Big percent symbol on yellow background

Within the skin care industry, there seems to be a marketing push to force feed us that more is better. Especially when it comes to “key ingredients” in today’s skin care. If it’s 10% or 20% or 40% percent of “x” then it must be better right? The typical answer is no, not really. More […]

It seems like a silly question, but we’re frequently asked why we use preservatives in our skin care and cosmetics. And the simple answer is… to preserve them. Nobody wants to open their skin care to find fuzzy mold or bacteria growing. Or worse, to use skin care that looks fine only to discover it […]

Until I joined the team at Reviva I wasn’t really a skin care person. I washed my face in the shower – yes, with bar soap – and maybe applied whatever moisturizer was nearby if my skin was dry. But when it came to understanding or appreciating skin care ingredients and formulas I was like […]

Having worked in the beauty industry for the better part of my career, I’ve been fortunate to have had a lot of favorite skin care products throughout the years. Some I used for a couple of months and others just for a couple of nights. But the products I used the longest and returned to […]

Reviva Labs has always advocated for keeping your skin care routine simple and clean. Yes, we believe in layering, but not in the 10-12 step skin care routines that have grown in popularity with the rise of K-Beauty. Instead, we are firm believers in achieving the most with the fewest products. When consumers call us […]

Elaine’s Favorite Reviva Labs Skin Care

Elaine and Belle

I first learned of Reviva when I began working with them as an outside vendor in 2004. At the time, I really didn’t have a skincare “routine.” I moisturized – and wore sunscreen when I went to the beach or the pool – but that was about it. Since my company was working with Reviva […]

When I first joined the team at Reviva, I wasn’t fully aware of all the products they offered. So when I was immersed into the variety of products I immediately began to try them all. And I quickly found my absolute favorite – Reviva’s #202 Makeup Primer. Every morning after cleaning my face, I put that […]

In the morning I splash my face with cold water and then apply our #605 Activated Charcoal Time Release Night Crème (yes, I realize it’s a night cream, but it’s light enough that I use it in the day too). The tea tree oil helps clear-up any blemishes as the activated charcoal helps to draw out impurities […]

Spring Cleaning for your skin care routine

Spring is my favorite season.  It means saying goodbye to heavy winter coats and gloves, and saying hello to warmer, sunny days. And, if you’re like me, Spring also signals that it’s time to clean!  No, I don’t mean tossing things out of the garage or basement – there are plenty other seasons to do […]

It stems from Buddhist teachings and helps to keep “perspective” on what should really matter in life. By appreciating and even celebrating things that are not perfect or that are temporary you’re better able to focus on the world and […]
