Summer skin care


I'm envious when I see women with natural, glowing skin. The kind that comes from a full night's sleep and lots of water. And I don't claim to be an expert in skin care (shamefully, I participated in the tanning bed craze a decade ago). But I have finally found a skin care routine I love and I'm hoping it will give me that summer glow (even if I don't get sleep).

I wash my face with a mild cleanser. I'm currently using Cetaphil, but I've used other brands too.

Then I follow with spray hydrating toner and combination skin moisturizer by Yonka. I LOVE this line of all-natural skin care. I had a Yonka facial a few months ago and the entire week afterwards my skin felt wonderful. Yes…a week! I’ve had a facial before and my skin feels hydrated and smooth that day, but I never had such lasting effects.

In the morning, I use Josie Maran Argan Daily SPF 40. This product is chemical-free and is the only sunscreen I’ve ever used that doesn’t feel greasy.

At night, I use the Clarisonia Mia and follow with a Clinique oil-free night cream.

What are your favorite skin care products for summer?
