Hello everyone!
I wanted to share my latest skincare routine with you all because a. I'm obsessed with these products b. I love sharing tips that I believe will benefit others c. who doesn't want amazing skin?!
Since skin is the largest organ in our body, taking care of
it should be at the very top of our priority list! I have to admit I used to put skincare at the
bottom of my health routine. My focus for
living a healthy lifestyle was always centered around other areas, but lately I’ve
been paying a lot of attention to my skin in an attempt to take better care of
it. I mean, who doesn’t want
effortlessly glowing skin?! With Miss
USA coming up, I’m trying to be proactive and get my skin in tiptop shape…
ready for the long days and non-stop makeup!
After using the same products for years, I decided to take a
leap of faith and try a completely new routine.
A new cleanser, new lotion, and new products that I’ve never invested in
before. The results? My skin is LOVING it! My face has never felt more soft, looked more
bright, or been as smooth!
The most important thing for me when looking for new products
to use, were the ingredients. I try to use as many all natural products as possible.
I also have combination skin and get pretty oily in the t-zone. Thankfully, I found a brand that was both all
natural and right for my skin. And that
brand would be AVEDA! For the first time
in forever, my skin feels FRESH!
What I love most about these products is that they feel so
light and airy on my skin. I can layer
all of the products I’m using without feeling like I just caked a bunch of
stuff on my face. Another thing I’ve
been loving about these products is how they’re making my skin look. I can tell such a HUGE difference already. Previously, even on my “no makeup” days I
would still wear powder. With these new
Aveda products, I can go completely makeup free! In fact, today I was out
running errands with no makeup on, and this woman stopped me and asked what foundation
I use! My face is clear, looks bright
and firm, and it’s glowing naturally!
So what products am I using?
