It’s time for a regime change (and not just because it’s election season!) Ditch the heavy creams and stock up on sunscreen!
I am using SkinCeuticals Foaming Cleanser. Be sure you cleanse away all that sunscreen at the end of the day!
SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic serum is a must year-round! You must read the research on this amazing product…it provides 8x photoprotection, reduces sunburn cells up to 96% in UV irradiated skin, & prevents thymine dimers (DNA mutations associated with skin cancer).
Daily Moisture is a great product for the p.m. summer regime. It minimizes pores & hydrates without greasiness (so it’s also great under makeup!)
The face, neck and chest need lots of protection if you’re going to prevent sun damage & wrinkles. I like SkinCeuticals Ultimate UV Defense SPF 30. It works well under makeup for daily use & doesn’t cause breakouts!
If you have any spots from past sun damage, have your derm check them out. Ask about a 4% hydroquinone lightener, like the one from Dermesse (available at reNew Medispa…you can learn all about this line at our Hautemommas’ Night Out on June 12th). If your skin is sensitive to this ingredient, SkinMedica and SkinCeuticals make great hydroquinone-free lighteners.

A new favorite line is H20Plus. Here are a few great products we love…
Loofah Gloves. These exfoliate better than any scrub and don’t leave a slippery mess in the shower.
Hydrating body butter is the best! It lasts all day and absorbs quickly so you don’t make a mess of your clothes or sheets.
Try the Cold & Sinus bath cube the next time you’re congested…it really helps!
Now is a great time to check out the site… and save 25 bucks! H2O Plus $25 off any $100 purchase with code 175229, 2/25-3/31

With the crazy-cold weather we’ve had lately, skin and hair can suffer! 
Here are some helpers :
L’Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream 5.2 oz is available at Sephora…and is the only thing that can save your hands and cuticles from looking like a dry, ragged mess. Keep one in your car and in your bag to reapply when going outdoors.
Phyto Phytokarite Hair Treatment Mask With Shea Butter is serious moisture for dried out hair…get it online at Sephora or at Ivos Salon.
Exfoliate the bod with Philosophy Gingerbread M
an 20 oz and follow up by moisturizing with L’Occitane Ultra Rich Body Cream 7 oz.
Chapped lips will benefit from Fresh Sugar Lip Balm SPF 15 .15 oz.This wears really well under lipstick and as a heavier layer overnight.
