Rue Sante - Mindfulness-Based Self-Care™

Item Description

Brightened is a silky, cooling gel made with a combination of organic antioxidant extracts, vegetable collagen and an array of humectants. Brightened provides a soothing and cooling sensation to reduce puffiness, delivers intense hydration to plump and firm texture, and illuminates to reduce the appearance of dull and blotchy skin.

 

Directions For Use:

Use in your mindfulness rituals to smooth away the appearance of fine lines and hydrate your skin. Start by taking a moment to breathe in the comforting aroma of Brightened. Pay attention to all of your senses as you apply the cooling gel to your skin. Notice the silky, hydrating texture. Gently massage the product into your skin and let the power of touch stimulate circulation and blood flow to nourish your skin cells. Breathe in and relax your body. Breathe out and calm you mind. Repeat, and let all your stress slip away.

 

 

Your skin follows a circadian rhythm that influences biological functions such as cell renewal, DNA repair, barrier protection and moisture loss. Recent studies show that the lowest DNA repair happens in the mornings; the highest cell proliferation (new cell growth) happens at night; and the highest TEWL (moisture loss) happens in the afternoons, evenings and at night.

 

Brightened may be used any time of day but for optimal benefit we recommend applying at the following times to synch with your skin's chronobiology:

 

-Morning: for protection against oxidation and associated effects such as under eye puffiness and discoloration.

-Afternoon and Evening: for hydration

-Night: for repair and renewal

 

For best results apply after cleansing and toning. This versatile serum can be used as an eye area treatment, a spot treatment for problem areas, or in combination with any of our face oils and floral hydrosols to apply to face, neck and décolleté areas. For all day and night use. Take it on the go and use to hydrate and revive the skin, especially in dry, air-conditioned indoor areas such as offices and airplanes.

 

Conduct a patch test to check for sensitivities. If you are pregnant, nursing or planning on becoming pregnant, always consult with your doctor before trying any new products.
