Beauty Review: Vine Vera Red Wine Skincare- Foot Cream with Resveratrol

Image via 123rf.com

Now instead of just drinking Red Wine for health benefits such as unclogging of the arteries- now you can toast to amazing, anti-aged skin as well.

WHAT? Did you hear that right? Well, certainly my dear- you did! The Resveratrol that is found in Red Wine- (the skin of the grape is put back into making the red wine creating the resveratrol) has been found MEDICALLY to help you AND your skin because it is a known antioxidant! WOW.

It’s summertime and who wants hard, crusty leftover winter feet? Definitely not me. There hasn’t been too many hot days here in Kentucky yet! It’s been more of a rainy season then anything, so I am DEFINITELY ready for the sandals and flip flops to be brought out!

Vine Vera has an amazing Red Wine skin care collection that of course contains Resveratrol! They have tons of different collections based on the different types of Red Wine.

I was excited to try the Foot Cream with Resveratrol. Since back in the winter, I’ve had some very bad dry feet. I was basically pulling my socks off every couple of hours and rubbing lotion on them because the dryness was creeping me out.

I was using tons of regular lotions, extra strength lotions, foot scrubs, foot lotions, etc. Nothing seemed to help. It would ease the dryness for a little while, and then BAM- I could feel the dryness creeping it’s way back in.

I noticed it was getting even worse after getting out of the tanning bed! I would have to slather my feet with lotion before putting my socks and shoes back on. I was getting hardened skin on the sides of my feet and around my toes. It was pretty gross.

Now that summer’s here, I don’t want to be walking around in sandals and have that dryness peaking out at everyone. I wanted something that was going to help for MORE than just an hour. I wanted something I didn’t have to reapply all the time.

This says to apply daily, but when it first came in the mail I was using it about twice a day. I’d put it on after the tanning bed and after my nightly shower/bath.

I was excited to see drastic changes just within the first couple of days. I was soaking my feet in extremely hot water, scrubbing the dryness off with a foot buffer and then applying this. My feet looked 10x better, much to my appreciation!! Smile

This is thicker than most foot lotions and creams on the market, so it stays put for a longer period of time. It instantly softens the skin, and makes it SO silky. The cream is rich and luxurious and smells incredible. Unlike the other foot creams and lotions that mostly smell like INTENSE peppermint—this smells earthy and relaxing (like wine).

This isn’t greasy and doesn’t leave an oily residue. I can put this on and instantly walk around in my sandals without slipping and sliding. Because it doesn’t have an intense “MINT” smell, I can wear this during the day—which is a HUGE plus!

The dryness stays gone until I use it again. Not only does it help soften the skin, dryness, and cracked sides of my feet. IT helps to HEAL it, so you’re getting help with the issue instead of something that just masks it.

Vine Vera Red Wine Skin Care: Resveratrol Dark Circle Eye Cream Review

image
I love watching Dr. Oz. It’s an amazing way to learn how to be healthy, the do’s and don’ts of many things, and HOW certain things are good for you and why they help.
Recently I’d seen the episode of Red Wine in skincare and HOW beneficial it is for your skin. The reason Red Wine is so beneficial is 1. The alcohol and 2. The resveratrol.

The resveratrol is a powerful antioxidant that is produced from the skin of grapes. You can only get this antioxidant from red wine, because the vintners put the grape skins back into the red wine to make it, but NOT white wine.

The resveratrol actually helps your skin from aging by turns on a system in your body to prevent it. BUT 80% of the benefit from Red Wine in skincare is actually the alcohol and the other 20% from resveratrol. Dr. Oz KNOWS what he’s talking about, so I listen.

When I got a chance to review 2 items from the Vine Vera skincare line, I was jumping through the roof! OF COURSE, I would be- who doesn’t want beautiful skin?

I ended up choosing the Resveratrol Dark Circle Eye Cream, which I will tell you about first. “This cream will immediately reduce the appearance of dark circles and puffy eyes.”
Directions: Gently apply cream to area under eyes and along orbital bone using ring finger. Use daily for optimal results.

The Vine Vera Resveratrol Dark Circle Eye Cream comes in an amazing brown/white box that has a magnetic closure on the front. I love that! I can take the eye cream out of the box and use the box for something else!

I am a mom, so of course I have dark circles under my eyes. I have probably since the day since my son was born, and they probably got darker when I had my daughter. Having kids means you juggle the kids, cleaning the house, work, laundry, and a million other things!
This can make me extremely exhausted very quickly! I work from home, so I have to basically wait until they are asleep to start working. This means long nights and early mornings which adds to the puffiness.

I’ve tried many other dark circle treatments and they didn’t work out so well for me. I had to end up hiding them with a concealer before putting my makeup on. I wouldn’t even wear makeup most of the time in the summer if it weren’t for the dark circles. Who wants to have to check to see if they’ve sweated their makeup off every 20 minutes? I sure don’t!

The skin under our eyes is basically the thinnest skin on our body. It all those sleepless hours, all that exhaustion, and if you are dehydrated? It’ll show that as well. Who wants to wear THAT darkness all day?
WP_002363
I love that this is like a metallic copper looking color. Just the packaging is refreshing and unique. It has a screw on top, which is awesome for me because if we go somewhere over night- THIS will come with me and I know it won’t spill out in my overnight bag.

I’ve been very religious applying this under my eyes twice a day since I’ve gotten it. I put it on before I go out in the morning after I wash my face, and then again at night after my cleansing ritual and before my night cream!

The resveratrol helps to reduce inflammation, to prevent damage to blood vessels, and help keep blood clots at bay. This stay up late, get up early mom can use all the help she can get with puffy inflated, dark circles, and under eye bags.

I love when caps like these are put over a skincare product, It keeps the skincare from getting everywhere and creating a mess. It also keeps the insides from getting on top of the lid, which means there is more to use!
WP_002365
When I opened the eye cream, it looked like this. A pale tinted copper/light brown lotion like cream. It is very rich, creamy, and luxurious. It feels so silky when I rub it under my eyes, and the coolness of the cream immediately makes it feel like the inflammation and puffiness has gone down.

It smells incredible too. Have you ever just been sitting at home with your feet kicked up, had a really good book to read and a glass of red wine in your hand? Relaxation at it’s best huh? YES! Well imagine swirling the glass of red wine and taking a sniff before you take a sip. That’s exactly what this smells like!
WP_002366
The best part about it is that it only takes mere seconds to put this on. The amount on my fingertip in the picture is enough for both eyes. I’ve also been putting this above my eyes as well as beneath!
I noticed the next morning when I woke up and got out of the shower that YES! The dark circles did look like they weren’t as visible as they were the night before, and my eyes didn’t seem so puffy.
WP_001916
I wasn’t expecting a MIRACLE- where the black circles would be gone the very next day.. but this really surprised me. I couldn’t believe how much of the inflammation was gone. The inflammation is what was making it look SO much worse. The blackness was subsiding little by little with each use.

Within the same week, I was able to have a date night with my hubs without having to pack on the concealer and then makeup on top of it. I feel beautiful- naturally! Which felt so calming and amazing! Smile No more covering it up! I just wore my regular date night makeup and was done with it!
