Finding Your Personal Prescription

If you’ve ever had trouble figuring out which products are best for your skin, this blog entry is dedicated to you.

We’ve put together a new 3-Step Product Guide to help you select the best anti aging product for your skin type. Here are a couple tips for using this new tool:

1. Understand your primary concern. Many times this can be the most confusing part of the product selection, as we often feel that “everything” is a primary concern. A good way to determine your main concern is to look in the mirror and identify the first skin concern you notice.

2. Customize your regimen: Once you’ve identified your primary concern, then review the targeted recommendations. These targeted recommendations will compliment your core products and help to address additional skin concerns.

3. Consider supplements and diet: Addressing skin concerns with anti aging treatments is the first step. However, to see the greatest impact on the skin in the shortest amount of consider adding a targeted supplement regimen and following Dr. Perricone’s anti-inflammatory diet.

I’ll admit it: blush frightens me.

The fear of unwittingly replicating Raggedy Anne’s look is ever present. Blush is so…subjective. Where, exactly, does the blush go? And what color does one use?

And as if those questions were not are vexing enough, we haven’t even gotten to talk of the canvas. Once placement and pigment are accounted for, the considerations of the skin need to be addressed.

Rachel and I concluded that skin looks best when dewy. Our moisturizers, like Face Finishing Moisturizer, leave skin dewy and glowing. So, we thought that by combining one of our favorite blushes (Orgasm by Nars) with one of our favorite moisturizers (Face Finishing Moisturizer from Perricone MD) that we could make an easy to use and flattering cream blush.

To our delight, it worked- and we wanted to share this demo with you. Try it out and let us know what you think!
