Great video!!! I've considered switching out my vitamin C in the morning for a copper peptide. The peach and lily one caught my eye. I thinking catching any of these when they're on sale sounds like a great way to go. Also! Thanks for the alcohol free wine review. I've been considering them when I go to target. I can only drink like 1.5 drinks in a sitting. Alcohol just isn't my thing. I think I want to try more mocktails out at restaurants and bars. At home I like to avoid drinking my calories. Love your reviews as always ❤
Hey Amy, so great to hear from you! Thank you so much, I am so glad you enjoyed the video. I was actually watching a Short by Dr. Shereene Idriss recently where she actually talked about how copper peptides do not replace vitamin c, since vitamin c protects your skin from free radical damage and makes your sunscreen more effective and copper peptides don’t have the same benefits. I just looked up the Peach and Lilly copper peptides firming serum and WOW does it look promising, from looking at the ingredients it looks like it would be such a nice consistency and it would probably be very hydrating. I would definately try that as part of my evening routine so I can wake up with really plump, juicy, hydrated skin. 😍 Let me know if you try it, would love to get your take on it. As far as alcohol, I hear you I am not loving how it makes me feel and I just find it’s not worth the tiredness and headache that follows, even after 1 to 2 drinks. I have to say that the alcohol free wine that I tried has grown on me, it still doesn’t taste exactly like wine but the more I drink it the better it gets hahahaha. I want to try a few more brands and I think I will just make a video out of it, kind of a alcohol free wine tasting, or as I’ve been calling it adult grape juice 😂. Great to hear from you, thank you so much for your continued support, it means so much! ❤️
Also, a few days ago a video popped up on my feed talking about castor oil for the face. Wondering if you have ever tried that as a substitute for say… Vaseline.? I know it’s really viscous.
I have not tried castor oil for my whole face. I have used it for my brows and my lashes mainly and sometime I would also dab a bit under my eyes after my nighttime skincare routine for extra moisture. Honestly I didn’t notice any changes on my brows and lashes but it did add great moisture under my eyes. I would say that I still prefer petroleum jelly over castor oil. I find it’s less messy (and less expensive)and has no scent. I can use it on my lips as well, whereas the scent of castor oil is not great in my opinion and I don’t love the texture and taste especially for my lips.
This product is good, but there are ones that are just as good for a much lower price. For example, I use Asterwood Naturals Argireline Peptide Serum, costs about $18.00. I also use QRX Labs Squalane and E Oil which costs $14.95. Total to use these 2 together is $32.95. I'm trying to get good products that work without paying for pretty packaging and a lot of hype. No offense to you. There are just other anti-aging options available that aren't as well advertised.
I am still in search for a good non-alcoholic wine. I recently purchased some other non-alcoholic wines and I will do a taste test soon. I did try some really good non-alcoholic beer though and prosecco, so I am still hopeful that there is a good non-alcoholic wine out there 😁thank you so much for watching my video and for you comments 💕
You have great skin! Glowing!
Thank you very much! 💕

If you're using a vitamin c derivative then you can use it with your copper peptides.

Thank you so much for sharing those products. I have not tried any of them but I am always happy to find products that are more affordable.
What about copper peptide pills?
I am not familiar with those, I have not done any research on them.
@@thecristinamaria I was looking for them in stores yesterday I couldn't find anything. Probably have to get it online
🍷 you would think they could do better with fake wine

@@thecristinamaria I hope you find something that you like. Have you tried just mixing low alcohol wine with good quality water?
@@thecristinamaria Riesling and Pinot noir are the lower alcohol wines 🍷
@@thecristinamaria might try making a wine spritzer with wine and tonic water or lemonade over ice 🧊
That sounds really lovely actually
