I had the pleasure of trying both the Beekman 1802 Smooth Booster Willow Bark Exfoliating Serum & its counterpart Beekman 1802 Bloom Cream. I had never heard of the brand Beekman 1802 before so this was such a wonderful introduction.
💫Exfoliating Serum - is made up of willow bark, caviar lime (thorny shrubs found in sub tropical rainforests that are filled with tiny juicy bubbles that resemble fish eggs. They contain a potent AHA for exfoliating among other skin benefits). Lactic acid which is more gentle and safer for sensitive skin.
*Smooths and resurfaces appearance of rough & bumpy skin.
*Exfoliates skin's surface revealing younger-looking skin.
*Safe for sensitive skin.
💫Bloom Moisturizer - is made up of a unique prebiotic formulation of goats milk & postbiotic complex to restore healthy, youthful radiance to your skin.
*Instantly delivers mositure beyond the surface for petal-soft skin.
*Restores skin's healthy hydration for a more youthful appearance.
*Helps control oily skin & keeps skin balanced.
*Boosts skin health & fights dullness for blooming radiance.
First, I applied them separately using the serum after cleansing & toner & then following
with the moisturizer. I have normally dry skin for context. My skin felt smooth & plump after application but a little while later it felt tight & very dry. This was probably because I had to use a bit more of this powerful serum to cover my face. When you apply them together it has a fun, cute technique that combines the 2 creating a omnipotent concoction. You start with the bloom cream moisturizer which has a flower petal dispenser. Give it about 2-3 pumps. Then you apply 1-2 drops in the center of the flower & mix. I found this way of applying the serum to be much more effective & controlled. For me, this worked perfectly. Like I mentioned, I do have dry skin & because these formulations do not contain any oils, I did spray a oil infused hydrating spray afterwards for extra moisture. I definitely started noticing benefits. #1 being smoother & plumper skin. Bumps on forehead & chin area broke down & dissappeared. My skin started showing a youthful radiance & I noticed some soft benefits to wrinkles so far. Cruelty free, clinically kind certified, & microbiome friendly. 💯 Most definitely recommend! Especially for my oily skin friendships!!! ✨️
