Boosters might just be the unsung heroes of your skincare routine. These concentrated formulas are designed to deliver targeted results, giving your skin that extra TLC it needs depending on its condition, mood, or the season. Think of boosters as your skincare sidekicks—powerful enough to tackle specific concerns, yet versatile enough to mix with your existing products. Let’s dive into how adding boosters like Yonka’s Hydra+, Lift+, Nutri+, and PHYTOMER Oligo 6 Marine Concentrate can level up your skincare game.
What Are Skincare Boosters?
Boosters are like a turbocharge for your regular skincare routine. While your serums and moisturizers take care of the daily grind, boosters step in to handle the heavy lifting for specific skin concerns. They offer a more targeted approach, focusing on hydration, firming, or nourishing the skin. The beauty of boosters lies in their flexibility: mix them into your favorite moisturizer or apply them directly to give your skin exactly what it needs, when it needs it.
But Wait, What About Serums?
This is where things get interesting. You may be thinking, “Aren’t boosters just serums with a fancier name?” Not quite. Both serums and boosters are concentrated products, but boosters have a few key differences that set them apart:
Purpose: Boosters are highly specialized to address immediate or temporary skin concerns, making them a more customizable solution; especially in this season change, causing dehydration, dullness, or dry skin. This is the time of year that heaters come on, windchill hits the face and they both suck all the moisture and life out of your face! Adding a couple drops of a booster, for whatever purpose (hydration, oil, nutrients, etc), will help extend your moisturizer into the next season without leaving your skin as collateral damage!
Serums, on the other hand, are formulated for long-term use to target specific skin issues like hyperpigmentation, aging, or acne.
Usage: Boosters are flexible! They’re designed to be mixed with other products like moisturizers, allowing you to easily enhance your daily routine. Serums are generally stand-alone treatments, applied directly to clean skin after cleansing and before moisturizing.
Concentration: While both boosters and serums are packed with active ingredients, boosters are usually more concentrated, providing an instant pick-me-up when your skin needs a little extra help. Serums, however, are typically formulated to be used daily to gradually improve skin health over time.
Meet Yonka’s Dynamic Trio:
At Bellini’s, we’re all about products that deliver results, and Yonka’s booster lineup does just that.
Each of these boosters is designed to tackle a specific skin concern—whether your skin’s feeling parched, in need of a lift, or craving nourishment.
Hydra+ for Thirsty Skin
If your skin is feeling dry, tight, or simply parched, Yonka’s Hydra+ is the hydration hero you’ve been waiting for. Infused with plant extracts and hyaluronic acid, Hydra+ quenches your skin’s thirst from within. Its lightweight texture absorbs quickly, leaving the skin plump, smooth, and deeply hydrated. Whether it’s winter dryness or dehydration from too much summer sun, Hydra+ is the perfect boost to keep your skin looking dewy and fresh year-round.
How to use it: Mix a few drops into your daily moisturizer or apply directly to your skin before your serum. You’ll notice a difference in the suppleness and texture of your skin after just a few applications.
Lift+ for That Gravity-Defying Glow
Looking for a little lift? Enter Lift+, Yonka’s firming booster designed to give your skin a more sculpted, youthful appearance. Formulated with plant-based ingredients that help stimulate collagen production, Lift+ is like a mini face-lift in a bottle—without the downtime. If you’re starting to notice the telltale signs of aging, like sagging skin or loss of firmness, Lift+ works to redefine your contours and give your skin that “just had a facial” glow.
How to use it: Lift+ works best when applied to areas that need a little extra lift—think jawline, cheekbones, and neck. You can also mix it into your night cream to maximize its firming effects overnight.
Nutri+ for Deep Nourishment
For skin that’s feeling a bit depleted or lackluster, Nutri+ is the ultimate restorative booster. Packed with essential fatty acids and vitamins, this nourishing blend helps to revitalize tired, stressed skin. Nutri+ is especially ideal for those with dry or mature skin, as it replenishes lost nutrients and helps restore the skin’s natural barrier. The result? A radiant, healthy-looking complexion that’s both soft and resilient.
How to use it: Nutri+ is perfect for those cold, dry months when your skin needs a bit more love. Add a few drops to your moisturizer or use it as a stand-alone treatment when your skin needs an intensive boost of nourishment.
Oligo 6 Marine Concentrate: Phytomer's Booster-Serum Hybrid
While technically a serum, PHYTOMER Oligo 6 Marine Concentrate functions much like a booster, providing an intensive burst of hydration, energy, and protection for tired, dull skin. Formulated with a potent vitamin cocktail—including vitamin C, provitamin B5, and vitamins B3 & E—this powerhouse serum helps brighten, hydrate, and protect the skin for a more radiant complexion. It’s fortified with OLIGOMER, a seawater concentrate rich in minerals and trace elements that strengthens the skin's barrier and prevents cellular fatigue.
Key Features:
- Fortifies and invigorates dull, tired skin
- Features a sea-inspired, pleasant aroma
- Includes a marine prebiotic complex with algae extracts, marine sugars, and marine spring water to rebalance the skin's microbiota and reinforce its immune functions.
- Niacinamide helps minimize discoloration for a more even tone
Like traditional boosters, Oligo 6 can be layered with other skincare products to amplify their effects, making it a multi-functional gem in your routine.
How to use it: Apply directly to cleansed skin or mix a few drops into your moisturizer to enhance hydration and nourishment. Perfect for restoring vitality to skin exposed to environmental stressors like pollution or UV damage.
