Good skincare definitely ranks amid the top tier of my beauty “musts” list. No, I am not one of those faux-modest gals who will scream a-c-n-e when a single pimple stands surrounded by skin seemingly untainted by the puberty plague. For me, the plague undoubtedly caught up with my complexion.

The designated zones of attack are my lower cheeks, chin and, less often, forehead. Diet and lifestyle choices are rumored to be contributors to “bad” skin; however, I have been told first-hand from people who specialize in all things skin (i.e. Dermatologists) that these assertions are simply rumors. Your skin is a little more complicated than owing its unappealing front to an obsession with sweets. Luckily, Chella skincare knows the science behind a more Bella you.

Chris Kolodziejski, the mind behind Chella, founded the skincare line to primarily offer men and women an effective, anti-aging regimen. Speaking to the skin at the cellular level, such products as the Enzyme Exfoliating Crema Mask and Hydrating Tonic are infused with agents that work to combat the onset of fine lines and wrinkles.

Notably, peptides, which are revered as the new “it” ingredient in skincare, plays an important role in the molecular miracle that is Chella – it “simply works!” Without getting awash in scientific jargon, peptides boost your skin’s collagen production, which accounts for the turnover of dead skin cells. The result? A reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. Now, because anti-aging isn’t so much of a concern to me than acne is, I was admittedly skeptical on the product’s impact on my skin.

Evidence to the contrary, the ingredients in Chella products also combat acne at a deep level. Namely, the Micro-Exfoliating Cleanser is a godsend as far as I’m concerned!  Because the beads of wax are gentle enough for everyday usage, the product strays from tradition by not damaging the skin if used daily. I implement this cleanser into my skincare routine, and my skin feels and looks more even. This is the kind of product that you have to use yourself in order to appreciate its “godsend” namesake.

If you’re not exactly the spokesperson for clearer or younger-looking skin, do not feel discouraged. A more appealing image does not require washing your face with holy water. Rather, it does require a regimen that treats the essence of your skin, promoting the growth of your skin’s natural ingredients. Your inner Bella is only a Chella purchase away.
