Korres (New) Vanilla Guava Body Butter

Korres has a new addtion to their fab body butter collection, Vanilla Guava. If you  are looking for a highly moisturizing, more natural, really thick body lotion , then you need to check the ones from Korres out. They're loaded with shea butter , sweet almond and sunflower oils, oat peptides and in the case of Vanilla Guava- guava fruit extract.

This smells fabulous and the vanilla is light and not foody, sweet but more real vanilla with plenty of the guava which is my favorite part. It's tropical  and rich.

Korres says it "instantly beats the winter gloom"  and that's about right .

Korres Quercetin and Oak Antiaging & Antiwrinkle Eye Cream

Awhile back I tried and loved Korres Quercetin & Oak Antiageing Antiwrinkle Day Cream SPF 10 .  Korres has been expanding the popular Quercetin and Oak line and now there is an eye cream.

Meant for wrinkles, puffy eyes and circles, it addresses all the needs.

I've been using mine for about 10 days. So I can't say if it's line reducing yet . Thankfully puffiness and circles aren't an issue .   What I  like is the more natural aspect ,  the wrinkle and free radical fighters in it and that it is light but gets the job done. It's lightly moisturizing , not greasy, sinks in fast  and  feels good on the eye. There is a slight herbal smell but nothing offputting.

Quercetin is an anti-inflamatory if I recall correctly.    For allergy relief I used to use a natural vitamin blend that had Quercetan as a main ingredient. And  I had decent success in reducing allergy symptoms when using it.

In addition to the Quercetin, the eye cream also  has myrtle ( elasticity), Rhodiola rose extract( to combat puffiness)  .There are a few more you can read about on their site if you're interested .

Quercetin and Oak  eye cream is of 93 % natural content and has no mineral oil, silicones, parabens  , synthetic dyes , animal by products,  and is suitable for vegans.

Available exclusively at  at  Sephora.com   for $ 41.oo

Korres Quercetin & Oak Antiageing Antiwrinkle Day Cream SPF 10

Korres in general makes some nice products. Like many I love their bath products. I had never tried any of the skincare before. They've recently launched 2 new products under the Quercetin & Oak line-a night cream and day cream with SPF.

I am familar with quercetin as an herbal ingredient, it's made up one of the best natural allergy fighting vitamins I've used. What it does exactly, I can't say. However Korres has put a lot of research into this line, which is what got my attention .

According to the company: "The Quercetin & Oak collection is the result of a five-year study on aging at a cellular level, which found that Oak-derived Quercetin naturally boosts cell regeneration to combat all signs of aging. The outcome of the Nobel Award-winning study has undergone high-scrutiny independent testing, confirming that the new patent-pending line really delivers when compared to existing, conventional formulas."

That sounds good , right ? So I tried the day cream . Happy to see that it came in a combination skin version as well as normal. Now I don't have many lines thankfully, so I can't attest to the wrinkle fighting too much but I can say that for oily skin this is a great moisturizer/sun protection product.

The day cream comes out of the pump in fairly heavy lotion but it is not heavy at all on skin. Once you rub it in a bit, you feel as if nothing is on your skin. It leaves little moisture. Just enough for the really oily skinned. Then you get your needed SPF without greasiness and antiaging ingredients as well. I like that I can fight lines, have SPF with such a light lotion.

There is no scent either. In winter I actually will need something heavier, but for warmer weather this is great.

The day and night creams are at Sephora, Sephora.com and http://www.korres.com/ where they have a lot more info on the ingredients and even a video.
