It will be a very quick report as you might be getting bored and starting to nod off....
You may recall that I posted about introducing some new elements to my ongoing skin care regime.
It's a bit of a leap of faith for me...
I am very careful when it comes to my face as the rosacea can be triggered by so many things...
I try to use the purest products with the least amount of chemicals possible in order to avoid flare ups.
Janet from the gardener's cottage is an Aveda esthetician and cautioned me about using the vitamin C after my post and so I quickly emailed her to find out more.
She was gracious enough to answer some queries and concerns that I had.
Thank you Janet!
I have been using the Avalon C twice a day and find my skin is visibly smoother, the texture has improved and my pores are less noticeable.
My skin looks a bit pinker in the cheek area which might be the effects from the Vitamin C
so I am going to reduce the treatment to once a day and see if that helps...
it also could be that I am out of sunscreen and have been in the garden
under cloud cover for a few hours this week
and have yet to purchase a new tube...
I have been using this twice daily on the lowest setting
it is very gentle almost like having a facial massage.
(which I love!)
I'll keep you posted
and
in the meantime... I am cautiously optimistic.
Janet uses Aveda Sunscreen
she lives in sunny California where sun protection is the order of the day.
I went to the Aveda Salon where I have my hair tended to and they did not have the sunscreen
I was told is has been discontinued...
in Canada.
What sunscreen are you using
or
have I put you to sleep yet?
ZZZZZZZ
Enjoy your Beauty Rest!
