New year, new skin…

As I mentioned, this year I plan on doing more beauty posts.  Skincare is a passion of mine because isn’t that what every outfit starts with?  All of us want beautiful skin so I love trying out amazing products and sharing with you all my favorites.

Aaaand some new problems!

So the new year has started as it alway does.  I’ve been making plans, stepping up my workouts, but also dealing with a bad case of extremely dry skin.  I blame this freezing cold weather, a ski trip, and a weekend in Las Vegas.  It’s left my poor face feeling irritated, flaky, and tight.

The mask…

My cure has been this thirsty skin quenching mask from Clarins.  The Clarins SOS Hydra Refreshing Hydration Mask has my skin feeling hydrated and photo ready in 10 minutes.  Containing the skin-plumping Leaf of Life and hyaluronic acid, this mask soothes, smoothes, and revives.

Favorite trick… Leave this mask in the fridge for a cooling spa-like experience!

How to create a spa experience at home.

If you’re wanting to make this mask even more indulgent… put it in the fridge!  Just place the Clarins SOS Hydra Refreshing Hydration Mask in your refrigerator before applying!  For an at home spa experience first exfoliate, apply the Hydra mask and relax.  In 10 minutes you’ll have refreshed and glowing skin.  I love to apply it while I’m working or before going out.  It instantly leaves my skin feeling moisturized.  Which is just what my poor face needs… that and a humidifier.  I have a mini one at my desk and I swear it helps too!  #AiWbeautytrick
