Current Skincare That Keeps Improving My Skin

I’ve been using Korean skincare for 5 years now and have absolutely loved it. I tried using medical-grade skincare that all my skin professionals recommended, but I never saw that great of results. So I went rogue. I went out on my own and began trying Korean skincare. And I never stopped loving it. But recently one of my friends introduced me to Oliveda. I was hesitant to try it because my skin has been happy and healthy, so I decided to try two products and see what I thought.

Dude. I noticed a difference in my skin in ONE application. One. Even my husband mentioned that my skin looked really good the night I put on these two serums I decided to try. I was blown away. But I was also waiting for the shoe to drop. Waiting for my skin to get stressed out or break out from the change in product. But it never happened. My skin just kept getting better. So I’ve tried a few more and I’M OBSESSED! I’ve pretty much ditched my Korean skincare routine and I’m just using these products now. And I had someone ask me to write an article about the products I use and why, and when one person asks, I respond!

Here is what I’m currently using on my skin and why:

1. Oliveda F59. This serum has hydroxytyrosol and paracress in it. Hydroxytyrosol is a polyphenol naturally derived from olives that calms the skin and combats premature aging. It’s more effective and stable than Vitamin C. Now paracress is even cooler…it is a “natural alternative to injectables” because it has a compound in it that gently relaxes micro-tensions in the facial muscles to help smooth out lines and keep them from deepening over time.

2. Oliveda F64. This serum is just like F59, but for the eyes. Obviously the skin around our eyes is quite thin and gets a ton of movement, so this serum is really helpful with the paracress extract. I love this serum because I’ve never been able to use an eye cream in the past since they have all led to breakouts. But not this stuff!

3. Oliveda F87. After I apply the F59 to my face and F64 to my eyes, I then apply the Corrective Kahai Elixir which is a super hydrating serum. This elixir also has hydroxytyrosol in it, but the Kahai oil helps stimulate collagen and smooth fine lines. This serum is a retinol alternative since it has a natural high concentration of Vitamin A to help with cell turnover and collagen production. But the best part is that it doesn’t make your skin dry like many retinols. It hydrates the skin while improving redness. This serum is THE FREAKING BEST. It’s my favorite. And I just recently dropped my only bottle and about cried. I’ve been using 1 drop a day and still getting benefits!

That’s it. That’s literally all I put on my skin at this time and my skin is THRIVING. I can’t believe it. Instead of a 12-step routine or even 5, I’m down to 3 and my skin has never looked better. I’m shooketh.

Oliveda also has a makeup line called Olive Rose. I haven’t tried many products yet, but I have tried their Skin Tint (shade 06) and it’s phenomenonal. And guess what? It has hydroxytyrosol in it, too! So you get the benefits of hydroxytyrosol in your skincare as well as your makeup. So killer.

I’ll definitely share more products as I try them, but that triple threat skincare change has been such a positive experience so I thought I would share here! I hope they serums and even makeup are the same impact for your skin!
