Nancy’s Favorite Reviva Labs Skin Care Products

Having worked in the beauty industry for the better part of my career, I’ve been fortunate to have had a lot of favorite skin care products throughout the years. Some I used for a couple of months and others just for a couple of nights. But the products I used the longest and returned to time and again all had one thing in common – powerful, natural ingredients that provided my skin with results I was looking for.

So imagine my sheer joy when I began working for Reviva Labs two years ago and started using products formulated with ingredients that I knew and trusted to take care of my skin. I’ve really seen a difference in my skin’s tone and texture since I began using my favorite Reviva Labs products everyday.So here’s the routine that’s made the difference:

rose, facial mist, hibiscus, hyaluronic acid, aloe, hydrating

Every day and night, I use Glycolic Cleanser for gentle cleansing and exfoliation. The glycolic acid (sourced from sugar cane) helps prep my skin for applying Dual Source Vitamin C Serum next on my skin. The glycolic acid and the two sources of Vitamin C work synergistically to brighten and smooth my skin – a big plus since past sun damage has been making its depressing appearance in the last couple of years.

And, since I live in a dry, sunny climate, I like to use Hyaluronic Acid Serum on top of my Dual Source C Serum. I find that it helps maintain and boost hydration in my skin.It’s super easy to apply two serums. The Dual Source Vitamin C Serum dries down really quickly so applying the Hyaluronic Acid Serum right on top is never a problem. And, if I’m pressed for time, I apply the Dual Source Vitamin C Serum in the morning and the Hyaluronic Acid Serum at night. Either way, my skin gets what it needs. When the climate really heats up, I spritz Rose Hibiscus Facial Mist after applying my skincare to lock in moisture with another dose of hyaluronic acid and aloe. In the summer, I keep it in my refrigerator to help cool me down too!

To help with the appearance of those pesky fine lines and, dare I say it, wrinkles, I use Multi-Peptide Complex.It’s chock filled with advanced peptides like Matrixyl™, Progeline™, Adipofill’in™ and Syn-ake™, which really help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by supporting the collagen in my skin. At night, I apply one of my absolute all-time favorite products, 10% Glycolic Acid Crème! It helps improve the overall texture of my skin and diminish my skin’s discoloration while I’m sleeping.

Based on the results I’ve seen, I know I’ll be using these Reviva Labs favorites for a long, long time.

UPDATE Oct 2021

Now that the summer is officially over and we transition to cooler days, I figured it was time to transition or change my skincare routine as well. While I still use many of my original Favorites, I’m adding the following products to my daily rotation.

Did you notice the overriding trend in the products I’ve chosen? That’s right – brightening and renewal. After a long summer of trying to prevent sun damage by wearing SPF 30 everyday and a big hat, my fair skin still managed to get a little color. That’s why I need to add some of our terrific brightening products to my daily regime. I want to diminish the dark spots and uneven skin tone that seemed to develop overnight once summer ended.

Every morning, I apply 3 drops of Dark Spot Brightening Serum after cleansing my face. I LOVE this product and have already seen the results. Dark Spot Brightening Serum now has 8 different brightening ingredients including Niacinamide (check out our site for more info on all these incredible ingredients).

Next, I apply our new Multi-Factor Brightening Creme. This new product arrived just in time! Not only is it loaded with ingredients to improve overall radiance, it is also great for improving the appearance of some old acne scarring with 10% azelaic acid.

At night, I switch it up a bit and apply Calming Renewal Serum before my Multipeptide Complex. I like the way it calms my skin with nourishing essential fatty acids like those found in argan, jojoba and hemp oil as well as botanicals like turmeric and ashwagandha. My skin glows after using it.

Lastly, because the cooler weather can make my skin feel drier all over, I make sure to apply the Elastin Collagen Body Firming Lotion right after my shower, while my skin is still damp so it can really soak in fast.

So as the season changes, take stock of what may have changed with your skin too. Your skin will thank you for it!
