08 Feb Allure February Issue: BeautyStat Reviews Kesari Triphala Radiance Firming Serum & Giveaway
In the latest East-meets-West mashup, Kesari Triphala Radiance Firming Serum combines herbal extracts used in Ayurveda, India’s ancient medical tradition, with retinol, the Western gold standard for reducing wrinkles. Here, our assessment (click on the above image to enlarge). – Brooke Le Poer Trench – for Allure magazine February 2011 issue
RETINOL
It’s the most effective wrinkle smoother — made smarter. “Since this form of retinol is time-released, it could be less irritating and more effective,” says cosmetic chemist and founder of BeautyStat.com, Ron Robinson.
SAFFRON
Some Indian brides rub this spice, which has a yellow-orange pigment, on their faces to glow at their weddings. The small amount in this serum “will help give skin a subtle golden sheen,” Robinson says.
PEPTIDES
Tiny chains of amino acids penetrate skin and increase collagen production. The 3 percent concentration in this serum may lift and firm skin after a few months says dermatologist Amy B. Lewis.
TRIPHALA
“This Ayurvedic remedy contains alma, a rich source of vitamin C,which can brighten the skin – but we don’t know whether this works, since it hasn’t been tested adequately,” says Lewis.
