items Ladies over 40 - like me -this one's for you. I always get compliments on my skin - I like to joke and say it's because I grew up in Wi and we didn't see the sun for half the year, but truth be told I've been in Arizona for longer now than I lived in...

Things you can get at the drugstore
LeMieux
LeMieux has been my go-to for YEARS. I have always purchased it from aesthetician or LeMieux directy so I was SHOOK when I googled where to purchase it for this board and saw it's available from WalMart and tbh they have sales where the vendor rarely...

Le Mieux Derma Relief Serum 1oz
This vitamin C serum gives your skin radiance that you can't even imagine. Yes, there was a time that I didn't understand the point of all the serums…then I was introduced to Le Mieux skincare and saw the transformation especially with this serum. It... that revives and refreshes for a softer, brighter, and more even complexion. I use this in the morning after my hyaluronic serum ***PSA do NOT forget sun protection especially when using a vit C serum.

Another favorite moisturizer from Le Mieux. This is a lightweight yet creamy moisturizer that firms the skin with peptides, while nourishing with nourishing sacha inchi oil to smooth wrinkles and improve elasticity. Good for normal to dry skin types....

Le Mieux Eye Wrinkle Corrector Cream 0.5oz
French pharmacy finds I love!
On a recent trip to Paris I decided to see what all the hype about Parisian skincare so took myself to a local pharmacy and chatted with a pharmacist for a while. While she complimented my skin she did recommend I try the Condensé Paris on skincare a...
This is a lightweight under eye serum that delivers. Just one drop is enough for both eyes. I use day & night for the added anti-aging & anti-wrinkle benefit. I can attest that it does effectively fights dark circles too. Condensé Paris produ...

I asked for a recommendation for a thick cream for night and this is what she gave me. Yes, it's labeled a masque, but on the back it clearly states can be worn overnight - which is what was explained to be when I purchased it. The thick creamy textu...
Youth Creamy Mask
It's never great to have your combination skin pointed out so bluntly, but the pharmacist was right I do have an oily Tzone so she recommended this. I use 1-2 drops (it's enough) in the morning and apply only to my TZone and I notice the decrease in ...
Purifying Rebalancing Serum
This isn't Condensé Paris, but I did buy it in Paris and can't seem to find it in America. I never used a retinol before this one. I was honestly a little scared to. I mix 1-2 drops in with my night cream and have noticed a huge difference in my skin...
Retinol Supradose
And who would I be if I was at a French pharmacy and didn't pick up the viral trend A313. This is an ointment, not a cream. I did notice a slight irritation with it the first time I used it then realized the my skin needed to be completely dry and to...
A313 French Pharmacy Vitamin A Retinoid Cream 50g

Bioderma Atoderm Cream Ultra Moisturizer
Things you can get at the drugstore
Here are a few of my favorites you can find at any drugstore.

My latest Supergoop love is the Glowscreen. It's the hint of color I seek for those make up free days that evens out skin tone and protects from the damage of the sun. It comes in 4 shades and 3 sizes so perfect for traveling.
