New Product Alert: Darphin Tangerine Aromatic Care

[daer0n]

The latest creation from French skincare brand Darphin looks like a bottle of citrus-y goodness, but it's so much more than that. Tangerine Aromatic Care ($75) is an anti-aging oil designed to give your skin a dewy, radiant finish and a more supple texture. Not surprisingly, it smells delicious and calming, and it makes my skin feel really soft. This product also has me even more convinced that the thing about oil being bad for your skin is just a myth.

Tangerine Aromatic Care is made with rich and natural ingredients, such as vitamin C to help produce skin cell renewal and collagen, antioxidants to protect skin from free radicals and environmental damage, and essential oils of tangerine, carrot, and orange to help to tone and tighten your delicate facial skin.

To apply, just place four to five drops of oil on your fingertips and gently massage them into your neck and face in small outward circles. Be sure to take deep breaths and relax your facial muscles. The oil absorbs very quickly upon contact and leaves your skin feeling unbelievably soft and smelling fresh.

sounds good. i've read on online shops lemon and orange EO are phototoxic, i wonder if it's the same for this product?

Well - Vitamin C is also ascorbic acid & tangerine/orange are in that citrus family also - what does phototoxic mean? I think the orange/tangerine also just contribute to the Vitamin C (which is an AMAZING antioxidant for skincare). The only thing that sucks is that Vit C treatments in skin care are SO expensive.

Oh, oh I just read something - "Vit C is unstable & degrades quickly when exposed to air & sunlight, so look for products that come in dark bottles or opaque tubes." - Does that have anything to do with phototoxicity? (whatever it is..

)
