Over the 4th of July weekend I had one goal – to not wear any make-up for three days straight [big goals people, big goals]. I made this goal knowing that I was going to be hosting people at our house and yes – I made it knowing I would be posting pictures on social media. This probably doesn’t sound like a big deal to many of you, but a year ago at this time there is no way in haaaaaaaaaaail that I would have felt confident enough to go “naked” on my face for several days straight while being exposed to people outside of my dog. However, over the past several months I have started using a new skincare system that has completely changed the way I feel about my face. Side note :: this post is 100% not sponsored as I purchased the products myself and am not receiving compensation for these words! Carry on.
You may remember here when I started talking about Rodan & Fields. And listen, I get it. It’s expensive, I know. But it’s worth it. I don’t care how many times people tell you beauty comes from the inside, us ladies need to feel it on the outside as well. And for me, it all starts with my face. Hi face!
As you can see, it is mostly skin care items and hardly any make-up other than my bare minerals powder, blush, mascara, and lip gloss. Gone are the concealer and liquid foundation days [hollllllla]. For me personally the REVERSE system is where its at. I love how it brightens up my face, erases the dark sun spots, and leaves my skin feeling smoother than it ever has before. I use this both morning and night, however the system comes with a schedule for you to follow so it takes a little bit of time before you use it two times a day like I am. Also I should note that I started using this system in February and have only had to repurchase once meaning it lasts for months.
Another game changer [seriously obsessed] is the Rodan & Fields Microdermabrasion paste. I use this 3 times a week and oh the things it does for my skin – it’s like I have a whole new face when I am done with it.
