Are you on
De-cluttering your spaces?
Feathering the Nest?
Editing your closet?
Working my way through The Humble Bungalow
culling stuff from cupboards and drawers
Ridding ourselves of things that are no longer wanted
are out of date
&
dusty and dull.
The bag of donations grows each day!
I tackled the skincare products and only kept the top performers.
You may not know that I have rosacea or that my skin is VERY sensitive.
I must be careful to use only the gentlest products.
No HOT water
no excessive rubbing
GENTLE but EFFECTIVE medical grade serums are worth the expense.
Here are my reliable trusted stalwarts in skincare.
Gentle cleanser and Micellar Lotion
by Avene
Rose Mask and Exfoliator
by Andalou
Pro Health Advance and Hydra Cool Serums
from IS Clinical
I use 3 drops of Pro Health Serum in the morning dabbing gently on cleansed skin
followed by Sukin Enriching Night Cream
(it is super hydrating as my skin tends to be dry)
After cleansing at night I use 3 drops of the Hydra Cool Serum
followed by the Sukin Enriching Night Cream
I use the Andalou CC cream every morning
followed by La Bella Donna Mineral powder with additional sunscreen.
I use the Moroccan oil once a week as an intensive treatment.
It would be lovely to go to the spa for a facial
but with Covid still active I am not planning a visit anytime soon.
Any skin care pampering will have to be done by me!

Thank you for sharing your beauty regime. Your skin always looks so lovely and well cared for. The scent of roses is just what we need now. I have rosacea too and have ordered the mask and night cream to try.
As a fellow pink faced person, I will be trying some of these soon. Thanks! Just to share my regimen with you too, my go-to is La Roche Posay. This brand's oils and their sensitive line does not cause me any reactions.
Oh good luck with the new products. Rose is very gentle and soothing for our rosacea issues.
La Roche Posay have an anti redness formula too which has great reviews. Avene is also a gentle line and has a red reducing formula as well...take care Kristi
A local company, in Nova Scotia, sells a beautiful line of rose based skin care products. Natural ingredients with a lovely scent and texture. My rosacea prone skin has never been better. The company is Osha Mae.
I don't have rosacea, but do love both Avene and Andalou products. I learned about Andalou from a friend. I commented on how nice her completion was looking, and she said she was recommended these products and had been using them for about a month.
I also admit to loving the scent of roses in products. I think perhaps it makes me think of my mother! It is a bit of an 'old fashioned' scent that is coming back into favour, for good reasons.
Thank you for the information on the skincare line from Nova Scotia.
Take care Laura
Gentle and effective skincare products are good for a lot of skin types. Roses are my favourite flowers and I adore their scent. I am not sure if that makes me old fashioned but I am a senior so I may come by that naturally :-))
I would never have guessed you had a skin problem!
My favorite products to date come from SPAIN.I never recall the name but they work for me.I need to stop trying others and just bite the bullet and stay with them.
