Tested for you: Day and night care from Carthusia Skinlab 

Day and night care – if I’m going to use both types of care, they should at least come from the same line. That’s why I also used the day and night care from the new Carthusia Skincare range. You might think that the Italian cult brand Carthusia is only known for its unique luxury niche perfumes. That’s right! But last year’s sun care has now been followed by a new skincare line. It too comes from Capri, Italy’s most famous place of longing. What’s more, the island is a myth with a magical atmosphere. It is the island of lemons. So how could the skincare line be called anything other than “Lemon Garden”? Day and night care with the scent of Capri Carthusia has not only captured the Capri flair in its fragrances. Even the yellow color of the “Lemon Garden” jar conjures up sunshine in the bathroom. The day and night cream smells of Mediterranean lemon groves. In addition, the refreshing lemon water in the “Lemon Garden Day Cream” provides intensive moisturization. The active water is extracted directly from the yellow fruit. It contains balanced amounts of trace elements (oligo-elements), minerals and essential oils. It was this lemon scent of the day and night care that won me over to the cream straight away. The boosting anti-ageing moisturizer for the day has a pleasantly light, fast-absorbing texture. My skin immediately feels replenished and looks plumper and fresher. But that’s not all: squalane provides additional moisture and improves the skin’s elasticity and resilience. Antioxidative properties The limonene or L-limonene from the lemon helps to reduce inflammation of the skin and is effective against dark spots. At the same time, it is a powerful natural antioxidant and acts as a free radical scavenger. This protects the skin from damage and premature ageing. The active ingredient allantoin provides suppleness and has a smoothing effect. It also stimulates cell division. Extracts from the shoots of prickly pear cactus are also added. The prickly pear extract, rich in minerals, polysaccharides, vitamins and flavonoids, soothes and moisturizes the skin and reduces redness. Finally, it contains lecithin. It helps the skin to regenerate itself, reduce age spots and improve elasticity Night cream for a good night’s sleep The “Lemon Garden Wrinkle Prevention Night Face Cream” has a slightly creamier texture, but still feels pleasantly light on the skin. I was pleasantly surprised by this, as night creams are usually too rich for me.… weiterlesen
