Vitamin C Has A New Boss – C.E.O. by Sunday Riley

categories: Reviews

In the world of skincare, one of the best things you can do for your face is use Vitamin C. This is a powerful, stable and highly effective way to prevent and repair the visible signs of premature skin aging. Finding products that work well with your skin can be difficult but the Aspect Dr reviews are always glowing and this range includes an active Vitamin C serum. Finding a skincare range with Vitamin C is great because it will lighten and brighten an uneven complexion. This is also a powerful antioxidant that utilizes Vitamin C to moisturize the user’s skin as well as promoting collagen growth. It is well-known that collagen will keep the skin plump and firm, whilst preventing fine lines and wrinkles. In fact these days you can get products like Anti Aging Face Oil which are made to prevent these wrinkles, especially if this is an insecurity of yours. There are plenty of these on the market with different magic ingredients, it’s all about finding what works best for you. There are many other ranges out there containing Vitamin C. The key to the new C.E.O. line by Sunday Riley is the particular type of Vitamin C they use (5% THD Ascorbate). Their formula is less irritating than other forms of Vitamin C, like L-Ascorbic Acids. If you are looking to brighten your skin, provide antioxidant support and fight the look of damage caused by UV-B exposure, then you need to try out this new skincare line.

@sundayriley C.E.O. line is jammed packed with #vitaminc – which fights the visable signs of #UV and micropollution-induced #skinaging It is perfect for all skin types, especially #sensitiveskin Now available at @sephora #VitaminCHasaNewBoss #ad #skincare #beauty #beautyblogger #SundayRiley

The 3 players in the C.E.O. game are: C + E Micro-Dissolve Cleansing Oil, C + E Anti Oxidant Protect + Repair Moisturizer and Rapid Flash Brightening Serum.

C + E Micro-Dissolve Cleansing Oil

When it comes to cleansing oils you have to really pay attention to what you want from your cleanser. With the C.E.O. Cleansing Oil, you can be sure you are getting a quality product that works. There are a few key ingredients that pair up with the use of Vitamin C which get you this stellar cleanser. First, White Willow Bark. This provides a natural beta hydroxy acid (BHA) that gets you a deeper pore cleansing. To pair up with that, they added in Turmeric, which provides antioxidants while reducing the look and feel of skin redness and sensitivity. I have very sensitive skin and had no issues using this product.

C + E Anti Oxidant Protect + Repair Moisturizer

The C.E.O. Moisturizer has been one of my top face creams in my rotation. This is by far the best smelling cream I have ever used. The amazing smell comes from their use of Lime Pearl Extract, which is extracted from the caviar lime. These lime pearls are a natural source of AHA. The rich and smooth texture gives you the coverage you desire in a morning and night time routine. It absorbs perfectly so if you are going to apply makeup you do not have to wait an exorbitant amount of time. If you have reactive or sensitive skin, then you are going to love this moisturizer because they also added in Bisabolol, which is often used in baby products for its soothing benefits.

Rapid Flash Brightening Serum

This is the serum for the exhausted parents out there! I often do not get the full night’s rest that my body and skin need. For those days (or months for the infant parents out there), you are going to lean on this serum to give your skin a healthy-looking radiance and glow. Sunday Riley really amps up the use of Vitamin C in this serum, getting 15% ultra-stable, advanced Vitamin C in there. It is both highly stable and oil-soluble, helping it to rapidly absorb into the skin, for enhanced tone, clarity and visible brightening.

  • THD Ascorbate is classified as a quasi-drug in Japan at 3%, for visible skin brightening. Sunday Riley uses it in CEO Rapid Flash Brightening Serum at 15%!

The Rapid Flash Serum can be used day or night, I have used it at both and love how smoothly it goes on and how soft it feels on my skin.

C.E.O is the amazing new cream that has been recently released by the ever amazing Sunday Riley. It is not, however, named C.E.O for being the boss, but for it’s main ingredients, vitamin C and exopolysaccharides. These ingredients help protect skin from pollution and aid in the fight against signs of aging. They also included antioxidants, which together gives us the C.E.O. name. If you are a women who is like me, and thinking more and more about what I can do to keep my skin youthful, then this is a the new cream from you collection. While it may not have been named C.E.O because it’s the boss, in this Mama’s eyes, it is!

This Mama’s Experience

I have never, I mean never smelled a cream so amazing in my whole life and I have seen a lot of creams that are meant to be for natural anti aging skin care. C.E.O has lime pearl extract, which gives it a fresh and soft scent that lingers only as it is applied. I do not like heavy perfumed creams, but I also dont like ones that smell like the root ingredients either. It’s a fine line really. Sunday Riley really hit the mark with their choice in lime pearl extract. This not only gives the cream the most beautiful scent, but its a key ingredient too. The lime Sunday Riley uses is extracted from the caviar lime. These pearls are a natural source of AHA, which is perfect for skin exfoliation.

The other key ingredients are: Vitamin C, exopolysaccharides and Bisabolol. Here is my easy to understand break down of these ingredients.

Vitamin C – It is clinically proven to promote natural collagen (youthful looking skin/anti aging like quality). It brightens your skin tone in a similar to products such as Glutathione by Quicksilver, provides anti-oxidant support and fights damage caused by UV-B exposure (the sun). There are several types of vitamin c that can be used in manufacturing a cream and Sunday Riley choose the one that is less irritating so keep your skin calm and happy.

Exopolysaccharides – this is found in Kopara deposits located in French Polynesia (in the ground). It protects our skin from the visible effects of pollution exposure bu shielding effect from PM 2.5 (the particles found in smog).

Bisabolol – this is a derivative from Chamomile. It helps calm the look and feel of reactive and sensitive skin. Its often used in baby products because of its soothing effects.

With time I have noticed a shift in my skin. In my 20’s I had a more oily skin that was acne prone. Now, in my 30’s my skin is way dry and much more sensitive. It makes sense that now I need to shift my beauty regime to one that is more nutrient based and one that is rich in moisture. I often have to apply multiple layers of face cream in the mornings after my shower. This is due to my skin require more moisture than it used to. With Sunday Riley’s C.E.O, I only have to apply my cream one time! This means it is really soaking in fully and working instantly. I love how my skin feels after applying a luxurious coat of C.E.O. It quickly absorbs so if I am in a hurry I am able to immediately apply my foundation and make up for the day.

As a mom who is constantly outside, on-the-go and unfortunately aging daily, I know this is the prime time to care for and nurture my skin. As a woman in her mid-30’s I have to be proactive and take extra measures to ensure I keep my youthful and healthy skin. While I don’t strive to be a beauty star, a model or anything more than who I am, I do want to be a good steward to my face and the skin the good Lord gave me. I believe by using this rich in moisture and fully loaded face cream I am doing just that.

As you can read, I have nothing but positive things to say about Sunday Riley’s C.E.O Cream.

Do yourself a favor and pick one up today, and be sure to add it to your Mother’s Day wish list this year.
