fave products // nuori infinity bio-target super boost serum

Nuori is a new (to me) beauty brand that was very appealing for multiple reasons. This clean, non-toxic skincare is blended together in super small batches in Denmark. They use premium protective packaging and even mark each product with batch number and expiration date to guarantee maximum freshness and potency. Not to mention, I’d heard Nuori products were highly effective. Checking practically all the boxes- yes please!

The Infinity Bio-Target Super Boost Serum targets your specific skin concerns by allowing you to choose concentrated boosters that you add to the serum to make it a totally personalized solution. Boosters are focused on varying skin concerns, like Dullness, Impurities, Loss of Firmness, Uneven Skin Tone, and Wrinkles, so you can totally personalize this serum just for your specific needs! It was hard to narrow it down, but I ended up selecting Impurities, for its clarifying and pore-minimizing benefits, and Uneven Skin Tone, which helps with depigmenting and brightening. Heads up, this serum is not cheap, but a little goes a long way, and the potency of the product really ensures you get your money’s worth.

I’ve been using the serum for a while now, and can really notice a difference in the overall quality of my skin. Whenever I feel a blemish coming on, or even if one is already there, the serum works its magic quickly and efficiently thanks to niacinamide and witch hazel in the Impurities booster. I’ve also dealt with a bit of hyperpigmentation (melasma, sun spots, acne scars etc.) over the years, and have found azeloglicina and hops extract in the Uneven Skin Tone booster have really made them less noticeable after consistent use. Anti-inflammatory, reduced redness and irritation, less visible dark spots, and a brighter complexion sound like the makings of my ideal serum. If they’re all this good, maybe I need another serum with two more boosters in my life!? Not to mention, I’ve heard great things about the Nuori Infinity Bio-Renewal Night Cream as well…

fave products // paula's choice skincare boosters

 
 

Allow me to let you in on a recent skincare trend I’ve been loving. Skincare boosters! Boosters have been gaining popularity lately, and for good reason. Simply put, they’re high-powered formulas of concentrated ingredients that amplify improvements in your skin, so you get the results you want, only quicker! Paula’s Choice has created eight powerhouse boosters, each targeting a specific skincare concern, that can be used alone or combined with your favorite serum or moisturizer to give it that extra potency. I like that Paula’s Choice chooses to use only ingredients backed by research for the exact concerns each booster is designed to address. That way you know you’re getting a truly effective product! I’ve been trying out a few of the boosters recently, and can honestly say I’m impressed. Their lightweight textures make them ideal to layer with my other products, and be on my way!

Starting with a tried and true favorite, the Hyaluronic Acid Booster targets parched skin, fine lines, and lack of suppleness with ease, leaving you with soft, plump skin. If you struggle with red or brown marks, dull skin, or fine lines, the C15 Super Booster could be for you! The 15% ascorbic acid is combined with vitamin E & ferulic acid (like cult-fave SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic) to give you an all-over translucent glow. Vitamin B3 is having a bit of a moment lately, thanks to its ability to help visibly reduce the appearance of large pores and uneven skin tone. The 10% Niacinamide Booster is combined with additional antioxidants to deliver key anti-aging benefits. Winning! For those with blemish-prone skin, the 10% Azelaic Acid Booster is where it’s at. It’s been such a great alternative to the typical salicylic acid products- I really notice a difference! I’m also looking forward to trying out the 1% Retinol Booster post-pregnancy, as this multi-tasker fights advanced signs of aging as well as pesky blemishes! Next on my list is the C25 Super Booster (great for spot treating stubborn discoloration) and the Peptide Booster (with a hydrating amino acid complex). Which are you most curious to try?
