Skiing Face

Yes, I have a face for everything. Skiing is no exception. I couldn't go on the slopes bare faced. I was in layering mode. 1) Darphin Vitalprotection Age-Defying Protective Lotion SPF 50 for hydration and moisture. 2) Skinceuticals Sport UV Defense SPF 45. It is thicker than the Darphin SPF 50 and puts a stronger skin barrier against the elements. And, whether proven or not, I feel like it stays on my skin longer. 3) Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare All-In-One Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15 in light/medium to even out my skin tone. While layering SPF does not provide extra protection - these steps made my skin look hydrated and protected - and that was the most important to me. After a little eyeliner, mascara, and a nude lipstick, I was ready to take the family on the mountain. P.S. the kids had on Skinceuticals SPF 45 every day. They got a little wind burned, but no sunburn.

Quick Pick Me Up: Eye Energizer

Between 3 kids and 30 stores, I often have extra wrinkles or bags under my eyes even after I put on my makeup in the morning. Enter Darphin Anti-Fatigue Smoothing Eye Gel. I just tap this soothing, cooling gel on over my makeup and voila – my wrinkles disappear. I even resorted to carrying this convenient tube in my purse for a quick after lunch pick-me-up. Packed with caffeine, it is truly an under eye energizer that takes away my sleep shortage (or the appearance of it)!

A Wow Package from Fresh

I came into the office this morning to a beautifully wrapped package from Fresh with 4 things in it:

1. The new, delicious Brown Sugar Shower Gel. Fresh’s signature scent – a lemony, sweet sugar escape – now in my shower? I can’t wait.

2. The hydrating heavenly, Brown Sugar Body Cream. Perfect for bare legs this spring.

3. Brown Sugar Candle. This is going straight into my bedroom

4. The magnificent Black Tea Age Delay Serum. Rich and full of antioxidants. I love this for under makeup.


I really do have the best job in the world!

What’s in My Purse: NARS Spring Lipglosses

Francois NARS is the master at creating great color. I picked up two new lipglosses – Super Orgasm and Angelika. These are my go to for spring. Super orgasm is a sheer pink with a hint of coral and glitter. Angelika looks scary in the tube – bubble gum pink – but is the perfect daytime sheer happy pink. I bought two sets. One for home, one for my purse. You can never have enough lipgloss!

Soothing and Builds Collagen?

Remede sent me their 360° Cellular Concentre Serum to try. A clear, cooling serum with firming brown algae, healing nymphae flower extract, and soothing vitamin E, it is perfect for those days where your skin needs a little TLC. I love it after a hot shower and before moisturizer.
