Vitamin C Skincare Created From War!

 
Ielizabeth grant 791939n 1948 makeup artist Elizabeth Grant discovered a natural substance used to treat wounds. She had this specially formulated with other ingredients to treat her own skin, damaged in the war. She started her own skincare treatment line to share the secret formulation she had created, called: “Torricelumn™” The line used to be available by special order only, but now the Elizabeth Grant line of Vitamin C Skincare skin care and beauty products is now available at select retail locations around the world.
 

Kelp!

The star ingredient is kelp: extracted from the fronds and hidden within the pods that keep the clusters of fronds afloat. These pods lift the leaf-like fronds to the ocean’s surface, allowing them to absorb sunlight, photosynthesizing oxygen, the source of life and energy. The seawater absorbed by kelp is similar to human plasma, allowing beauty buffs using Elizabeth Grant products to obtain beauty bennies of the sea’s vitamins and minerals, too.
 
The great news is that these are exceptional skincare products. The kelp has to be fresh, which means the plants must reach the laboratory by nightfall. There, they go through an endothermic process, mixed with a blend of other biologically active substances. These include natural sea vitamins, nutrients, and minerals.
 

The Vitamin C Skincare Collection:

By now, my readers all are aware that Vitamin C isn’t just good for colds. It is a powerful antioxidant that helps to reduce skin damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules in the environment caused by pollution, smoking and ozone that damage the skin. Vitamin help strengthens Collagen, our skin’s support structure. The Vitamin C plus Torricelumn in the Elizabeth Grant Vitamin C collection gives skin a real boost.

Packaging:

The tapered, mustard yellow plastic tubes with shiny gold pump tops make me feel elegant and pampered, but the products inside are stellar, delivering hydration, nourishment and protection in a single application. The products are lightweight on your skin, and they’re very lightly scented. They also absorb more quickly than most products I’ve tried (and I do try a lot of them). T
 
Using these makes you feel as if you’ve had a facial: The Vitamin C Day Treatment $59.99 1.7 fl. Oz and Vitamin C Night Treatment $59.99 1.7 fl. Oz. And the Vitamin C Body Lotion 6.6 fl. Oz. may just reduce your need to run to the spa (save your money for other treatments or treats).
 
I like the travel-friendly flip-top tubes. I love the Body Lotion that has staying power, but it’s easily absorbed. Hours later, the softness is still evident.

Luxe Caviar:

Another luxe product from Elizabeth Grant that is NOT in the Vitamin C Collection but that is a quick pick-me-up for glamour gals is the Caviar Rejuvenating Eye Pads $39.00/6 pads. These targets the skin below your eye super-nourishing and hydrating ingredients such as caviar extract, sea proteins, and of course, Torricelumn.
 
Apply a set of pads for 15 minutes and think about how much better you’ll look (let the phone ring or take if off the hook and feel like you’ve been transported “away” for a short while). Caviar has a rich supply Omega 3 Fatty to hep that delicate skin under your eye stay firm and supple, plus the bennies of Torricelumn and Vitamin E, an algae-based skin firmer, magnesium, agiriline (helps reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles).

Even More Luxe!

For more luxe skincare, try Elizabeth Grant’s Biocollasis Advanced Cellular Radiance $149.00. You can’t get more luxe than real gold…and these products have the revitalizing energies of gold, plus natural extracts in them. Caviar, gold…..you can’t treat yourself too much! Your skin will benefit from an improved, natural “glow,” and hydration you will love.
