☃️ Winter is slowly but surely coming to Vancouver. How the skincare routine should be changed during the cold season?
Here are some essential tips:
1. Remove your make up with a cleansing oil (not soap or gel).
A lot of over the counter makeup removers are alcohol based and/or have a lot of detergents which can seriously dry out the skin. Instead, try a natural oil-based product, which will take off your makeup and nourish your skin in the process.
2. Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize.
Due to indoor heating, the skin feels much drier than usual. It removes moisture from the air, which lowers skin's resistance and makes surface cells dry out. The temperature might be quite comfortable, but dry, itchy skin will often follow. The outdoor absolute air humidity is low, which is again contributes to drying the skin.
3. Protect the skin with an appropriate product. Usually, the winter creams are much heavier than regular ones. If you are not comfortable with a greasy feeling, find the professional products which protect but have a nice melting texture.
Here is the example of the winter skincare routine:
🌼Cleansing Oil

💦Moisturizing Cream-Mask (for the evening)
https://www.lukshacosmetics.com/…/moisturizing-cream-with-h…
Intensive Brightening Serum with Vitamins C&E and Hyaluronic Acid (now enriched with Vitamin B5, ferulic acid, black pepper extract, and turmeric root extract).
This concentrated serum with hyaluronic acid, ferulic acid and 15% of pure vitamin C dramatically improves dull uneven skin complexion while visibly fading hyperpigmentation. In addition, due to the synergic effect of Vitamins C, E, and B5, the serum maintains healthy skin and significantly improves the appearance of wrinkles. Extracts from black pepper and turmeric root enhance the penetrations of Vitamins as well as their antioxidant effects. Ultra-light, oil-free formula absorbs within the few seconds; usually requires a cream on top (moisturizing or nourishing, depending on the skin type).
Even though we are always happy to run the Luksha Cosmetics business on our everyday pace, there is time to slow down, relax and to enjoy the summer. Please, note that the whole Luksha team will be on vacation from September 4 to 21st. Thus, we will not be able to process the online orders during this period. Sorry for any inconvenience.
Our future schedule on Granville Island Public Market:
August 25-28
September 29-30
October 6-7; 19-21
November 2-4; 16-18.
Great news - some new products will be launched on September-October period. Stay tuned and have a wonderful summer ☀️
Why is the skin sagging? It happens when the skin loses its polysaccharides (hyaluronic acid) and essential proteins such as collagen and elastin.
At a young age, the skin has the plentiful stores of collagen and elastin. With time, they begin to break down and the skin starts to look sunken, sallow, and discolored.
To restore the natural deposits of the skin`s proteins and make the complexion appear fuller and more resilient,
we use the most effective, clinically proven ingredients such as:
🌿 Matrixyl 3000 - an anti-aging peptide comprised of two proteins. It targets the sagging, wrinkled skin with discolorations and dryness. Matrixyl 3000 is mimicking the body’s natural peptides to signal that the skin needs more collagen and elastin. In this way, it actively stimulates fibroblasts to produce these two components. In addition, Matrixyl 3000 stimulates the production of hyaluronic acid as well, which helps the skin look fuller and younger.
As a result, the skin appears and feels much firmer and smoother to the touch. It also looks healthier and more vibrant because of the excellent moisturizing properties. Another benefit is that Matrixyl 3000 is completely safe to use on even the most sensitive skin.
☀️ Coenzyme Q10 - significantly increases the production of energy within cells. It penetrates deep into the skin and reduces the depth of wrinkles due to photoaging. Potent antioxidant.
🍋 Vitamin C - stimulates collagen production, clarifies and brightens the skin. Promotes a fine, and more even skin tone.
🌼 Vitamin E - fantastic antioxidant. It has an ability to penetrate into the deep layers of the skin and stimulate natural growth of collagen. As the result, it the skin has a firmer, plumper look.
🌱 Abyssinian Oil - great anti-aging product due to the excellent moisturizing and antioxidant properties. This oil adds luster to the tired and dull skin, giving it fresh and more youthful appearance.

All of us are familiar with Vitamin C. We know that it plays a crucial role in supporting the immune system, prevents scurvy, lowers the risk of some forms of heart diseases, and helps people with iron deficiency. Along with that, one of its most important roles is supporting the production of collagen. What is the collagen and how Vitamin C supports it?
Collagen is the most abundant protein in our connective tissue, which gives it the form and support. Collagen found in our skin, bones, teeth, internal organs, and cartilage. In the skin collagen plays a crucial role in keeping it firm and resilient, protecting it from early wrinkling.
Interacting with amino acids of collagen Vitamin C is able to add hydrogen and oxygen to them; thus, they may do their part in further collagen production. If the skin doesn`t get the proper amount of vitamin C, collagen production slows, which makes the skin more susceptible not only to wrinkles but also bruising.
On the contrary, receiving enough supplement of Vitamin C to the skin via food and skincare, the skin has a firmer and plumper look.
