wow. i havent been on in a while. thought i'd jump back sharing my beauty bag list. i get asked all the time how i keep my skin looking so well, or they cant believe how old i am. well. i will tell you a few of my daily routines. Skincare, makeup, etc.
philosophy is one of my favorite brands. I use Hope in a Jar for Dry Sensitive Skin, Purity Made Simple Cleanser, When Hope is Not Enough Firming / Lifting Serum, When Hope is Not Enough Omega 3-6-9 Revuvenating Oil, Microdelivery Peel, and Hope in a Tube Eye/Lip Cream. Sounds like alot of products, but they all help. As we get older, not younger, and you dont need to to wait until you show signs of aging. Starting now will only help you look your best, not necessarily your youngest, but the compliments always help !
One of the best and talked about brands for a daily SPF Moisturizer is a brand called La Roche Posay. Try La Roche Posay Anthelios SPF 15, which has a patented Mexoryl technology, which blocks out the UVA rays, the ones most damaging and most responsible for fine lines and wrinkles. It is also broad spectrum, to shield from UVB, which is what gives you a tan. A tan doesnt hurt, but do it responsibly ! Google it to find a website to buy, or try a parallel version from Kiehls.UVA Protective Moisturizing Cream SPF 15, also with the Mexoryl technology. Don't let the word cream fool. It is extremely light and without a greasy feel, and will not clog pores !
Lip Balms ? Here are my favorite picks:
www.thebodybakery.com - lip butter $4 in every imaginable scent ! 99 times better than chapstick !
philosophy - kiss me lip balm
kiehls - lip balm #1 in mango, other scents or unscented
MAC - lip conditioner stick spf 15
Favorite Bath & Shower & Body
philosophy Amazing Grace and Inner Grace Shower Gel and Body Emulsion !
Favorite Deodorant - Kiehls Superbly Efficient Anti Perspirant & Deodorant. No fragrance, lasts 24 hours ! Great for the bride to be, special occasions and EVERYDAY ! You wont even know its there !
Favorite Make-up -- hmmm, there are a few in my book. I favor Bare Escentuals alot more these days. Foundation works great especially if you have sensitive skin , and other skin issues. Their eye shadows, and blushes are natural looking, but the more application gives you more intensity.
I still love MAC for their never ending supply of eye shadow colors.
Favorite Lip Glosses -- Dior Ultra Reflect in Beige Velvet & Organdi Pink and Nars in Chihuahua. These are perfect without the stickiness !!!
Favorite Lip Stick - Dior Nude Silhouette
Favorite Eye Liner - MAC Penultimate Eye Liner for a perfectly lined black liner . Their technakolh are awesome for an array of shades without the smearing !
Favorite Mascara - If you have a lack of eye lashes like me, try this 2 step process.
MAC Prep and Prime lash, creates a white base that helps to condition your lashes and strengthens the length of your lashes + the combination of MAC's Plush Lash Mascara. No need for fake lashes !!!
