Writing about our '10 years younger kit'

All skin care products promise to deliver results, but dermatologists know that to have any real effect the ingredients need to reach the lower dermis – and the simple fact is that many products don’t travel that deep.

However, the Ten Years Younger Kit from Essentially Yours has been developed by a pharmaceutical-trained cosmetic research and development team with a scientific understanding of exactly what is required to have a real effect.

It consists of a bottle of Luxury Facial Oil (Patchouli/Lavender/Geranium) and another of Rejuvenating Day Serum (Orange/Lavender), which contain natural oils with small enough molecules to reach the lower dermis.

Made in the UK in small batches to ensure freshness, the products only use natural organic plant and vegetable derived ingredients to give maximum therapeutic benefits to the skin. The company also suggest using the oil first and then the cream on top; this method punches the oil into the lower dermis and traps it there so that you make your own moisturiser in the skin.

Using completely organic vital and essential oils and adding an all-natural cream on top not only means the treatment is 100% antioxidant, but also that it creates and stimulates amino acids – and thus collagen production – and when the oil hits the lower dermis it also plumps up the skin very quickly so fine lines are pushed out. An additional benefit is that the skin now has the very best antioxidants in/on it, so has significantly higher protection from free radicals, which are the main factor in sun damage and cancer of the skin.
