I’m always hearing about that mystical ‘glass skin’ phenomenon, but I’ve never been able to achieve it.
I thought that was something for the girls with a 10-step skincare routine, who never smoke or drink (yeah… neither) and drink three litres of water a day. Sorry, but I’m not ashamed to admit that I’m a little more crusty than that.
So fine, my nighttime skincare routine does involve double cleansing my face, but I usually leave it there, unless I’m testing a new toner that I just so happen to use, or I have a rare pimple.
And I know, I’m blessed: my skin is naturally pretty good, so I don’t have to do much to it.
But I’m not quite the famous flawless glazed donut-esque look – or at least, I wasn’t, until I tried a new product that changed everything.
I’m not a hermit, so of course I’d seen Biodance’s viral Collagen Peptide Jelly Serum Facial Mist all over my social media.
But, being the sucker for pink that I am, after taking a proper look at its bottle (doesn’t it look like a beautiful old fashioned perfume bottle?!) I decided I’d better give it a go.
The serum comes in a ‘jelly-to-mist’ format, and if you’re anything like me you’ll be wondering what the hell that means, but it’s actually much simpler than it sounds.
You spray the serum straight from the bottle on to your face, like one of those water cooling things you use during a heatwave, and the serum will instantly set into a jelly-like texture on your skin.
I have to say, at first I was a little dubious about whether I liked that particular tacky texture, mostly because I thought it would make my fringe greasy overnight.
But TBH that didn’t really matter because I knocked out immediately after using it (unrelated to the product, I was just tired x).
When I woke up in the morning, I learned a whole new meaning of beauty sleep. As in, I actually had it for the first time, because the first thing I saw when I looked in the mirror was how GLOWING my skin was.
It looked like I had filler overnight – and I’m 26, so it’s not like I’ve ever considered I need it, but if it has the same effects as this serum then hello (I’m kidding).
Not only did my overall skin texture look smoother (and dare I say, glassy?) but my face also somehow looked plumper.
I’m going to be totally honest and say I never actually know what skincare ingredients do, but after actually doing my research I learned that that is as Biodance intended.
It’s loaded with Collagen 10-Peptide Complex, which supposedly penetrates deep into the skin to improve the appearance of fine lines – and girl did she deliver.
The whole of the next day, my skin looked and felt so much more radiant than normal, and I honestly could’ve gone without my usual morning application of serum and moisturiser. And that’s saying something, because I’m usually a dry-skinned gal.
Biodance claims that this serum gives you glass skin in three seconds, and I wholeheartedly believe them. It’s safe to say that I will be using this every night for the rest of my life, and the fact that the bottle looks completely adorable on my nightstand is a plus.
