Soothing and boosting hydration for my parched skin with the Antipodes Flora Probiotic Skin-Rescue Hyaluronic Mask

I’ve been having a very busy few weeks, as I’m in the midst of moving and setting up a small production facility for my little business, and I’d be lying if my skin care routine is not suffering from neglect.

But realising this, I had planned ahead – us skincare enthusiasts never give up on our skin care, we just modify our routines to suit our lifestyle! 😀

Realising that I’d be under stress, have less time to myself, and be exposed to the environment more than before, I upped my hydration for the day and for the night. When my body undergoes stress, my skin tends to dry out so I knew I had to maintain my hydration and moisture so it remains balanced. I’d treat any other concerns later!

What I’ve been doing more of is masking and that’s where the Antipodes Flora Probiotic Skin-Rescue Hyaluronic Mask comes in handy. What a mouthful it is! So I’ll call it the Antipodes Flora Probiotic mask.

Your skincare routine begins when you cleanse: 8 Cleansers I love that I buy over and over and why a good cleanser is important

In the past, when I first started having some interest in skincare, I came across a quote by someone that said “Spend on what you leave on and save on what you wash off” It was something of that ilk.

Essentially, the idea was that when we were balancing our budget for skincare, we should spend more on products like serums and creams, to get the best possible quality since we were leaving it on our skin; and we could save on a product like cleansers, because we’d just be washing them off.

I thought it made sense, so it was something I practised for a while. I’d buy cleansers from the pharmacy, and I’d not consider spending too much money on them. Something that was foamy and cleaned my skin was sufficient, never mind what special ingredients might be in it, because I was going to wash it off anyway.

Much later, I realised that I was wrong about this.

Natural, Vegan and Pure Molten Gold – The Antipodes Glow Ritual Vitamin C Serum ticks all the right boxes!

Since being introduced to Antipodes Skincare back in 2012, I’d watched the brand grow, with a lot of interest. It’s a brand of skincare that I particularly enjoy using, and one of very few organic and natural skincare brands that I have no hesitation telling people about, simply because it does the job, and then some!

They’ve introduced quite a few new products in recent times, and one that piqued by interest was the Antipodes Glow Ritual Vitamin C Serum. We all know how I am about a Vitamin C serum! I’m mad for them!

What interested me more than another new Vitamin C serum, was that the Antipodes Glow Ritual Vitamin C Serum is made from a natural source of Vitamin C – kakadu plum.

I was a little sceptical if it’s better than chemically derived Vitamin C, I must admit, but in my books, anything from one of my favourite brands is worth a try! 🙂

Bacteria isn’t all bad, and especially not when it’s in the Antipodes Culture Probiotic Night Recovery Water Cream

Most of you know by now what a big fan I am of Antipodes skincare. Barring one or two items in the product range, I usually love everything carried by the brand, and I look forward to new releases from them.

When I came across the new Antipodes Culture Probiotic Night Recovery Water Cream, I was very intrigued.

Primarily, I was intrigued at the use of probiotics in the formula. I’d been reading about probiotics in skincare for a while, but there aren’t many brands I know, that use it.

Ultimately though, I had my reservations about the Antipodes Culture Probiotic night cream, and it had nothing to do with the probiotics 🙂
