When the weather changes it is time to change up your skin routine. Taking care of your skin is a big part of your health and wellness. Our skin encounters so many different things that it is very important that we take care of it. That is why Olay Scrubs have become part of my skincare routine.

Olay’s new line of Vitamin C scrubs is the perfect way to start your day. Olay carries 3 different scrubs for your skin’s special needs:

Pore-Perfecting Scrub– Formulated with Vitamin C to brighten and purify skin as well as Dragon Fruit which is a magical escape to the tropics. The small sugar-like crystals aid in exfoliating your face for that natural glow.

Hydrating Scrub– This one comes packed with Vitamin C and Caviar Lime Essence. Caviar helps produce better quality collagen and slows down the aging process. So fancy!

Detoxifying Scrub– as the name says it. This scrub will detoxify your skin. It’s packed with Vitamin C & Charcoal. Charcoal helps draw bacteria, poisons, chemicals, dirt, and other micro-particles to the surface of the skin, leaving you with flawless skin. Charcoal is also good for acne.

I love a good cleanser and was instantly  drawn to Olay’s Detoxifying Scrub. I love how exfoliated my skin felt afterward. It is very hard to find a scrub that makes your skin feel like you actually exfoliated and this one impressed me.

These scrubs help to brighten, deep clean, and gently exfoliate, removing excess oil and refresh your skin.

Having a good skincare routine is essential to maintaining healthy youthful-looking skin. Your skin gets used to the treatment you give it so it shows when you are not taking good care of it.

I fell in love with Formulary 55 at first glance. A line of bath and body products where each product is interesting and elevated above the typical. Everything smells amazing, of course, and the striking botanical-inspired design and packaging are cool. I can’t get enough.

Cordelia, the founder, and the owner, started when she was 20 out of her kitchen selling at Farmer’s Markets.  She even grew some of the ingredients!  It was very thoughtful and slow with the business in the beginning because she had very little money to put into the business.   Looking back now and realize that was a blessing in disguise.  It forced her to really listen to customers and learn what they wanted.  To this day I only add new items after long periods of research.

I was super excited to try the Earthy/Woody Scents featuring four signature scents, including Sandalwood & Cedar, Orange Peel & Patchouli, Agave & Teakwood, and Fern & Moss all made with Shea Butter.

Sandalwood & Cedar- A mix of floral, balsamic, soft and sweet accents that is both earthy, and sophisticated.

Orange Peel & Patchouli- Bright citrus notes mixed with earthy essential oils.

Agave & Teakwood-A blend of sea moss, bark, cedar, teakwood, agave, aloe, and sweet melon.

Fern & Moss-Herbaceous and woodsy mix of leaves, amber, earth, and violets.

All Formulary 55 products are made by hand in Pueblo, Colorado with the finest vegan, cruelty-free, SLS-free, and paraben-free ingredients.

Now that Spring is here, and Summer right around the corner, it’s time to break out the skirts, dresses and shorts. We can finally head to the nail salon and get our toes painted and wear those great flip-flops. With us being able to spend more time outside, that means it’s important to keep your skin protected and moisturized. The Gillette Venus Radiant Skin Kit is the solution for moisturizing your skin while you shave.

Indulge your skin with the 1st Venus & OLAY moisturizer on demand razor. Ever. Dermatologists from the SHA recommend Venus Radiant Skin to help protect your skin from drying out because our luxurious razor locks in moisture while you shave. This means you’ll experience super smooth softness inside the shower and out. With a simple push of a button, you can release Olay moisturizer while you shave and enjoy healthy-looking skin that looks and feels truly hydrated.

Your Guide to Silky Skin in One Smooth Stroke

  • Click in your blades and moisturizer.
  • Press the button to release the moisturizer.
  • Shave and press the button again every few strokes
  • Rinse and enjoy exfoliated, smooth and moisturized skin.

I use to have to use shaving cream, but now with Radiant Skin, I don’t have to use anything at all. I love the feel of my legs after shaving. It feels smooth and soft. It feels like a mini-spa treatment each time I shave.
