Sometimes, I want to super-customize what serums I use at what times. And sometimes - especially when I'm traveling - I want one little tube that's going to do all the things I need. So, on my last trip, I took with me my All-Use Skin Serum from SwissVita!
Does the word, 'Retinol' strike fear into your heart? Do you immediately think of the harsh, doctor-prescribed formulas of yore that made your skin turn red and peel off before finally healing? Skincare science has advanced, thank goodness, and now you can get the skin-clearing benefits of Retin-A, but in a non-prescription form of Retinol. It takes longer, but is so much gentler, and it's become a staple, not only in my skincare, but that of my husband, as well.
Have you noticed that as the seasons change, your skin's needs change a little bit, too? I love changing up my skincare routine pretty often anyway, but there are times when I'm looking for a little more of this, or a little more of that, a little more help with blemishes, or a little lighter routine. If you're looking for a little more Vitamin C, you might want to check out this Triple C serum from Buena Skin!
I've tried a lot of skincare, so it's only natural that eventually I'd try something from Korea. If you haven't heard of K-beauty, it's all things Korean for beauty and skincare - and they are known for doing it right.
Yesterday, I wrote about how I've been waking up with great skin, and today, I want to share with you one of the ways I keep that glow going all day long.
Did anyone ever tell you to, 'sleep on it' when you had a problem or a difficult decision to make? Our body uses the down time to rest and rejuvinate, and often, things seem clearer after a good night's sleep. With StriVectin's Overnight Resurfacing Concentrate, sleeping on it can mean waking up with great skin, too!
Age is just a number, right? Is it really, though? I may act like a 12-year old, and my knees feel like they're 800 years old - and my skin? Well, it looks good, but it's still been around for 44 years now. I'd like it to feel good and look good for a long time to come!
I use skincare not only to protect and nourish my skin, but also to keep it looking as good as possible. So, when I find a serum that not only has longer-term benefits, as well as immediate visual results, I'm pretty exited!
If you could stay forever young, would you? I'm pretty sure my childish sense of humor will keep me *acting* forever young, but I wouldn't mind keeping my skin looking and feeling young, too!
Today is Labor Day, a day that has its roots in the Labor movement, but has come to mean having a day off from work. If you're working hard today, you're gonna wish you had one of these amazing soaps from Antiquity BC to clean off with afterwards!
Do you get overwhelmed by the sheer number of Vitamin C serums out on the market? I've tried a bunch of them, and even I get that way sometimes. I recently have been using a Vitamin C serum from Vibriance that ticks a lot of the boxes of what I look for in a serum.
Ultra. Mega. These words, and ones like them get thrown around so much, they are starting to lose their meaning! Is this Ultra Facial Cream really deserving of the moniker?
If only we could make a literal U-Turn down the aging path and start looking and being younger again. Though, I don't want to go back to high school... maybe my 30s. I loved my 30s.
I never dreamed I would be peeling my face. A few years ago, I never even heard of facial peels, and now I've tried several different kinds, from fruit acids to the strong stuff. I had the opportunity to try Max Life's I-Max Spot Reducer and pair it with their TCA 15% peel for some serious skincare stuff!
Sometimes, a product ticks all the boxes that you look for in skincare, and it works great. And sometimes, it ticks the boxes, and for some reason, it just doesn't work for me. I tried two products from New York Biology as part of my skincare routine last month, and both things happened to me!
It's been a while since I've had the chance to review anything from Instanatural, and now they're all grown up! Sleek new packaging and graphics, and new formulas that my oily skin is just loving. I've been starting my cleansing skincare routine with just two of their new products, but they do so much, it's like I'm using more!
Some days I want a matte look, some days dewy, but never do I want my oily skin to look greasy or shiny. I do, however, want to SHINE, with my new brightening face oil from Amalie Beauty.
It's summer, so many of us are traveling. Have you packed your bags? Not those - the ones under your eyes. Yes, I take them everywhere I go, too. But my bags are lighter, tighter, and smoother with this nifty roller de-puffing eye serum from Exuviance!
How do you feel about getting older? I'm proud of every birthday - it's another year I managed to keep myself on the right side of the dirt. On the other hand, I don't necessarily want to act - or look - my age. I definitely keep my inner child alive and well, and while I won't let the threat of wrinkles keep me from laughing, I wouldn't mind keeping my smile lines and crinkly eye crowsfeet to a minimum!
