Skin Care

MY SKIN CARE HISTORY

Part of total fitness is taking care of your skin. My story is probably like so many others' stories. Not until I was in my early 30s did I use sunscreen and then only a low SPF on my face, completely skipping my neck and chest. You can see the difference too. My neck and chest are pretty damaged. But at least I was consistent and I wasn't one to sun tan much so I never burned. I did for a few years go to tanning beds in the spring to get a start on a tan. So regret that.

As far as cleansing and skin care maintenance I wore very little make up until just a few years ago. With raising children, working full time and doing all I had to do, make up wasn't high on my list of priorities. I wore a little blush, eye liner and mascara and that was it. I rarely washed it off when I went to bed. Bad huh? But it's the truth. 

I have almost always used Olay cleanser and moisturizer and that is it. Once in a while I would try something else but I wasn't in to spending a lot of money on things like that. This summer though Nudu Natural Beauty sent me a selection of their products and I was delighted to try them out. They are not compensating me if you buy anything, they just wanted me to share if I liked the products.

I have went through full bottles now of the cleanser, astringent, and moisturizer and well as eye cream. I love the way the products smell and I love knowing they are all natural because as I get older I am more conscious of what I put in and on my body. A few weeks ago they sent me a bottle of their renewal cream and I used almost all of it before sharing my thoughts in this post. My thoughts are, this is a lovely product and I will continue to use the line. It is fresh, simple and just my style. Not too fussy but pleasant and kind to my skin.

My advice to everyone, is don't wait until you are my age to start taking care of your skin. You are worth being kind to yourself and so am I!

That's it for this week!

Peace!
