I have discovered a new beautiful, natural and cruelty free skincare brand, called FAJU. FAJU means “to heal yourself” in the West African language Wolof, where many of the raw ingredients in FAJU products come from. FAJU’s goal is to create natural products that protect and heal the skin. The rejuvenating serum is one of these products. This anti aging serum is meant to brighten your skin, prevent and reduce fine lines, wrinkles, sun spots and give you a smooth and glowing complexion. When I heard about FAJU and the rejuvenating serum I had to try it. And good news: I have a 20% discount code for you guys!

FAJU skincare – About the brand

FAJU believes in the power of nature. Nature has so much to offer us. But if all we do is take, there will be very little left. That’s why FAJU uses 100% natural ingredients, that have been sourced in an environmentally and ethically friendly way. They personally know all of their suppliers and visit them frequently so they can ensure not only the quality of the ingredients, but also of the working conditions of the people involved in sourcing them.

Also, FAJU donates 1% of their sales to non profits that work to preserve the planet. Their products don’t contain chemicals, parabens, synthetic fragrances, silicons, phtalates, artificial colorants or alcohol and they are non GMO. And of course, they are a cruelty free brand.

The Rejuvenating Serum

As we grow older it is almost inevitable our skin is subjected to environmental and UV damage. The FAJU products protect your skin from these damages, with the use of natural and active ingredients. Some of the active ingredients in the rejuvenating serum – which is an anti aging serum – are: Prickly Pear Seed Oil, Vitamin C and Solanum Lycopersicum Fruit Extract. Read more about these ingredients and what they do here.

How to use it

The bottles have a handy pump. You pump about 3 drops of serum into your hands and massage these drops into your clean skin. You don’t have to wear a face cream on top, just sunscreen.

My experience with the Rejuvenating Serum

The reason why I was eager to try the rejuvenating serum is because of the sun damage on my skin. After years of living in the Caribbean I have sun spots all over my face. About four years ago I replaced sun tanning with self tanning and started protecting my skin vigorously with sunscreen. But the damage has been done. I am determined to keep protecting my skin, using only natural products without chemicals. Products that protect my skin or even reverse some of the damage.

After using the rejuvenating serum for 4 weeks, every day, once a day, I am a fan. It is a super rich and nurturing face serum. My sun spots are quite advanced, from years in the Tropics, so I will probably need more than four weeks to see any progress in that area (will keep you updated through an Empties post). The serum is very long lasting (because you only need 3 drops) and it makes my skin feel super soft and hydrated. It is also a great base for make-up. I can highly recommend the FAJU Rejuvenating Serum! Just don’t forget to use my 20% discount code when you purchase it!
