Hydration forms the core of your skincare and is just the bottom line in creating a glowing, healthy complexion. The market holds many products, and getting something that will make a huge difference may be challenging.
That's where a placenta-based product comes in.
If you have never heard of the above, do not worry.
In this article, I will explain what it is and how it will change the hydration of your skin.
Placental derivatives are natural ingredients from animal placentas, primarily cows or sheep. Don't let that turn you off from trying them; the placentas are harvested humanely and cruelty-free. It is then meticulously processed to ensure we obtain the most effective extract for our skincare products. The placenta contains nourishing growth factors and peptides—all necessary for healthy skin, when the extract in the form of a cream is applied to the skin.
Among the many benefits of using a placenta-based product is that it can hydrate the skin to incredible depths.
But how does this happen?
The proteins and amino acids within the placenta extract maintain natural moisture in the skin. It's more like a shield that holds in good things—like water and nutrients—Locking in moisture and shielding your skin from unnecessary harmful elements to keep it hydrated and healthy.
Many people believe that regular moisturizers feel like it just sits on the surface of your skin, not actually being absorbed into the skin. Placenta-based products penetrate the skin. While adding moisture, they lock it in for a prolonged, continuous hydrating period.
While hydration, on its own, is a great benefit, placenta-based products do even more. Here are just a couple of other ways that they can make a difference for your skin:
Anti-Aging: One of the very well-known properties of a placenta extract is rejuvenation. It can minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving your skin a young and smooth texture. The nutrients in the placenta also help to even your skin tone, reducing marks on your face.
Skin Firming: The elasticity of our skin is one of the first things we lose through age.
Placental-based products tend to tighten and improve the skin, making it radiant and firmer.
Placenta Extract: For those who have problems resulting from skin damage or other skin sensitivities, the extract from the placenta can soothe your skin, reducing the redness and irritation on your skin.
If you are new to a placenta-based skin care routine below is a simple guide to get you started in the application steps: Cleanse: Start with a gentle cleanser that removes every dirt, oil, or makeup from your skin.
SERUM: Apply with a placental extract serum. Remember, however, that serums are very light and penetrate deep inside the skin, thus ensuring maximum results/benefits from the placental extract.
Moisturize: Apply with a placenta-based moisturizer. This will lock in the extra layer of hydration. Next, apply the placenta-based eye cream to hydrate the skin around the eye area.” SPF”: Always finish your day routine with sunscreen to protect your skin during the day from UV damage.
For best outcomes, use these products consistently. You may not feel a huge difference instantly, but gradually, upon regular application, you will find your skin is more hydrated, radiant, and looks much younger.
As with any skincare product, Placental skincare products might not be suitable for everyone's skin. When initiating the use of any new skincare product, it is always wise to do a patch test or consult with a dermatologist regarding special conditions, like allergies, before using something new.
It's easy to get overwhelmed deciding which skin care products to use with an ocean of skin care products available on the market. The benefits of placenta-based products, mainly purposed for deep nourishing, can provide a holdover for skin transformation. Skin problems? Ready to fire up the ammunition against them? Give placental products a try—they'll thank you for it.
