Hello Ladies,

I am trying something I think would be fun and I would like you to participate in it if you want to. This is a totally vain idea that I came up with because I am always looking and asking for the next best thing for good hair and skin care. For those of you who know me you know that I have complained about my hair and skin problems since the beginning of time. I know you are all sick of hearing about it. Although I want this to be for women of all ages, some of us are now entering the more complicated years of taking care of ourselves and it seems my bathroom is filling up more rapidly than before with trial and error products. I have also had a few procedures from my dermatologist that I liked and did not like. So my idea is that we start working together. I have created a blog for us to share our information. Just simply post a product or a procedure that you tried and liked or tried and didn’t like. Just to name a few, this can include makeup, skincare, haircare, perfume, dermatologist procedures, injectables, cosmetic surgery, facials, (I heard about an oxygen facial that I would love to hear from someone who had one), or anything that you found helpful and want to share.

My sisters and I have been relaying good product finds to each other for years and I thought it would be fun to get more people involved to offer a wider and more up-to-date range of information to help narrow down this endless list of beauty aids. If you happen to try something you like, share it with us! This could be fun. Xxoo Laurin

Obagi Blender with Retin A

Also, still really like the Obagi blender with the retinol mixed together. Use it most nights. I have really seen a difference with skin problems. I definitely think my skin seems more even toned. And anyone who knows me knows I'm picky. Hopefully that will continue. So far so good which says a lot because sometimes what works for a while stops working. Not so with this.

For anyone who has puffy eyes sometimes or frequently like me (I think I inherited this problem from my father's side of the family) I have found a good product that seems to work. Actually two products that help a lot. One is the Skin Effects by Dr. Dover Penetrating Eye Treatment Mask. (get it at CVS) It is this mini eye cloth that you soak in a blue solution then place over eyes for 7 to 10 minutes. It is a nice little relaxing thing to do and I think it works.. Also there is an eye cream by Vivite which has glycolic and caffeine in it that also tightens things up.. I got this at my dermatologist's office but I'm sure you can get it on line. I really like both.
