Algenist is a product line of advanced anti-aging skincare products made with a breakthrough ingredient, alguronic acid, which was unexpectedly discovered by scientists while they were researching renewable energy solutions. What's really cool about it is when it was tested for its potential anti-aging skin benefits, alguronic acid demonstrated the ability to significantly increase cell regeneration and renewal as well as elastin synthesis. Not to mention, when applied to skin tissue models, alguronic acid demonstrated a significant inhibition of melanin production and significant protection from UV cell damage and DNA damage.
Available in the line at both Sephora and The Shopping Channel is:
Concentrated Serum - 30ml - $112 - a smooth, advanced anti-aging serum formulated with a high concentration of the revolutionary ingredient, alguronic acid, to minimize the appearance of deep wrinkles, while helping to improve skin firmness and boost radiance.
Anti-Aging Moisturizer - 60ml - $106 - a luxurious nourishing cream formulated with alguronic acid and anti-aging skin bioactives including vitamin C and apple cell extract to help restore moisture, while minimizing the appearance of lines and wrinkles on your skin. (US can also get their hands on one with an SPF 20 which is not yet available in Canada)
Complete Eye Renewal Balm - 15ml - $76 - a rich, yet lightweight moisturizing and soothing balm for the eye area, which is formulated with alguronic acid and skin bioactives including cucumber extract and caffeine to help decrease the appearance of puffiness and dark circles, while visibly minimizing wrinkles around the eyes.
Fear of commitment? Check out the Algenist Discovery Kit at The Shopping Channel: you get 15ml of the Serum and Moisturizer and 7ml of the Eye Balm for $55 - a great way to try the line and make sure you like it!
It's ingredient may come from algae but it's neither green nor slimy nor does it smell fishy - the products actually feel quite luxurious and smell clean and fresh! I've been trying out the eye balm for several weeks now and it's been doing wonders for my morning puffiness!This is the kind of line that makes great sense for The Shopping Channel to carry because it give you the chance to catch one of the Algenist shows where a company expert will give you all the goods on the line in a much better/more understandable way then my limited product/science knowledge ever could - I am told that there is plans to have Algenist in the studio near the end of September so keep your eye on the schedule and be sure to catch the show.
Algenist is available at The Shopping Channel at www.theshoppingchannel.com,at Sephora and www.sephora.com as well as the Algenist website www.algenist.com
We're so convinced that you want to rub some algae into your own face that we want you to have a chance to win all three products - read on if we're right!

I would love try the eye cream, as I am certain this will be the first area to show signs of aging for me. I have hereditary dark circles and have yet to find a product that helps minimize this!
I am hoping Algenist will help improve skin firmness as it has lost its elasticity big time :( and minimize all the wrinkles and fine lines :(

ReplyDeleteThese products sounded so incredible that I had to do some research on them on my own. I really haven't heard much about this skincare line and I don't know why because I'm generally very up to date on all the latest anti aging products on the market or soon to be released. These products sound almost too good to be true which is fine by me if they really work. I don't have any problem rubbing algae on my face. I'd rub dog poop on my face daily if it would produce an age reversal of 25 years. Isn't it funny how some of the best products are discovered accidentally when the true intent of the research had nothing to do with the final outcome. These anti aging products sound like the most promising of any line that I've seen in a very long time. This is the kind of giveaway that really blows my mind because if the products work, then you're winning the prize of youthfulness which is invaluable.
Thank you for giving your fans the opportunity to possibly win this skincare set and for finding such wonderful products for your giveaways I appreciate the hard work it must take in order to get these products for us.
Good Luck To All!!!!!

Oh shoot, I got so excited about these products that I forgot to answer your mandatory question, which is what skincare issue are you hoping Algenist will help you with?
ReplyDeleteThe ideal skincare products for me would erase fine lines around the eyes, lips and forehead. It would also tighten my skin which has begun to lose it's elasticity, causing noticeable nasal folds, lose neck and chin skin, and a general loss of elasticity all over the face. The contour of my face is becoming less defined. I don't have a huge issue with large pores but I certainly wouldn't mind if they were tighter and smaller. And the skin under my eyes seems to be thinning out causing dark circles, puffiness. And again, the wrinkles, or rather fine lines, need to disappear. All the problems I'm experiencing with my skin are the same issues these skincare products directly address which is why I'm so excited about these products.
