Skin science: Trying out U Beauty skincare
I love trying out new skincare lines. Even better if they are of the prestige variety.
I had never heard of U Beauty until last week when they got in touch to send over their newest product, the Multimodal Defender Broad Spectrum SPF 30 moisturizer. I was instantly intrigued about the product since I like the idea of a moisturizer with sunscreen and then when I learned that you can find the line at Holt Renfrew and SSENSE, well, that definitely perked my interest.
U Beauty is a skincare line that is technology-driven, science-proven, and has high-performing products. Their award-winning skincare products allows you to do more with less and the idea is that you can cut down on the amount of products in your routine. Now, you guys know I proudly boast an eight-step routine, but I have to say that sometimes the thought of doing it is so challenging. Sometimes I just want to cleanse my face, apply a moisturizer and then be done with it, you know? Well, I think that’s where this line comes in.
So starting with their newest product, the Multimodal Defender Broad Spectrum SPF 30 moisturizer (C$168 at Holt Renfrew) is a skincare treatment that improves skin, as well as restores discolouration. This product also helps to brighten and illuminate skin and reduces the appearance of existing hyperpigmentation, sunspots, discolouration, and mottled complexions.
The moisturizer contains a unique formula, including the SIREN Capsule Technology, which are microscopic molecules that mimic the properties that naturally appear in healthy skin. These molecules are designed to lure free radicals to it, similar to a magnet. The SIREN technology activates on top of areas where free radicals accumulate, so this ensures that whatever is inside it releases where the skin is frail and in need of visible rejuvenation. As a result, fine lines, wrinkles, and redness is diminished, and visible puffiness, uneven tone, and texture are improved. It also helps with smoothing skin and making it brighter and better.
Now this moisturizer pairs the brand’s SIREN technology with its new SUN-SIREN, which is the new groundbreaking molecule that safely inhibits a key enzyme that is responsible for melanin synthesis while also offering photo-protective properties. It helps to prevent discolouration before it happens. The formula also includes broad-spectrum SPF protection against UVA, UVB, infrared, and blue light rays. Finally, it also contains Vitamins C and E to promote normal cell turnover and functioning, calms skin appearance, and visibly increases collagen; as well as zinc oxide to cool skin by promoting healthy skin vascularity and works as a blocker to UVA, UVB, IR, and HEV light.
Another star product I was excited to try out by the line is the U Beauty Resurfacing Compound (C$295 at SSENSE). This serum visibly improves skin’s appearance in just three to six days and is said to replace up to six products in your skincare routine.
This serum helps to brighten, resurface, renew, tighten, equalize, and defend. It is a clean and high-performance formula that is designed to optimize your skincare routine and will leave you with smoother, brighter, and revitalized-looking skin, which you should notice in as little as three to six days. It also helps with making pores look smaller, skin look brighter, and fine lines and wrinkles will visibly fade.
This compound has the brand’s SIREN capsule technology as well that lures free radicals to it like a magnet. U Beauty says to apply this after your cleanser, followed up by your favourite moisturizer and then a sunscreen for the day (or pair it with the Multimodal Defender Broad Spectrum SPF 30).
For those who are looking for more hydration, take a look at the U Beauty Super Hydrator (C$218 at Holt Renfrew), which delivers a big dose of moisture to the skin, keeping it hydrated for up to 48 hours.
This moisturizer has their HYDRA-SIREN Capsule technology, which delivers long-chain hyaluronic acid to the skin. This technology penetrates the skin, reaching the deepest layers to hydrate all day long, while free radicals rise. With regular use you will notice visible skin repair, as well as anti-aging results, leaving your skin glowing and more hydrated.
This moisturizer is also great paired with the Resurfacing Compound for the ultimate skincare routine.
Now the last product is a little difference but something that i don’t really have in my routine already. The SCULPT Arm Compound (C$125 at SSENSE) is a treatment that helps to strengthen the skin’s appearance while also visibly contouring the arm area.
Apply a pump of this product to each arm, massaging it in an upwards motion. It also has the brand’s SIREN Capsule technology to deliver the look of contoured skin. It also has fermented soybean, probiotics, and key marine extract, which is derived via a rare oceanic sponge, to deliver oxygen and nutrient supply to skin. It also has stabilized Vitamin C to hydrate skin, as well as probiotics and antioxidants to promote balance and the colonization of healthy bacteria.
This cream is also great for sagging for crepey skin, as it will help to smooth the appearance of skin and make it look tighter and toned.
I just received these products so I’m really excited to fully dive in and use them and see how my skin transforms.
