I gladly share skincare secrets in hopes of helping others save time and money to get the best results for amazing skin:)
Lets Start with Cleansers!
CereVe Hydrating Cleanser
CeraVe™ Hydrating Cleanser gently removes dirt, oil and makeup without disrupting the skin's natural protective barrier. It contains ceramides, naturally occurring components of the skin that play a key role in enhancing and restoring the skin's protective function. Also included are vital humectants and emollients to replenish and retain needed moisture. The unique ingredients in CeraVe™ Hydrating Cleanser help restore damaged skin and keep skin healthy. CeraVe™ Hydrating Cleanser is an ideal first-step in a daily skin care routine. With its patented Multivesicular Emulsion (MVE) formulation, CeraVe™ Hydrating Cleanser helps restore and maintain the skin's natural protective function. MVE works by trapping ingredients within multi-layered vesicles that are slowly released, layer by layer throughout the day, penetrating deep into the skin to moisturize and nourish. CeraVe™ Hydrating Cleanser is non-comedogenic and non-irritating.
Image Total Facial Cleanser
Image Ageless Cleanser is a universal foaming cleanser that rinses away makeup and oil, balances the PH of your skin and eliminates the need for a toner. A gentle Glycolic Acid blend begins the exfoliating process to reveal smoother skin. Ideal for all skin types.
EYE MAKEUP REMOVER:
My grand mother used Classic Ponds Cold cream and she had no wrinkles around her eyes!
Daytime moisture:
I usually don't use a heavy moisturizer during the day unless I am experiencing extreme dryness!
CeraVe
The ceramide-rich formula provides essential ingredients to maintain a healthy skin barrier and also contains hyaluronic acid and niacinamide, which may help reduce redness. So, while CeraVe®Facial Moisturizing Lotion AM with SPF 30 is protecting your skin from the sun, it’s also rebuilding and restoring your skin’s protective outer lipid layer.
Image spf 50
This next generation broad spectrum UVA/UVB moisturizer provides skin with the ultimate in protection and prevention. Plant-derived stem cells extend the longevity of skin cells, as well as photosomes and roxisomes to reduce the risk of free radical damage caused by the sun. Ultimate Protection Moisturizer SPF 50 is the ultimate in protection against the aging effects of environmental exposures.
Anti aging:
Retin- A
Retin- A
It is the gold standard for anti-aging.
This is a prescription topical cream and it comes in 3 strengths, .25%, .05%, and .01%.
Your Dermatologist will prescribe the strength that best suits your skin type.
With Retin- A you need to be patient. It will cause redness and peeling. I recommend using it every other night and keep away from nostrils and sides of mouth.
On the nights you don't use the Retin-A try the Bobbi Brown Face oil.
I use the face oil for a facial massage 2x a week... this helps to roll the dead skin off and increase blood flow.
After you massage, wipe face with a warm cloth and the re apply a sheer layer of oil.... Let sit then follow with night cream. You can choose whatever night cream you prefer….. try to avoid creams with fruit acids and alpha hydroxy acids that may cause more irritation.
The anti aging night creams can be added to your regime when your skin is acclimated to the Retin-A.
Bobbi Brown Face Oil:
This emollient facial oil provides a concentrated boost of intensive moisture to comfort very dry skin. The lightweight formula absorbs easily, immediately moisturizing, softening, and conditioning skin with an oil blend of Sesame, Sweet Almond, Olive and Jojoba. Vitamin E protects skin from environmental damage. With continued use, EXTRA Face Oil helps keep skin soft and supple. Scented with a soothing blend of natural essential oils, including Neroli, Patchouli, Lavender and Sandalwood. Dermatologist-tested.
Olive Fruit Oil, Sesame Seed Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Jojoba Seed Oil, Tocopherol, Neroli, Patchouli, Lavender, Sandalwood, Linalool, Limonene, Benzyl Cinnamate, Geraniol, Farnesol, Phenoxyethanol

These are a few skin care products I love! After years of spending thousands of dollars and dealing with sensitive skin reactions these are the products that work for me!
Please be mindful of using creams containing any acids in the first few months of Retin-A use!
I am not a Dr. and cannot guarantee any of these products. These are strictly recommendations!
