You
know me by now readers! I usually will not dedicate an entire 'what's new' blog
to just one item unless it is fabulous & amazing. So here is my first of
2016 (and hopefully not the last - I rather enjoy fabulous & amazing
products - especially inexpensive ones!)
The first award of the year goes to
micellar water. Composed of micelle cleansing molecules that literally pull
dirt & oils away from your skin. Yes, it's just that simple. No fragrance,
no tingling, no rinsing. You are left with unbelievable smooth, hydrated skin! Originating
in France and pronounced me-sell-are,
I am truly sold on this. I am using Garnier brand, inexpensive ($6.99 for 13.5
oz. at Walmart without a coupon!) & ounce per ounce the most value. (Another
'drugstore' brand to try is Simple but fewer ounces for the money.) It is extremely effective in removing dirt
& makeup. Garnier has a type that works on the more stubborn waterproof mascara
too (the blue lid bottle).
For my own cleaning regime it fits in
perfectly. If you are cleaning thoroughly the night before (as you should!) you
need not cleanse in the AM if you are say over 40. This is unnecessary &
drying. So I use a thorough, non-drying cleanser at night, followed by serum
& moisturizer. Those times when I am too tired to clean my face
traditionally, this micellar water does a fabulous job. I take my two-sided
cotton round & sweep the exfoliating side around my face. I then flip to
the gentler side of the round and smooth gently around the eye area. When the
AM rolls around this water becomes the perfect AM cleanser/refresher too. Wakes
up my skin without over-drying. I then proceed with my moisturizers & SPF
makeup. So easy!!
Enjoy this latest
'technology' for the skin, Ladies & I will continue to test the latest
& greatest for you in 2016! Micellar water is truly amazing...
