THIS BRAND…..

has never disappointed me. Tatcha continues to have some of the best products out there and the prettiest packaging. Lately I’ve been using their The Deep Cleanse Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser and the best selling Violet-C Brightening Serum. The cleanser gently removes all makeup and dirt while minimizing excess oil and uncloging my pores. It is gel like and turns to a creamy foam. The Violet-C is 20% Vitamin C with 10% AHA’s. This is designed to brighten and strengthen skin for a more radiant look. The directions say to use it at night but I used it in the daytime after the Tatcha Essence and followed with moisturizer and sunblock. Check out Tatcha, they won’t let you down.

3 steps to be exact. I’m crazy about Naisture’s 3 step skincare kits. These are perfect for travel, an overnight, or any evening you want to pamper. I have used both the Exfoliating and Recharging lines. The exfoliating one comes with a cleanser, a peeling pad, and sleeping mask moisturizer.  The cleanser deep cleans, the peeling pad uses AHA’s, Tiger Cica Extract, and Blueberry Extract to remove dead skin and any left over grime. The sleeping mask plumps and nourishes to get you ready for your glow up by morning. The Recharging packet has a cleanser, sheet mask, and moisturizer. The cleanser uses Rice, Grapefruit, and Licorice Extracts. The sheet mask has cactus, Tiger Cica, and Honey Extract. They Hydro Moisturizer deeply moisturizes with Allantoin, Camellia Extract and Pine tree extract. So get with Naisture’s 3 step kits for better skin, by tomorrow.

I’M OVER THE MOON….

for Moon Juice’s Acid Potion. This resurfacing exfoliator is strong and effective. I found it because I was looking for a less expensive more natural substitute for my P50 addiction. Many people have said it’s comparable if not better. I had to see for myself. The owner created the company becuase she had an auto immune disorder that she was driven to put in remission. “Moon Juice bridges the world of alchemy and biology for functional benefits.” The Acid Potion is designed to be used like a toner. It actively resurfaces skin with 5 acids and many botanicals. It is 25% AHA+BHA. It also has Niacinamide, Tocotrienols, Lactic Acid,Salicylic Acid, and adaptogenic Reishi. I definitely noticed smaller pores and fresher skin.  So get with Moon Juice, and get over ineffective products…

better skin. Every 24 hours a new layer of dead skin makes it’s way to the surface says Dr. Dennis Gross. So I tried his Alpha Beta Universal Daily Peel. His peels are said to give you smaller looking pores, fewer wrinkles, radiance, and clear and even complexion. The 2 step daily peels are individually wrapped. They are packed with 5 AHA/BHA’s, antioxidants, and vitamins. The peels are designed for daily use, so don’t worry about sensitivity. The steps are simple. Step 1 exfoliate with the packaged cloth. Wait 2 minutes. Then wipe with the 2nd cloth which delivers powerful antioxidants and antiaging actives. Your skin is then prepped to absorb your serums and moisturizers. So reveal better skin with Dr Gross, and reveal some more…

that spa experience. I have been using a lot of Terme di Saturnia products, and they are luxurious! “The Terme di Saturnia Wellness Center is considered one of the most exclusive Health Spas in the world, and is the recipient of multiple awards for best spa in the medical-natural and thermal categories.” Their at home products do not disappoint. I will review a few of them here, and post a follow up with some more of their goodies. After I wash and tone I’ve been applying the Acid Cream ph 5.5. This product exfoliates with ahas, regenerates with vitamin a, and has antioxidant benefits to bring skin to the optimal PH level. It will also enhance the benefits of other skin care products applied on top. Next I use the 24H Total Control Serum. It is designed to increase firmness while energizing the cellular activity. Some of the star ingredients are lactic acid, vitamin C Collagen and Elastin. In the Day time I use their Illumina Cream to brighten skin tone and texture. It also fights sun and age spots. I love that it is effective yet lightweight. At night I like the Hydra-Sponge Night Cream. It is a rich cream to replenish and regenerate the skin. My last step is Anti-Age Plankton Cream for Eyes and Lips. It is a healing and plumping treatment that fights dark circles and bags while improving micro circulation. So pamper yourself with Terme di Saturnia, and imagine your best Italian Spa life…

and put it on pad with some salicylic acid. Cane + Austin Retexturizing treatment pads rock! You feel them working immediately. They are pre treated pads with 2% salicylic acid and 5% glycolic (sugar cane).  “Cane + Austin uses only purified pharmaceutical-grade Glycolic Acid comparable to a treatment in a doctor’s office. Known as the superstar of the AHA’s, their Glycolic Acid  has the smallest molecular size (of any AHA) which enables it to work effectively both as an exfoliator and moisturizer.” So swipe on some anti blemish , anti aging magic, and swipe hearts while you’re at it…
