Similar to its sweet-smelling sister product, Thalgo’s gentle exfoliant smells of flowers. While using it, it is obvious this exfoliant is intended for the face. Unlike many lower-end exfoliants that are abrasive and scratchy, Thalgo’s is so gentle you just barely feel the tiny Polyethylene Granules sloughing away your dry skin cells. When you rinse away the emulsion, it is unmistakable the product did the job. This exfoliant transforms the face from dull and dry to fresh, clean and rosy.
My dermatologist introduced me to Vanicream. He sells the tube pictured at left for $8 in his office. It’s a fantastic skin moisturizer free of dyes, fragrance, lanolin, formaldehyde and parabens. Vanicream can be used on both the face and body.
What a sucker I was, buying it for $8! Drugstore.com sells it for $5.99 and also stocks the sunscreen version of the product. DERMAdoctor sells it for $5.95!
The manufacturers of Vanicream–PSI Pharmaceutical Specialties Inc.–have a fantastic resource on their site. It’s a list of common chemical irritants found in beauty products. A great resource.
Once upon a time, I worked for a shall-remain-nameless online retailer. While interviewing, I was handed the typical packet of "our-company-is-great" documentation, including a copy of the TIME cover featuring the Chairman/CEO as person of the year.
I was impressed. I marveled over his achievement.
I just couldn’t get past the fact that his nose was riddled with a horrid quantity of VERY visible blackheads.
Don’t be that guy! Biore Ultra Deep Cleansing Pore Strips are an incredibly effective, incredibly quick way to unplug even the most clogged of pores (including the pesky creases around the nose).
In the market for a new concealer, I decided to give Jane Iredale a try. I had read such rave reviews about Active Light under-eye concealer, I was just itching to try anything Jane Iredale.
Right out of the box, Disappear worked differently from any concealer I’ve ever used. In a tube form, the concealer can be applied using its patented sponge-tip applicator, or using a concealer brush. The liquid is layered on thinly until the desired coverage is achieved. I’m a stick-form concealer girl, so it took a couple of attempts to get the application right. Once I got the hang of it, I was hooked. Coverage can be as light or as heavy as you need it. Jane Iredale’s website even claims it can be used to cover up tattoos!
Additional benefit… It contains green tea extract, an antioxidant that also combats acne bacteria. A concealer that helps clear the very blemishes you are covering? Brilliant!
