OLEHENRIKSEN Dewtopia 20% Acid Night Treatment
Some of you might remember that I covered some products by Ole Henriksen before, the OLEHENRIKSEN's core Truth range. Today I'm going to cover the new OLEHENRIKSEN Dewtopia 20% Acid Night Treatment, (not the catchiest of titles) a transformative re-texturising and replenishing acid serum that does the work while you sleep.
It can be a ghastly thing facing your reflection before your eyes have had a chance to climatise to the light. Actually when you come to think about it. How cruel it is that the first thing you see in the morning after you've checked your blower, is your worst version of yourself after 8 hours in a bed with your face meshed in a down pillow, or sometimes in my case, Charlie's butt.
The only other worst angle you'll catch of your unsuspecting self is when you accidentally get that upwards camera angle of your chins and gaping nostrils as you take a photo on your camera phone with the camera accidentally switched towards you.
I digress.
How to use this product
So how to apply this OLEHENRIKSEN Dewtopia 20% Acid Night Treatment. I do a facial scrub before bead, apply the treatment to my face and neck. It has a very rich formula, a bit like baked beans sauce before you microwave them (I know that sounds horrible but I trust we can all make that mental leap) and then I use a moisturiser to finish.
The Results?
Congratulations to Ole they have completed what they set out to achieve with a powerful treatment that works hard to deliver visible results overnight. Whilst I can't control the crazy bed hair, my skin has a much better glow in the morning. It has a healthy even sheen, not that just woke up in a cold-sweat sheen. Ole have added the replenishing ingredients of birch sap, cotton water, and aloe juice which soothe, soften and condition the skin. All clean, vegan and cruelty free!
Would I use again and buy?
I actually would, if fact I totally would. Maybe not so much if I were a single pringle, but I have to keep up appearances now I'm with other. Especially when they see you at your 6am worse!
