You Know Skin Care is Good When…

Tammy Gibson — Mon, 19 Mar 2012 06:35:38 +0000

I’ll be honest with you, skin care products are hard to review. Because most skin care takes 6-8 weeks to show any significant difference, and most brands want products reviewed more quickly than that. The best I can give you is my initial reaction to the feel, smell and quality of the product and how my skin looks/feels after the first few uses. I’ve been using Meaningful Beauty consistently for 4 weeks now. I used it previously and loved it but needed to take a break from it to test other skin care products. I missed it. I’m been back on the regimen and am as pleased as I was the first time I tried the line.

While using the products before bed the other night, I was thinking of what to tell you other than I love this skin care line. My answer was right in front of me.

The cleanser is applied on dry skin so I don’t have to keep my eyes closed due to dripping water that I splashed on my face so I got a good look at what was going on. As I worked in the cleanser, I noticed my skin look fresher and healthier with every cleansing circle I made as I rubbed the product on. When my face can look rejuvenated after just cleanser, I know I’m using a good product! The formula is mild. There are no exfoliating beads to slough off dead skin, which is usually what gives my face a radiant glow from other products. The Meaningful Beauty Skin Softening Cleanser is non-foaming and non-gritty but works to remove makeup and impurities, leaving skin clean radiant and not tight or dry. While removing my makeup, it’s actually giving back some moisture that my skin needs to have a glowing complexion!

The other products in the Meaningful Beauty Anti-Aging System are fabulous too. They have an amazing lightweight feel that hydrates, protects and repairs skin. Meaningful Beauty is definitely an easy way to give your skin the care it needs to stay gorgeous! The entire system comes in one kit so you have everything you need for healthier skin!

Be Proactive About Your Skin Care With Proactiv Refining Mask

Tammy Gibson — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 07:37:36 +0000

The only way to win against skin imperfections is to be proactive. You can’t just sit around hoping and praying it clears up, looks more vibrant and maintains good texture! A healthy diet, exercise, good skin care habits and products that work for your skin type will give you a happy complexion. A beautiful complexion gives you lasting confidence and nothing is more beautiful than a confident woman!

Every now and then I have an area on my chin that gets red and shows every. single. pore. It’s annoying and I have yet to discover the reason for this irritation. Fortunately, I have discovered the solution. Remember I spoke of being proactive? Well, I am being proactive by using Proactiv Refining Mask to calm the area.

Proactiv Refining Mask has been a long time favorite of mine. I’ve been using it for years. The smell is clean and I love how thick and creamy the product is. When it’s ready to come off, you know it because it dries…no setting timers, no guessing if it’s been on long enough! Just wait for it to dry out and rinse away to see a fresh, clean complexion! I love to apply then jump in the shower when I’m ready to rinse. I let the steam soften the mask while I wash my hair and shave. I rinse the mask right before I get out the shower. It’s easier to remove this way and I think the extra time is great for my skin!

The Refining Mask works for getting your skin glowing! Not only does it have antibacterial sulfur in it to fight acne, it has vitamins to help your skin look youthful, minimize pores and refines texture. Exactly what I need on my 40-year old skin (no, Proactiv products are not just for teens!).

Be proactive, get radiant skin with Proactiv Refining Mask!

PS I’m not the only one who loves this mask! Allure Magazine voted this mask Best in Beauty!

Suffering In The Heat? Use Garnier Moisture Rescue!

Tammy Gibson — Thu, 09 Jun 2011 17:48:36 +0000

As New York, and those along the east coast, suffer hot, hot, hot weather today I wanted to share a product with you that will cool and refresh your skin! Since we will ALL suffer a heat wave at some point this summer, listen up…

You don’t have to climb into a cold tub of water, fully clothed, to cool down (or a public fountain for that matter! Please refrain!). Garnier Moisture Rescue is the hot weather moisture solution! It won’t leave your skin feeling like a heavy cream has been layered on like other products can do to you in the heat! This gel is lightweight and cooling, perfect for wearing in summer’s heat. I think it feels like Aloe Vera gel. Refreshing!

Containing grape water extracts and Vitamin E, the moisture rescue leaves skin protected and moisturized. It penetrates deeply into skin’s upper layers so that skin looks and feels soft and smooth.

To get some heat relief, dip into a jar of Garnier Moisture Rescue day and night to provide your skin a shot of refreshing moisture! Feel free to slather on your body too, it’s good stuff! Don’t forget to drink your water! Best of luck in staying cool!

Garnier Moisture Rescue is available at your local CVS or CVS.com.
