Fall skin care routine 2023

Fall skin care routine from top left: eye cream / neck cream / day cream / hand cream / skin cleanser / body butter / night neck cream / night cream /

The nights are getting cooler and the days are getting slightly crisper! Hello almost fall! This means it is time to transition our skin care routine from summer sun, heat, and dry skin to fall moisture. Love this!

While my neck, day cream and eye cream remain the same all year long, I am moving back to Tahitian Monoi scented body butter for fall because it is a warmer floral scent than my summer vanilla and coconut products. I love this scent! I wish there was a perfume to go along with it!

In addition to switching things up, ReVive has a new neck cream for nighttime! Love! I have been using the regular neck cream since my late twenties, so I am thrilled to start using their new neck cream. This is a must have! Of course, the ReVive night cream I use adds moisture and repairs skin while I sleep, I really love their products.

L’Occitane hand cream review

L’Occitane Vanilla Bouquet

L’Occitane hand cream is an oldie but a goodie. If you searched for the perfect, non-greasy hand cream early in your life, you most certainly came across L’Occitane hand cream. It is famous for it’s non-greasy formula and its’ ability to repair hands. But, did you know there are additional scents beyond the standard shea butter fragrance? There are!

My absolute favorite scent from the L’Occitane hand cream collection is Vanilla Bouquet. You might think this is a traditional vanilla bean fragrance, but I can assure, it is not. In fact, L’Occitane Vanilla Bouquet does not really smell like vanilla at all. It is a very soft, floral scent which is light and works well all year long. I am in love with it!

In addition to L’Occitane hand cream in vanilla bouquet, there are additional skin care products with this scent. I am currently loving the body cream, which is thick and moisturizing, as well as beautifully scented! Love!

If you are looking for hand cream which does its’ job, and accompanying skin care products, you might fall in love with L’Occitane hand cream in vanilla bouquet. I know I did!

So, without further ado, I rate L’Occitane hand cream vanilla bouquet five out of five stars! Love it!

Have you tried L’Occitane hand cream yet? If not, I highly recommend giving it a try. It quickly repairs hands and has been a favorite since the 1990s.

Thanks for stopping by!

ReVive neck renewal cream review

revive neck renewal cream review

I am scratching my head trying to figure how I have had this blog for over thirteen years and I have not reviewed my favorite beauty product yet! How in the world did this happen? Well, I am correcting my wrongdoing now by telling you all about this fabulous neck cream from ReVive.

When I was twenty-eight years old, I decided to get serious about my skin care. I felt myself pushing thirty, and the writing was on the wall that skin care would be an important part of aging gracefully. Fast forward to my late forties, and I am still doing the same skin care routine I developed when I was twenty-eight.

The most important part of my skin care routine is this neck cream. While I have tested out others along the way, I always go back to my old faithful, ReVive Neck Renewal Cream. Since I don’t believe in using fillers or plastic surgery, using creams which actually work is very important to me. This neck cream has kept my neck skin firm and wrinkle free over the years; even after losing forty pounds almost two years ago.

In addition to keeping my neck skin firm, ReVive Neck Renewal Cream contains spf, which is really an important part of combating the aging process and protecting your skin. The cream is smooth and doesn’t leave a sticky residue; it blends in really well leaving skin soft and well balanced. Love that!

So, if you are looking for the ultimate neck cream, this is it. If ReVive ever stops producing this neck cream, I will have to organize and stage a large-scale protest because I need this cream!
