THALGO, for those unfamiliar with this spa brand, is inspired by thalassotherapy spa treatments that use real seawater and seaweed to effectively treat a range of skin conditions. The brand harnesses these extraordinary benefits in its range of spa treatments and skincare products. For more than 50 years, THALGO has explored the sea depths and identified specific seaweeds with anti-aging, slimming, detoxifying, rebalancing, hydrating and soothing properties. THALGO continuously reinforces its environmentally friendly practices by advocating the protection of marine environments by supporting the Marine Conservation Society. All the brands new formulas are free of parabens, mineral oil, propylene glycol, GMO’s, and ingredients of animal origin.
Today I’m chatting about two products from THALGO – one that boosts skins radiance and clarity, the other – a body treatment – works to firm skin on the tummy and waist.
First up is the THALGO DÉFI FERMENTÉ Stomach & Waist Sculptor (R900 for a 150ml). This cream works to firm the deeper layers of the skin on the stomach and waist. It has a wonderfully light texture and subtle, comforting scent.
Its active ingredients include Zingiber extract (ginger), which works to significantly reduce the volume of the abdominal area (potential loss of up to 4 cm on the stomach), while helping prevent reoccurrence.
However, if you really want to see this creams benefits, it’s essential to use the correct massage method.
Apply the cream to the stomach area, waist and hips using your fingers in a circular massage movement. Next, using a deep, downward gliding movement, continue to work the cream into the areas. Finish off with kneading movements, then deep gliding movement again, until the product is fully absorbed.
I also reckon that to achieve optimum results with this product, you should be exercising and following a healthy, low carb diet.
Next is a booster for anyone with dull, tired looking skin looking to boost the skin’s radiance. The Source Marine Absolute Radiance Concentrate (R621 for a pack of 7 ampoules) corrects all visible signs of dull, tired skin. The formula combines the detoxifying power of Lumisource, a trio of brightening acids (malic, citric & glycolic) and a complexion enhancing active ingredient to restore radiance and an even tone to the complexion. Use an ampoule when your skin is lackluster by applying the formula over the entire face, neck and décolletage. You could also use the ampoules (there are 7 in a pack) as a 7-day treatment. Now, 1 x ampoule = 2 applications (day & night) and they come with a re-positionable cap. Apply morning and evening over entire face, neck and décolletage.
