The One Thing that Transformed My Skin This Spring

It’s no secret that I’ve struggled with dry skin. Some people get patches on their hands or face during winter that clear when the weather gets warmer, and some people, like me, suffer off and on all year long with itchy, tight, dry skin on their face and other places on their body. Not only do I suffer from dry skin, but I have sensitive skin and am prone to patches of eczema. The struggle is real.

How to Combat Dry Skin

I sound like a real winner, don’t I?! ;) While it may seem like my skin looks bad, it usually doesn’t. For me, my dry skin is more of a sensation; I often feel itchiness and notice flakiness when scratched that is enough to drive anyone a little bit crazy. All this to say, this spring I finally found a product that transformed my dry skin, and I can’t wait to share more about the transformation I’ve seen over the past three months of using the Curél® Hydra Therapy Wet Skin Moisturizer!

Juice Beauty Review & Giveaway

Product Sample: Skincare samples from Juice Beauty were provided to me in exchange for this honest review.

I am so excited to be talking about my experience with Juice Beauty today. Why, you ask? Because I love ALL of the products I’ve been trying for the past month from them. They reached out to me after I shared their Nutrient Moisturizer in the Whole Foods Beauty Travel Bag and asked if I’d be interested in trying more products. Of course, I said yes!

Let’s backtrack a bit. Last year I had the worst breakout I’ve ever had in my life. I wish I was exaggerating, but I’ve never had acne quite so terrible. I had one cystic zit that was so bad, whenever I turned my head I wanted to die. It was right where my jawline and neck met, so it was just incredibly uncomfortable. I tried to throw every potent product I owned at it, and it only made the situation worse. When I backed off and focused on hydration and gentle skincare, I found it really helped. Since then, I’ve been on a mission to put the best things possible on my face.

Juice Beauty Review

One of my big skin issues is dryness. I’m acne-prone, but dry. It makes it hard to find something that’s moisturizing enough without breaking me out. I’ve tried so many night creams that were hydrating enough and then broke me out terribly. Luckily with Juice Beauty Skincare, my skin feels nice and hydrated AND it hasn’t broken me out. Additionally, Juice Beauty uses natural, organic ingredients and is cruelty-free. Win-win-win-win!

Face Serum: It’s Not Just For Old People

Press Sample
It’s not often that I do straight up product reviews anymore. In fact, I don’t remember the last time I did a review that wasn’t in some listicle type format. BUT, I’m finally a grown-up skin care lady – I’ve already adopted eye cream (last year) and now I’ve adopted serum too! I was one of those doubters… thinking eye cream was for “old people”, and I lumped serums in there too.

What was I thinking. Eye cream and serum are to prevent you from looking old! Duh.

So, now I’ve brought serum into my skin care “wardrobe” if you will, and I don’t know why I didn’t try it sooner. Don’t be fooled by the (low) price, this NeoCell Collagen Serum is pretty awesome. And the NeoCell Refreshing Herbal Mist is fantastic too. Read on to find out why I’ll continue to use these items!

What I Put On My Face

…Or I could title this seriously and call it “My Favorite Skin Care Products for Acne Prone Dry Skin.” But that’s less fun, so I’m leaving it.

And yeah, you read that right, this acne suffering chick has dry skin, not an oil slick. As my esthetician (the fancy name for Lexi, my girl at skoah where I get facials) tells me, its the dry skin that’s at least partially responsible for my break outs and clogged pores. Awesome, right?

But in all seriousness, I thought it’d be fun to share my favorite skin care, because some of these items have saved my life (slight exaggeration) and made me much happier come that special time of the month.

Full disclosure, I did receive one of these items as a press sample, but I was not paid to write this post, just asked to review it. But because straight up product reviews are boring and I’ve had my daily skin care regimen in my drafts for awhile, I figured now was as good as time as any to share it. :)

*Affiliate Links*
I am so glad spring is here for one major reason: my dry skin will soon be history! Winter is always so hard on my face and body skin, and especially hard on my lips! Basically all winter, my lips peel, bleed, peel some more, and nobody’s got time for that.
