Beauty Nook Blog -- Previous Post 3/13


Each week The Beauty Nook will be featuring a much loved product, discuss the pros and cons, and explain how it is used. Throughout the month there will be specials on service/product combinations!

Our first review is featuring my favorite Mario Badescu product ever, or so far.... : )

Vitamin C Serum: ($45)

Here's the official description: Antioxidant Vitamin C protects skin from free radicals and is essential in collagen production. This Vitamin C Serum contains 7.5% Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) to reduce discoloration and brighten skin. Formulated with Hyaluronic Acid to retain skin's natural moisture and Collagen to enhance skin's firmness and elasticity.

My official review: This is definitely a serum consistency, it glides onto the skin slightly like an oil, but then absorbs completely leaving no greasy residue or stickiness. This is a priority for my skincare standards, there is nothing worse than feeling sticky or oily when you're on your way to bed. The best part about this serum is how you look when you get up in the morning! Glowing and healthy skin! Using this every other night in conjunction with a retinol has been revolutionary.

It is the most expensive item from the Mario Badescu line, but $45 is hardly close to most lines whose anti-aging serums range from $60-$235! I have only used mine for about 6 weeks, but it is looking like it will last close to 6 months. Well worth the investment!

Come in and try Mario Badescu's Vitamin C Serum and receive a 10% discount when you take it home!
