If you’ve been planning on starting on the path towards Natural & Clean Beauty, Puraveda Organics can help you get started with an easy, minimalist Skin Care Regimen that will keep your skin looking not just younger, but vibrantly healthy for years to come. However, it’s important to remember that even using the most effective Skin Care, lasting results are never immediate. With patience and the correct skin regimen for your skin type, here’s how fast you can expect to see results…
Understanding the Skin Cycle
Before selecting the best Skin Care for you, it’s important to understand the skin cycle. Our skin regenerates itself every day by producing new skin cells in the deepest layers and discarding the old dead cells from the upper layers. This is why when you use an efficient exfoliator, it not only removes the skin cells faster from the top layers but also boosts cellular regeneration and turnover.
This skin renewal cycle is dependent on your skin type (dosha), age, and of course how well you take care of your skin. The average skin cycle is about 28 days but it slows down with age as follows:
● In your 20s – 20 to 25 days.
● In your 30s to 40s – 30 to 35 days.
● In your 40s to 50s – 60 to 65 days.
● In your 50s to 60s – More than 90 days.
How Long Should You Wait to See Results?
When it comes to skin care, patience is the key. However, effective results can only be expected when you are using a dosha-based skin care regimen with proven effective ingredients that really address your specific skin issues and concerns.
Before you can decide on the efficacy of a new Skin Care routine, you should wait for at least 2-3 skin cycles to see noticeable improvement.
Why?:
- Your skin needs time to adjust to new ingredients.
- The newly created, extra-nourished cells need time to travel from the lower levels (where they are generated) to the top layers of the skin.
- The younger your skin is, the faster the results(unfortunate but true).
Therefore, (Generally speaking) to see visible results for your age, you should expect improvement according to your age:
● 20s – 14 to 28 days (1 cycle),
● 30s to 40s – 28 to 50 days (1-2 cycles),
● 40s to 50s – 50 to 80 days (2-3 cycles), and
● for 50+ years – 80 to 90 days (3+ cycles).
Skin Repair and Revival With the Right Ingredients
Often overlooked, Exfoliation with Papaya & Honey Exfoliation Mask & Scrub (or SBR Facial Mask) is among the most important steps to speed-up the skin renewal process. You should preferably do it at least 2-3X times a week. Those with Sensitive, Blemished, and Rosacea-prone skin should exfoliate 1-2X times a week and be sure to use the SBR version which has no scrubbing particles (in our case, micronized walnut shell beads..Never Plastic!)
In that same vein..Never use chemicals or microbead-based ingredients. Harsh mechanical scrubs should also be avoided as they cause microtears on the skin, and damage the natural skin barrier.
Fruit-based enzyme exfoliants are best for the skin.
For Skin Regeneration and Repair, you need a combination of antioxidant-rich, collagen promoting, moisture-replenishing ingredients.
Our BioScience Peptide Complex has organically derived Argireline and Matrixyl enriched skin peptides and botanicals like Gotu Kola that assist in the generation of new skin cells, shorten the cell turnover cycle and work extensively to treat fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and the other signs of skin aging.
Infused with 100℅ plant-based Hyaluronic acid, cold-pressed oils, and in-house steam distilled botanical extracts, our PVO Organic & Wildcrafted topical “botox” formula feeds the cells with essential nutrients to help them replicate faster, revealing the youngest layer of the skin.
With regular application 2X times a day (morning and evening) you can expect to visible results within 60 days or less.
As always, opt for a personalized Skin Care Regimen for the most optimized results. Our dosha-based Vata, Pitta, or Kapha skin care lines are formulated to address your specific skin concerns.
