing the appearance of free radical damage. 

Although this cream contains a small amount of shea butter for its essential fatty acid content, it’s a water-based formula. This means that it feels lightweight when applied. It won’t weigh your skin down or leave you looking greasier. Instead, you’ll wake up to skin that looks soft, matte, and glowy.

Perfect Your Skincare Routine With Vine Vera

It can sometimes be difficult to find good skincare products that are suitable for oily skin. If this is something that you’ve been struggling with, then you’ll love Vine Vera’s formulas. Not only will the products above help to reduce the look of shine and de-grease your appearance, but they’ll also leave your skin feeling firm, smooth, and beautifully healthy.
