Let’s face it, our daily lives are filled with urban and environmental stress that negatively impacts our skin health. From the food, water and the very air that we breathe – our skin is exposed to a plethora of toxins. Over time, this causes cellular toxicity which leads to the cells producing harmful chemicals that inhibits cell rejuvenation, thereby causing one to prematurely age.

Enter two new facial essences by Swiss line to combat the ravages of premature aging and effects of urban stress:

Swiss line Cell Shock Facial Boosting-Essence

Swiss line’s clinically-proven formula in the form of a facial essence can help solve the “urban stress” problem. This innovative concept resulted in an essence that provides daily protection to skin from pollution and stress, while boosting the skin’s own detoxing capabilities.

Formulated with specific protein fractions from Moringa seeds to shield the skin from environmental pollution, and also a Nasturtium stem extract to promote the role of cytoglobin as an oxygen carrier, facilitating intercellular exchange and diffusing toxicity.

This product smells great – a subtle floral scent – and keeps the skin moist and supple, while preventing pollution from adhering to it. It retails for RM468 in a 150ml glass bottle.

Swiss line Cell Shock Facial Facial Brightening-Essence

Want a bright splash of energetic coolness with exfoliating and brightening agents? Look no further than the Swiss line Cell Shock Facial Facial Brightening-Essence. It addresses the signs of pigmentation and uneven skin texture, while promoting optimal skin exfoliation and renewal.

It contains the AHA Botanical Blend, Aura-Light Cellular Culture and Ocean-Matrix Water. It retails for RM488 in a 150ml glass bottle.

Both essences are recommended for all skin types but are especially ideal for aging skin. They do not replace the need for toners, though.

When & How to Apply

Barbara Iacobucci, International Training Manager of Swiss line and Yip Wei Yin, COO of Cheerful Marketing at the Swiss line Cell Shock Facial Essence Launch

Barbara Iacobucci, International Training Manager of Swiss line recommends that you use the Swiss line Cell Shock Facial Boosting-Essence in the day to prevent environmental pollution from adhering to the skin, and the Swiss line Cell Shock Facial Facial Brightening-Essence to plump, rejuvenate and brighten the skin at night while you sleep.

The latter has a heavier essence-in-lotion texture with the smell of the ocean. We could visibly see a brightening effect on our skin upon application, too. Best of all, you can just apply it on your palm and smooth over the face and neck avoiding the eye area — there’s no need to apply with a cotton pad. How lovely is that!

The Swiss line products are available at over 50 Cheerful Beautique member beauty salons nationwide in Malaysia, including Energy Day Spa at Great Eastern Mall (Ampang).
