Seasons change...

Now that we are transitioning into colder temperatures not only do we need to revamp our wardrobe, we need to revamp our skincare routine! The same moisturizer I used during the hot humid summer weather just doesn't cut it when the freezing wind is blowing in my face. I don't like using a thick moisturizer because it just feels too heavy and clogs my pores. I've tried a few products from the Malin Goetz line...pretty good stuff. Comparable to Kiehls but a bit pricier and they use more natural ingredients.
I cannot say enough GOOD things about the Replenishing Serum! I posted about the Kiehl's Miracle Recovery serum about a month ago but this serum works much better for me. Both have a heavenly herbal scent but the Malin Goetz one has 2.0 % Sodium Hyaluronate which is a vital ingredient in adding moisture and helping to maintain firmness. At $68 a pop for a very small bottle I was a bit skeptical on whether it would deliver results. Of course it turned out to be amazing and I love it! I use 2 small pumps and pat all over my face ...even under my eyes. It is suppose to help my eye cream absorb better and adds extra moisture. The eye area needs EXTRA moisture, especially at night when your skin is healing. Remember, dry skin tends to wrinkle a lot faster than well nourished plump skin. The eye area is extremely delicate so remember to pat gently. After about a minute I put on my moisturizer ( with sunscreen for daytime). I use the serum day and night. LOVE :)
