The Foundation of my Soveral Skincare routine

Earlier this month, I announced that I am a Soveral skincare brand ambassador. This relationship is incredibly important to me because I want to share elegant products that are made with the highest quality, that I believe will truly benefit you. And Soveral skincare is exactly that.

I have spent over 20 years in the fashion industry and my favorite roles have been creating clothing and accessory collections. While fashion insiders appreciate designer labels, what we truly covet are those ultra-chic brands are that are understated and incredibly well designed…the brands that the fashion editors wear and write about without being paid for it.

That is precisely what Soveral skincare is in the beauty industry. It’s that chic, elegant line that is packed with quality. Vitamins. Anti-oxidants. Hand blended. It honestly does not get more luxurious than this. I understand how to manufacture goods, so while I will buy a shirt from Zara, I will not buy a face cream from Target because I want the ingredients that I use on my skin to be of the highest quality. My skin is simply too important to me.

Here is the foundation of my skincare routine. I do this every morning and evening and am enormously pleased with the results. It is also a moment for myself…a little bit of self-care in my crazy day and that is the ultimate luxury.

Step 1: Awaken Cleanser
Awaken cleanser is a light, milky cleanser that smells like a little bit of heaven. Every evening when I take off my makeup, I take a deep breath and inhale the lavender essential oil. It is made with aloe vera, sunflower seed oil and will give your skin a deep cleanse (also removes eye makeup) without damaging your skin.

Step 2: Floral Rain Face Mist
After cleansing my skin, I will then apply the floral rain face mist that is made with orange blossom and red roses. It hydrates prepares the skin for the facial oil and cream. I also use it mid-day for a little refreshment.

Step 3: Forever Young or Midnight Oil Facial Oils
These facial oils are probably my favorite product in the routine. I feel they make a significant difference in my skins appearance. There have been times when I ran out and people have asked if I am tired….and the truth is that I have run out of my facial oils!

I use Forever Young during the day. It contains Omega-3 fatty acids to protect the outer layer of the skin while a synergistic blend of essential oils to stimulate the detoxification and regeneration of the skin.

At night, I use the Midnight Oil, which was voted “One of the Best Radiance Boosters”. It is made with palmarosa and rose geranium, which balances both oily and dry skin. Lemon and fennel help the skin the skin decongest and breathe while stimulating cell renewal to refresh and hydrate. If your skin is sallow and tired, then this product is for you.

Step 4: Formula 1 or Formula 2
Because I like my skin to be very hydrated, I then follow up with the Formula 1 (at night) or Formula 2 (during the day) moisturizer.
These creams have a rich luxurious feel but have never clogged my pores.

Formula 1 is made with sunflower seed oil apricot kernel oil and mango butter and a natural regenerative stimulant to keep you glowing all day. They also contain a blend of essential oils that help you fight fatigue and stress.

I use Formula 2 during the day. It is the same blend as Formula 1 and adds SPF 15 to protect from sun damage.

Step 5: Forever Young Eye Cream.

The name pretty much says it all. If you are battling puffiness or dark circles then this eye cream is for you. It contains mandarin peel, frankincense, vitamin E, honey extract and evening primrose to decongest and prevent wrinkles.

Friends, I encourage you to take care of your skin, you only get one set of it. If you have any questions, please reach out; I am happy to answer any questions you may have. To shop these styles, see below or go to www.alexandrasoveral.co.uk.com for the full collection. 

Bisous,
Rebecca

Who is Alexandra Soveral and why am I obsessed with her products?

this post is sponsored by Soveral but the opinions expressed are my own

Friends… I am excited to announce another “first” for Style & Life! I am going to be a brand ambassador for the award-winning skincare brand, Alexandra Soveral. If you have been following me for any length of time, you will know this is a dream come true. I started posting about Soveral skincare back in 2014. It is such an honor to work with a brand I have been using for many years.

Skincare is, hands down, the #1 thing in which I invest. This has been my perspective since my early 20’s. You can always buy a nicer shirt or pair of shoes, but you only get one set of skin. If I need to cut back on my budget, I will do it in other places, but never my skincare. I have tried a lot of different products over the years. A LOT. I discovered Soveral one evening while scrolling through Pinterest one evening and it immediately peaked my interest. Particularly, the fact that it is 100% organic and hand blended.

I placed an order, which I will never forget. Someone emailed me the next morning and advised my items would ship in 2 days since they were making “a fresh batch”. I was beyond impressed. A fresh batch? It hasn’t been sitting on a shelf for 2 years? I gladly waited and when I received the items, was delighted with the clean, elegant packaging which just so happens to be and how it is recyclable and created using non-toxic inks.

About a week after using the products I had multiple friends and colleagues ask “What did you do to your skin? It looks amazing…you are glowing.”  I was traveling frequently and my skin was sallow and tired. After using Soveral products, it was brighter, smoother and had an overall better texture. Since then, several of my friends have tried it and are also hooked.

The company was founded by Alexandra Soveral and Jorj Aleem.  Alexandra is the perfumier and cosmetic formulator, while Jorj concepts and defines how the product is presented. Alexandra was studying for her Bachelor Honours Degree in the Philosophy of Science (how the use of genetic engineering of flora will affect the world in future generations). She became aware of how irresponsible science is being used within the skincare industry and decided to marry her interest of science with natural skincare. She set up her own research lab into natural raw ingredients and their benefit on the human health. Impressed? Me too. Additionally, they have received a number of prestigious awards (to learn more click here).

Many of her products are available at net-a-porter.com or you may order directly from their website alexandrasoveral.com. I am excited to share more about this incredible brand in upcoming posts.

Bisous,

Rebecca
