One month later, one month wiser, and one month more beautiful. It’s as if I turned back time for a little bit: my skin feels better than ever, maybe as good as it was years ago. “Really,” you say? Yes, really!
I’ve been working on a little – well big actually – partnership with Nexxus New York Salon Care in New York over the past few weeks and it’s finally time to reveal more…
Those who’ve been following me over the past five years know that I’m not that good with beauty routines. I don’t wash my face every night, I have no clear regime in place when it comes to creams (not even now I’ve hit the big 3-0), and I might not even be able to tell you what products I put on this morning. I could blame all of this on being a busy mom and business woman who tries to make everything work as best as I can, but in reality there isn’t a good reason for not doing beauty the right way. Since I started my blog, I’ve gained access to some pretty amazing beauty and skin care products, so it’s about time to put those to good use.
So, here I am, bare-faced on my blog, so that you can see my current skin condition before starting to use the PREVAGE® line by Elizabeth Arden. To be clear, I have done no re-touching to any of my portraits in this post so that you can clearly see my early-30’s fine lines and dark circles. The coming weeks I will take you with me on my journey with PREVAGE® to show you firsthand my experiences with the products—and what you can achieve if you add them to your skin care regimen…
Girls, this next product is going to make your day. One product, perfecting the skin and minimizing the need for foundation or concealer: Water Fuse Beauty Balm SPF 25 PA++
The Pore Minimalist mask, the most freaky beauty mask I’ve ever seen, let alone tried. And it’s a little hard to apply, on your own, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll be fine. This mask basically helps minimize your pores. I’m quite lucky with my skin, but I too have pores that start getting a bit wider, especially on and around my nose. Living in a big, polluted city doesn’t help, so a good deep clean and pore minimizer is needed. As I said, it’s a bit hard to put on by yourself, but it’s worth a try. Soft skin, clean pores, and a fresh look will be the result.
