My Skin Care Routine

I've been wanting to do a skin care routine post for a long time, but I was never confident about the products I was using. Granted, I've never had to deal with major skin problems before; but I suppose I was never 100% positive that I was treating my skin the way it should be treated. I am happy to say, that I am now sure that I have my skin care routine down pat!

For years, I have tried hard to find products that worked well for me. Although I have found many products that are good, I never found ones that "WOWED" me. After watching Julie G's Skin Care Routine video, I knew it was time to make a few changes and step up my game. I use most of the products that she has recommended and I'm simply in love with them. 

While my routine does consist of more "high end" products, it certainly does not mean that I am against skin care brands from the drugstore. Many of them are great, and I still swear by Neutrogena, while my sister, and even husband, love Simple Skin Care. Everyone's skin is different, and it is always important to keep that in mind. While I love and adore all the products that I use, they may not necessarily work for your skin type. In the end, all that matters, is what works for you and how you feel about your skin and overall confidence.

Check out my video below to learn more about my skin care routine and the products that I use!

ENJOY!!!

List of the products I use:

Neutrogena Makeup Eye Makeup Remover

Clarisonic Mia

Philosophy Purity Cleaner

Lush Cosmetics Fresh Face Masks 

Clinique Exfoliating Scrub

MAC Cosmetics Volcanic Ash Exfoliator

MAC Cosmetics Mineralized Charged Water Cleanser

MAC Cosmetics Studio Moisture Fix SPF 15

MAC Cosmetics Strobe Cream

MAC Cosmetics Comfort Creame

Riviva Labs Under Eye Dark Circle Serum

Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado

So there you have it! My skin care routine! One VERY IMPORTANT thing that I forgot to mention....drink a lot of water!!! Admittedly, I am not very good at keeping up with this task, but when I do make the commitment to drink several glasses a day, I see an even better difference in my skin. 

I hope that you all enjoyed this post! As always, please leave a comment and let me know :)

What are your go-to skin care products?

Rimmel London NEW Lash Accelerator Endless Mascara

Influesnter was being very sneaky about this product. I got an e-mail awhile back asking me to take a survey about mascara. I was really excited to take it because I had a strong feeling a new mascara was coming my way; but Influenster would not say from where, from who...NOTHING!

I was freaking the heck out when I opened my Influesnter package to find the NEW (not even on the shelves yet) Lash Accelerator Endless Mascara from Rimmel London. Besides the fact that I am a mascara freak to begin with, Rimmel has always been one of the drugstore brands with my favorite mascaras! I've been using their products for years and I'm quite honored to have been selected for an exclusive preview of a new product.

Rimmel's NEW Lash Accelerator Endless Mascara enhances your lashes beyond the limited for instantly longer and remarkably stronger lashes! The Grow-Lash Complex of Procapil, Keratin and Antioxidants conditions for soft and lush lashes! The lash-catching brush gives you perfect separation for a clump-free result and the new micro-fibre formula allows lashes to stay flexible, never still or brittle.

Well said right? I didn't say it! That is what Rimmel claims their new mascara does for your lashes. So I put it to the test. And I must say...I expected to love it.........and I DID!!!!

First of all...I love the bright packaging! It's simple, yet eye catching and effective!

Second of all...the applicator is fabulous! The brush consists of those rubber bristles, which I always love! At first, I did experience a tad of clumping. Not terrible, but I just wiggled the want to separate. I suppose I experience that with all new mascaras, but it certainly did not sway my opinion. It does in fact separate the lashes, enhances the length and provides volume!

Although I love mascara, I have become quite picky about which ones I use. I want my lashes to POP! Fortunately, this mascara does exactly that for my lashes!

I cannot wait for this product to hit the shelves! I already know that once I run out, I am going to pick up another! I love Rimmel...love their customer service...and the prices for their products are ALWAYS extremely reasonable. I honesty cannot remember a time where I didn't enjoy one of their products!

I am not exactly sure when the Rimmel Lash Accelerator Endless Mascara will be in stores, but if you happened to be walking around your local drug store and spot this bright, metallic, yellow tube...be sure to pick it up!

Here is a very quick review about my new favorite mascara!!!

What is your favorite mascara?

Is it from Rimmel London???
