I was pleasantly surprised that my makeup free May was so easy. I credit that to my IPL, Laser Genesis treatments alongside Ultraceutucals & Thalgo skin treatments that I have on a monthly basis. My skin is relatively blemish free as I have removed the sun and capillary damage. I use my home care product religiously. Every morning and night without fail, no matter what time I end up going to bed I never skip this part of my daily routine. I think it has paid off as I have been told by many people that they can’t tell if I am not wearing makeup.

My daily favourites: I love cleansing with Ultraceuticals Brightening Foaming Cleanser in the morning and Thalgo Micellar Cleansing Water at night. I always use Ultraceuticals A Perfecting Eye Cream in the morning and Thalgo Lifting Correcting Eye Cream at night. I know my skin responds to the smoothing forming effect of Ultra A Skin Perfecting Concentrate and Ultra C 23% Firming Concentrate therefore these are in my baseline homecare products. During the day I use Ultra B2 Hydrating Serum and Ultra Protective Antioxidant Complex to maintain my hydration levels whether my lifestyle takes me indoors or outdoors. I always wear Ultra Protective Daily Moisturiser 50SPF and reapply two hourly during the day if I am outside. My Thalgo BB Cream completes my daily finish.

At night I enjoy the silky smooth and deeply nourishing Thalgo Wrinkle Lifting Serum and Silicium Lifting Correcting Night Cream. I use a hydrating mask at least once a week and leave it on while I am sleeping.

Twice daily skin care is as important to me daily nutrition. I look at it as boosting as supporting all that I do for hydration and nutrition on the inside. They definitely go hand in hand for optimal results. One of my lifestyle rules is that what you put in you get back. This is why I invest time and effort into my 5 minute daily facial massage and application of several products morning and night. I believe your skin is one of the first things people see. It gives me pleasure knowing I can be makeup free and looking healthy and natural.
