Wanderlust Getaway: Wellington Street Art Scene

I'm back with another skincare product review, and this time around, I'm reviewing a brand that I've never heard of before. Exuviance is a brand under NeoAsia that has been the key player in AHA/PHA skincare technology, and has been dedicated to the sales, marketing and distribution of skin care, medical aesthetic equipment and medical device products to the medical community and consumers.

I decided to agree to their review request because I am intrigued by the simple fact that their Tiple Microdermabrasion Face Polish is free of plastic polyethylene beads and their Bionic Oxygen Facial Masque sounds interesting!

So without further ado, here's my verdict:

 Triple Microdermabrasion Face Polish

The latest anti-aging breakthrough that incorporates a triple action approach to skin renewal in a single, yet powerful treatment with a unique blend of physical, chemical and enzyme rejuvenators. With just one application, this intensive exfoliating treatment delivers instant skin resurfacing.

With pure professional grade crystals, Papaya Enzyme and Glycolic Acid, this face polish helps to dissolve impurities that contribute to congested pores, loosen dead skin cells/ dull and dry patches, polishing skin to a gorgeous silky softness and glow. 

With consistent exfoliation, once or twice a week, your skin will be clearer, brighter with reduced appearance of pores and dark spots.

To Use:

Once or twice a week, apply a thin even layer to a clean wet face, lightly massaging in a circular motion for 30 seconds, avoiding eye area. Do not scrub. Leave on for up to 2 minutes (up to 1 minute for sensitive skin). Thoroughly rinse with warm water and gently pat dry. Follow with an Exuviance serum and moisturizer.

Texture: Contains tiny beads with a slightly creamy texture that turns milky when applied onto wet skin

Can you spot the crystal beads?

Smell: Fruity scent

Product Rating: 7.5 /10

First off, I really like that it doesn't contain any plastic beads, and based on the ingredient list, alumina is what the professional grade crystals are made of. On the general whole, the ingredients used are on the safe side with a caution to people with sensitive skin. It does have a slight stinging sensation upon application.

Personally, I did notice that it helps to even out my skin tone after my time at Tioman... because I had a suntan mark of my scuba mask and after 2 weeks of usage, I noted that the tan lines are gone. I didn't really note much difference or improvement to the size of my pores or the reduction of tiny blemishes on my face.

Bionic Oxygen Facial Masque 

This mask contains a triple oxygenating blend of specialized ingredients that carry and deliver oxygen into the skin, which helps to support essential cellular energy and optimize collagen in our skin. 

Upon application, the product forms a lightly foaming gel that releases oxygen, delivering a unique sensory experience as the oxygenating process induces a light tingle and forms a creamy foam on the surface of the skin. After 5-10 minutes the foam begins to break down and the face can be gently rinsed and patted dry. The formula contains our patented anti-aging bionic acid/PHA blend along with a conditioning polymer that adds a soft conditioned touch to the skin and a polysaccharide known for its hydrating and film forming properties, making it ideal for use post-peel or post-polish, such as the Exuviance Triple Microdermabrasion Face Polish. 

A single use of the Bionic Oxygen Facial envelops the skin in a delightful oxygenating experience, revealing skin that looks and feels revitalized, refreshed, transformed. Bionic Oxygen Facial is an ideal step following an Exuviance Peel or whenever skin needs a restorative boost of radiance. 

To Use:

Massage a generous, even layer on clean, damp skin. Wait five minutes, allowing a thick oxygenating froth to form and then disappear. Rinse skin and apply an Exuviance treatment or moisturizer. Use at least 3-4 times a week; ideal following use of an Exuviance Triple Microdermabrasion Face Polish. Daily use of a sunscreen is recommended as part of a healthy skin care regimen.

Texture: Gel-like that foams up and disappears after awhile

Smell: Hmm... I have difficulty identifying the smell of this. It has a common skincare scent that leans towards the floral side.

Benefits:

• Detoxifies and eliminates aging dullness
• Stimulates vital cell energy
• Provides essential support for optimal collagen levels
• PHA/Bionic Blend adds extra youth-promoting benefits to restore radiance and suppleness
• A non-irritating and a non-sensitizing formulation that is both Paraben-Free and Fragrance-Free.

Product Rating: 7.5/10

This product is quite fun to use, the bubbles create a tickling sensation on the skin as it foams and pops. I have to agree that it does leave my skin feeling more hydrated after use and I like that about this product. However, I didn't notice any anti-aging difference to how my skin looked after using, in regards to fine lines... The only thing I noticed after use with the face polish was that my skin got even out and fairer... so that's good I guess!
