Skincare

So as a jumping off point I guess I'll start with discussing my current skincare routine. I have a few skin issues. I have rosacea and I also have eczema on my body (mainly legs and arms). I have normal skin, not dry not oily but I can get a little shiny in the t-zone. I am prone to blemishes primarily the painful cystic pimples.

I use Paula's Choice products. I am a huge fan of her products. For my cleanser I currently use the Clear Pore Normalizing Cleanser. It's just perfect for my skin, leaves it feeling clean and fresh but not tight.

After I wash my face I follow with Skin Balancing Pore-Reducing Toner. I just moisten a cotton round with the toner and gently apply it to my face and neck. I like this toner because it hydrates and leaves my skin feeling great and I like that it helps with breakouts.

After that dries I apply Skin Perfecting 1% BHA Lotion Exfoliant. I cannot live without this lotion/exfoliator. It keeps my rosacea in check. I've never had to use a prescription product because this product has done wonders for my skin. Keeps it clear and smooth and has helped with the redness from rosacea. If you have problems with redness and or rosacea I highly recommend this product.

I don't require a separate moisturizer usually because my skin is not dry but sometimes in the winter if my skin starts to feel a little dry I love the Resist Barrier Repair Moisturizer. Usually just a pea size amount or a little more is all it takes. I just smooth it on with my finger tips. This lotion leaves my skin feeling silky smooth every time. It just sinks right into the skin.

I discovered Paula's Choice after using another company's very popular skin care line. I couldn't understand why my skin was tight and irritated even after I followed their routine religiously. The sale's lady at the counter told me I just had to give my skin time to "build up" to tolerate the product. The toner would sting and burn every time I applied it. I was very unhappy with the results. And due to this irritation my rosacea flared up and my skin was super red, itchy and irritated. I finally decided to take matters into my own hands and came across Paula's Choice website. It was the answer to my prayers. Paula Begoun the founder is passionate about skin care products that do what they say they are going to do. She gives you clinical research done on her products. And she even understands that sometimes a product doesn't work for everyone. So she offers an unconditional 60 day money back guarantee. Now that is incredible!
