My Daily Skin Care Routine
Hello Divas!
I hope you had a fabulous weekend! I relaxed and chilled inside. Some of you have emailed me wondering what is my daily skin care routine. My skin is oily and prone to breakouts, i.e., blackheads and whiteheads. In addition, I have found that I have to switch products because my skin can become immune to a set regimen. For example, at the beginning of last year I was using Rx For Brown Skin's Bright and Even Collection. It was fabulous. However after the birth of my daughter my skin started to break out. I then started using Oil of Olay's Anti-Aging Anti-Blemish collection. The Oil of Olay regime did clear up the breakouts but it left my skin extremely dry. So I modified my skincare regimen once again and started using RoC cleansing pads and RoC Retinol Cream underneath pure Olive Oil. The RoC products removed dead skin and begin to repair blemishes. The Olive Oil was a perfect moisturizer to combat dry skin that can occur when using Retinol. Also Olive Oil is a fantastic anti-aging beauty product. Read my review of Olive Oil here.
My skin has significantly calmed down now.
Currently, I am using Lumene skincare. I know I have talked about Lumene Products for the past week, but they are really good! Here is what I am using now:
Morning
Facial Cleanser: Lumene Matt Touch Balancing Gel Cleanser
Toner: Clean and Clear Sensitive Skin Deep Cleaning Astringent
Moisturizer: Lumene Age-Defying Day Cream with Vitamin C and SPF 15. SPF 15 is a must if using Retinol.
Night
Facial Cleanser: Lumene Matt Touch Balancing Gel Gleanser
Toner: Clean and Clear Sensitive Skin Deep Cleaning Astringent
RoC: Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Night Cream.
I am getting tons of compliments on my skin. It definitely looks better and has a little glow to it. But I am sure my weekly mini-facials are also helping!
Please leave me a comment and let me know what is your daily morning and night skincare routine. Also please share what products you use. I am always looking to try something new!

Hot Drugstore Find of the Week: RoC Multi-Correxion Night Treatment
Hello Divas!
I hope your day is awesome! It is cold and overdraft here in Atlanta. I need my Starbucks fix! LOL! Yesterday Oprah's show was all about beauty, but most importantly how to take care of your skin, hair, and nails. Fantastic show! I was too excited because they talked about the importance of using three key ingredients to reverse and prevent the signs of aging.
They are: Antioxidants, Retinol (Vitamin A), and Vitamin C. Dr. Oz stated that when purchasing skincare products, make sure the products contained these three ingredients. So when audience members inquired whether there were drugstore or inexpensive brands that contained these three key ingredients, I was shouting at the television "Roc Multi-Correxion Night Treatment"!!!! This product is fantabulous! It contains RoC pure Retinol. Retinol is proven to diminish wrinkles and fade away blemishes and acne. It also contains Vitamin C which rejuvenates skin tone and Antioxidants which neutralize skin-damaging free radicals. These radicals cause multiple signs of aging. I JUST purchased this product this weekend and I only paid $15.99!!! I used my CVS card and received a $3 off coupon! Whoohoo! It is new to the market, but so far I love it! I will report on the results in a few weeks. But most importantly, I want you Divas to know that you don't have to break the bank to nourish your skin!
Toodles!

Hot Drugstore Find of the Week: RoC Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Night Cream
Hello Divas!
Well I am back! I was a volunteer lawyer for the election and I slept for maybe 3 hours in a 24 hour period. I am still exhausted! But the world is beautiful and life is good!
So this is a new day, but we still must take care of our skin and look gorgeous! My favorite drugstore brand Retinol cream is Roc's Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Night Cream. My skin has been a little stressed lately and I have developed a few blemishes. Retinol is a great skincare ingredient for wrinkles, blemishes, and dull skin. In the past I have used Retinol cream to even my skin tone and balance my skin. Well RoC is a great Retinol cream! It is clinicly proven to reduce wrinkles, but it will also even out your skin tone and make your skin baby smooth. I have been using this Retinol Cream on my face for a few weeks and I am very pleased. The blemishes are fading fading away. Plus my skin looks so refreshed in the morning. Most department stores or prescribed Retinol creams can be pretty expensive. I once paid $85.00 for a 1oz jar! But since RoC products can be found at your local drugstore, you can purchase this fabulous cream for only $18.00. Plus if you shop at CVS or online here, you can usually get RoC products on sale for $2-3 off retail. And if you still doubt the fabulousness of this Retinol cream, it was voted as The Best Anti-Aging Cream by Allure Magazine! Awesome!

Hot Drugstore Find of the Week and Skyn Iceland Announcement
Hello Divas!
Is your week rocking and rolling? I am tired but so happy that summer in the ATL has been very mild thus far. Quick announcement: I am extending the Skyn Iceland, Skin Renewal Giveaway until next Wednesday, July 23 at 12 midnight. I want all of you fabulous Divas to enter! So ladies go ahead and enter to win this FANTASTIC skin renewal kit that is valued at $90.00! Click here to enter the contest. Remember to leave your name in the comment section
Okay, Ladies I have an awesome "Hot Drugstore Find" of the week. RoC Daily Microdermabrasion Cleansing Disks. I have been wanting to try these disks for a while, because I have heard rave reviews about them.
Plus, I needed to exfoliate desperately. However, I am always cautious when trying exfoliation products because my skin is very sensitive and too much abrasion will cause major breakouts. Divas these disks are a must have! The disks contain gentle microdermabrasion action on one side and conditioning moisturizers on the other side. You simply wet your face. Then you use the microdermabrasion side to exfoliate and remove dead skin. Afterwards, you turn the disk over and wet the moisturizing side and use it to massage your face. Rinse and pat dry and apply your usual moisturizer. Immediately, my skin looked brighter and it was definitely smoother. I have been using these disks for 1 week now and my skin feels absolutely awesome. They do not irritate my skin or leave it dry. I'm loving it! RoC claims that these Disks will visibly reduce fine lines and improve the texture of your skin after 1 week of use. Well ladies after 1 week of use, I absolutely stand behind RoC's claims! These disks definitely live up to the hype! And of course you can purchase these disk at your favorite drugstore for only $9.99 for a pack of 24. CVS had a sale on all RoC skincare products and I purchased mine for $7.99. Gotta love CVS! You can also purchase them online here at Drugstore.com. Drugstore.com has a promotion for all RoC products: buy one get the second 50% off!
