I have a pretty pink Clarisonic Classic. I love it. But everytime a new color Clarisonic comes out, regardless of color, I always think “Ooo, I want that color too!!!!!” (I’ve restrained myself – I only have the one….)
So if you’ve been on the fence about getting a Clarisonic Mia, here’s a new reason: it now comes in a pretty, pretty lavender, blue, and garnet. The kit also contains a sensitive brush head.
My Clarisonic Classic was a great purchase – and whether it is for travel, your gym bag, or home use, the Mia is a great choice as well!

Ever wake up and your eyes just look…meh? You probably have a few factors going on – dullness, puffiness, and dryness. On those mornings, you might want to try the new SEPHORA COLLECTION Instant Depuffing Roll-On Gel. While it has the micro-massaging beads on the tip are reminiscent of a lot of depuffing products on the market now, this formula tackles dull and puffy skin with moisture, not ingredients like caffeine. While caffeine can be incredibly effective to take down puffiness, it can dry out your skin if you use it regularly. And if your skin is already starting out dry, you are just going to look drier, not wide awake.
The formula contains HydroSenn+, a plant derived moisturizer that continuously moisturizes during the day. It also has light-reflecting pigments to make you look more awake, and red vine leaf extract gets to work on dark circles. I think it’s great that it’s a fragrance free formula – whether your eyes are sensitive or not, adding fragrance to irritated eye skin never works out well in my experience.
I’m excited to try this and a few other of the new products from the SEPHORA COLLECTION skincare line. When I pick them up I’ll be sure to let you know what I think!

I dare say that those of us in New England are snowed in for a day or two.
When the forecast includes “Freezing Fog” (sounds like a Marvel Comics character), you know it will be bitter cold for awhile…and that my skin will be red and raw next time I have to venture outdoors.
So I was glad to read about Dermatone Skin Protector Pommade
in this month’s Shape Magazine, I was pretty excited.
It comes recommended as a must have product from Morgan Arritola, a member of the U.S. Cross-Country Ski Team a woman who understands cold windy weather. It locks in moisturizer, plus it has an SPF of 23, which is great for SPF touch ups on the go.
If there is anything that can prevent raw, icky skin this winter, I’m on board!
