with the start of a new season, it's quite understandable {and actually recommended!} to start a new routine for your skin ~ a
seasonal resolution of sorts. the following list includes some of the {many} products i've been using over that past several months for this special round-up. each has wowed me in one way or another. they've proven to be amazing for getting and keeping skin looking fabulous...this season and beyond!
Dr. Marko Lens has developed a line of
high-tech-meets-nature products through his
Zelens line, but i have to give special love to the
Resurfacing Pads and
Repair Balm. the pre-soaked pads contain effective alpha and beta hydroxy acids, as well as more gentle polyhydroxy acids to exfoliate and reveal a more refreshed, bright tone; to keep skin hydrated and treat any irritation that may occur,
Repair Balm is so luxurious and soothing. the silky texture feels delicious on skin and is a fabulous treat at the end of the day.
formulated with copper PCA and calcium PCA, this highly effective moisturizer/sunscreen has helped give my skin a boost. not only does it offer sun protection, but the anti-aging ingredients also aided in smoothing the texture of my skin.
January Labs "Glow and Go" Power Peel Exfoliant
i started using this last fall, and with cinnamon as its star ingredient, it was a perfect fit. i typically use this mask a couple of times a month and it's such a treat, especially when i don't have a lot of time. after 15 minutes, my skin looks and feels refreshed and, yes,
glowing.
Algenist Regenerative Anti-Aging Ultra Rich Cream
highly moisturizing, this rich cream is perfect for dry, aging skin.
alguronic acid combined with shea butter and vitamin C really delivers a moisture boost. this formula is a bit too rich for my skin, but i found a tiny amount worked well for me when mixed in with another moisturizer when i felt my skin was parched. i use the
Ultra Rich Cream in full force on my neck, decollate and hands.
Kate Somerville Exfolikate + RetAsphere 2in1 Retinol Night Cream
the legendary
ExfoliKate is a
holy-grail favorite of mine and will always be on my must-use list! to get the best looking skin all i can say is
you need this. another fabulous product from the skin guru is
RetAsphere ~ it's simply
A-mazing! i love the creamy textured night treatment for its ability to moisturize, keep fine lines at bay and even out my skin tone, all with just a thin layer used nightly.
Derma E Evenly Radiant Serum
this treatment is a natural-product lovers' dream! ideal for oily or blemish-prone skin {or as a treatment underneath your favorite moisturizer}, this
rich in antioxidants,
green tea-infused, gel-textured serum hydrates, fights signs of aging and brightens skin over time with daily use.
Murad Oil-Free Broad Spectrum SPF 30
like
ExfoliKate, this sunscreen is a must-have favorite. i highly recommend it because it contains antioxidant-rich pomegranate {attacks free radicals to repair existing sun damage and slow the signs of aging}, is oil-free {no breakouts here}, and leaves my skin looking great all day {the formula dries to a matte finish}. oh, and it smells good, too!
with regular use, all of these goodies will do your skin a world of good.
