DERMA E: Same Great Formula with Fresh Packaging

Today, I have an exciting review for you. DERMA E has been producing high quality skincare products since 1984, with 100% vegan, cruelty-free formulas that do not contain parabens, sodium lauryl sulfates, petrolatum, mineral oil, artificial colors, gluten, soy or GMOs. I don't know about you, but that sounds like an all-around great line of products to me!

DERMA E came out with a new line of packaging in September 2016. By March 2017, the new packaging design will be in all of DERMA E's retail stores, including Whole Foods, Sprouts, Ulta Beauty and more, with 100% of their line in the new design. 

I was lucky enough to see the new packaging in person, on two of the products in their popular hydrating line: the Hydrating Day Creme in the old packaging and the Hydrating Night Cream in the new packaging. 

On the left is the old packaging, and on the right is the new packaging.

The best part about this packaging roll-out is that DERMA E is keeping the same formula I know, trust and love. DERMA E's eco-ethical formulas remain the same in their fresh new digs, which is a win-win in my book.

This new packaging look is such a fresh change, yet still keeps the DERMA E's unique touch as a brand, as well as the simple lotus design. I love the sophisticated, no-frills, neutral appearance of the new packaging; it looks beautiful on your bathroom counter or vanity. I also love that you can see through the frosted glass jar so you know how much you've used.

Not only has DERMA E switched up the look of their product packaging, they have also done an overarching rebranding based on the brand's heritage, mission and values. Check out their updated website, which beautifully complements the packaging rebranding.

I'm very impressed with DERMA E's decision to rebrand and the way it has been excuted. The simple, clean branding that DERMA E has adopted is gorgeous and eye-catching. Have you seen the new DERMA E packaging at stores near you? Let me know what you think!

REVIEW: Valentia Night Revive Retinol Serum

As you know by reading Urban Mannequin, I am a huge fan of Valentia skincare. I recently got the opportunity to try the Night Revive Retinol Serum, one of the brand's newest products, which is a transformative retinol serum that works to prevent wrinkles, increase hydration, and rejuvenate your skin.

This serum is the perfect addition to my nightly skincare routine due to its anti-aging benefits and quality ingredients. My favorite features of this product are that it stimulates collagen, improves skin tone, and conditions your skin using the following key ingredients:

• Retinol (Vitamin A): This ingredient starts at the cellular level to fight winkles, control acne, and even out hyperpigmentation.
• Vitamin C: This anti-aging vitamin protects your skin against environmental elements to prevent premature wrinkles.
• Vitamin E: Another amazing vitamin that provides intense hydration to decrease the drying nature of retinol.
• Squalane: This hydrating ingredient is derived from olive oil to moisturize and condition sensitive skin.
  

I highly recommend this product if you are looking for a new serum for your nighttime skincare routine. It feels luxurious on the skin and I love the results! You can try out Valentia's Night Revive Retinol Serum by clicking here. You can also check them out on Facebook and on Instagram.
