Revisiting an Old Friend: Colbert MD Intensify Facial Disks

Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

Five years ago I fell head-over-heels in love with Colbert MD skincare, and while I have loved many other brands since then, I keep returning to this wonderful line of dermatologist created products. From the first moment that I tried the Colbert MD Intensify Facial Disks, I was hooked– and that love persists unabated.

One of the key components to healthy luminous skin is the requisite amount of exfoliation. Too little and skin looks dull and listless, too much and skin becomes damaged and traumatized. Ideally, using an effective exfoliator on a weekly basis and judiciously using (and reapplying) an SPF 30 or higher will go a long way to maintaining healthy skin and the highly sought after youthful radiance.

I have regularly used various types of facial exfoliating pads for many years, and have to confess that my experience with Colbert MD Intensify Facial Disks was a real game changer for me all of those years ago. While most of the solution soaked exfoliating pads that I have used are thin and double sided, Colbert MD has reimagined its form and instead has opted for a very plush and thick single sided pad. The generously saturated pre-moistened disks include a small tab on the back that makes holding the disk easy, and allows one to maintain effortless control.

The combination of the mild microdermabrasion action from the surface of the pad coupled with the enzyme action of the solution immediately and effectively encourages cell turnover that aids in the promotion of collagen production. Skin, unobstructed by a proliferation of dead skin cells, is then able to effortlessly and effectively absorb skincare products. The end result is unbelievably soft, smooth, supple and luminous skin.

According to Colbert MD,

Plush, pre-moistened exfoliating discs encourage cell renewal and enhance the effectiveness of Colbert MD’s daily products.

With gentle microdermabrasion, Intensify Facial Discs assist in skin’s natural repair process by removing dead cells and providing a fresh new luminosity.

Apply to a clean, damp face in a gentle, circular motion, continuing for 30 to 60 seconds. Rinse immediately with water. Follow with Stimulate The Serum. Use morning or night, one to three times a week, as recommended for skin type.

*Intensify Facial Discs have been specially formulated for use one to three times a week, depending on skin type. Delicate skin use once a week or bi-weekly, as tolerated.

Key Ingredients:

Bromelain:A concentrated form of pineapple enzyme that eliminates dull skin, dryness and environmental toxins.

Lactic Acid: A gentle natural exfoliant that reduces fine lines, wrinkles, age spots and hyper-pigmentation.

Glucosamine: Increases production of hyaluronic acid, leading to better hydrated, “plumper” and more youthful skin.

Ingredients: Aqua, Glycerin, Decyl Glucoside, Bromelain, Allantoin, Acetyl Glucosamine, Gluconolactone, Chlorhexidine Digluconate, Potassium Sorbate, Phenoxyethanol, Parfum.

RINSE THOROUGHLY WITH WATER. AVOID EYE AREA. DO NOT USE ON IRRITATED OR DAMAGED SKIN. DISCONTINUE USE IF PROLONGED SKIN IRRITATION OCCURS.

Overall Assessment: Colbert MD Intensify Facial Disks offer very effective at-home mild microdermabrasion treatment with noticeable results. The innovative user-friendly design ensures efficacy and control over the disks themselves, and this makes using them truly effortless.

Elina Organics Crushed Copper Purifying Mask

Press Sample (Unaffiliated Links)

Elina Organics Crushed Copper Purifying Mask is not only 100% organic and cruelty-free, but it is also a very effective handmade purifying mask that has healing and antiseptic properties to fight breakouts. Founder, cosmetic chemist and celebrity esthetician, Elina Fedotova, asserts, “Copper has a strong antibacterial effect and it helps to fight acne causing bacteria. It also has anti-fungal and anti-viral properties which makes it wonderful for preventing break outs. It is proven to firm the skin by stimulating collagen regeneration which makes it wonderful to fight signs of aging. Copper powder also helps to gently polish skin to create immediate glow.”

Simply apply this mask, which is thinner in its consistency than expected, and massage it into the congested area for about a minute, and then leave it on for about 10 minutes and then rinse. It has a wonderful cooling effect on the skin as it dries down, and no artificial fragrances whatsoever. However, there is a light aroma that is informed by the natural ingredients and essential oils, but it isn't in the least bit overpowering.

While I have normal/combination skin, I seldom have breakouts, but during the pandemic I have had more than usual. The amount of time that I spend at the computer has increased multifold since I have been working from home, and between the stress of what is happening in the world, and the fact that I have caught myself in Zoom meetings with my head resting on my hand, I have noticed some breakouts on my chin. This mask has very effectively zapped those zits, and I highly recommend it if you are having bouts of acne, hormonal breakouts or the periodic pimple.

According to Elina Organics,

This deeply purifying mask contains the star ingredient Copper Powder, which is with pathogen fighting and skin-renewing. In addition to its powerful antiseptic and healing properties, Copper helps to firm and rebuild the skin by stimulating the regeneration of proteins.

The mask also contains Activated Charcoal with Kaolin Clay. They work together like a magnet to draw out impurities and toxins from your pores. The formula is enhanced with the addition of Fulvic Acid. It helps to reduce scarring and discolorations with an essential blend of trace minerals and electrolytes. Fulvic Acid also improves your skin’s protective barrier, will balance your microbiome, and helps to prevent future breakouts. Finally, Diatomaceous Earth nourishes, polishes, and detoxifies your skin with a synergistic blend of nutrients.

Directions:  Apply on  clean moist skin  and massage with circular motions, especially over congested areas for 1 minute. Leave on for 8-10 minutes and rinse off.
