Anti-Aging P.M. Skincare Routine
Before we dive into my Anti-Aging P.M. Skincare Routine, You will want to go back to my A.M. Skincare Routine to better understand my skin type, and my goals. You will also see that I incorporate some of the same products into my nighttime beauty routine as I do my morning one. Included in my A.M. Skincare routine post is a section on Anti-Aging from the inside-out … don’t miss it!
Step 1: Eye Makeup Removal At home Almay Liquid using Cotton Pads | On-the-go + travel Almay Pads
I do not wear waterproof mascara, but I do wear several coats of mascara. I have found that eye-makeup removers for waterproof mascara work best for me. I am not super picky on which brand. This is an area that I may buy one brand one time, and a different one the next. The one I have purchased the last couple times is the Almay Longwear & Waterproof formula. It does the job. I love the Pads for on-the-go and travel.
I was recently introduced to Egyptian Magic, from a follower on Snapchat. She said it is amazing on eye make-up removal. WOW … game changer!! I will continue to purchase this product and wish I could go back and pull the Almay out on this post. Although, the Almay is good, especially for an everyday natural make-up application. This Egyptian Magic is incredible!!!
Step 2: Face Makeup Removal Olay Cleansing Cloths
I go a couple of days per week wearing no makeup. I aim for two, and once in awhile I get lucky enough to get a third day make-up free. I only use the Olay Cleansing Cloths for Combo/Oily on the days that I wear make-up. I have used these for years, and love them. They do a great job of removing all your makeup. Much better than the cleansing towlettes that come in the little package and are like a wet wipe. Although those are great for on-the-go and travel, for at home, I prefer the cloths. These little cloths have the cleanser built into them through a textured side, but the cloth is dry. Once you get the cleansing cloth wet under hot running water, it will develop a nice lather and build up more as you are washing your face. These are great for travel, as well. You just pack one for each night that you will be gone.
For the past several months, I have been using the Garnier Cleansing Water on a Cotton Round. I do this only to get any last traces of makeup removed. I feel it is important to remove all your makeup PRIOR to the actual cleansing. This may sound confusing, but the two steps (makeup removal & cleansing) are separate.
Step 3: Cleanse CeraVe | Philosophy | Tata Harper Regenerating Cleanser
Now, we are ready to cleanse the skin. I like mixing up my products for this step. I have no good reason why, except that I like product and mixing it up makes me happy! Using my Clarisonic, I alternate between the CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser, Philosophy The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash and the exquisite, but pricey Tata Harper Skincare Regenerating Cleanser (or at Sephora). I picked up the Tata Harper during the Sephora VIB Sale, this past fall, after hearing all the rave on youtube. I know – sucker!!! I have to admit, I was hoping that I didn’t care for it. Unfortunately, for my pocketbook, that didn’t end up being the case. I will indeed repurchase this again this year during the sale. It helps that I am rotating this cleanser with less expensive ones, so it will last the entire year. I suppose that is how I justify the expense of this pricey gem. Who’s with me, ladies?
The Philosophy Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash can be purchased in three sizes: 16 oz. 8 oz. & 4 oz. You will see this product also being used in my a.m. skincare routine.
Step 4: Tone:
LOVE this product. I have many years under my belt using the Dickinson’s Witch Hazel Pore Perfecting Toner.
Step 5: Derma-Roll Rodan + Fields … GIVEAWAY {Details Below}
This AMP MD Roller was gifted to me several years back by a client. I have used it ever since, without fail. I cannot say that I use it every single night. It’s a nice intention, but there are some evenings that I just don’t have the time to put in, when it comes to my Anti-aging P.M. Skincare Routine. I almost feel guilty, crazy as they may seem … if I neglect this step. The roller is designed to help firm the skin, and make lines and wrinkles less noticeable. When I first started to use this roller, I had noticeable results immediately. There are 200 micro needles that help stimulate the production of collagen and elastin properties. It’s like rolling away wrinkles! Active ingredients will penetrate deeper with the use of this roller and double the effect of these products. It offers a brightening and tightening effect. This is an investment piece, and worth every cent!!! I am thrilled that one of you lucky ladies will be receiving this!
Step 6: Active Ingredients Retinoid alternating nightly with Glycolic Acid
Using active ingredients in your Anti-Aging skincare routine (both a.m. & p.m.) deserves a whole blog post to itself. That will come in the future. I am a firm believer in using active ingredients such as Retinoids & Glycolic Acids (evening), and Vitamin C (mornings). It is important to ease your way in with these products. I am at a full-strength regime, but that didn’t come overnight. It can take weeks or months to build up to the strength that works for you. Some more sensitive skin-types may never get to the strength that I am. But that is ok, the important thing, is if you are looking for an aggressive approach to slowing down the aging process, active ingredients are where it lies. I alternate between my Tazorac (prescription, only) and my Derma ET Fusion Glycol Acid 19% Night Treatment (not prescription, but high doses such as this are only sold through a dermatologist or medi-spas). In the past, I have used Retin-A, Retin-A Micro, and Differin (all prescription). I suggest you make an appointment with your dermatologist, and find the retnoid that is best for you. Pray to God your insurance will pick up some of the expense, as these products are in the $$$ range.
Step 7: Eye Treatment Algenist Gel | Algenist Balm
You will see from my Anti-Aging A.M. Skincare Routine that I like using Vitamin C products. This includes my eye treatment, as well. However, I do not use Vitamin C products in the P.M.. Therefore, I use a different eye treatment in the evening. I happened upon the Algenist Firming & Lifting Eye Gel by receiving a sample. I also was given a sample of the Algenist Complete Eye Renewal Balm to try. I loved both of the products and would recommend both. They include Alguronic Acid, which is great for anti-aging. Here’s the deal though, with me … I don’t know why, but when it comes to my eye treatment products, I prefer the packaging to be a pump or tube where you squirt out the product vs. jar-type packaging, where you are required to dip your finger in. This is not because of sanitary reasons, or anything of that nature. I feel that it is just easier to use. I also don’t have to worry about half the product getting under my fingernail when I’m dipping my finger in. Weird, I know! Admittedly, this is my ONLY reason for choosing the Eye Gel over the Eye Balm. Both products are wonderful!!!
Step 8: Moisturize + Self-Tan Vichy LiftActiv Night | Vichy Liftactiv Serum | Vichy Idealia Serum
I talked about the Vichy LiftActiv Night in my Anti-Aging A.M. Skincare Routine as well. Although I don’t use this product on my face in the morning (neck, only); during the evening is different. I use this moisturizer alternating with one of the two Vichy Serums: Vichy Liftactiv Serum 10 Supreme and Vichy Idealia Life Serum. With my skin being as oily as it is, I feel that using the moisturizer every single night is too much. Both the Vichy serums provide moisture, but it is more lightweight than the moisturizer. During the winter months, or if I have been doing too much exfoliating, I may use the moisturizer a couple nights in a row. My oiliness can be finicky, so it really depends. I pretty much make the decision of what product I am going to use on a nightly basis .. depending on the oiliness level. I think it’s quite obvious that I have a real love for the Vichy line.
As for the self-tanning…the Clarins Radiance-Plus Golden Glow Booster has been in my nightly regime for two years strong. One bottle lasts me about a year. I mix about 3 drops of this in with whichever moisturizing product I am using for the night. This is my self-tanner for the face. I LOVE it! I will continue to use this as long as Clarins continues to make it. I will be heartbroken if it ever gets discontinued. It is the only face self-tanner that I have found that does not react on my face, alongside the active ingredients (retnoid + Glycolic Acid). I don’t use it every single night, and definitely I use it more spring-to-summertime. But it does get plenty of love throughout the week.
That, my friends, is my Anti-Aging P.M. Skincare Routine. I hope this blog post provided you with some great tips and product recommendations. As you know, I ONLY stick with the performers. Don’t forget that diet, exercise and healthy environmental choices will make the biggest difference in your skin. Do not neglect those areas!
I also do plenty of masks, peels and exfoliants on a regular basis. I usually do those on a night when I have extra time or on a day that I will not be wearing makeup. I will eventually do a blog post on favorites in my rotation.
Also, I get asked often what products I would recommend if someone was just starting their library of anti-aging products. Whether or not it’s your a.m. or p.m. skincare products that you are purchasing, always start with the ‘powerhouse’ products first. Put your dollar where the most difference can be made. This would be your active ingredients first … for that good exfoliation, then your serums and eye treatments. Save your money on your cleansers. They are not on your skin long enough to make a difference. I think both the Clarisonic and the Rodan + Fields AMP MD Roller would be great investments, as well, and will last you many years. Can’t afford the sticker shock right now? Christmas is right around the corner. Put one or BOTH on your list.
Please, if you haven’t already … don’t forget to subscribe to my blog in the box provided or on Bloglovin’! Happy cleansing … the anti-aging way!!!

Kim P

Tiffany Palmer-Jones
08/08/2016I’m LOVING the No7 Advanced Renewal Anti-Ageing Glycolic Peel Kit! I don’t feel No7 gets the love it deserves, but I haven’t tried a product of theirs that I don’t feel gets the job done.
Great tips, Tracy!!! I’ll be checking back also, to see what your followers are loving!
Tina Smith
08/08/2016Good Morning Tracy! My most loved skin care product Skin longevity by bareMinerals. My face tends to be very picky with serums and moisturizers but this one has been nothing short of fabulous. Smoother skin, minimized fine lines, more even skin tone. Add a few drops of Clarine Radiance Plus Golden Glow Booster (thank you for the suggestion) and my skin has never looked so good. At 47 these are the things that make me ecstatic! Love your Snap and blog…thank you for being you and on so real!
Sincerely,
Tina Smith
Christine
08/08/2016Great Tips and products thank you! I have been doing derma rolling for the past few months with 1.5 mm roller (different brand), but heard the recommendation is every two weeks to allow collegian to produce and allow the skin to heal, I feel I am seeing some results. What are your thoughts on the time frame?
Leigh Peterson
08/08/2016For night time, my favorite is Coleen Rothschild Cleansing Balm. It’s like a mini spa session at home! Thanks for all the great product suggestions!
Amanda Bell
08/08/2016I love good skin care!! One of my cheap drugstore favorites to remove eye makeup is just plain old baby oil!! I’ve heard mixed reviews whether this is good for your eyes or not but I’ve done it for years and no issues and it works!! My favorite product would have to be my obagi retinol but paired with the nuderm blender (hydroquinone) never too early to start a good retinol in my opinion. Thanks for the giveaway and informative blog post;)
Katie
08/08/2016The Boots No. 7 anti-aging line is amazing, I religiously use the serum everyday. I have younger skin but it’s never to early to an start anti-aging regimen!
Rebecca
08/08/2016My favorite skin care product is the Clinique moisturizer!! Can’t live without it!!! Love this giveaway and blog post!! Can’t wait to use these products!!
Kathryn Keeley
08/08/2016I can’t live without my retinoid! I put it off for years, but am now obsessed with it.
Lori McMinn
08/08/2016Great tips Tracy! Thank you!!! I recently bought the Aveda Botanical Kinetics Skin firming/toning agent. I really like it. I have only been using it a week but I feel like it is helping with the tone of my skin. Thanks for the chance to win this great Giveaway!
Tiffany
08/08/2016Earlier this year I found a great Antioxidant Face Serum from Trader Joes, and I have been loving it and many friends now enjoy it as well. It makes your skin feel just like velvet. It has many beneficial ingredients and the best part it is very affordable!
Christine Athey
08/08/2016Hi Tracy! Love your tips! I am a busy woman and my favorite skin care product is the Olay makeup remover cloths. In my busy day I do find the time to at least remove my makeup before bed. I use the cleansing cloth by Olay. Its quick and I love how clean my face feels. I have really dry skin so I let it dry and put on a moisturizer before bed.
Jo
08/08/2016This routine looks wonderful and I would like to learn more about that glycolic serum. I don’t currently have a med-spa, but maybe it’s time I looked into one. I have oily skin and the Clinique Dramatically Different Gel is my moisturizer of choice. I only use it at night; no moisturizer during the day.
Nicole Ackerman
08/08/2016My current favorite skincare product is Pixi Gloxtonic!
Heather Henderson
08/08/2016That amp roller has been on my Wishlist for a long time! I love the AmorePacific enzyme treatment peel, it’s just amazing!!!!! Pricey, but so worth it (add it to you VIB sale list)
Kellyann
08/08/2016Tracy you did it again, another fabulous post! I don’t know how you do it but you are the master! Now I have a list of products to purchase. I want to try the Vichy line and definitely need to get back to the dermatologist for a retinoid. I used to use Obagi but stopped when I noticed how red my skin always looked and I heard it wasn’t good to use long term. I use Cerave cleanser and the Philosophy Exfoliating wash but honestly the best thing I do is shave my face every day. It’s the best exfoliant!
Bklynbilly
08/08/2016My favorite cleanser right now is the Aveeno Positively Radiant Brightening Cleanser.
Julie Hales
08/08/2016I started using the microdelivery exfoliating wash from Philosophy after you recommended it-love it! Thanks for all the great tips! 🙂
Sara
08/08/2016I always mix my skin care up sometimes it is high end and other times it is drugstore.
cindy austermann
08/08/2016Recently, i began using the microdelivery exfoliating wash from Philosophy based on your reccommendation and love it. My personal favorite skin care is the clarisonic cleanser. Love!!
Edna Cabral
08/08/2016Hi Tracy,
Love this post, very informing of new things to try. I definetely want to try that roller. Sounds like many good benefits of using it. I say that my favorite skin care product would be my Lancome Day and Night cream. I love the scent! Thanks for the giveaway! 😘❌⭕️
Kelly
08/08/2016My favorite skin care and makeup products are Lancome. I love anything I have purchased from this brand. I’ve been using their products since I was a teenager and I would switch to other brands off and on over the years but I always go back to Lancome. My most recent favs from their collection are the Advanced Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate Serum and the Renergie Lift Multi-Action Night Cream. Very expensive but it lasts a long time.
Molly
08/08/2016Hi Tracy, I just adore your blog! LOVE this routine. Currently, my favorite skincare product is the Mario Badescu Enzyme Cleansing Gel. I love the fresh feeling it gives my face. Thank you for this opportunity to win these products;)
Courtney
08/08/2016Hi, Tracy! My favorite products are currently the brightening serum and the night-amins from origins! Looking forward to trying out some of these products you mentioned!
Cyndi Permenter
08/08/2016I love all of your posts, Tracy! I have always used Merle Norman cleansing cream. Takes all my make-up off and leaves my face moisturized.
Galene Seneker
08/08/2016Last month at Costco I bought the 2 pack of ROC Retinol Correction Deep Wrinkle night cream and loved it! The first couple of times my skin was flaky but then now it feels so smooth and healthy. I went back and got the one for day time and love that too! I have oily skin and the products have not seemed to make my face any oiler.
Also I have started using the foundation that Tracy recommended – Rimmel Stay Matte Wow!! It’s great and I think better than the Estée Lauder foundation I was using and less expensive.
Love everything you do Tracy! Even got me a tackle box form Walmart! Took on a trip too!
Amy Henson
08/08/2016Great post, as always, and I am enjoying and appreciating all of the comments/suggestions! I have yet to find that “life-changing” product, but I bet I do after this post! I will share that after lamenting to my esthetician about my neck, she recommended using a micro needle roller on my neck. Just ordered one; can’t wait to use it!
Robin Norris
08/09/2016Loving all this information.
My favorite face cleanser is made by Julip. Bare Face Cleansing Oil.
Now I need to check into some of these.
Erica
08/09/2016Great post Tracy! I recently purchased the Jergens Natural Glow Face Moisturizer and I have really been loving it for summer. It gives a nice glow like the body moisterizer does and it is lighter for the fave. I’m sure I will love the lighter (fair) tint come winter!
Erica
08/09/2016Fave = summer (silly autocorrect)
Rebecca
08/09/2016Clinique self-tanner for the face. Have used for many years.
Lynn
08/09/2016I really like Mary Kay Eye Make-Up Remover. It works really well for removing eye make-up and mascara!
Lisa Parker
08/09/2016Hi there Tracy, I am a new follower…and I have already shared your blog w/other girlfriends! It’s hard to find a good website for the almost 50 crowd…well, you are not almost 50, but I am! ha,ha! I see you doing things that I should have done in my early 40’s and now am kicking myself for it…skincare is the biggest one. The two things I am using and absolutely love is the GrandeLash-md serum for eyelash growth and the Grande Mascara! My lashes are long and healthy from using these products. The only downfall is that the mascara doesn’t last as long (2 months), but gosh, when it is fresh….it’s amazing and I don’t need an eyelash curler. Something I would love for you to touch on is cellulite! I try to stay in shape and actually love to exercise, but my inner thighs….you would never know that I workout if you only look at my legs. They say you can’t just workout one part of your body, but my upper body looks toned…my legs don’t match the rest of my body if that makes any sense! Glad I found your blog and I have to say, that I love your sweet heart….I can see the Lord thru you…what a gift you have!
Roxanne Creech
08/09/2016I have always used Clinique moisturizer but I feel like I need to change it up or add some things because of being 45. Anyone ever used Tula or Coleen Rothschild? Which is better?
Lisa
08/09/2016My favorite skin care products that I can’t live without is a combination of Jose Maran Aragan Oil and Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing lotion. I use two pumps of the Clinique lotion and 2-3 drops of the Aragan Oil in my palm then apply all over. I absolutely love this combination. I have normal to dry skin. If you have been using the Clinique lotion for a long time, you should try this addition, of the Aragan oil!
Lisa
08/09/2016I forgot something, I also use and love Latisse!!! It’s expensive but worth it to have longer eyelashes.
Kristin Brownell
08/09/2016I have used Avon Anew products for 20 years. My combination skin has always loved these products and they have stood the test of time for me!
Glad to see you back on Snapchat. Hope things are going better for your family!
Candy Ainsworth

08/09/2016I love anything related to skincare! My favorite thing to use right now is my Vitamin C serum. It has really brightened my skin and helped to even it out!

Katie C
08/09/2016I have sensitive skin and try to be careful with what I use on my face. I love my Clarisonic Mia 2. I’ve used Rodan and Fields and like their moisturizer. It doesn’t leave me oily or cause breakouts. I would love to try the roller.
Jame
08/09/2016Love your easy to follow routine but I have to say I too love your blog all around your so down to earth
Samantha
08/09/2016Any recmmendations for skin care products that will take care of ance?
Dena Nelson
08/09/2016Hi Tracy! I am using Rodan and Fields every other night then I use my tazorac on the other nights. I love my derma AMP roller. My clarisonic was in storage for a year and it messed up the battery and doesn’t work! I’m fairly happy with my current skin situation minus the black circles that I inherited. I have not tried glycol products so that may be an option for me. I do struggle with acne on my neck…. a new peri-menopausal treat! I thought acne was something I wouldn’t have to deal with in my 40’s but alas…..my neck looks like a teenage wasteland sometimes!! Ugh! Love your tips and I’m ordering that top shop tshirt now!! Good Luck to all the ladies…..
Erica
08/10/2016My holy grail moisturizer is the CeraVe PM moisturizer. It has hyaluronic acid in it and is a gel formula so it sinks right into the skin. I use it morning and night and LOVE it.
Margaret B
08/10/2016Good evening! I recently purchased some of the face care items you wrote about and am so excited to give them a try. I’m only 24 but live through your blog and snaps religiously! I even snapped you a few months ago about the derma roller I think it’s a key piece I’m missing personally & I hope to win but will be purchasing soon regardless!! Xo
Esme
08/10/2016I have been blessed with great genes and have always had “great looking”skin. I try not to take it for granted and use all of the olay line. I really do like everything in that line. I try to stick to a routine as much as possible because I know one day its all gone catch up to me. I do believe water and ACV are key to having that hydrated looking skin. Thanks again for sharing your tips and routine. Always a fan :))
Kim
08/10/2016Love Rodan and Fields! I use the moisturizer daily. I would love to have the roller. I have been wanting this.
Bronwyn
08/10/2016Hello! I absolutely love using the Calrisonic facial cleansing brush with just a simple drug store face wash. I notice a huge difference in my skin when using it because I feel like it really delves deep into my pores and gets rid of every trace of dirt and makeup on my skin. Also, I’ve been using the Mario Badescu rose water facial spray and it feels so hydrating and refreshing on my face!
Theresa Hinsberg
08/10/2016Great tips! I feel I am missing that roller in my regimen . Another product I’m sure you have tried is Nerium I love that also! I don’t sell it but I am a fan! You look fantastic by the way! Love your posts!
Monica
08/10/2016My holy grail must have is the ORIGINS VITAMINS!!!! I promise you see instant results the next morning!! Plump moisturized skin at its best!! And it smells great!
Jaime Nash
08/10/2016I like using MK Oil Free Eye Makeup Remover. I’ve had a skincare routine for years – but I’m starting to change it up since I’m getting a *little* older! 🙂 I’m loving all your tips!!
Keri
08/10/2016Loving this giveaway Tracy and all the info in the blog and comments! My esthetician has me on a new regimen of a great line. Neocutis. A little pricier but I am loving it and seeing a difference.
Crystal TOMASZYCKI
08/10/2016I am a true believers in a good vitamin c product during the day! My favorite for the last 5 years has been Truth Serum by Ole Henriksen!!
Suzanne Tucker
08/10/2016I have enjoyed using the clearasil cleanser since I was a teenager! Simple and cheap, but it does the job. I’ve always gone back to it after trying other cleansers.
Diane
08/11/2016Hi Tracy
I’m definitely a prescription retinol fan. I’m just not consistent with it 😫
Karen Lynn
08/11/2016I have two!
I do the Oil Cleansing Method . I use Castor Oil and EVOO mixed. It has changed the appearance of my skin for the better.
Can’t live without the “Gold in the tube” – Retin A.
I had a hysterectomy a few years back and my skin went crazy. I’m up to the highest % in the cream form.
So, I feel the combination of the Oil Cleansing Method Retin A have improved my skin a great deal.
Now, if only my acne scars would just vanish completely!
Claudia N.
08/11/2016Hello Tracy, I’m definitely need to add more to my routines. Do you have any good suggestions for sunscreen before applying make up? I know there is some sunscreen in make-up but I want to add more. Any suggestions would help;) Thank you!!
Ronda Geldean

Ann
08/12/2016Hi Tracy! Thank you for all your snaps. I learn so much and routinely make your veggies with coconut oil.
My morning routine: I use CeraVe cleanser for oily skin, CeraVe a.m. moisturizer, or Sheiseido sunscreen if I’m going to be in the sun a lot or swim. I want to start using a vitamin C serum, but haven’t started yet.
Evening routine: I use Philosophy purity cleanser, and I rotate evening moisturizers. I usually use CeraVe p.m.

08/12/2016Hi Tracy. I know you are a fan of Aldi. Have you tried their Lacura Caviar Skincare? It’s very popular in the UK and has excellent reviews. The mask is just lovely. Love your blog and Instagram and especially your Snapchat.

08/12/2016Hi Tracy, I enjoyed this blog post. I’d like to add to my night time routine, so this was helpful. Currently after I’ve cleansed I use my retin-a cream and DML moisturizer, which I love!

08/13/2016I am middle 40’s and have never been to a Derm. What is this retinol you talk about and do I need to start using it?

08/13/2016I love Sophie The Giraffes products. Their baby oil is perfect help for bugbites and sunburns. I absolutely love it. Also their facecream is something I would suggest to give a try!

08/13/2016Like always you’re a great inspiration! I’m 39 and didn’t have a set regimen till I started following your blog. I have my prescription for my retinol and can’t wait to start using. I hope it’s not to late.

08/13/2016Hi Tracy,
I regret not starting a cleansing routine when I was much younger. You young ladies start now if you already haven’t. I use Jose Maran products and my clarisonic daily. I just wish my skin would stop sliding off my face.

08/13/2016I wish I had the energy to do anything even remotely close to a routine. I barley ever wear makeup and hardly ever do anything for my face😢

08/14/2016I like to use my Norwex facial cloth to wash my face daily. I also like the Olay 7, it has sunscreen in it for when I’m out in the sun!
Thanks for all the great informational blogs!

08/14/2016Hi Tracy!
What a fabulous giveaway! As I’ve mentions before, I’m a Vichy girl and I love their products. I also love and daily use the Clarins booster as I’m look too pale without it. When I don’t use it, people ask if I’m sick. So much for the natural look! Lol
My problem area is my neck/chest area. I use sunscreen but it’s looking wrinkly. I’m wondering if I can “roll” it away. 😉
Thank you again for this opportunity and I hope I win. Happy Sunday! Gracie

08/14/2016Hey gals! One of my favorite beauty products is my Boscia Exfoliating Peel. I love to use it a few times weekly to remove all my dead skin. My skin looks and feels wonderful after using it!!!

08/14/2016I really am loving my Philosophy Hope In a Jar. It moisturizers my skin and keeps it hydrated all night long. Love it!

08/14/2016Im hoping to win this giveaway for my mom, she is always complaining about her wrinkles lol! As for myself, I honestly don’t really do anything with my skin and I probably should. I plan on trying out some of your products you suggested Tracy! 🙂 I am a new follower and am loving your posts and look forward to your snap stories everyday 🙂

08/14/2016Thank you for bringing us this giveaway! Love your blog, snaps and IG. My (lifetime) skin care product is Purpose bar soap as my facial cleanser. My grandmas dermatologist recommended it to her a long time ago and it’s the only one i’ve ever used! Not only is it super cheap, but it works great, great for sensitive skin and I never break out. (Even during my teenage years.) #1 drug store find for me for cleansers!
