Beauty Box 5

Nastassja Skin & Wellness grew from a family tradition of getting the most from the bountiful plants and herbs that grew along the coast line where the founder’s parents were raised. Today, Nastassja is a skin and wellness line designed for the everyday woman who desires to look younger, feel healthier and be the best she can be.

"We know that when we eat right, exercise, get our rest and stay hydrated our bodies are better able to fight off infection, colds and other ailments. So doesn’t it make sense that the same principles remain true when it comes to our skin? Nastassja Skin and Wellness care products will revolutionize how you think about skin care – every time you wash your face it will be like bathing in antioxidants."

I’ve recently had the pleasure of experiencing the entirety of this amazing line and I’m so excited to be sharing it with you in our September Beauty Box 5!!

Here’s little run-down of the line and my experience thus far. Keep in mind, it typically takes about 6 weeks to see the results of a new skincare regimen…so stay posted and I’ll keep you updated on how it’s working. :) What I can tell you so far is this:

After a week of using the line, I’m extremely impressed. When I wake up after using the products at night, I look refreshed and well-rested. My skin also feels hydrated and looks even throughout the day. I LOVE the Face Lift and am completely amazed at how quickly it works. In general, when I’ve used lines as natural as Nastassja it takes an extremely long time to see any results. Not the case here! I’m also completely enamored with the Cleansing Oil! It instantly takes off any makeup I throw its way and my skin feels clean, soft and supple the minute I’m done washing!

Some little tidbits:

#1: The entire line smells amazing! Every product smells fresh and organic, not artificial or fruity. Smell is very important to me, and I’m sure to you too…there’s nothing worse than having to smell your face cream all day when it stinks!

#2: Nastassja Skin is a one-size-fits-all wellness line. I LOVE THIS! I personally think the whole oil-free movement is silly. Oily skin is oily because it’s starving for moisture and to compensate, it shoves oil to the surface of the skin to rectify the issue. All of the Nastassja products are great for ANY skin type; oily skin will never feel like it’s suffocating under some heavy cream and dry skin will always get enough moisture.

#3: The products contain VitaVeggie®, an exclusive blend of vegetable powders and extracts. VitaVeggie® combines the nutrition benefits of broccoli, broccoli sprouts, tomatoes, spinach, kale, carrots, brussels sprouts and onion. This powerhouse blend is high in antioxidants that support your immune system, slow and may even reverse some aging processes, and promote cardiovascular health.

#4: The entirety of the line is 100% Paraben free with no Methyl-, Propyl-, Ethyl- or Butyl- parabens. It’s also dermatologist and allergy tested and non-comedogenic so you’ll never have to worry about it clogging your pores!

Nastassja products are also free from:

• Harsh Synthetic Chemicals
• Sulfates (Sodium Lauryl/Laureth Sulfate)
• Petrochemicals (petrolatum, mineral oil)
• Artificial Colors or Fragrances
• Animal Testing

So here’s my regimen:

AM:

Toner ($15): Revitalizes skin without drying or stripping, reduces pore size and balances skin pH, nourishes and provides firming benefits.

Anti-Aging Serum ($30): Reduces the appearance of lines and wrinkles, stimulates collagen creation, nourishes the skin and enhances skin suppleness.

AM/PM Moisture Treatment Cream ($30): Erases the look of deep wrinkles, fades age spots, nourishes, hydrates, stimulates skin renewal and restores skin’s youthful texture.

Age Defy Eye Cream ($30): A great all-in-one eye cream, Age Defy reduces the appearance of wrinkles, puffiness and dark circles, nourishes and moisturizes.

Eye Lash Enhancer ($30): Boosts lash lushness and natural growth, stimulates keratin genes to lengthen lashes, activates the hair growth follicle, moisturizes and conditions the delicate eye area and imparts a youthful “plumpness” to the skin around the eye.

PM:

Blooming Facial Cleansing Oil ($15): Also a wonderful makeup remover, this phenomenal cleanser won’t clog pores or leave a oily residue. It nourishes, balances, normalizes and visibly decreases inflammation and clears blemishes.

Toner

Brightening/Lightening Treatment ($30): Brightens skin, lightens and prevents dark spots caused by hyperpigmentation, balances and normalizes skin tone, nourishes and moisturizes.

AM/PM Treatment Cream

Pre-mixed Face Lift ($45): This lovely little face lift in a bottle diminishes fine lines and wrinkles within minutes, provides long-lasting results, nourishes the skin, encourages moisture retention and balances and hydrates the skin.

Enzyme Facial Peel ($25): Naturally exfoliates so as to not harm the skin’s surface, nourishes, reduces moisture loss and helps reduce the appearance of skin damage.

If you’d like some more info on the line, you can visit the Nastassja Skin website and they always have great little bits of info on their Facebook.

They also have a line of supplements and a great meal replacement that I’ll post some more on next week.

Peace, Love & Samples,
