There are three skincare details when it comes to looking young: eyes, neck, and hands. Fine lines in these area creep upon you without noticing. My problem has always been fine lines under the inner corner of my eyes. My allergies and lack of sleep also leads to dark circles that I need to cover up. I don't wear foundation, just concealer for my dark circles. But no matter how thin the layer of make up is, the fine lines lead to unevenness and cracks. If I sleep too late, my aegyo-sal turns into eye bags, which is very troubling. Since I have sensitive skin, especially around my eyes, I was never able to find a suitable eye cream. The lighter ones are not nourishing enough, and the oily ones are too heavy and lead to tiny granulations.

I recently tried the Resveratrol Chianti Age Correcting Syringe from Vine Vera and it improved the skin around my eyes so rapidly that I have to share it! I have, sadly, given mine to Ares, but if I can get him on board for any kind of skincare, I'm happy.

Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Age Correcting Syringe–Packaging

Shallow as I am, we have to start with the beautiful packaging. The burgundy box has silver characters hot-stamped onto it, which looks extravagant and elegant. The product is packaged in a syringe so that you can conveniently push out just a little each time. The syringe itself is also burgundy with white hot-stamped characters. The material of the hub and plunger are both reflective, giving it a metallic looks. It's so delicate and serves as a decoration on my makeup counter as well. I don't think I'd be able to dispose of it once I am finish the product.

Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Age Correcting Syringe–Usage

It says on the box to use it just 1–3 times a week. Because it has really strong repairing properties, you don't really have to use it so often. The texture is nourishing but not too heavy. At first, I pushed out a few dots under my eyes and massaged it in. But I later realized that product about the size of a single grain of rice was enough to work through both of my eyes. So you really don't have to use up too much at once. When you are done, make sure that you clean the tip of the syringe and place the plug back in before putting on the cap so that the product doesn't dry out or clog up.

After I remove my make up and cleanse my face, I would apply a bit of hyaluronic acid toner and wait for it to completely absorb. Then 10–20 minutes later, I would use Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Age Correcting Syringe around my eyes and use a retinol cream on the rest of my face. Once everything is fully absorbed, I would apply a thin layer of moisturizer to lock everything in. For the first week, I used it every other day, which means 3 times a week, to quickly repair the visible fine lines, then I switched to once a week for maintenance–until I had to part with it when I gave it to Ares. When I am not using the Age Correcting Syringe, I use a night-time gel mask to retain moisture.

The morning after I first used this, I realized that it's much easier for me to apply makeup. I thought I was imagining it so I continued taking pictures to document the changes. The fine lines under my right eye has always been less serious than those under my left. The third time I used this, I noticed that the fine lines under my right eye has significantly lightened and became barely detectable! They have been so smoothened out that they did not effect my concealer at all. I was really excited and shared the pictures with my mom and her friends who were over. Since they are typical Asian moms, I can obviously do nothing that pleases them and they said "it has to be because you just applied it." Or dismissed me with "you are too young, it's not accurate at all." And rolled their eyes at me. I just want to put it out there that skincare is for all ages. It's called "anti-aging" you have to start preventing it when you are young, not expect it to reverse once you have aged because currently science does not support that possibility, okay? 10 days later when they came over again to exchange Chinese New Year presents they saw that the fine lines under my eyes were no longer visible and were all so shocked but too proud to admit.

Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Age Correcting Syringe–Apple Stem Cells

Using adult stem cells and embryonic stem cells in skin care is a concept that most people are familiar with. Stem cells are one of the very few cells found in organic tissue that can continue to divide and renew, so they are quite literally the fountain of youth. As we grow older, we have fewer and fewer stem cells, which slows down our cell repair and renewal, leading to aging and it presents itself as wrinkles and fine lines on our skin.

Apple stem cells are a type of adult stem cells. Unlike embryonic stem cells that can become anything, adult stem cells can only divide into and within the organ that it exists in. Apple stem cells are developed specifically for the rejuvenation of skin. They are all cultured from protocells extracted from Swiss apples. Plant stem cells are also safer than animal stem cells because there are no risks relating to infectious diseases or growth hormones.

Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Age Correcting Syringe–Acetyl Hexapeptide

Hexapeptide, as it's name suggests, only has a short chain of 6 amino acids. So they can be very easily absorbed and passes right through your stratum corneum (the outermost layer of the outermost layer of your skin, in regular human terms). Hexapeptide works like topical Botox (botulinum toxin) that isn't toxic. Through mimicking the amino acid sequence of neuron synapse, it stops neurons from connecting with each other. (In plain terms, it fools your nerve cells into thinking that they have already communicated with another nerve cell, therefore stopping them from connecting with each other which minimizes minor muscle movement that causes fine lines.) This type of peptide that affects neurotransmitters can quickly reduce fine lines, which is why I saw such quick and significant results with Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Age Correcting Syringe.

Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Age Correcting Syringe–Resveratrol

Resveratrol is a type of polyphenol with antioxidant potentials that can be found in a lot of natural foods, including grapes, cranberries, cocoa, etc. It is also why a lot of people tell you that drinking a glass of wine before bed is beneficial to your health. Most of Vine Vera's products contains resveratrol extracted from grape skin, hence the name and the logo, which is a glass of freshly poured red wine.

Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Age Correcting Syringe–Retinol

Retinol is a type of vitamin A which can improve the health of skin and mucosa. Retinol is the skincare holy grail that more and more people have become aware of in recent years. Every time I watch a blackhead extraction TikTok, dermatologists would say to "use salicylic acid for cleansing twice a week and retinol five times a week to prevent the build -up of sebaceous filaments." I've heard it so much that I've memorized it, am tired of it, and have decided to take the advice. Retinol also works wonders in anti-aging and removing fine lines, so it naturally cannot be missing from my eye cream.

Vine Vera Resveratrol Chianti Age Correcting Syringe–Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid is all about retaining moisture, if you have enough water in your skin cells, you will have that youthful glow and elasticity. Other than using topical hyaluronic acid, don't forget to take care of yourself from within as well! Skincare products is not all, don't forget to drink enough water so that your cells actually have something to retain. It would also greatly complement your skincare routine!
