The Skin Perfecting Mist

Adding this quick & easy step to your skincare routine, you can gain a healthy glow in under one week. The light and refreshing toner can be used as a daily glow solution before your skincare routine or to prep your skin before makeup. The lotion is rich in active ingredients and helps brighten, smooth, and hydrate the skin. Over time, your skin becomes clearer, pores unclogged, and skin plump. Acid-free, this skin resurfacing lotion is ideal for all skin types.

What's Inside?

Key ingredients in this Glow Toner are:

• SUPER PEPTIDE ROYALEPIGEN P5: A peptide mimics the royalactin protein's behavior found in a beehive's royal jelly. Vegan-friendly, this active supports natural surface skin cell turnover and is encapsulated in Shea Butter for higher absorption and helps to keep skin even-looking.
• EXFOLACTIVE™: Extracted from Prickly Pear Cactus flowers, this active helps boost the skin's natural exfoliation process. When skin renewal is promoted, you will gain in luminosity and clarity.
• PORETIGHT: Extracted from Red Clover Flowers, it is a plant-derived pore-minimizer. It is helping to restore balance to the skin.
• HYDRATION POWERHOUSE SODIUM HYALURONATE: Smaller than the well-known Hyaluronic Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate penetrates deep into the skin and helps to retain moisture for a plump, smooth skin.
• NIACINAMIDE: Otherwise known as Vitamin B3, it supports the natural processes to help maintain optimal skin function.

My Review

It was my first time trying a glow toner, and I now understand why everyone is hooked on this one. The hydrating facial toner is a gentle and effective way to keep your skin glowing and clear. I used the lotion under the Magic Water Cream (review here) for over two months and Magic Cream in the past (review here) my skin is much softer. I recommend this to all skin types, especially slightly more sensitive ones.

Charlotte Tilbury Glow Toner leaves no greasy layer or excess shine. It has helped me keep my makeup longer, allowing your skincare products to penetrate more effectively.

Are you looking to renew your moisturizer or try something else? I have just tried the NEW magic water cream, and can't get enough of it!

The Hydrating Magic Water Cream

Charlotte Tilbury has recently released her latest moisturizing treatment, which works wonders! The fragrance-free, gel-cream texture melts into the skin immediately, leaving a deeply moisturized and comfortable sensation. The daily hydrating cream offers up to 100 hydration with a fresh, dewy finish. The skin is instantly replenished and appears healthier. The magic water cream is ideal for thirsty, dehydrated skin and helps to reduce the look of pores, redness, + dehydration lines.

What's Inside?

Inside the deeply moisturizing formula lies exclusive Charlotte Tilbury technology.

• Hydrating water-locking Fusion Technology™️: This moisture-restoring formula is composed of HYDAGEN™* AQUAPORIN and a BETA GLUCAN blend. Helping to strengthen the skin's natural barrier, it helps limit moisture loss.
• Niacinamide + Oil Balancing Extract: Ideal for oily and combination skin types, this dup helps reduce dilated pores.
• Biopeptide Complex: This active leaves your skin looking smooth and firm.

What Causes Dehydrated Skin?

The truth is a lot of things can cause dehydrated skin types, but a few things are most known to knock your skin out of balance.

• Using skincare that is too harsh for your skin type or needs. (purifying effects, cleansers, etc.)
• Long exposition to the sun unprotected.
• Over exfoliating your skin.
• Not drinking enough water. Yes, there is a reason doctors and health specialists constantly repeat this!

Benefits of the Magic Cream

Key benefits of the Magic Water Cream include:

• Instant Hydration
• Lightweight Texture
• Fragrance-free
• Silicone-free
• Also, improves skin texture
• Soothes redness
• Lastly, Fresh, glassy skin finish

How To Sport The Difference Between Dry Skin And Dehydrated Skin Types?

These two skin types often need clarification and can lead to frustration when getting results from your products.

1. Dry skin lacks in OIL. You can generally spot dry skin as the skin becomes flaky, rough, and even red. Check out the review of the original Charlotte TIlbury Magic Cream here.
2. Dehydrated skin lacks in WATER. Dehydrated skin is generally something we feel before we see it. Dehydrated skin feels tight and dull and, over time, becomes marked with lines.

My Review

I recently started using the magic water cream, and it is a great product! The cream has a perfect texture, bringing comfort to the skin without the greasy finish. Quick to absorb, the moisturizing cream helped smooth out my skin texture and restored moisture to deeper levels of my skin. I use this product daily under my makeup, creating a silky smooth base. I recommend this cream to people of all ages and skin types who are very sensitive and want to prevent and restore moisture levels. It is perfect for under makeup or alone for a dewy finish. The cream travel format comes in handy for on-the-go! I store mine in the fridge for a refreshing touch, perfect for those sleepy mornings.

Charlotte’s Magic Cream

A moisturizer gives an instant glow to your skin and makes it plumper while also improving skin texture.

• Frangipani Flower extract has moisturizing properties and gives the cream a subtle calming fragrance.
• Aloe vera helps in calming irritated skin and makes skin smoother.

• Delivers long-lasting hydration.
• It makes skin firmer.
• Provides instant radiance.
• Improves the tone of the skin.
• Reduces the appearance of fine lines when used consistently.

My Experience

I have a dry and sensitive type of skin with early signs of spring on my skin like fine lines and wrinkles. Despite the cream's richness, I don't have to wait for it to absorb before I can put on makeup as I do with other creams. It gets absorbed quickly and doesn’t feel greasy. When used along with the magic serum crystal, I saw that even deeper lines were greatly reduced and my skin appeared more radiant after the first application. Despite being an expensive purchase, I have succeeded with it thus far and will undoubtedly repurchase it. You don't need to use it much since it has great coverage, so one jar goes a long way.

My Experience

Doing skincare at the start and end of the day works as a therapy for me. For someone who has always struggled with acne scars and other skin problems, seeing my skin clear and radiant gives me confidence. I try different products to find the ones that work the best for me since I have sensitive skin. I always opt for hydrating products for my skin so that when I apply makeup, it does not dry out my skin.

The Magic Serum Crystal had been on my list for a long time, so when I finally bought it, I was excited to use it and see the results. I am quite pleased with the outcomes I got from this serum. Improving the texture and minimizing pores have decreased my breakouts and given my skin a uniform, smooth appearance. When used, it leaves my skin feeling hydrated for a long time without leaving a greasy residue. It layers wonderfully under my skincare and cosmetics products and is very light and quickly absorbing. Weighted glass is used for the package and has lovely rose gold accents. Additionally, it has a beautiful scent and the fact that it has been shown to be helpful for wrinkles impresses me.
