Skin Care Routine

Skin Care Routine

If you’ve hung around here long enough, you know that I’ve been in a pretty constant battle with my skin.  I’ve dealt with breakouts, including cystic breakouts, since college graduation.  I don’t get it.  Aren’t I too old for this crap?  Isn’t part of the trade off of working our lives away that we ditch the acne with the braces?  Ok, that’s not fair. I never had braces.  But you get my point.

Not only is my skin acne prone, it’s super oily.  But when I made the transition to Charlotte, I was dealing with a lot of stress and a lot of different outside elements.  It would snow one day then be 80 degrees the next.  My face was freaking out.  I was breaking out and dealing with such dry skin it was painful.

I’ve been on a system of using the Clinique Acne Solutions every morning.  I stopped using it twice a day because it wasn’t necessary anymore.  I was using some off brand cleanser to remove my makeup then following up with the Clearasil Ultra Acne + Marks Wash & Mask and my clarisonic.

Anyway, I think it was the cleanser that was causing my skin to freak out.  When J joined me in Charlotte, he brought a package that Lipton Publicity sent with the Lindi gentle skin care system in it.

Y’all?  This stuff is like silk for your skin.  All the discomfort and dryness I was dealing with went away in just a few days.  My skin is bright, hydrated, but not oily!  And soft…oh gosh so soft.  
This system was originally developed for cancer patients undergoing chemo.  But once the patients were through with their treatments, they continued using the products because of the great results.  It’s no wonder my skin irritations disappeared after just a few uses!
This line is the perfect partner to my Clinique Acne Solutions.  The acne solutions battles those pesky breakouts and this line handles all those important things like infusing my skin with vitamins, antioxidants and nutrients that keep it looking and feeling healthy and young!
And just for proof that I’m 100% obsessed, you get a really attractive makeup-less, tired-eyed, half blurry iPhone selfie.  You’re welcome.
**The Lindi products were sent to me via Lipton Publicity.  All opinions are my own.  I would never recommend a product that I don’t actually love.
