Tocca: Brigitte Crema Da Sogno

Oh, the creaminess!

To call this Tocca magic "lotion" would be an injustice.

It's like whipped butter for your skin, but doesn't leave you all oily and smelling like popcorn.

Thicker than whipped cream, but easy to apply.

The Brigitte scent is totally feminine & lovely, without being girly.

Moroccan rose and ginger are an exquisite combination.

I also love that it comes in an elegant glass jar, so I can get every last bit.

So wonderful on the skin and to the nose!

Use right after the shower for maximum moisturizing; I also use at night on my legs.

I am hooked!

Next stop: Cleopatra scented!

Youth Corridor Anti-Oxidant Boost Skin Serum

Developed by Dr. Gerald Imber.
This serum is Brilliant!

Costly, but a little goes a LONG way (6 drops for your face, neck, and decolletage).

And you're paying for some kick-ass science.

Improves skin texture, tone, even helps with clarity.

I think it even made my pores smaller.

Definitely helped with the radiance!

Consider it an investment in towards furthering scientific research.

A great winter moisturizer.

Works very well on dry skin, even skin that is wind chapped from harsh Michigan winters.

Improved texture & vibrancy.

I will be using this cream to make it through next winter!

Totally stopped any crepe-y-ness.

H2O+ Sea Results Eye Mender Plus

This anti-aging eye cream is wonderful!

H2O+ really knows how to make a non-stinging, yet effective eye cream.

Smells nice & clean as well!

Moisturizing, but not greasy.

Absorbs quickly.

OK, I'm officially obsessed with this gloss. The color is a lovely watermelon-so flattering. It's high gloss and instant glam. I layered it over the lip plumper and can't get enough. Putting it in my makeup bag for my vacation this week. Wahoo!

I'm always skeptical about lip plumpers. I don't think they do a thing. This however left my lips uber-tingly and I must say a bit plumper. The scent is fantastically pleasant.

Dr. Michael Gold clears the air

Have you ever questioned whether your favorite product started losing its effectiveness after time? Or if it’s all in your head? We have, and dermatologist/dermasurgeon Dr. Michael Gold confirmed that we are, in fact, not going crazy and there are many different reasons for products to cause varying results.

Dr. Gold is here to clear up why your favorite product may not be working as well as it used to and how to avoid this problem:

Routine Change: If you have changed your regular application routine which has been working for a while, try being more diligent and sticking to a consistent schedule

Shelf Life: If you are using an old product, the active ingredient can lose its potency, reducing the effectiveness of the product. Toss out products shortly after the expiration date. It’s also a good idea to note the smell—if it’s starts to change chances are the actives have changed and it’s time to throw it away.Skin Tolerance: When you use a product for a long time, at times your skin can become tolerant to it and it stops working as well as it used to. For example, Dr. Gold says that medicated shampoos lose their effectiveness over time, which is similar to the reason that some OTC products are not as good as prescription products.

Expecting Too Much: Do not over-estimate what a product can do. Dr. Gold says we often expect more than what the product can actually do. Sometimes you believe you have just bought the next miracle cream, when in fact, it does little more than what you used to use.

So stick to the products that work best for you and when in doubt consult your dermatologist.
