Best Skin: Update

Remember when I shared my best kept skin secret?

Well, I have a bit of an update. My skin has been calmer and I’ve had less breakouts. My skin feels so good– I want to use it all over my body!

As the seasons changed it started to feel a little…heavy. Around the same time I talked to my friend and found a way to get Shu Uemura in the U.S. (they now have this USA site–even easier!) so I thought I’d give it a try since it was the cleansing oil I wanted in the first place.

This one is a bit lighter and perfect for humid DC (when I went to Los Angeles, I took the Amore Pacific, since it’s so dry there.)  In the morning I use Ultra Calming Foaming Cleanser by Aveeno, and between the two, my skin is calmer than it’s ever been.

Any one else have any secret skin care tips? xoxo

 

New Baby Gift

When one of my friends in NYC had a baby, I really wanted to bring over food. (I have Southern roots–food is the answer to celebrations and tragedies alike.) I wasn’t able to get it together to do it, and I still regret it. So I love this thoughtful box for dinner for the family with a new addition.
