Wow. There you have it my friend. The best Revolution Skincare for your very special skin. Do you need help pulling together a Revolution Skincare routine? Come ask me your questions down below… CICA Multi Use Cream aka balm – also contains bisabolol like all Revolution Skincare CICA products (see more about this in the actives section below) Before we dive into skincare heaven, it’s worth taking a few moments to confront the especially super obvious question for anyone who’s used OG budget skincare brand The Ordinary. What makes Revolution Skincare different? Revolution Skincare Blemish and Pore Refining Serum is a hero for oily, congested and blemish-prone skin. Eek – this is where Revolution Skincare really stand out, because if there could be just one ingredient for sensitive skin – it’s going to be cica aka centella asiatica.

Salicylic acid– exfoliating active which is especially dissolvable in oil aka can get deep into your pores – where acne is born. Mattify boost– contains an ‘elastomer network’– aka Cyclopentasiloxane with Polysilicone-11 which can help absorb excess sebum – think of it like tiny little fibres of abosrbable oil blotting sheets inside your skincare.

What’s the difference between mature skin and skin that’s age concerned/has those first signs of ageing? It’s all about potency here. Plus direct action to boost precious collagen and elastin levels inside of your skin. You want to be looking for the post-person, not the mail. You want actives being delivered right to your skin’s front door. And you want them to be ones which are THE most well proven. Here’s that list my friend… In combination, these ingredients regulate the skin’s natural oil production to help prevent further congestion, while Zinc has calming and soothing properties, to help reduce the appearance of active blemishes. Squalane (found in Revolution Skincare Night Restore Oil)– skin similar version of a major oil found in human sebum called squalene – helps condition and nourish skin. CBD aka cannabidol– IT ingredient of the moment. It’s potently anti-inflammatory aka great for helping irritated and redness prone skin.

Niacinamide– hero of everything with a capital E. Niacinamide’s specifically fab for acne prone skin as it’s anti-inflammatory, anti-redness plus some science studies show it has potential to reduce sebum production while others show it can help to reduce microcomedones aka the foundations of a spot.

Will you be claiming the VAT back?

Glycolic acid– an exfoliating active which can also help boost your skin’s collagen production. Hooray. In the next 2 to 5 minutes we will have you sorted with THE BEST Revolution Skincare for your very special skin type and super specific skin needs. That’s because down below you are about to find a must bookmark cheat sheet of the best Revolution Skincare split per skin type and skin concerns. The ultimate way to get started with budget skincare which works. There are some Revolution Skincare products I wouldn’t recommend you use. If you were ever in doubt whether sponsored content tells you the real deal – here is proof. Some of Revolution Skincare formulas miss the mark in my skincare formulators eyes. That’s because of simple ‘faux-pas’ like using a lot of alcohol in their revolution quinoa night peel. How can you tell? Alcohol denat. is the first name after water on the ingredients list. It’s a no from me. All of the formulas I’m recommending you here are free from these FP’s and therefore have best super potential to do awesome things for your skin. Revolution Skincare Review The key to healthy skincare for your oily/combination skin type; steer clear from skincare with lots of alcohol – it’s drying and will temporarily make your skin feel fab. Super addictive. Then, alcohol high skincare does this, it eats away your skin’s natural barrier (think of it like the walls of your skin house), making your skin’s battery health bar plummet. Yiksey (!)

Green tea– you’ll find it as Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract on the label – known to help stop your skin converting androgens into up to 10 times more potent androgens, and you guessed it my friend – androgen hormones cause your skin to pump out the oil like they were firefighters at an Inferno. Glycine Soja Oil (found in Revolution Skincare Night Restore Oil)– contains natural actives called soy phytosterols – these guys can help repair a broken skin barrier. While Paula’s Choice use a whole host of partnering actives – and their formula is good – that price difference makes active skincare with huge potential to work, a whole lot more accessible/tryable/loveable to a whole lot more people. CICA aka centella asiatica– which naturally contains 3 super soothers known as asiaticoside, asiatic acid, madecassic acid – it’s a star of ayurvedic medicine, which can be super controversial – mostly because ayurvedic medicine can be along the same lines as ‘old wives tales’. But guess what, sometimes old wives tales turn out to be 100% truth, we just didn’t yet know the science reasons for why they work. Centella is one of those herbs with truth. It’s super soothing, healing plus collagen boosting (anti-ageing) – and science now knows why. They get stressed by pollution particles – note – pollution particles have been specifically linked to dark marks/sun spots/liver spots on cheeks.

There’s a whole load more fun here. While The Ordinary are ‘clinical’ Revolution Skincare are like what would happen if you crossed a doctor with a TopShop stylist. This means some Revolution Skincare formulas are not for everyone – for example, some Revolution Skincare products use small amounts of fragrance and essential oils, plus colourants. The Ordinary skincare do not. They are 0% here. Aka experience lines my friend. Be loud and proud about them, and also know it’s A-OK to age gracefully with fine line reversing skincare. It is not a contradiction – why wouldn’t you look after yourself eh. Skincare which helps anti-age or age protect your skin is doing one of 2 things;
