My NEW Skin Care Routine with Imedeen Time Perfection® + a Giveaway.

 

Late last year, I introduced you to this anti-aging supplement Imedeen Time Perfection® that I started to take. After vowing to treat myself better this year, I am happy to say that I am making strides in my overall health and beauty resolutions as Imedeen® is now a part of my skin care routine.

A true innovation in anti-aging skincare, Imedeen® is a daily tablet that works from the inside out and has been shown to work in as little as 90 days in reducing fine lines and wrinkles, improving skin quality and moisture balance, and protecting collagen and elastin fibers against oxidative damage.  

It took a bit to get used to taking a pill as part of my skin care routine everyday. I already take a multi-vitamin and one prescription medication every morning. I thought that adding in this new "aging vitamin" at the same time would be ideal, but an additional two pills and having to take four pills at once was too much for me. I started to think how could I incorporate Imedeen Time Perfection® easier and remember to take it everyday. That's when it dawned on me. It is part of my skin care routine, so why not take it at night when I do my nightly skin care routine. So I put the box of Imedeen® on my vanity with my other skin care items. As I finish up with my final layer of night cream, I pop two pills out of the foil package and drink them down with a glass of water. Easy peasy. I haven't forgotten a dose. 

Imedeen® is part of my skin care routine, just as it my cleanser, serum, masks and moisturizers are. The supplement works in the body deep down in the dermal layer of skin where the process of skin aging begins. It’s here in the dermal layer that Imedeen® works throughout the entire body to strengthen and improve the skin’s invisible building blocks through nutrients that help skin retain moisture. Unlike my creams that only reach the top layer, it is working to help make my skin on my face and body feel softer, smoother and more supple. It has been especially helpful as I admit to being lazy with applying body lotion over my entire body every day. I am already noticing that my skin is less dry overall and I know I have this skin care supplement to thank. My arms and legs are not flaking like they usually do in the winter, and my entire body is starting to look and feel softer and smoother.

The proprietary blend of ingredients in the Imedeen Time Perfection® marine complex provides elements important for both skin’s structure and moisture. It includes:

  • LycoPhence GS® is a skin defense system providing tomato fruit and grape seed extracts, which both contribute to the protection against oxidative damage to the skin.
  • Vitamin C is an important antioxidant and essential in the formation of collagen, which is a primary structural protein in the skin. 

Imedeen® can be purchased online at imedeen.us/shop where it sells for $77.00, with larger quantities discounted.

Maybelline Color Whisper Collection.

 

There is nothing more I love than a lipstick that wears like a lipstick but feels like a lip balm. I mean, if I am going to wear it, it might as well feel great right? That is why I am thrilled with the lipstick/lip balm hybrids as of late. There is a new one in town from Maybelline called Color Whisper. It is a different type of hybrid and it is all sorts of wonderful.

Maybelline Color Whisper Lipcolor

Color Whisper is different because it is a lipstick that suspends pure color pigments in a weightless gel. The result is a soft, diffused color with a bit of shine. The color is buildable. If you want a very light shade, just swipe it softly onto lips. If you want a more vibrant color, swipe it over lips a few times until you get the result you want. No matter how you wear it, the feel is wonderful and lightweight. Nourishing honey nectar keeps lips feeling super soft and natural - as if you were wearing lip balm.

There are 20 whisper soft shades that match the lipstick caps, so choosing the right color is easy. There are shades from nude to a beautiful red.

Pamper Skin this Winter with Skin Care from Lancôme.

 

It is cold out. Very cold. Think about what you skin goes through in the cold winter months. Think about what it goes through between the summer and the winter. At least here in the northeast, I am dealing with an average of 70 - 80 degree temperature differences. It wrecks havoc on my skin. This time of year I am reaching for more nourishing products, but don't want to sacrifice all the great ingredients. Lancôme has a host of products that are all pretty great for protecting and hydrating skin. These beauties are helping my skin get through.

Lancôme Rénergie Lift Multi-Action ($92-$112)
Restore your skin’s youthful energy with Rénergie Lift Multi-Action, a powerful tightening range developed to address key aging concerns: wrinkles and sagging skin. Formulated to lift, firm and smooth, the multi-tasking products promote younger, firmer looking skin in just 4 weeks. Together, the trio of products create a “lifted from within” effect for a smoother, more refined, ageless complexion.

  • Rénergie Lift Multi-Action shields skin during the day with broad spectrum SPF 15 protection.
  • Rénergie Lift Multi-Action Night restores skin’s youthful tone overnight, when skin’s ability to repair itself peaks.
  • Rénergie Lift Multi-Action Eye visibly smoothes wrinkles around the eyes, fades dark circles, and smoothes under-eye bags.

Lancôme Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate ($60-$130)
This serum intensely hydrates and promotes skin’s natural exfoliation. In just 7 days, your skin will appear younger and lit from within as well as feel cushiony soft and velvety to the touch.

Lancôme Absolue Hand ($43)
Pamper your hands with this ultra-luxurious hand cream that lessens the look of age spots, while providing replenishing moisture and SPF 15 protection. A formula rich with Soy and Sea Algae helps reinforce elasticity and firmness, while Wild Yam intensely hydrates. Instantly, hands feel softer, suppler and relieved of uncomfortable dryness with a more even-toned, luminous look of youth.
