Awesome Sauce Anti-Oxidant Serum
We all know better...don't smoke, don't drink, eat your veggies, stay out of the sun, get plenty of sleep, drink lots of water- yadda, yadda, yadda
For women who live in the real world, where 8 hours of sleep is a luxury, we've made Awesome Sauce.
Awesome Sauce is a combination of some fairly powerful ingredients that leaves your skin soft, dewy, and more even-toned. It has a TON of anti-oxidants that help protect your skin from environmental damage to keep you looking young and flawless. For the acne-prone girls there are some anti-bacterial, and skin calming ingredients too. And, did we mention it's just plain Awesome??
Best for: Anti-aging, reactive skin. Non-drying, great for dry to "normal" skin types. For oily, or very acne prone skin checkout Super Serum.
Here's a look at the actives:
Vitamin C- 3% magnesium ascorbyl phosphate so it doesn't sting or burn, but it's still incredibly effective. Everyone needs a little Vitamin C.
Most vitamin C serums use ascorbic acid, and have a pH of about 3.5. Because of its acidic nature ascorbic acid isn't compatible with ingredients like peptides, and retinols.
At Silk Naturals we use 3% magnesium ascorbyl phosphate (MAP) instead of ascorbic acid because it produces similar results, but with a much less acidic pH. It's less likely to cause irritation, and combines beautifully with so many other ingredients like peptides, niacinamide, and retinols.
Renovage- 3% is an incredibly powerful anti-aging ingredient. It lengthens the strands of DNA within cells to increase their lifespan by 1/3. What you see on the surface is fewer lines, less redness, reduced pore size, and improved hydration.
Venuceane- derived from deep-sea algae it's the Chuck Norris of anti-oxidants. Strong, powerful, and nearly inexhaustible it's what you need if you spend any amount of time in the sun (it's not sunblock at all- don't use it as that)
Fermented Wasabi Extract- By fermenting it the wasabi turns mild, and becomes anti-inflammatory. It's also anti-bacterial, and great for acne-prone skin.
The fine print:
Avoid this if you're pregnant. Mama's Helper is ideal if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.
