Grapefruit Goodness

Believe it or not, I am not a beauty product junkie. I do, from time to time, have my weak moments of spending $12 on nail polish, but other than that, I’m pretty good at only sticking to products I know I love, and especially in drugstores where it’s so easy to rack up a basket full. One of my newest loves? Yes To Grapefruit skincare products. Hello body butter // dark circle correcting cream // towelettes // SPF moisturizer // serum // scrub // and more!

Grapefruit is the newest member of the Yes To family, whose products blend powerful fruit acids with ingredients that help to reduce hyper-pigmentation, correct skin damage, and enhance radiance.

Why grapefruit? I could give you all the science behind it, but all you really need to know is the rich Vitamin C found the the extract is great for enhancing skin radiance and evening skin tone– something I’ve always struggled with. I apply the Dark Spot Correcting Body Cream right after showers, and after only a week my skin is feeling so much softer, and I’m already in the midst of saying goodbye to any lingering dark spots. Plus, I don’t even need to tell you how perfect the citrus smells. Like a tropical getaway in the middle of this dry and bitter winter.

The best part about all of this? No mail-order. No brand reps. No wandering around department store beauty counters. All Yes To products can be found at stores like Target and Walgreens at drugstore prices that won’t break the bank. You can buy them online here and here, but I just dare you to tell me you’re not within five miles of one of the stores listed here :)

SPF

I’m excited to present a little video I did with Bona Clara (remember my review of their skin care line here?) I got to show off one of my favorite products of theirs– the SPF moisturizer. I’m no vlogger so go easy on me! :)

The SPF 29 sunscreen + moisturizer runs at $40 and is worth every penny– I am SO thrilled to not have to worry about greasy sunscreen all over my face this summer! Click here to shop the SPF that’s right for your age.

Love your skin. At any age.

I have a bad habit of taking a lot of things for granted, and one of those things is my skin. In my twenties, I’m out of my adolescent break-out phase, and not yet old enough to have to worry about my skin aging, so I should be in the clear! …Or am I? Thinking about all the late nights I come home and flop into bed without taking off my makeup… all of the carefree summer days I spend lounging in the sun… the stress caused by any twenty-something’s life that is bound to wreck havoc on my skin… now I’m a little more awake and concerned.

Bona Clara is an educational beauty brand whose purpose is to teach women about the changes happening to their skin as they age, and to help that skin age beautifully and healthily. This is not your average infomercial, skin-care-party retailer. They are truly inspiring and their products have left me feeling like I just walked out of a spa.

Bona Clara Skin Care

Whether you’re in your 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s or older, Bona Clara offers products targeted to the skin challenges faced by each age group. Buy the five-step process– Cleanser, Scrub, Toner, Serum, and Treatment Cream– or buy what you feel your face needs most. I am not a product girl {as you can see by this blog’s lacking beauty section!}, but I couldn’t be happier from what I’ve tried in the Stages of Beauty line so far.

Bona Clara is generously giving away a Cleanser + Scrub duo pack (and I have to admit, these are two of my favorite products in the line). Giveaway ends Friday, January 11th at 12pm EST, so get entering!
