I’ve been trying two products from the Chella line: the Intensive Formula Eye Crema and the Skin Firming Serum. These products are packed with ingredients including amino acids to increase collagen formation, hyaluronic acid for moisturizing, antioxidants, vitamins, and botanicals including butcher’s broom, calendula, horse chestnut, green tea, and pomegranate extracts. Well, something in them IS working!
Yesterday I received a wonderful compliment on my skin. Sitting next to my mother at lunch, she commented that my skin looked so smooth with no visible pores (leave it to your mother to give you all the details). I don’t think I’ve been complimented on my skin in my whole life.
You’re supposed to use the products twice a day, however I find that my silicone-based foundation makes the products rub off in the daytime, so I only use them at night. Still, I’ve gotten great results.
I’ve also tried the Talika hand ritual kit. This kit includes a sugar and salt exfoliator with vitamin C and apricot kernel oil and a skin serum with seaweed extract and orange oil. These products are supposed to smooth, brighten age spots, and protect your skin. I really didn’t expect much. My hands aren’t rough and I didn’t see the need to exfoliate.
I was pleasantly surprised to find my hands really looked and felt better after using them… much smoother and softer. I really liked that the exfoliating scrub completely dissolved (some products leave grit behind).

Thank you for the awesome review! We have had some customers who use the Serum notice a bit of trouble with their make-up rolling or pilling after using the Chella Skin Firming Serum, as well. We suggest that after using the Serum and applying your moisturizer, to wait until the moisturizer has fully penetrated your skin and then apply your make-up. This will help tremendously with the flaking affect (I personally had to experiment with the Serum when using it at the corners of my eyes as I tend to try to "slather" those fine lines away…the result is a little Serum really does go a long way !!)

Just looking around for information on specific anti aging products and methodology; I think it’s important that people are aware of all the different methods that they can use to revitalise their skin and their current look.
Wonderful blog.. I will take a good amout of time to think about the story!
