As I get older, I notice that my skin isn't looking as good as it used to. I now see fine lines and wrinkles where my skin used to be smooth. On top of this, I have dry skin, so my skin needs some extra care without overloading it.
I read some good reviews of Murad's Cellular Replenishing Serum and so I decided to try it. The purpose of this product is to gently clean, exfoliate, and moisturize dry skin, while improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It sounded perfect for me.
Ok, I admit it. I've always been fascinated by the ads on TV, showing women cleaning their skin with those little whirly brushes. They've always interested me, but I never had a chance to try them out- that is, until my most recent facial.
A few weeks ago, I was shopping for one of my dearest and oldest friends, Megan, who lives across the country.
I hardly get to see her or spend time with her anymore, but she's one of those people that I might not talk to for months, and yet the conversation always picks up where we left off, whether that was six months or six days ago.
I've been using Jergen's Soothing Aloe Relief Skin Moisturizer for the past three months (after the store ran out of my other long-time favorite, Lubriderm Fresh Scent), and I have to say, I'm very pleased with how my skin is looking and feeling while using this Jergen's product.
If you've heard anything about shea butter, you know that it's used in many cosmetic, personal care, and skin care products. I have been hearing so much about shea butter lately that I decided to find out more about it. And, of course, when I find out more about something, I can't wait to share it with you.
Here's what I found out about shea butter and its skin benefits. Shea butter is a solid fatty substance made from the nuts of the Mangifolia (also known as Karite Nut) tree. This tree grows in the savannah regions of Central and West Africa. Shea butter is so pure and beneficial that it's used in food preparation (it is edible) and it's also used in soaps and beauty products.
