My current anti-acne product obsession!

At one point in my skincare regime, I was a HUGE fan of Retin-A. It sent my adult acne bye-bye and I viewed the anti-aging benefits as icing on the cake. I was so hooked on the miracle topical treatment that I brought back a boat load from vacation in China (It’s super cheap in China!)

Over the last  year I’ve been on the fence with  Retin-A. After a long streak of success, my skin slowly  started  to relapse and occasional zits began popping  up.  My Retin-A has been on the back burner for quite some time now.  In my head, I secretly go back and forth thinking of ways to reintroduce Retin-A into my regime. I’m sorry but I want those anti-aging  benefits, damn it!  

Everyone knows that Retinol is the ish. Retinol is proven to diminish fine lines and wrinkles, improve overall texture, and promote the renewal of skin cells. Retinol products tend to have fewer side effects than Retin-A (i.e. adverse reactions and extreme dryness).  

When I learned of Vitivia Pro Vitamin A15, I jumped at the opportunity to give it a try. Pro Vitamin A15 contains pure Vitamin A (Retinol) at .15%. The Vitivia representative who introduced me to the product said that her sister’s acne was so severe she was on Accutane. She switched from Accutane to Vitivia Pro Vitamin A15 and has had great success ever since. Seeing as my skin has recently decided to betray me and act a fool, I decided to give Vitivia a try.

Its been three weeks (night time usage) and Vitivia Pro Vitamin A15 gets two thumbs up from Ms ThisThatBeauty. Since starting Pro Vitamin A15 I have not experienced any new breakouts. When I started Pro Vitamin A15, I had one huge cyst like zit smack dab in the middle of two older cystic zits. The two older zits healed extremely dark and left behind gross unsightly blemishes (Thank God for Cinema Secrets 202-20). The newer cystic zit that was already formed and was treated with Pro Vitamin A15 healed much better than the two older zits. The newer zit is now completely healed and did not leave behind a dark blemish.  

WOW! This kind of result is a big deal for me. I have dark skin so my pimples tend to leave behind dark (almost black) spots that take FOREVER to fade. But with the help of  Vitivia Pro Vitamin A15, my pimple healed without leaving behind a dark little reminder. I’m hooked!

In just three weeks everything looks great. The one cystic pimple I had has healed beautifully without leaving a blemish. My skin did not purge when I started Pro Vitamin A15. I love the idea of a gentle Retinol product that tames my nasty adult acne while delivering powerful anti aging benefits. Its like Christmas in July…a girl can’t ask for much more!  

Vitivia’s Pro:Vitamin line combines pure concentrations of natural ingredients with the best of modern science. This formulation is then placed in individual biodegradable unit dose packaging insuring each application of Pro:Vitamin has never been exposed to light or air. As a  result, the concentration of the first  application is as pure and

stable as the last.

Vitivia’s topical Pro Vitamins offer pharmaceutical grade, pure concentrations, entirely free of chemical preservatives and fragrances in 100% biodegradeable capsules designed to maintain the purity and integrity of the vitamin concentration within.

I hear the Pro Vitamin C10 is amazing for hyper pigmentation…uh huh, yup…I’m all over it and will be reporting back soon!  But in the mean time and in between time, Pro Vitamin A15 is ThisThatBeauty approved!
