C Forte
C Forte Morning Serum is packed with 16% L-ascorbic acid, the purest form of Vitamin C, combined with vitamin E and ferulic acid for maximum results. Vitamin C defends against sun damage by neutralising free radicals. It also boosts collagen, helps combat pigmentation by inhibiting tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production and it’s anti-inflammatory. The result? Brighter, firmer skin with fewer fine lines and less pigmentation. Formulated at the ideal pH (2.5-3.5) and housed in airless, opaque packaging, C Forte ensures stability and effectiveness, delivering radiant skin with every use.

Description
A powerful anti-oxidant serum that hydrates, repairs the visible signs of aging and protects the skin against further damage.
The Anti-oxidant Vitamins: C (L-Ascorbic Acid – 16%), E (Tocopherol – 1%) and Ferulic Acid (0.5%) combine in their most potent forms to repair and prevent the appearance of aging including fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation and skin roughness. For skin repair, protection and moisturising of dry and normal skin.
Vitamin C is a highly effective anti-oxidant with evidence for increasing collagen production, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, reducing pigmentation and sun damage. It is however naturally unstable. When Vitamin E is added, this helps stabilise Vitamin C and therefore increase its effectiveness. The addition of Ferulic acid (which is itself unstable) further stabilises the mix and increases its effectiveness. The possible downside of this last addition is the introduction of a scent (sometimes described as smoky). If you do smell it, it will pass quickly especially once another product (eg. sunscreen) is applied.
Full Size - 50ml(Lasts 3 - 4 months)
Travel Size - 15ml (Lasts 3 - 4 weeks)
Evidence
L-Ascorbic Acid
An anti-oxidant, effective improving protection from and repair of sun induced premature aging. It reduces wrinkles, fine lines, skin roughness and pigmentation. L-Ascorbic acid is naturally unstable and must be formulated in an oil base in order to delay oxidisation.
Vitamin E (α-Tocopherol)
Vitamin E is an antioxidant that inhibits damaging reactive oxygen species and has anti- inflammatory and wound healing benefits.
Emerging evidence
Ferulic Acid
Ferulic acid’s emerging evidence suggests it can stimulate more skin cells, fibroblasts, collagen and elastin, improve the effectiveness of Vitamin C and help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
Usage
Apply 1 – 2 pumps to fingertips and apply to face after cleansing in the morning. Also for use on décolletage, back of hands and forearms.

Rosacea Skincare Kit - Anti Redness
"I am so pleased with the progress my skin has made. Due to health reasons I have never been able to treat my rosacea with medication and in the past all the topical treatments I tried didn't seem to work for me. I just found good makeup and didn't go outside without wearing it.
(Side point - I love the blog tips about rosacea since they are really good information for people who are still struggling with it)
Now I feel much better about myself now my skin is improving, thank you so much for this. Because my skin is improving I finally convinced my husband to buy ESK too!
Thanks, Leslie"

"Hi, my name is Kelly and I have suffered with problematic skin for most of my life. I had terrible acne and chicken pocks as a child that resulted in scarring. Then along came the fine lines and wrinkles. In just under two weeks, I have seen a massive change! The regime is incredibly easy to follow, you don’t need much of it and it is an Australian product! I am finally proud of my skin and cannot wait to see what my face looks like in a month! I am so grateful! Thank you Esk!"

Really enjoyed these acne microneedle patches! I always have random breakouts so I will definitely will be carrying these around for those emergency breakouts...
Karin G
“I had the worst breakout at 40 and needed to change the products I had been using. I came across ESK and after doing some research felt this would be the best treatment for me to try. After 5 days of using the acne package my skin had changed for the better. A month along and my skin has improved so much. Hardly any breakouts and my skin is glowing with pigmentation lightening. Cannot recommend ESK enough”

"My skin feels amazing. I'm still having the occasional hormonal outbreak but mostly my skin is healing and so is my confidence to leave the house without makeup. Thank you so much."
Vicky G
"I've been using ESK for one month to help with pigmentation and wow!
I feel like I have a brand new face. My skin is smoother and softer, dark spots have faded. It's taken years off in a really short time.
Everyone needs to know about ESK!"
Emma S
I absolutely loved spotless patches!! I get some super stubborn hormonal acne and adding spotless as an additional product was perfect in my regime! I saw immediate results overnight, major reduction to size and colour. I loved how easy and unnoticeable they are!!
Jade B
"I noticed a massive difference in the redness and protrusion of my pimple. It make the breakout completely flat against my skin and heal way faster than my pimples usually do! Usually the bump from a pimple is raised for a while, but spotless made the bump go back to normal overnight."

"I've been using the pigmentation products for a month now, I'm very happy with the results, my brown spots have certainly faded, my overall skin is looking much better, and I'm looking forward to even greater results as I continue on using this fabulous skin care regime. I love the way my skin feels after each use and my makeup glides on to give a nice dewy effect which I haven't been able to achieve for some time. I'm feeling more confident in being able to reduce my makeup usage overall."

ESK eye patch trial. Super easy to use. Once applied the patch blends in well against the skin. I applied the patch at night after my normal evening skincare routine (using ESK 4 & 5+) and left it until morning. As a 60 year old with sun damaged skin, I found this product to be brilliant with noticeable results to skin tone and pigmentation after the 12 day trial.

Please find attached my before and after pics for the patch review. Left eye before, right eye after 12 days of every second day applying a patch to my under eye.
I found the patches easy to use and I think they added more moisture to the fine skin under my eye.
They made the under eye more plump and my dark circle didn’t seem so dark.
Thanks for the opportunity to try these, I love trying your new creations. 😊

I noticed under my left eye after the patch test the wrinkles looked lesser. I would definitely purchase the patches and use for longer!
Hayley S
As for the Repair +, I absolutely loved it. It was exactly what my skin needed. It's super moisturising without feeling heavy or greasy. My skin feels so much softer and I think it looks better as well...I'll be adding it to my skincare routine.

ESK has been the one and only thing that has helped my skin - and quickly! I have suffered from hormonal acne for years, it was red, and sore, and I would barely leave the house without make up on, I was so embarrassed. Within a few weeks, all of the redness was gone, half of my acne settled down and it has just kept on getting better and better. Not only did these products get my acne under control, but the texture of my skin became smooth, my pores shrunk in size and the fine lines I had started to get around my eyes have even smoothed out! What! Even my scars are disappearing, and I have been previously told the only way I would be able to get rid of them would be laser procedures...I tell everyone I can about ESK, as it's been some of the best products I have used in my life!

"I would just like to say how impressed I am with ESK skin care.
I turn the big 60 this year and have be looking for a skin care for mature skin. I was watching Sunrise and Ginni came on talking about ESK. So I thought I would give it ago and I loved the fact that it was made in Australia. I love the way the cleanser made my skin feel so clean and light and the way the products sunk straight into my skin. Which I have been looking for forever. Most products just sit on top of my skin which is frustrating and can be very expensive.
My skin looks smoother and plumper. Finally something that works 😊 Thanks ESK"

"The Ultimate A+ is mind glowingly 20 times more superior than Retinol. Yet it doesn’t make my skin peel at all! It gives me all the benefits of a strong retinol serum without the annoying parts, all I’ve been asking for!"

"E.S.K is a fabulous product. I thought I would struggle to incorporate a skincare routine in my life but after using E.S.K for a month, I realised how easy and rewarding it is to take better care of my skin. I love that all the bottles are labelled using numbers so even on a busy morning, I can certainly take care of my skin without worry."

"I have noticed an overall difference in the feel of my skin, it feels more plump and the colour has evened out. Wrinkles appear to have less depth. I have just started to use eye serum which I am excited about.
Extremely impressed with results so far, only regret is I wish I had started using it sooner."
