I’m in the mood to cleanse everything away, and here are three cleansers I’ve got on hand. La Roche-Posay Toleriane Dermo-Cleanser, Cerave Hydrating Cream-to-Foam Cleanser, and Avene Makeup Removing Micellar Gel. These are all creamy and not very drying so … Continue reading
Vivier Skin – Impressive Mineral Sunscreen and New Enzymatic Peel
What’s impressive is that Vivier Skin has not one but two sunscreens that are mineral and clear. I was going to write that they’re sheer but that’s not even accurate – there’s no grey tint or white cast to them, … Continue reading

Acid Toning
A lunch time discussion turned to Paula’s Choice BHA which is really one of the most iconic skincare products ever because even people who aren’t into skincare have heard of it, and will go to the trouble of ordering it … Continue reading
Refillable Skincare: Trinny London, Humanrace, Charlotte Tilbury
It’s the end of summer and I’m so sad to see it go. It was a good one, one for the books, the ages as they say. It just wasn’t long enough. I don’t want to hear that all good … Continue reading
