It’s the norm to desire effective skincare that tackles not one but a handful of skincare concerns. Whether it’s the first signs of ageing, dehydration, or loss of luminosity, most of us have more than one complexion woe that we would like to address with our daily routine. However, thanks to the myriad of new products hitting the shelves daily, it’s tempting to reach for a handful of products that address each skin concern individually.
A new approach to healthy, resilient skin
While we all have unique skin concerns, when it comes to the causes of these skin woes, the skincare experts at Shiseido have discovered three common imbalances that cause concern: oil balance, barrier function, and hydration level. As our skin ages, fine lines, loss of resilience, dark spots, and dullness can appear simultaneously. As a result, each issue accentuates the next. For example, fine lines and lack of radiance appear more prominent when skin is dehydrated or when our skin’s barrier is impaired.
With this in mind, Shiseido has harnessed the remarkable botanical extracts and combined them with skincare science to create Vital Perfection’s star ingredient complex, VP8. Rather than target one concern, VP8 addresses the eight signs of skin ageing: wrinkles, pores, fine lines, dullness, dryness, loss of resilience, texture, and dark sports.
By focusing on aged skin proteins – the common root cause of the various age-related skin concerns – the remarkable complex can help slow down ageing and revitalise and restore the skin’s vitality and resilience. And because VP8 is coupled with Shiseido’s innovative radiance and tone-enhancing ingredient, 4MSK, dark spots and lacklustre skin are minimised, and luminosity is restored to your complexion.
Available in standard and enriched formulations.
Step one: The Softener
You can take steps to ensure your skincare is as effective as possible, and adding Shiseido Vital Perfection White Revitalizing Softener Enriched to your daily routine is one of them. Similar to a skincare essence, a softener is an essential step between your regular cleanser and your moisturiser.
On application, the Vital Perfection softening lotion hydrates skin almost instantly. And because the VP8 ingredient complex powers it, the softener works to suppress the degeneration of aged skin proteins. As a result, skin is more resilient, smooth, radiant, and healthy. Plus, Shiseido Vital Perfection Revitalizing Softener Enriched readies your skin for the next step in your routine – your moisturiser.
Step two: The Emulsion
Spring is often the season where we switch out our heavy-duty, winter-friendly moisturiser in favour of a formulation that is lighter and quickly absorbed into our skin. Shiseido’s new Vital Perfection White Revitalizing Emulsion Enriched is the perfect answer for those looking for a moisturiser that delivers results without leaving the skin feeling weighed down.
Although the formulation of the new emulsion is incredibly light, it doesn’t sacrifice results: Vital Perfection White Revitalizing Emulsion Enriched boosts skin hydration levels right away. As well as keeping skin well hydrated right around the clock, the clever formulation works to slow the signs of skin ageing. By harnessing the potent VP8 ingredient complex, the emulsion works to strengthen skin, restore luminosity, and enhance elasticity and tone.
