Verilux ClearWave Soothing Skin System Review

Verilux is best known as the “Healthy Lighting Company” due to their involvement in  designing and manufacturing environmentally friendly lighting, light therapy lamps and UVC light cleaning and sanitizing solutions. Verilux utilizes full spectrum light to help improve people’s vision, well-being and environments. They are the leader in wellness lighting technology and they strive to improve people’s overall quality of life.

Verilux creates beneficial and environmentally sustainable products in three categories: Vision, Therapy, and Sanitizing. I am always on the look out for new and innovative products that help to achieve clearer, younger looking skin. For this reason, I chose to review the ClearWave Soothing Skin System.

Verilux-ClearWave The ClearWave Soothing Skin System is designed to diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, clear skin blemishes, and smooth skin texture. The ClearWave Smoothing System cares for your skin gently and naturally  without the use of harsh chemicals or sun sensitizing prescriptions acne medication.

skin-therapy-lightI have been using my Verilux ClearWave Soothing Skin System for one month now and the only thing I can say, is I wish I would have found this sooner! I have had an acne scar for several months. I have tried both prescription acne creams and over the counter topical medication and nothing has helped. I was certain I would live with that ugly scar forever. That is, until I tried the Clear Wave System. I was skeptical at first because I had used the ClearWave for several days without any noticeable change. After a weeks time, I woke up one morning and to my surprise, my acne blemish was gone!  veriluxI was concerned about the possibility of burning, redness and irritation. I was happy to find the ClearWave system is gentle and painless. It simply feels like a piece of plastic pressed against your skin. There is no burning, I did not even experience a warming sensation like I initially thought. I have sensitive skin and found this to be extremely effective, so I imagine this would be great for all other skin types.

The Clear Wave System is also great for oily skin. I suffer from oily skin, especially in my t-zone area. Over the course of one month, I have noticed less oil and visibly smaller pores. I have been using this every day and I have not had a breakout once. My skin looks and feels smoother and clearer. This system is absolutely amazing- a must have for every woman! This system clears up existing acne quicker than any acne cream or medication and prevents new acne from forming.

At first glace, the price tag may seem out of reach. But when you consider the costs to see a dermatologist, the price paid for creams, ointments, and treatments, you will find that you actually save. Unlike many acne treatments, this light therapy treatment is very gentle with absolutely no side effects. Each application only takes three minutes and the Clear Wave automatically shuts off at the end of each session. I definitely recommend this product to anyone suffering from acne and to those who are looking for a inexpensive, effective way to permanently reduce wrinkles and other signs of aging.

Lush Enzymion Moisturizer Review

Enzymion ReviewEnzymion is light moisturizer made especially for those with oily skin. A few of the main ingredients include fresh fruits enzymes, aloe vera gel, cocoa butter, and avocado oil. Combined, these ingredients help oily skin look matte.All of the ingredients are Vegan.

I am always on the market for a quality moisturizer. Not only for the purpose of moisturizing but also to help combat the signs of aging. I was skeptical about this product because I have combination skin. My t-zones (forehead, nose, chin) are almost always oily (especially during the summer months), while my cheeks are usually dry and flaky.

I received my Enzymion Moisturizer and immediately noticed the unique packaging. Lush uses post-consumer recycled, recyclable and biodegradable materials whenever possible. In fact, 70% of their products are sold "naked" or with no packaging at all. I also found it interesting that all Lush products are made by hand. All of their products contain a sticker with a picture of the person who made that particular item. What a unique and creative idea!

Enzymion has an uplifting and fruity scent. I will admit, the scent was a bit stronger than I prefer, but it faded within 10 minutes of applying. When my moisturizer arrived, I was a bit surprised at how small the container was. But after just one application, I understood why. I only needed a tiny pea-size amount of moisturizer to cover my entire face. I'm sure this moisturizer will last me for close to a 6 months, if not longer. Right away, I noticed how light Enzymion felt on my skin. My skin felt so fresh and rejuvenated!

I have been applying Enzymion every morning since I received it a week ago. Normally, new products irritate my skin and cause breakouts. With Enzymion, my skin is clearer then it has been in a long time. Enzymion works great on my combination skin. My face no longer looks like I have smeared fried chicken all over it. I am completely shine free! In addition to that, the dry areas on my face are finally hydrated and smooth.

Enzymion does an excellent job of moisturizing and making oily skin look matte! The only downfall to this product is that it is a little pricey, but it works miracles and lasts forever, so it is completely worth every cent! I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking to get rid of their oily skin!
