For the past 3 weeks, I’ve been using Introstem Skincare Products, Introstem is a luxury skin care line that is infused with hemp oil and grape stem cell extract. I have been very excited to share my experience!

About Introstem

Instrostem is a luxury skin care line that takes a different approach to beauty by featuring unique ingredients like grape stem cell extract and hemp seed oil to help protect the skin's natural barrier. Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil is harvested by cold-pressing hemp seeds. It helps moderates oil production, moisturizes and soothes Inflammation, strengthens skin cell Integrity and response and has anti-aging properties. The grape is proven to contain anti-aging properties specifically found in the seed and skin and grape seed cells aid the skin in protecting itself from free radicals produced by harmful UV rays via sun exposure.

My review of Introstem Products

So, a little bit about my skin and skin concerns. I have issues with dry skin, dull skin and uneven skin tone. Plus, I am prone to hormonal breakouts. I love skincare that provides anti-aging protection since I am in my 40s.

The first thing I noticed about Introstem was the packaging. It’s very luxurious and it’s also very sleek. I’m doing a lot of traveling over the summer and I love light-weight toiletries for travel.

I used the products for 3 weeks. The Stem Cell Vitamin C Serum and the Firming Eye Cream at night and the Lumi-Cell Overnight Mask once per week, as suggested. I used The Stem Cell Vitamin C Serum every night before bed and applied it to my clean face and décolletage. I also used the serum with a jade face roller just because I love the way it feels on my skin and is great for improving circulation. I then applied the Stem Cell Firming Eye Cream to my under eye area every night. It’s very important to use a finger to very gently pat the skin under the eye. Do not pull or tug.

Both the serum and the eye cream. After three weeks of use, I noticed smoother, firmer skin, brightening under the eye and I noticed I had to use so much less concealer. My skin looked and felt hydrated and soft, rather than dry and dull.

The Lumi-Cell Overnight mask is my absolute favorite product of them all. To use, you just apply on your clean, dry skin at bedtime and allow it to dry. You only use this mask once a week. It feels very luxe, hydrating and like silk on my skin – no greasy feel at all. Every time I used the mask before bed, I woke up looking like I just had a facial. It’s very hydrating and it makes my skin glow! It is absolutely worth every single penny.

I just realized Introstem has body care items, so I think that will be my next purchase.
