Welcome to mid April!

I just celebrated my birthday last week! A very low key weekend. My husband put together a little surprise party dinner in Brooklyn with some of our friends - I was definitely not expecting it! The only hint I felt that something was “off” was he told me to dress really fancy, but he ended up wearing a very casual outfit which kinda hinted something to me… needless to say I was surprised, and we ended the evening back at a friends house playing Codenames (which is SO fun if you have never played the game- and I'm NOT a game person). Another year has come and gone, I do feel like that year went by slowly…so much has happened.

Products I love for my face

*Please keep in mind that all skin types are different.
This may not work for everyone, but this is what I use :)

Cleanser

I use this to wash my face in the morning and right before bed.
Gentle rub with warm water for 20-30 seconds on the face, then wash off.

Delicate Eye Cream

Use a tiny amount (rice size) amount, after I wash my face in the morning and night under my eyes.

Zinc

Evening: post shower, dry face, I use a small amount, leaving it on until the morning when I wash my face again and wash it off.
