ANTI-AGING, AT ANY AGE
MURAD LAUNCHES RETINOL YOUTH RENEWAL EYE SERUM AND NIGHT CREAM

Fortifying our beauty regimens with an extra layer of protection and prevention, skincare powerhouse Murad launches its freshest new duo: the Retinol Youth Renewal Eye Serum and Night Cream. A nighttime complement to the best-selling Retinol Youth Renewal Serum launched in 2017, the two new additions to Murad’s Resurgence collectiontarget wrinkles, dark circles and signs of aging after dark to give the skin its well-deserved beauty sleep.MURAD LAUNCHES RETINOL YOUTH RENEWAL EYE SERUM AND NIGHT CREAM (6) MURAD LAUNCHES RETINOL YOUTH RENEWAL EYE SERUM AND NIGHT CREAM (5) MURAD LAUNCHES RETINOL YOUTH RENEWAL EYE SERUM AND NIGHT CREAM (4)Like the daytime serum introduced last year, this power duo is formulated with Murad’s groundbreaking Retinol Tri-Active Technology. Furthering the skin’s improvement in three ways, this system is armed with hastened cellular turnover, lipid-encased retinol that gradually melts into the skin, and magnet-like effects to promote efficacy and absorption. Swertia Flower Extract, a Himalayan ingredient with the ability to aid skin regeneration after being exposed to burns, is also present in both products to soothe skin and keep irritation at bay.MURAD LAUNCHES RETINOL YOUTH RENEWAL EYE SERUM AND NIGHT CREAM (4)In a Murad-sponsored study, the Retinol Youth Renewal Eye Serum earned its stripes with 93% seeing a reduction in lines and wrinkles and 87% attesting to firmer skin in the span of four weeks. In addition to the Retinol Tri-Active Technology present across the product range, the eye serum also boasts of Marine Kelp Complex, which makes for a lit-up-from-within look by brightening up stubborn dark circles. The Retinol Youth Renewal Night Cream, luxurious and thick in consistency, is a peptide-rich double agent that delivers moisture and elasticity, as well as a relaxing sensation.MURAD LAUNCHES RETINOL YOUTH RENEWAL EYE SERUM AND NIGHT CREAM (1)MURAD LAUNCHES RETINOL YOUTH RENEWAL EYE SERUM AND NIGHT CREAM (2)Both packing a one-two punch of anti-aging properties, both formulations exhibit the power of retinol, reinvented: powerful yet gentle, effective without being overwhelming. Reminding us that it’s never too early to start our anti-aging routines, Murad keeps youth within reach at any and every age.MURAD LAUNCHES RETINOL YOUTH RENEWAL EYE SERUM AND NIGHT CREAM (3)The Retinol Youth Renewal Eye Serum (15mL) retails for P4,850, while the Retinol Youth Renewal Night Cream (50mL) is priced at P4,550. Both additions to the Murad Resurgence collection is available in all Rustan’s Department Stores.

Dessert at Lorna’s

By | Singapore | No Comments

Lorna invited us for Chinese New Year dessert at her place and it’s so homy and beautiful. She has been living here in this condo complex since she moved to Singapore 14 years ago and she told me she loves her place because she hardly goes out and spends a lot of her time at home after work.
