The Skin Regime Review and Giveaway!

Hello fashionistas!

I was contacted by the lovely Dana who happens to be the founder of The Skin Regime.

Dana asked me if I would be interested in reading her book and trying a peel to help begin the process of making my skin beautiful. I have never really struggled with acne, but I decided to try it out becuase you never know until you try.

I read her book which is aptly title The Skin Regime: Boot Camp for Beautiful Skin.

I realized how LITTLE I truly knew about the skin myths and common mistakes that many people make. Learning how to treat my skin and train my skin to be better really has made a difference in the overall appearance of my skin. I had never been exposed to any peels before and was a bit nervous about using one. Dana's book explains step by step the process of using the peel and made me feel comfortable about using one. I applied the peel and I had no issues with it. I woke up the next day to brighter skin than I had gone to bed with! 

I really think that you should read this book to find out how to properly treat you skin. Don't waste a ton of money on expensive products that are only a fraction of the key ingredients to make positive changes to your skin. Check out Dana's book for the truth behind skincare!

Dana is so kind that she is offering to giveaway a free book and peel to one of my readers. If you fill out the Rafflecopter below you will be eligible to enter!

Evologie Stay Clear Skincare Line Review and Giveaway!

Hello fashionistas!

Today I have a skincare review about a line called Evologie to share with you all. 

I want to tell you all that I was provided this by Beauty Stat.com to review, but it does not affect my opinion at all. I typically do not suffer from acne, I normally have a few spots pop up about 1-2 weeks prior to my period. 

Anyways, I wanted to share a little bit about the company with you all.

Because we  know that flawed skin can seriously undermine your confidence and affect daily life, EVOLOGIE products are doctor developed and clinically proven by a team of experts committed to the belief that improving the health of your skin improves the quality of your life.

We incorporate medical research, scientific innovation, high levels of clinical testing and a compassionate understanding in our skincare products.

Witness fast improvement of your skin's clarity, hydration, tone, and texture. And with continued use, experience your clearest, smoothest, healthiest skin ever!

First of all, I absolutely love the packaging. The boxes have a clean styling to them with calming colors. 

I also love the product's design. I really like when products have pumps instead of having to squeeze the bottles, it makes them very user friendly. I also really enjoy the chic frosted bottles. 

Evologie Stay Clear Cleanser, Evologie Stay Clear Cream, and Evologie Intensive Blemish Serum. 

The first product I want to talk about is the Evologie Stay Clear Cleanser. 

EVOLOGIE Stay Clear Cleanser is an advanced, non-drying formulation containing natural cleansing agenst, antibacterials, and keratolytics to unclog pores, remove oil, bacteria, and debris while maintaining your skin's natural pH balance. Lycopene, a powerful antioxidant, neutralizes environmental free-radicals that damage skin. Chamomile and honey extracts will leave your skin feeling refreshed and moisturized. 

Benefits: 

Patent-pending YS3 Complex

Clinically Proven Results

Natural Ingredients

Ideal for Teens, Men, and Women

Good for All Skin Types

Rapidly Clears Pimples

Helps prevent breakouts

Helps correct hyperpigmentation

Hypoallergenic

Fragrance-free

Alcohol free

Non-drying

I found that the cleanser left my skin feeling very clean and very refreshed. I felt like it really removed all the makeup and grime from my pores. I also quite enjoyed the chamomile and honey scent that the cleanser had, it smelled very calming. I did not feel like the cleanser stripped my face of it's natural oils at all. 

The next product I used was the Evologie Stay Clear Cream. 

Here's a bit about that product.

EVOLOGIE STAY CLEAR CREAM works by intensifying your skin's healing power. It's YS3 COMPLEX delivery system combines natural ingredients with an innovative trans-epidermal absorption enhancer to rapidly penetrate deep below the skin's surface to where it is needed most. Moisturizers, antioxidants and collagen boosters keep skin carefully protected and balanced.

I felt that the cream (which is a moisturizer) didn't really completely sink into my face. I liked it, but I did find myself using a few more pumps of this than I thought I would have to really feel hydrated. 

I did like the scent of this, which I think is really important when using a moisturizer because it will be staying on your face! 

The final product I used was the Evologie Intensive Blemish Serum.

Here's what the company says about the product.

INTENSIVE BLEMISH SERUM is a potent treatment that rapidly resolves blemishes and pimples. STAY CLEAR CREAM keeps skin clear, moisturized, and helps reduce breakouts, post-blemish scarring, and skin discoloration. Together, the SERUM and CREAM will make your skin visibly clearer, feel smoother and hydrated without irritation, redness or dryness.

I thoroughly enjoyed this product!  I found that it kept my skin remarkably breakout free. It really reduced the redness of the stubborn spots and helped clear up potential spots before they became full blown spots.

Overall, I really enjoyed this skincare line. I would definitely recommend it to anyone with the occasional spots or full blown breakouts. 

I have a travel size of the Intensive Blemish Serum and Stay Clear Cream to giveaway to one lucky reader.

This giveaway will end October 14th, 2012.

Skin-care Routine

Hello fashionistas!

I wanted to share my skin-care routine with you all.

via

To remove my makeup I use the Pond's Cold Cream. This stuff is hardcore, it removes waterproof makeup effortlessly. Sometimes in the winter when my skin is dry I will slather a bit of this on for a few minutes and wipe it off. It rehydrates my skin very quickly. 

via

I pretty much will use any Dove or Olay soap bars to wash my face off before I exfoliate or use a cleanser. Winter Care just happens to be what I'm using right now.

via

St. Ives Apricot Scrub for Blemish and Blackhead Control has been my go to exfoliator for years. I know it is too harsh on some people, but it works perfectly for my skin. I use it about 3-4 times a week. 

via

The Olay Foaming Face Wash makes my face feel extra clean and fresh. A little bit of this goes a long way.

via

Biore Pore Unclogging Scrub is my all time favorite face wash.  I know it claims to be a scrub, but I feel like it's a very soft exfoliant. I use this daily. Sometimes I try to switch products, but I always end up coming back to this one. 

via

Olay's Active Hydrating Beauty Cream is exactly what it says to be, hydrating! I've been using the Olay Active Hydrating Beauty Fluid for years, but I decided to try out the cream for the fall and winter months and I love it. Very thick and moisturizing. I also love the smell of it.

via

For pesky little spots I use Neutrogena's Rapid Clear Acne Eliminating Spot Gel. My mom and I have been using this forever and I feel like it truly works. If I feel a spot coming on I will try to catch it before it actually surfaces and I typically can stop it with this. 

via

Another product I've used for years. I don't really use this for a cleanser, but more for a mask. I typically use it every Sunday night for 20 minutes. It's a really great deep cleanser. 

I really think that you should treat your skin well and take good care of it now, before it's too late for it to matter. I hope to stay wrinkle free for a long, long time!

Do you guys use any of the same products?

Have a great weekend!
