Often, skincare is less about finding an individual product that targets a singular concern, and more about creating an elegant regimen where products work harmoniously together. Not only does this approach allow you to target several concerns in one fell swoop, but it encourages a self-care ritual that you can look forward to each morning and evening.
Today, we’re zeroing in on a KNESKO dynamic duo that both hydrates skin and boosts radiance: the luxurious Diamond Radiance Serum and Amethyst Hydrate Face Mask.
“Winter skin can look dull and dehydrated, and this pair works to alleviate the appearance and feel of both,” says Sydney Eger, lead esthetician and director of education for KNESKO Skin. “Rich hydrators combined with powerful brighteners makes this an exceptional choice for more radiant, plump. and supple skin.”
Keep reading to learn more about these two beloved KNESKO products and why using them together can heighten the benefits of each—especially during these notoriously cold and dry months.
Diamond Radiance Serum
- Visibly brightens and energizes skin
- Targets the look of discoloration and dullness
- Formulated with protective antioxidants
KNESKO’s Diamond Radiance Serum features genuine crushed diamonds to illuminate the skin alongside a powerful Advanced Brightening Complex that works overtime to improve the look of dull and uneven skin tone.
“The complex features ingredients such as ascorbyl glucoside—a next generation, super stable, time released vitamin C,” says Eger. “It also has active levels of arbutin, an ingredient known for minimizing the overproduction of melanin to improve the efficacy of other brighteners, like tranexamic acid and phyto-retinol bakuchiol,” explains Eger.
The serum also features niacinamide (vitamin B3), which is known to help promote a visibly clearer, brighter, and even complexion.
Amethyst Hydrate Mask
- Soothes dry, rough skin
- Intensely moisturizes
- Reveals a plump, youthful complexion
This luxurious natural collagen hydrogel mask is a treat for both your skin and senses. Along with premium hydrogel—which features a one-way delivery system to help maximize skincare benefits—it’s formulated with genuine amethyst powder and a host of nourishing, hydrating ingredients.
“The Amethyst Hydrate Face mask is exceptionally rich and hydrating to nourish dry, chapped, rough skin,” Eger says. “With nourishing ingredients such as squalane, meadowfoam seed oil, and sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid), this collection protects the skin with a veil of replenishing moisture.”
How to Pair KNESKO’s Diamond Serum & Amethyst Face Mask
As you can see, both products deliver in their own right. Together, though, they become a dynamic force to deliver radiant, hydrated, smooth-to-the-touch skin.
To enjoy the best results of this glow-boosting skincare routine, start with a clean face and then pat the Diamond Radiance Serum onto skin. Follow up with the Amethyst Hydrate Face Mask to help lock in the serum while delivering a major dose of moisture. You can finish with your preferred nighttime moisturizer for the ultimate winter skin evening ritual.
“This order works because the brightening ingredients in our gemstone serum formulation work best when unbuffered by richer moisturizers to assertively target uneven tone,” Eger explains. “If your skin tends toward sensitivity, you might want to reverse the order—Amethyst mask first, then Diamond serum—to soften the delivery of the brightening ingredients in the serum while still providing radiance boosting results.”
This ritual also benefits your overall wellbeing and helps balances emotions. Both Diamond and Amethyst are beloved for their ability to help balance the crown chakra.
