Talk About Restorative; These are Super Restorative.

There comes a point in life where skin needs a bit of extra help. I have been at "that time" for some time now. Even if you are not at the time when your skin is in continual need of extra help, a weekly or monthly skin re-charge is always in order.

I have been re-charging my face and neck a few days a week with this great Super Restorative combo from Clarins. What a delightful re-charge it has been.

First, I use the Super Restorative Replenishing Comfort Mask. It is a thick, rich creamy white cream mask that hydrates and tightens my skin, while even-ing out my skin tone. It can be come quite addicting, especially when you feel skin needs an extra pick me up. Which for me, is like I said, a few times a week.

I follow up the mask with this wonderful Super Restorative Wake-Up Lotion. This is a thicker toner-like liquid that is meant to be splashed over the face, though I like to apply it and gently swipe away impurities by using it on a cotton pad. It is a perfect compliment to the mask as it further wakes up the skin and makes it appear even more fresh. This lotion can be used in place of toner everyday, but I find it best as a follow up to the mask, for a mini-facial, if you will.

Both of these Restorative beauties are available at Clarins counters as well as their Clarins.com.

Prescriptives All You Need+ For Eyes.

I try so many eye creams that treat the under eye area, but they all have one thing in common. They leave my eye area feeling dry, or not moistened enough. As soon as I went searching for a cream to treat and moisturize to the extent that I need, I hear about this brand new cream from Prescriptives. It is all All You Need+ For Eyes, and the title says it all.

This is a gel-like based cream that smoothes easily out around the eye area. Instantly my eyes feel hydrated and stay that way all day. Along with the moisture, this is packed with vitamins, plant extracts and time-released ingredients to work together to keep eyes looking younger and more refreshed. Results are felt immediately, but long term this eye cream will help reduce the look of wrinkles, puffiness, and dark circles too.

So far, so good. I have been using All You Need+ For Eyes for a few months now, and I am so impressed by the way that my eyes feel making it more than good enough for me.

For just $29.50 a jar, pick this up at a Presciptives counter or online.

L’Oreal Age Perfect Re-Cushioning Serum.

As women experience hormonal changes due to menopause, skin loses 30 percent of its density. And dryness and dullness can become even more of a problem where the skin is concerned. Finding a product to work on pre-menopausal and menopausal skin can be tricky. Thank goodness for L’Oréal Paris and their knowledgeable research team. They knew this was a problem and they have recently introduced Age Perfect Re-Cushioning Serum.

Age Perfect Re-Cushioning Serum is a daily treatment specifically designed to reduce the signs of this bothersome menopausal and post-menopausal skin. Over time, this sophisticated serum – so lightweight it comes in a dropper (the first in a mass market product) – reinforces skin’s supporting foundation and creates a more youthful, luminous glow.

This serum feels so nice as it seems to instantly soften my face and neck skin. It seems to immediately absorb into my skin and make it feel better and look more "alive". I have been using the Re-Cushioning Serum for a few weeks now, and it will definitely stay a part of my long-term skin care routine. I use it before my wrinkle fighting creams/serums, which I do prior to applying my moisturizer.

L’Oréal Paris Age Perfect Re-Cushioning Serum is available at lorealparis.com and chain drug, food, and mass market retailers nationwide for a suggested retail price of $16.59.
