BIOTHERM LIFE PLANKTON™ ELIXIR ANTI-AGING SERUM
Today I'm sharing some thoughts on the Life Plankton™ Elixir Anti-Aging Serum by BIOTHERM. Now when I hear the words plankton I hear is the profound non-parallels of Whales and Humans from the mouth of Peter Cook in the Derek & Clive skit I Saw This Bloke from their 1977 album, Come Again. Unfortunately I can't repeat the jag here as it's not one for the prim-consciences, but I do recommend you find it in your own time.
But let's crack on with the product, and firstly let’s find out what is Life Plankton™?
Life Plankton™ is a probiotic extract containing 35 nutrients that deliver intense regenerating hydration for visibly soothed, soft and luminous skin. They are sustainably produced in France since 1994 and are 100% natural, biodegradable and renewable, true to their Blue Beauty commitments.
BIOTHERM products contains no parabens, no fragrance allergens and are enriched with Life Plankton™, pure thermal plankton extract that contains 35 nutrients, proteins, vitamins, amino acids, glucids, lipids and trace elements that help revive the skin’s vital functions and which are essential to its health.
The pledge on the BIOTHERM website reads,
Life Plankton™ Elixir is the best anti-aging serum for fine lines, being clinically proven to visibly reduce signs of aging such as wrinkles and make the skin firmer and stronger.
Thoughts
To get the best results from this hyaluronic acid serum you need to apply 3 to 4 drops after toner and before face care. Apply the drops into your palm and massage on to face, neck and décolleté. (A low neckline on a woman's dress or top).
Previously I would use vitamin C serums, which do give my skin a glow. I've moved on from rubbing froze fruit popsicles on my face in the morning. Far too much faff. Life Plankton™ Elixir Anti-Aging Serum is a keen addition to my regime as it already has highly stabilized Vitamin C a powerful antioxidant and brightening agent.
Results
As a result my skin has stayed hydrated. It is nice and light on my skin and does not feel sticky or oily. I've noticed some good effects on my skin with regards to the anti-aging. Some fine lines have been pegged back. However, I've mainly enjoyed being a part of the ethos and goodwill philosophy that is truly the allure for BIOTHERM. BIOTHERM believes in using its Blue Biotech expertise to produce ingredients that are more potent, more sustainable and more natural. Their sustainable biotech processes allow them to transform water micro-organisms with high skin bio-affinity into high performing skincare ingredients.
