Let’s talk skincare! Here at Spectrum we carry Hydropeptide skincare. Hydropeptide has a large selection of products to choose from to treat a variety of skin types and concerns. Since starting at Spectrum I have had the chance to learn about and try out all of these products, and while I do think they’re all fabulous, I definitely have a few favourites that I’ve incorporated into my own skincare routine. In this little blog I’ll chat about my top 4 products and why I think they’re so great!
First up we have Hydraflora!
Hydraflora is a toner that hydrates while optimizing the skins pH and keeping micro flora balanced. I love this toner for a few different reasons. It is full of antioxidants that help brighten, protect against pollution, improve skin function (if you read my last blog you know all about barrier function and why it’s so important 😉). This toner also maintains skin clarity and regulates oil production without over drying. When choosing products to help with clarity and oil production it’s super important to find ones that won’t completely dry out your skin, as we still need to keep hydrated and moisturized! (yes, even if you’re super oily or acne prone you still need a moisturizer!!) This is why I love hydraflora, it keeps all the good bacteria balanced and adds hydration to the skin for a gorgeous glowy look!
My next favourite is Hydrostem.
This is definitely a contender for #1 fave!! Hydrostem is a serum that has so many benefits. It is designed to enhance luminosity and brightness and it provides hydration to the skin. My favourite aspect of Hydrostem is that it protects DNA in the skin from pollution/environmental stress and repairs DNA through the use of antioxidants!
Daily Drench is also one of my current favourites.
This hyaluronic acid reinforces the skins natural barrier function to prevent moisture loss. It is great for all skin types especially those with dry or dehydrated skin. I love daily drench because it visibly plums and firms the skin and over time it reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Daily drench is the perfect addition to any skincare routine to get that extra hydrated feeling!
Tip: I mix my Hydrostem and Daily Drench together when I use them in my skincare routine! These two pair perfectly together as they have complementary ingredients.
Last but certainly not least is LipLock Hydrator.
This lip balm/mask is my current winter go to. I have never had a lip balm that has been so hydrating! LipLock has avocado oil and shea butter in it to help deeply hydrate and lock in moisture. It also provides antioxidant protection from environmental stress which is just what we need here in NL! I use LipLock daily but I find the best way to use it is overnight. It stays on throughout the night and you wake up with soft, plump, and hydrated lips!
