Garden Botanika Anti-Aging Day, Night, and Eye Creams (Review & Giveaway - US & Canada)

How many of you have been outdoors a whole lot this summer? You've enjoyed the sun, the wind, the surf. You've climbed hills (rocky and mountainous or sandy dunes). You've sat beside pools and lolled along the surf. And now your skin is talking back at'cha. Whether you realize it or not, all that tanning you've done and all that water you've propelled yourself through has taken a toll on your skin's moisture creating a perfect storm for drying, aging to take place. But you can help it out. There are products that will help you baby that skin back into its own beautiful shell for you.

What a joy it is to again to be able to share with you products of quality and that I have used myself.  The Garden Botanika folks have graciously sent me their wonderful anti-aging products.  You know ladies-of-a-certain-age always look for something to ANTI-the-aging-process, and all of you gals need to tune your thinking toward the ANTI-aging line just a wee bit - no matter what age you are.  You see, from the day we're born, we're aging. Don't deny it. It is a fact of life. So we all want to keep our skin as youthful as possible. Now let's see what these products have that might help you in YOUR personal ANTI battle.



Age Reverse Night Recovery Cream - Richly formulated for dry or sensitive skin.

  • Minimizes age spots and sun damage
  • Assists cells with nightly renewal process
  • Skin appears firmer, smoother and more radiant

Apply this emollient cream at bedtime to assist skin cells with their nightly renewal process. Hyaluronic Acid supplies deep moisture while Vitamin C and other botanicals encourage cell repair to minimize age spots, sun damage and fine lines. By morning, skin appears soft, toned and hydrated, with a healthy, even glow. Works at night to support the skins natural rebuilding process while you sleep. 1.62 oz.


 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Daily Renewal Moisture Cream - Renew skin with this balancing, age-defying moisture cream. The combination of Alpha and Beta Hydroxy acids help speed up cell renewal and improve overall texture and tone, while minimizing tell-tale signs of aging. Glycerin and Hyaluronic Acid attract and bind moisture, while Jojoba Seed Oil nourishes healthy new cells. Green Tea Extract helps protect from environmental damage. 1.76 oz

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bestseller Always AgelessTM Revitalizing Eye Cream - For all Skin Types

  • De-puffs instantly
  • Diminishes dark circles
  • Protects and helps prevent signs of aging

Caffeine is the secret weapon in this remarkable new cream that instantly perks up eyes! Along with Algae Extract, caffeine helps remove puffiness and take years off your face. At the same time, a rejuvenating botanical blend plus Vitamins C and K help to diminish dark shadows and lighten and brighten the under-eye area. Amazing antioxidants Maqui Berry Extract and Vitamin E protect against environmental stressors. The result: your eyes will look ageless, instantly and always! 0.50 oz.  Free of Parabens, Gluten, Alcohol, Glycols, PEG’s, Phthalates, Artificial dyes and Fragrance. Vegan!

Now just what do I think of these three products?  Well, I have found that using both the Garden Botanika Age Reverse Night Recovery Cream and the Always Ageless Revitalizing Eye Cream at night makes my skin feel really good and look really good the next morning. It is not heavy and greasy feeling. Then the next morning, I rinse my face and apply the Daily Renewal Moisture Cream and the Revitalizing Eye Cream prior to applying my makeup. Again, my skin feels very soft and my makeup goes on smoothly. 

Consistently using these moisturzing creams won't prevent the years from creeping up on you or prevent the smile or frown wrinkles that inevitably come to all of us. But they will help your skin to be moisturized and moisturized skin is usually smoother skin. I am thoroughly enjoying using these three creams and believe they are really helping my skin retain as much vibrancy and youth as possible for this lady-of-a-certain-age. 

I believe that using quality creams such as these from Garden Botanika protects my skin from the elements that cause the effects of aging.  They are American made. They are free of products you don't want to put on your skin (check the website). They are made from all natural botanical products.  And a caveat for ALL of us..... compared to quality department store facial creams, the price is RIGHT. It is hard to believe this caliber cream is available for just $30 a jar. Check them out.

  32. It is so true that no matter what we do, every day our body continues to age, but just like you, I also strongly believe that we can help slow down the aging process by taking good care of our body and our skin. Anti aging products like eye creams and lift serums are so easy to use, and they can make such a big difference in the way you look and how you feel about yourself as you go through the inevitable aging process.
