Can skin care products be life changing?
Since I wrote the "Do you like your face" post on Monday, your kind words via email have been incredibly encouraging. Thank you. But each of you also had a burning question.
"What DO you use on your skin?"
In response, I thought I would tell you about my fabulous skin care products. Even better, I contacted the company and they agreed to do a giveaway for my readers. How's THAT for customer service?
Background story. Last October I attended the TypeAMom Conference in Asheville, North Carolina. I had the privilege of meeting Christina, a sponsor of the conference, and a representative for Therapon Skin Care. True story? I asked her about her skin before I knew why she was there. It was a sight to behold!
We bonded over being the tallest girls at the conference and having three daughters of similar age. Then she hit me with it. "Come to my room and let me try out my skin care products on you". Temptress! LOL. Reluctantly, nervously, I agreed.
It changed my life. OK, it changed my face. But that can be life changing.
naked skin. no make up. be nice. |
Up to this point I had moderately taken care of my skin. Infrequent cleansing. Moisturizing with over the counter product. Exfoliate? I can barely spell it, let alone try it.
Christina did her "magic" and this was my response the next day. Goofy I know. But totally unscripted. That's my friend Robin with me...she rocks.
All that to say, the story behind the product and it's creator hooked me, but the results kept me. I use it faithfully morning and night, even my teenage daughter uses it and her skin is flawless. For a teenager, that is ALL kinds of awesome.
The system is four parts. But don't be deterred. They are easy and take very little time. If I can make time for this, so can you. This is what Therapon says about their product.

And just to be clear, Therapon did NOT ask me to write this post. I asked THEM if it was ok. That is when they offered to give away a skin care system. I adore this product, and it really was the perfect response to the "Do you Like your Face?" blog post on Monday.
I don't always love my face. But each day, I'm beginning to love ME more and I am embracing the person God created me to be. Ironically, this week the study I am doing with my girls took us down the path of "real beauty". It's ok to want to be beautiful. But I do hope when I breathe my last, I will be remembered for my heart and my passion for others....for the person I am within...for being beautiful on the INSIDE.
I so desire that for me. For my girls. For each of you.

Is the answer "because I am 42 also and I really do nothing to take of my skin" a good reason to want to win?

ReplyDeleteI'm 40 and I have never done anything to take care of my skin - so yup I would like to win just to try this :)
ReplyDeleteI tweeted again (forgot to add your twitter name the first time, blushing)

I'd love to win because the gentle cleaners don't clean enough and the deep cleaners clean too much. So I'm left with greasy skin and zits or dry skin that's red and splotchy. I really need to find a happy medium.
ReplyDeleteI shared the link on facebook. =D (I'm still crossing my legs too) LOL!
ReplyDeleteI am forever trying to find the *perfect* cleansing combination for my skin -- I want it to stay young-looking and nourished! This product definitely sounds worth a try! Sign me up! :)
ReplyDeleteOk, I tweeted about you. Or it. Or maybe both of you. But yeah, it's there. ;) @blessedbride08
ReplyDeleteI try things here and there and infrequently. I haven't found something that really works yet, and I would love to try this!
ReplyDeleteI tweeted about it (@BBBellezza)
ReplyDeleteI also shared it on facebook. Crossing my fingers!

ReplyDeleteMy skin needs you to pick me! I could use some good skin care.
ReplyDeleteI hope to win because my skin care products are soap and water. That's it. The end.

I never take care of my skin. I rinse it with water from time to time and that is about it, unless I actually wear make up. Then I wash it with a little soap and water. I have never found anything that actually works on my skin. It's either too harsh or just doesn't do anything. I have tried the expensive stuff, and the normal stuff that you just buy at the store. Maybe this would be the trick? Maybe! :-)
ReplyDeleteI would love for my skin to look as gorgeous as yours, hope it's not too late since I'm a year older than you;o)
ReplyDeleteI'm 41 (almost 42) and my skin is horribly oily! And despite the gray on my head I still get blemishes... So frustrating!

Your skin is gorgeous. I ADORE those pics of you. They are SO YOU.
ReplyDeleteYou and Robin - oh, my heart aches for missing y'all.
My skin - it doesn't have luster anymore :-(
Pick me please, my skin is a mess. I have hit some crazy mid life uck and need any help I can get.

I'm entering this because I am about to run out of the best skin care system I have ever used....and I've only used it for the last 6 months. Oh Therapon where have you been all my life....
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. I love my skin-even my scar on my left cheek that I've had since I was two. I've NEVER attempted to cover it w/heavy makeup. It's a part of me, a part of who I am. I wear sunscreen and because of that, I look years younger...(and I'm the OLDER sister).
ReplyDeleteI'm entering this because my sister is always telling me about the newest and latest product, and now I can share this with her!!! I think it will be a fun adventure and relaxing!!!
ReplyDeleteskin care regime, what is that exactly?! for the majority of my 53 years i have used dove soap and oil of olay with a tad of additional sunscreen on soccer/baseball/beach days! recently i have been feeling all of those 53 years and begining to look it too. dare i say it is time for a change??
ReplyDeleteSingle mom of 4 boys.....enough said. Not only does it take a toll on my mental state, but my skin as well. I noticed my first age spot a few weeks ago! Still trying to imagine it away....it's not working. Anyway, I'd love to try something new and fresh that doesn't dry out and irritate my skin...especially in these harsh MI winters. Byt the way, Lisa, you look great with OR without makeup:)
