Happy Monday, all! Summer is right around the corner and with it comes more bare skin. There’s no better time to get ahead and start giving your skin some much needed TLC to get it prepped and I’ve discovered some pretty great products to do just that.

  1. Rodin Olio Lusso Luxury Face Oil: I am IN LOVE with this oil. I have been using it for the past 3 weeks and my skin has never been so smooth, so hydrated. I was so nervous to put an oil of any kind on my face since my skin already is oily, but this product for some reason is not only a luxurious experience when put on each night, but it has only improved my skin’s texture. Seriously, if you are going to spend money on anything this month, make it this product. It is so amazing.
  2. Kate Somerville Exfolikate Body: I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, this product truly, truly works. If you suffer from chest or back breakouts this will work to render them obsolete when used a 2-3 times a week. Bring on the strapless dresses!
  3. BareMinerals Tinted Moisturizer: In the summer I try to wear as little makeup as possible because otherwise it’ll just melt right off but this tinted moisturizer does double duty by providing SPF while moisturizing and providing light coverage so it is ideal. Swap out that heavy foundation and pressed powder and rely on this little guy.
  4. SkinCeuticals C+AHA: This lightweight serum is used right after you wash your face to wear all day as it works to neutralize free radicals, prevent environmental damage and has glycolic and lactic acids to subtly exfoliate to reveal smoother skin. I am newly in love with SkinCeuticals’ serums- I use this one at night as well.

Hope you all enjoyed a restful weekend as I did. Cheers to a new week!

    How did I not know there was a body version of ExfoliKate? I need to pick that up immediately!
