Glamazons,
I have an interesting relationship with my skin. Growing up, it was an afterthought. Well a non-thought if I’m being totally honest. I was happy to experiment with makeup, make sure my hair was perennially fabulous and regularly visit the nail salon. I didn’t pay any attention to my skincare routine because thankfully, my parents blessed me with great genes so I didn’t have to worry about it. Or so I thought. I rarely had acne beyond a pimple here and there. And quite often, I’d commit major skincare crimes like falling asleep with makeup on (*hides face in shame*) and not wearing SPF (terrible, I know) and I didn’t immediately see any effects. It was a charmed and dangerous life to lead, LOL.
Back when I first started my job at the magazine and wasn’t taking great care of my skin! Shameful!
Now, that I’m officially adulting, I can no longer get by without caring about my skin. I noticed eye bags and crow’s feet right away and when I don’t take care of my body by drinking enough water, my skin can look dull — a total fail as I love a radiant glow.
Seeing the effects of not sleeping, not staying hydrated and failing to use SPF daily on my skin, I dived right into a skincare routine. I wanted products that could help maintain my skin’s vibrancy, youthfulness and elasticity. But I couldn’t go from having no skincare routine to adopting one that’s super difficult or demanding. No time for all that!
I was intrigued by L’Oreal‘s new products because you can get a customized recommendation by taking a consultation, and I wanted to know which products would work for my specific concerns.
I learned that the L’Oreal Revitalift™ Anti-Wrinkle + Firming Day Cream SPF 18 could solve my SPF woes (it has UVA/UVB SPF 18 sunscreen protection!) while reducing wrinkles, making my skin firmer and providing 24-hour hydration. Exactly what I needed.
I used it for four weeks just for the purpose of this post (and to see if I’d really notice a change). I saw change almost immediately. Even my Dad said my skin looked brighter, and people tell me I look younger all the time. In fact, just today, I went out without makeup and was fine. Before I’d never do that because I felt self-conscious about my under-eye bags and always applied atleast concealer.
Finally confident enough to go makeup-free – yay for ageless skin!
I’m so happy about the results, and definitely recommend L’Oreal Revitalift™ Anti-Wrinkle + Firming Day Cream SPF 18 if you’re going through something similar. It’s worth it to invest in great products and educate yourself on skincare now so you can look vibrant and youthful way into your golden years!
Head over to Lorealskinexpert.com to get your own customized recommendation by taking the consultation. And let me know if the products work as well for you as they did for me.
Kisses,
Glamazon Jessica

Love it, you look great! I’ve also started being super vigilant about how I take care of my skin. Genetics are great, but I still make sure I’m getting enough sleep, eat properly and never go without sunscreen!
