I wrote a post last year about my love for BABOR, see the post here. As I approach 30 I’m more focused on my skincare regime than ever before, from the products I use externally, to what I consume internally such as collagen for added radiance.
There’s no better compliment than hearing ‘Your skin looks great’. BABOR has just launched a limited-edition range of ampoules. Each range caters to a different skin type and/or concern. Whatever your skincare concern is, BABOR has an ampoule for it. Why ampoules? Ampoules are highly concentrated active fluids that are individually portioned in luxurious glass ampoules to provide a VIP skincare experience for every skin type and condition – with an immediate effect. It’s 2018 and we need to see results now. Ampoules show results that you can see and feel immediately, and thanks to their hygienic individual packaging, no preservatives are needed. This also makes them perfect for travelling.
First of all, how beautiful is the packaging? It’s so stunning! I love skin care brands that have great packaging and are gorgeous to look at. There are six different types of ampoules available and each box has 7 ampoules in it. The ampoules are packed with natural ingredients such as hemp seed oil, cactus, algae extract and vitamins A and E. These all aid in revitalising your skin and giving it that boost of freshness. No more tired looking skin.
The Festival edition contains 7 ampoule treatment ranges which have been coordinated to meet a number of different skincare requirements. Each box contains 7 x 2ml ampoules, a 1-week treatment. No, you don’t have to use a box a week (although recommended). I use a box a month over 7 days, or a week prior to a special occasion, for those occasions where you need to steal the show. Like running into your ex at a mutual friends’ wedding. He must know, you’re not glowing because you’re pregnant. You’re glowing because you’re so happy that you’re not with him any more.
Moving swiftly along, let’s get into the range….
HYDRA GLOW (The Light Pink One)
Intensive Moisture and Radiance
Who doesn’t want to glow, like Jo Lo?! With a hyaluronic base (it’s pearl pink in colour!) your dry, thirsty skin is sure to soak up this moisture. This ampoule contains glow pigments (yessss baby, 2018 is so my year), which with regular use, will have your skin glowing like you’re auditioning as an extra for Jo Lo’s new glow campaign. This is an intensive treatment that provides the ultimate freshness boost and ensures you get that glow effect. The Hydra Plus ampoule supplies intensive moisture, while the Perfect Glow ampoule creates a younger-looking, radiant complexion. Any unevenness is visibly smoothed, giving the skin a fresh, natural appearance.

ENERGY LOAD (The Darker Pink One)
This one is for the over-achievers in the room! An active concentrate for stronger skin that is brimming with energy. Thanks to the perfectly dosed shot of vitamins A and E, Provitamin B5 and biotin combined with encapsulated oxygen, this ampoule treatment strengthens the skin’s barrier and has a revitalising effect.

CHILL OUT (The Green One)
Relaxation and Revitalization
This limited-edition treatment empowers your skin to regenerate itself and leaves it looking relaxed and radiant. The Chill-Out ampoules enclose the limited Hemp & Peace ampoule, which is the highlight of the Festival Edition. The unique combination of hemp seed oil, aloe vera, cactus and panthenol, regenerates stressed skin. This ampoule contains natural hemp seed oil, rich in omega 6 fatty acids, that will restore the skin’s barrier function which is often compromised by stress. No need to stress any more, your skin care concerns are sorted

OXY DETOX (The Blue One)
Vitality and Protection
Take a deep breath and live in the moment! An active treatment to revitalise the skin and shield it from environmental influences such as UV rays and pollution. The Algae Vitaliser ampoule supplies moisture and invigorates the skin, while the Oxygen Plus ampoule helps to protect the skin against environmental influences. Perfect for that big boardroom meeting that’s bound to stress you out a little bit. Never let your colleagues see you struggle. Always look like you’re flourishing.

LIFTING STAR (The Violet One)
You can either go for micro needling, or you can use this ampoule to look 18 years old again. P.S both are highly recommended. Wow, 2018 really is our year ladies. This product has been described as Botox in a bottle. I use it and continue to look like I’m 18 years old. This treatment is for skin in need of regeneration. It has an instant effect on fine lines and wrinkles. The 3D Firming ampoule has a smoothing effect and improves flexibility.
(7 x 2ml R655.00)

I’ve used the ‘Lifting Star’, and ‘Hydra Glow’. The scents are stunning, yet gentle and calming. Each box comes with an ampoule opener to help you break the top and release the goodness.
Now that you ahve the recipe for great skin, go forth and conquor ladies!
