The latest peptide serum that aides in line prevention. Not another one of those!
The break through ingredient is called Calmosensine and it has a lipo-dipeptide that inhibits muscle contraction and increases the skin's tolerance to internal and external aggressions. It's also said that Calmosensine soothes the skin by lessening sensitivity to chemical irritants. Apparently aides in sexual stamina too-whewhoo!
All of that said, this serum feels great and fills in my fine lines. It has almost a primer effect to it which gives an even texture to the skin.
I've been using it about 3 times a week in the morning under my moisturizer w/ SPF. I use it in place of my vitamin c serum. I like that it's fragrance free and it spreads easy.
Peter Thomas Roth is always coming out with new and exciting products and this is a splurge that's worth it. Using it just around the eyes, naso-labial folds and neck helps to keep the serum around longer. Don't waste it. :)

Peter Thomas Roth Mega Rich Anti-Aging Cellular Cream
This is one of my all time favorite p.m. moisturizers. It's a blend of malic acid, from apples and lactic acid, from milk. These alpha hydroxy acids have the same duties as a stronger Retin-A but without the intensity. Those duties are to firm the skin by gently increasing the cell turnover rate and also they keep the pores cleaner longer by having the anti-bacterial properties. (Remember back when Retin-A was first formulated for the use of clearing up acne?) This moisturizer is also loaded with avocado oil, green and white tea and grape seed extract to name a few. These are all incredible anti-oxidants that help to nourish the skin and keep it plump and lubricated.
The texture of this is beyond any other moisturizer I've felt thus far. You can only imagine how many I've tried-product junky that I am! It is absorbent and silky but not thick and heavy. It's got just a hint of natural citrus and nothing more. I can feel my skin drinking it up. Very pleasant in every way.
I will use this on the nights that I do not use my Retin-A blend prescription. It's important to take a break from your Retin-A every so often. That all depends on the % you're using and how often per week you use it. I apply all over my face, neck and feather down on to the decollete. Oui, so wonderful.

Peter Thomas Roth Un-Wrinkle Lip Balm SPF 15/Pink Shimmer
I enjoy this lip product because I can treat my lips and get a little color at the same time. Vitamins A, C and E are helpful for stimulating and nourishing. The peptides help to give volume and help to fill in the fine lines. Around $15. for a .48 oz tube. A natural, pretty look without the heavy stickiness some glosses can give.
Great to throw in your bag and go!

Garnier Skin Renew Anti-Dark-Circle-Roller
I like the ease of this product. There's a sheer tint combined with green tea and rosehip extracts making this both an under eye de-puffer and concealer in one.
I apply it just before my SPF moisturizer in the morning. To apply, roll it back and forth once then blend in with the ring finger. I tap any leftover product into the inner corners of my eyes as well.
It's got a very thin, almost watery consistency so it doesn't cake up or look overdone.
I really love that it's fragrance free and cool to the touch with the metal roller tip. It helps to wake up the eyes! The wand itself is easy to hold and easy to pack and go too.
A little treat from Garnier-thanks!

June Jacobs Perfect Peeling Pumpkin Enzyme
A spicy, extremely thorough enzyme exfoliant for most skin conditions. (not for acne or rosacea skin)
This has a deep penetrating smooth texture, making it a great alternative to an abrasive, physical scrub.
The enzymes go deeper into the epidermis, stimulating the cells. It's like they're getting a workout and reminding the cells to turn over. Also these enzymes eat up all of the dead protein cells and "glue" that bind them together. Skin looks fresh, firm and ready for deeper absorption of serums and moisturizers.
I use this product once a week in the bath or shower. I use about a dime size and moisturize it all over my face and neck. I leave it on and it does it's work without me scrubbing or manipulating it into my skin. After my bath or shower, about 7 minutes, I rinse it off with tepid water.
You can feel these enzymes working. It doesn't make me red but it is comfortably stimulating.
It's loaded with anti oxidants and is paraben/preservative free!

CG smoky shadow blast in Silver Sky
This creamy eyeshadow is an easy, affordable choice. Great for travel and many duos to choose from. So there's 2 colors in one stick-like tube. The step 1 color goes all over the eye lid blending up into the brow to highlight. The step 2 goes into the crease of the lid and along the bottom of the lid, closest to the lash line. You can make the line as fine or as wide as you like. You can also use on the lower eye line.
This product is easy to remove with a cotton swab so if you mess it up, just wipe and do again.
After I apply this shadow, I use my ring finger to blend it as needed. Meaning, if I put too much in the crease, I'll blend it over the crease until it lightens up and/or evens out.
It's easy to remove and if anything goes on lighter than darker.
These are dummy proof and yet still look like you know what you're doing when it comes to shadow colors so give this a try and play!

Silk Road Caravan by Stephen Nilsen/Fragrance Pencil
This handy .14 oz parfum crayon is a must especially for people on the go. This is one of 6 scents that are all inspired by teas from across the globe. These are exclusive to Anthropologie stores and are created by the fragrance house, Givaudan in Switzerland.
I was drawn to this scent because of it's apricot/vanilla notes along side peony and white tea. (I also adore the Vanille/Abricot Comptoir Sud Pacific Parfum Spray from France) This pencil glides over the pressure points and is ever so subtle in it's flavors. Just a few short glides is all you need.
There's a soft, silk-like string that you pull to get more more product at the tip. Truly glamorous and makes a terrific gift at only $10.00! It doesn't take up any space and really smells elegant not cheap. I'm super impressed-can you tell? Enjoy.
