AYVA Skincare is All About Melanin. Here’s Why | Product Review

Filed in: Beauty

In the past couple of months I have been dedicating 30 minutes or less each day to caring for my skin. This practice has made a major impact on my skin. I have seen drastic results in the texture, radiance, and softness of my skin. All it took was a solid skincare routine with the right products.

When I was a teen (Oh Man! I feel so old saying that) I used simple cleansers and coconut oil but quickly learned they were not enough to take my skin to the next level. A few months ago, I received an email about AVYA Skincare and was interested in their products because it was centered around melanin. Yes, you read that right. AVYA Skincare cares about melanin and protecting your skin.

Created by Deepika Vyas and Dr. Tanuj Nakra, AVYA Skincare is built on research and facts about skincare. When asked about the power of melanin Dr. Nakra says, “Our human biology responds dynamically to sun exposure. The skin cells arrange the melanin granules just above the cell nucleus, protecting our vital DNA just like a sunshade.”

AVYA Skincare sent me their product line and I started using them. I immediately fell in love. Here’s how AVYA Skincare takes care of your melanin:

AVYA Skincare contains Tumeric, Neem, and Peony. AVYA skincare’s products include these three key ingredients. They help enhance your complexion while giving you a radiant skin tone. These active botanicals protect and provide deep dermal penetration. You can even smell the peony in the Anti-Aging Serum.

“Dewy, even skin tone is prized 
by women of all cultures.”
– Tanuj Nakra, M.D

AVYA Skincare created a moisturizer with SPF. SPF is essential even for all skintones. My friend and notable photographer, Ashleigh @stayreddy is a skincare champ. She has amazing skin and pretty much taught me the majority of what I know about skincare. I asked her about my acne scars and how to get rid of them. Her suggestion was to use a moisturizer with SPF. And guess what? AVYA Skincare had one! I have used AVYA’s SPF moisturizer for several months now and love how it feels on my skin. My skin feels protected from the sun without the ugly white film from the SPF.

AVYA Skincare comes in travel size. AVYA skincare just released their products in travel size. Even when I am traveling I take my skincare with me but sometimes the products are more than 100mL so they aren’t travel friendly. Now, I can take my AVYA Skincare products with me through security and know my skin will get the nutrients it need anywhere in the world.

Since using AVYA Skincare, my skin confidence has gone up. I no longer grab concealer or foundation to cover up my skin. I don’t need it. I often get asked what makeup I use because my face looks flawless. My response?

It’s not my makeup, it’s my skin.

3 products you need from AVYA Skincare:

AVYA Skincare Anti-Aging Serum, $110

AVYA Skincare Gentle Non-Foaming Cleanser, $40

AVYA Skincare Eye Brightening Cream, $75
