In a polite society, a well-maintained skincare routine is one of life’s great successes.
One of my goals for 2019 is to work on my skin — according to an esthetician, my skin Isn’t bad but with a dedicated skincare routine it can be even better. Rewind to December 2018 when I went on my yearly family vacation and my skin literally freaked out! In the states, they have what is called “hard water” as you can’t drink it straight from the pipe unless there is a filter. I saw huge bumps on the right side of my face and I was having an allergic reaction to the water. I went to the “ethnic” beauty store In the area and grabbed a few things which I was told would help.
So far things have been good and I definitely would like to share these products.

var isSSL = ‘https:’ == document.location.protocol;
var mnSrc = (isSSL ? ‘https:’ : ‘http:’) + ‘//contextual.media.net/nmedianet.js?cid=8CU3G4D0M’ + (isSSL ? ‘&https=1’ : ”);

})();

The bar itself is pretty big so I cut off a small piece at the end and store the rest in a cool dry place — I used night and day ( as recommended) and it has made my skin really soft and the bumps are now gone. It gives the skin a really nice texture and also offers a tightening effect to make the skin look more youthful and awake. Definitely “haute” approved.
I must admit I was a bit scared to try this product as I heard “brightened” and didn’t want to end up looking “bleached”. It does brighten the skin by giving a natural glow but nothing too crazy. It is recommended to use 3 times weekly and leave to sit on the skin for 3 minutes — I, however, use this twice per week (just to be safe). The product can also be used on the body so If you have rough elbows and knees it will work wonders!
“Never have I ever” … thought that I would use the same moisturizer as my Mom! For those of you into skincare, you would know that OLAY is the OG brand of moisturizers for more “mature” skin but they recently launched a new line geared at younger women. The one I got darlings was the grandma kind and I’m not even ashamed!
