This month I have discovered two cleansers that are instant favorites. I was impressed with both on first use, and will continue to buy them both. I am crazy about Indie Lee’s Brightening Cleanser. This gentle, foaming, cleanser completely removes makeup and dirt without drying out your skin. It is made with Strawberry Seed Oil, hydrolyzed wheat protein and Tomato extracts. You can leave it on for 5 minutes to use as an exfoliating mask. Skin is left brightened and softened. I am a huge fan of this brand in general. Every product is made from high quality ingredients that blend the best of nature and Science. The second cleanser I’ve gone crazy for is Bare Minerals Pure Plush Gentle Deep Cleansing Foam. Just a pea sized amount provides enough lather to deep clean your entire face. It uses mineral rich sea salts, rosemary, and elderflower to brighten and refine skin. This cleanser even removes my eyemakeup. Both of these brands deliver instant results. So get dirty, to get clean again…

Brighten-Eyes
to use. A Method skincare by Tina Alster MD. The line uses “scientifically-proven ingredients at optimal concentrations to deliver visible skin improvement. Each product is formulated with ingredients that have an excellent safety profile and are stabilized without sacrificing efficacy.” I have been using the Brighten Eyes eye cream and H2 Biome moisturizer. The eye cream is lightweight and soothing. It softens lines with a non irritating micro-encapsulated all-trans retinol. Rosemary, green tea, and ellagic acid provide protection to the sensitive eye area skin. H2 Biome is a probiotic, hydrating cream that balances skin and reduce inflammation. So get with A Method, it’s Doctor’s orders….

fswith Face Stockholm Cucumber Ginseng Toner. I love this toner because it hydrates, while removing dirt and residue. Most toners either do one or the other. This does not leave your skin feeling parched, yet gets anything your facewash left behind. It is designed to help skin maintain its natural pH. It is made with antioxidants, botanicals, cucumber, green tea, ginseng, jojoba, lavender, and Rosemary. So put a little on, and take a lot off…..

KARORA-Karora-Skinwear-Collection-Group-Product-Image-2-2with Karora self tanner. This is the best Self Tanner I have ever used! My favorite is the Tinted Self Tan Mist. Not only do you get amazing color, but this tanner has skin conditioners & botanical extracts in it ,to leave you silky smooth. You get an instant glow, which helps with even application. It develops into a dark brazilian bronze, that fades naturally. Just spray it on the velvet soft mitt, and apply all over. I also love the Gradual Tan in Golden Girl. It has a light to medium sun kissed color. It allows buildable color, with major hydration. It is made with jojoba, coconut oil, rosemary leaf extract, vitamin E and essential oil of argan. So keep your skin bronzed with  Karora and show it off…

It’s silky smooth. Yours can be too if you take care of  it post shave. Wherever you’re removing hair you want it to be soft, silky, and smooth. So banish razor burn, ingrown hairs, and irritation with the right products. Here are my recommendations:

1003_PostShave_c_hrwebRight after I shave or wax I like to apply Jack Black Post Shave cooling Gel. It soothes and conditions irritated skin, and alleviates redness with sage, rosemary and lavender botanicals.  Aloe leaf extract and chamomile help soothe and soften. Balm mint acts as an anti-oxidant to repair damaged skin.

In the weeks following a wax, or following the next few days of a shave you want to be preventative or treat any ingrowns.
pr
If you like a gel like substance, I recommend Prince Reigns serum. It removes dark spots (with glycolic acid) and softens and straightens hair for easy removal. It is all natural with ingredients like aloe vera, eucalyptus, camomile, sage, lavender, vitamin e and citrus oils.

shoba
If you prefer a cream like substance go with Shobha ingrown relief lotion. Glycolic acid exfoliates, tea tree oil protects, chamomile soothes, and glycerin moisturizes.It’s paraben free, color and artificial fragrance free.

min-new-york-solution2-post-shave-treatment-rollerball-278x278
For those of you that like a roll on application, I recommend Min New York Solution 2 rollerball. This product uses an advanced blend of liquid aspirin and organic spearmint to tighten pores and prevent redness, leaving you alleviated of razor bumps, ingrowns, and irritation. It moisturizes as well as protects against bacteria.

so take care of your skin, and get close to someone else’s….
