Bloom Brightening Essence
Step two in our Bloom by Young Living Brightening Skincare Collection is our new Brightening Essence. Never used an ‘essence’ before? You’re sure to fall in LOVE with this product. This light-liquid should be applied after your cleanser and before your moisturizer. It helps to balance and restore the natural pH level of your skin, which ultimately helps to support skin barrier function, reduces the appearance of pores, and helps to brighten and hydrate your skin. This product was developed to help address uneven skin that appears dull, and delivers by offering an instant radiant glow—with the help of one of its key ingredients!
At first glance, you will notice the Essence has a visible radiant but natural shimmer. This is thanks to the ethically sourced quartz crystalline Mica. Mica is a naturally occurring mineral that is found all over the world. It has been loved and used for years because of the natural instant shimmer it adds to the skin!
Madonna Lily Leaf Cell Extract is another important and beneficial ingredient to this formula. It helps to brighten the skin, prevent and decrease the appearance of dark spots, and contributes to a more uniform skin tone. What is Madonna Lilly Leaf Cell Extract? This unique ingredient is made using a unique biotechnological process that takes a piece of the Lily plant and cultures it to produce what is called a mother cell. The mother cell is then used to produce the active cells that are within the Lily plant. This process produces pure active ingredients that are free from any by-products and preserves the environment and biodiversity since only one sample is taken from the plant. Another amazing benefit of this process is that this technology uses sustainable energy and reduces the carbon footprint and requires less water than agriculture! So, not only does the Madonna Lily Cell Extract have incredible skin benefits, but the process we use to obtain this ingredient is sustainable and ecofriendly.
Apple Fruit Extract comes from the de-juiced apple pieces (commonly used for fruit juice) that are then used for extraction to create an apple extract. Apple Fruit Extract has been shown to increase the skins hydration by up to 88% as well as contribute to skin that overall feels smoother.
One of the last key ingredients is the green algae extract. This ingredient revitalizes and strengthens the skin while adding prebiotic benefits, providing balanced nutrition for the skin’s bacteria; and has been shown to decrease excess oil. It also helps to maintain a healthy skin microbiome.
How do you use Bloom Essence? Gently shake the bottle before use. Pour a quarter-sized amount into the palm of your hand and lightly press your hands into the center of your face moving outward. Don’t forget to include your neck and décolletage!
