fave products // comfort zone sublime skin intensive serum

As someone who has yet to try any treatment beyond topical products and lasers for skincare improvements, anything that claims to have “natural filler effects” is intriguing. Comfort Zone Sublime Skin Intensive Serum combines the best of science and sustainability to create a facial serum that boasts some seriously impressive anti-aging benefits, if I do say so myself. The serum contains bio-actives such as hexapeptide (which has been known to give a botox-like effect), macro hyaluronic acid, and even achillea botanical extract (anti-aging powerhouse!) from regenerative agriculture.

After incorporating the Intensive Serum into my routine for a while, both morning and evening, I can truly say that my skin feels firmer, tighter, and smoother overall. I like that the formula is lightweight and easily absorbed, and layers nicely under my other products. It definitely leaves you with that coveted youthful glow we all strive for as we start to get older. As an added bonus, Comfort Zone’s innovative reusable, refillable packaging allows it to generate less impact on the environment as well! For an epic one-two punch, I highly suggest following up the serum with the Comfort Zone Sublime Skin Cream.

fave products // furtuna skin rituale luminoso transformation set

Furtuna Skin had been on my must-try list for quite some time now. So I was super excited to get the opportunity to try out a specially curated set, known as the Rituale Luminoso Transformation Travel Set, which includes a micellar essence, a face & eye serum, and a moisturizing face oil. For those who don’t know, all of Furtuna Skin's products originate on their own organic farm in Sicily! This set includes sweet-smelling, wild foraged botanicals designed to help transform your skin.

Furtuna believes in the fundamental pillars of skincare, and that is reflected in the dual action formulas of each of these products. First up, in pillar one, you’ll prepare skin with Acqua Serena Micellar Essence, a cleanser and toner in one that removes impurities, balances pH, and soothes for a radiantly bright complexion. Pillar two involves treating the skin with Porte Per La Vitalità Face and Eye Serum, a dual-use, supercharged treatment for the face and eye area that absorbs in a flash for an instant glowing transformation. Key hydration comes into play in pillar 3 with Due Alberi Biphase Moisturizing Oil, a two-in-one bioactive blend for plumping moisture, antioxidant protection, barrier moisture repair, and Vitamin C to help support skin’s natural collagen synthesis. These three essentials create a transformative ritual (like the name of the set implies) that leave skin luminously smooth and protected, while helping to soften fine lines and restoring the skin’s overall resilience.

Thanks to natural ingredients like olive oil and anchusa azurea, both of which are packed with vitamins and fatty acids to nourish, rejuvenate and soothe your complexion, you’ll be saying hello to glowing, luminous skin in no time. Not to mention, this set is already the perfect size for on-the-go, so you can take it with you on all your travels as well. Since Furtuna is not exactly a budget-friendly brand, it’s also a great intro set to get you acquainted with the brand, in case you’ve been interested in trying it out for yourself!
