Being an oily sensitive skinned gal finding a soothing cure to my acne prone skin has been a battle for years. Then along came Ingrid (MissGlamorazzi) and she certainly seems to battle the same issues that I have long faced. She mentioned the Midnight Recovery Concentrate in one of her monthly favorites videos, then I remembered that way back when… she did an experiment for a week and loved the results. I jumped on to the bandwagon and shelled out $46 and boy oh boy am I pleased.
I saw results after the first night it self! Not only has the soothing lavender essential oil calmed down breakouts, but it has also kept them at bay. After a good 2 months of consistent use the texture of my skin is much more supple and (as Amelia of Liana-Beauty.com says) “marshmallow-y” which could be attributed to the Squalene which is a botanical lipid that is similar in molecular structure to natural skin lipids. I also noticed that my skin is much less oily and more dewy (which I feel is the mission of every oily skinned girl). Another ingredient the Midnight Recovery Concentrate includes is evening primrose oil, which is meant to boost radiance but it goes way beyond just that. This oil is rich in Omega-6 fatty acids therefore ideal to treat sensitive skin issues like eczema and psoriasis.
I like to apply this light mixture of oils by rubbing three drops between both hands and gently patting it into my skin, after I feel like it’s evenly distributed, I like to put on a YouTube video and gently rub in the oil for the duration of the reel. This really gets the blood flowing and brings oxygen to the cells in your face, it also relaxes your facial muscles so that half the battle against wrinkles is won.
This is my favorite part of my nightly facial routine, the lavender scent and the massage is the IDEAL pre beauty sleep supplement. Be sure to add the Midnight Recovery Concentrate to your routine, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed =)
