Wrinkles. Can’t live with them, would love to live without them.

It’s true that aging is a part of life’s beautiful process, but that doesn’t necessarily mean we necessarily jump for joy every time a new dark spot or wrinkle pops up across our forehead. In fact, we’re far more likely to begrudgingly scour the internet for latest tips and tricks on how to help turn back the hands (unfortunately, that discovery hasn’t been made yet).

The good news is that prevention and science are on your side…and so are we! Over the years, people have stepped up their lifestyle and skincare game when comes to caring for and investing in their skin. So, if you are indeed that person currently searching for the latest tips and tricks for better-looking skin, keep on reading for Aloette’s 4 Ways to Create an Age-Defying Skincare Routine:

Drink Up!

Water. Aqua. H2O. No matter how you say it, adequate water consumption is one of the most important ways to support your complexion from the inside out. Basic biology (and our mothers) tell us that water makes up a HUGE percentage of our body—so it only makes sense that it’s largest organ requires a tall glass of hydration to keep it looking it’s best. Not to mention, the older you get the harder it can be for your skin to retain moisture. So, fill up your cup and help drink your way to a total body refresh with nature’s simplest “ingredient”.

Apply Sunscreen

We get it—its winter, its cold, and our skin is practically begging to soak up any ounce of colour it can get. But, on your quest for sun-kissed skin, don’t forget that sunscreen plays a vital role in both the long term and short-term appearance of your complexion. While a stroll in the sunshine—especially in the cooler months—may seem harmless enough, it is important to take care and arm your skin with broad spectrum protection to help prevent dark spots, fine lines and future sun damage. Prevention is truly the key to age-defying skincare and slathering on sunscreen daily is a helpful way to help protect your skin (yes, even indoors).

Invest in Anti-Aging Skincare

This is our Aloette specialty. One of the many beauties of skincare is that it completely customizable to your wants and needs. If you’re looking for a skincare routine that can help prevent or improve the look of an aging complexion (hence, why you probably clicked on this article), keep an eye out for skincare products that include peptides and hydrating key ingredients—like Hyaluronic Acid. Why the focus on these skincare ingredients? Because both of these ingredients work below the surface to help improve the skin’s moisture barrier and promote a firmer-looking complexion—making them a must-have in an age-defying skincare routine!

Try: The Aloette Ageless Science System. Made with a rejuvenating peptide, this two-step skincare system features an Ionic Energy Balance Mist and Active Energy Serum to help boost absorption, quench skin with hydration and help reduce the appearance of deep wrinkles.

Moisturize

Are you starting to notice a trend here? Like we said, hydration is non-negotiable for anyone after a soft and smoother-looking complexion (I’m looking at you oily skin types). So, while you hydrate from the inside, make sure to also hydrate on the outside using a nourishing moisturizer. Start by applying a lightweight moisturizer during the day, then switch to a rich, preventative face cream at night. This will help ensure that your skin stays quenched underneath your makeup and nourished as you sleep.

Why You Need Vitamin C Serum in Your Daily Skincare Routine

Posted on by Kaitlyn Cook
Share this:

Skincare trends may come and go, but Vitamin C is forever! Get to know the vitamin that everyone is talking about and discover Aloette’s skincare secret to more even, brighter and radiant-looking skin. You’re sure to C the Light!

What is Vitamin C?

Vitamin C is a skincare powerhouse, and there is a good reason this ingredient has taken the skincare world by storm. Think of it like a daily dose of OJ for your complexion. When feeling under the weather or flu season is looming around the corner, people tend to up their daily intake of Vitamin C to help keep health intact. Topically, Vitamin C works in a similar fashion for the skin. This ingredient is perfect for a year-round skincare routine—helping to protect the skin from environmental stressors in the summer and helping restore brightness to the skin in the winter. Vitamin C is available in many forms, including many serum, moisturizer, skincare booster and more.

What Are the Benefits?

Brightens the look of the Complexion | Featuring powerful antioxidant properties, Vitamin C can help brighten the look of skin over time. By helping to reduce the appearance of dark spots, fine lines and uneven texture, this must-have ingredient works to help restore a radiant-looking complexion with each use.

Helps Protect the Skin from Environmental Stressors | The antioxidants in Vitamin C also help protect the skin from environmental stressors. Why is that important you ask? Well, environmental stressors can include anything from UV rays to pollution in the air. Vitamin C is a great preventative ingredient that has the potential to help protect against age-accelerating environmental stressors.

Helps Improve the Signs of Aging | Last but not least, Vitamin C contains age-defying properties. It helps improve the look of fine lines and hyperpigmentation, while helping to boost the skin’s natural barrier function. Overall, this helps promote the appearance of a more even skin tone and a softer, smoother-looking complexion.

So, What’s the Deal with C the Light?

Aloette’s C The Light is a unique Vitamin C Serum that is formulated with a special delivery system that helps boost your skincare routine. Infused with 5 different derivatives of Vitamin C—including orange peel, lemon peel, mandarin orange, citric acid and essential oils—this everyday serum help improve the look of skin tone while helping to brighten and smooth the look of skin. To work C the Light Vitamin C Serum into your daily skincare routine, dispense a pea-sized amount into your hands after your face has been cleansed and toned. Glide the serum across the face and neck. Allow product to dry, then apply your favorite serum and moisturizer to lock in ingredients and boost hydration.

Here at Aloette, we love getting to hear feedback on what products you’re loving and buying. It’s important to know that the team behind the products you shop also love them just as much as you do. We decided it was time to share some of our very favorites:

Stay Pure Acne Treatment Lotion

 

“My FAVORITE product by far is the Stay Pure Acne Treatment Lotion! This acne treatment works better than anything I have ever tried on pesky zits and blemishes, and it is also non-drying thanks to the Aloe Vera! Zits disappear overnight without any flaking or redness. I keep one in my makeup bag at all times!”

Stick Shift

“This is my go-to facial exfoliator that I use several times a week. I love how the formula lathers on wet skin. There are small physical exfoliators (diatomaceous earth) that polish effectively and never feel abrasive or irritating. My skin texture is noticeably smoother after every use. It’s also great for travel or for the gym!”

Ageless Science System

“My current favorite is the Ageless Science System. I keep both pieces in my skincare fridge and they are so cooling and soothing plus super hydrating without feeling heavy. I’ve really noticed a difference in the skin around my eyes and on my cheekbones. It appears a lot firmer and smoother after just a few weeks. I love to use this product with my jade roller as well.”

A-List Lash Mascara

 

“One of my favorite products that I am using a lot right now is the A-List Lash Mascara! It is such a great formula and it makes my lashes look amazing. I love that it doesn’t go on clumpy or stick together on my lashes. I also notice that my eyelashes look healthier when I am regularly using A-List as opposed to other mascaras that I own. It’s quickly become one of my favorite mascaras that I’ve ever tried. It is a must have!”

Now that you’ve heard from us, make sure to keep up the conversation. We love to hear what you’re loving by leaving reviews on our website or letting us know on our social pages.

Beat Oily Skin With Aloette

Posted on by Kaitlyn Cook
Share this:

An oily skin type can be one of the most difficult to work with when it comes to skincare routines. It’s important to treat your skin with extra love and use products that keep pores from clogging so that you can avoid pesky breakouts. These are just three of our holy grail products to help you keep oily skin at bay.

 

Toner: Oil Control Toner

Our key ingredients in this toner are Aloe Vera, Rosemary Extract, and Witch Hazel. The Aloe and Rosemary add a special level of soothing and nourishing antioxidants. For some skin types Witch Hazel can be an ingredient to avoid. However, for oily and breakout prone skin types it can be a game changer. Witch Hazel is a natural astringent that has been used for decades to fight against excessive oil production and keep skin hydrated while doing so.

Moisturizer: Aloeclear Get Hydrated Oil-Free Moisturizer 

Moisturizers can be extra tricky when it comes to oily skin. Keeping skin hydrated is still just as important, but you might feel like it’s a step that makes your skin even more oily. This moisturizer was formulated to be oil-free, specifically for acne prone and oily skin. Get Hydrated moisturizer soothes the skin and helps reduce the appearance of redness while diminishing breakthrough shine from excess oil. A blend of Red Clover Extract and Niacinamide help improve skin barrier function and reduce the appearance of shine and pores. Your skin will thank you later! 

Spot Treatment: Made Matte Anti-Shine Stick: 

This is a must-have product for dealing with oily skin on the go. Made Matte is a versatile blotting stick that instantly mattifies and perfects without over drying skin, leaving you with a comfortable shine free look. You can use it as a mattifying primer before you apply your makeup or for on-the-go touch-ups as you start to get oily throughout the day. Breakthrough shine and excess oil doesn’t stand a chance against this formula!

Give Your Sensitive Skin the Special Treatment It Deserves

Posted on by Kaitlyn Cook
Share this:

All our products are already formulated with the best and cleanest ingredients for every skin type. However, we know that having sensitive skin means that you must be even more cautious about the ingredients in your skincare. We know that it can be exhausting trying to sort through products to find the very best. We made a comprehensive list of our products that are the very best for sensitive skin so that you don’t have to!

Cleanser: Gentle Foaming Cleanser ‘

This cleanser was created with every skin type in mind! Our Gentle Foaming Cleanser can be used day and night to gently remove impurities without damaging your skin’s natural moisture balance. It, of course, contains our key ingredient Aloe Vera to hydrate and relieve dry and irritated skin. It is also packed with Vitamin A, C, & E to renew the skin and protect it from daily environmental stressors while Green Tea Extracts provide an extra boost of antioxidants. After using this cleanser, you will find that it cleans the skin without stripping it or leaving behind any redness like other harsh cleansers can do. This truly is a staple product for sensitive skin.

Toner: Sensitive Skin Toner 

Let’s dive into the incredibly soothing and hydrating ingredients that this toner is packed with, cucumber, chamomile, and Aloe Vera. Cucumber is like Aloe Vera in that it is incredibly hydrating and has a cooling effect on the skin. It is also filled with antioxidants that your skin just cannot get enough of. After cleansing, you can use this toner to provide extra nourishment while also gently removing any excess oils, pore clogging impurities, or irritants.

Mask: Beauty Parfait 

A common issue that those with sensitive skin can run into is dryness and inflammation. Sometimes, we suggest one to two times a week, you need to show your skin some extra love and use a face mask. Our Beauty Parfait is a blend of natural yogurt and papaya extracts that leave the skin looking calm, hydrated, and firm. Papaya Extracts also serve as a natural exfoliant to brighten the skin and remove dead cells. This mask is like a superfood smoothie for your skin, you’ll be glowing in no time! 

Moisturizers:  Nutri-Moisture Lotion   

Nutri-Moisture Lotion is the perfect complement to the Gentle Foaming Cleanser. It contains the same nutrient rich, calming ingredients like Aloe Vera, Green Tea Extract, and Vitamin A, C, & E. No matter what your skincare routine is, you need to have a moisturizer and we promise this is the perfect one! Always remember, hydrated skin is happy skin!

Spot Treatment: Stay Pure Acne Treatment Lotion

Pesky zits and small breakouts get the best of us all! Just because you have sensitive skin doesn’t mean that you should have to sacrifice your spot treatment. This treatment includes the typical treatment ingredient of skin-clarifying Salicylic Acid, a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) known for its powerful acne-fighting effects, but it also contains Aloe Vera to help soothing. Salicylic Acid when overused can sometimes cause irritation to the skin. While this formula is created to benefit even the most sensitive of skin, we recommend only applying to those pesky blemishes one to two times a day.

Get shopping and start treating that sensitive skin, ASAP!

4 Winter Skincare Changes We Recommend You Make, Now!

Posted on by Kaitlyn Cook

Oh, it’s almost time to walk in a winter wonderland! As you relish in the joy of lighting candles and hanging wreaths, remember that the cold weather is bound to blow in a little more than holiday cheer. Chilly temps definitely know how to shake things up for our complexion, and with dryness and chapped lips quickly making their yearly appearance, it’s time to show your skin who is in control. Help keep skin jolly and hydrated all season long with Aloette’s tips and tricks for your winter skincare routine.

Get Rich

As winter rolls in, swap out your lightweight moisturizer for a rich and thick formula. With lower moisture levels and cooler air, skin can quickly become dry and flakey in the winter months. Help balance out a drier complexion with an extra boost of hydration that helps lock in moisture using an overnight treatment. Overnight skin care products are a fuss-free way to quench the skin with nourishing ingredients while you sleep, without having to pile on a thick moisturizer during the day.

Try: Beauty Sleep Overnight Cooling Treatment

Soothe and help replenish skin overnight with this cooling treatment. Beauty Sleep is infused with Hyaluronic Acid and Squalene to help nourish skin with vital moisture while helping to retain hydration for an overall softer and firmer-looking complexion.

Exfoliate. Exfoliate. Exfoliate

Cold air outside and dry heat indoors can be an unfortunate combination for your complexion. Dead skin cells tend to pile up quicker in the winter weather, making exfoliation a vital step in your winter skin care routine. Depending on your skin type, you should use an exfoliant 2-3 times a week to help slough away dry skin and encourage healthy skin renewal.

Try: City Detox Environmental Defense Powder Cleanser

This innovative powder-to-lather cleanser combines exfoliating papaya enzyme with soothing Aloe Vera to help gently lift away dry skin and impurities. Use this cleanser a few times a week to help protect skin from environmental stressors and reveal a brighter, smoother-looking complexion—without stripping the skin of its natural oils.

Don’t Forget About the Body

With all the attention we give to our face, the body can feel a little neglected. Extend TLC to your arms, legs and hands with skincare that was made to go beyond your complexion. During the winter months, your body craves vitamins and nutrients. Help revitalize the look of skin and replenish hydration from head to toe with a body cleanser and moisturizer that will wrap your body in a velvety smooth texture.

Try: Re/Charge Clarifying Body Cleanser and Re/Vive Moisture Binding Body Lotion

This body power couple is a part of Aloette’s Re/New Body Collection! Gently wash away impurities while helping to hydrate and revitalize the look of your skin with the Re/Charge Clarifying Body Cleanser. Next, lather your body with the Moisture Binding Body Lotion to help lock in long-lasting moisture using farm to jar™ ingredients, like Aloe Vera and Ginger Root Extract.

Brighten Up

C the light—even with a chill in the air—by incorporating a Vitamin C serum into your winter skincare routine. It’s true that Vitamin C is important year-round, but the cold winter blues make this brightening ingredient a must-have for lackluster skin. Don’t let the cool air dull your glow this holiday season. Reach for a Vitamin C serum to help even the look of skin tone and texture while helping to restore radiance to the complexion.

Try: C the Light Vitamin C Serum

Discover a complexion that is both merry and bright with the Aloette C the Light Vitamin C Serum. Infused with five forms of Vitamin C—including orange peel, lemon peel, citrus essential oils, mandarin orange and citric acid—this multi-tasking serum is proven to help skin appear smoother and more even-toned.

Brighten Up Any Eye Look: Introducing Our Eyesilk Shade in Mermaid

Posted on by Kaitlyn Cook
Share this:

We know blue is bold, but this stunning shade is a must have for anyone. While we’re wearing masks right now, it’s the perfect time to play up the eyes and try something new. We promise that once you start wearing blue eyeshadow, you won’t look back. Here are a couple simple ways that you can add a pop of Mermaid into any eye look.

Eyesilk

In the Corner: 

Add in a pop of blue to just the inner corner of your eyes. You can wear this way on its own with just our Heavenly Sheen Eye Shadow Base or you could add it into a full eye look that you’ve already created. This trick will really call attention to your eyes and brighten them without being too flashy.

Lining the Lash Line: 

This is such a fun option for any bright shadow shade, but especially this one. Take your small tapered brush from your Professional 5-Piece Brush Collection and dip into your Mermaid powder. Trace the shadow just across your lash line and then blend out any harsh lines. If you’re feeling bold you can even use this brush to take it one step further and create a winged liner look!

Just a Dab: 

This is such a simple trick that you can even use your finger to apply it. Just add a dab of Mermaid across the center of your eyes and blend. Wearing a bright shadow on its own can be the easiest and most fool-proof way to sport a colorful look without worry of overdoing it.

Some Basic Tips: 

  • Blue is a great color to wear when you’re tired. It can bring out the whites in your eyes and distract from any lingering sleepiness or redness.
  • If you’re opting for a bolder eye it is often complemented better by more understated looks on the rest of your face. Opt for a more sheer color on the lips and a lighter nude shade of blush.
  • If you’re looking to get the maximum pigmentation, spray some setting spray onto your eyeshadow brush before dipping into the pan. This trick can work on any shade.
