Perlier Imperial Honey Body Butter

If you haven't been battered with snow yet, consider yourself lucky! The snow hasn't been cleared yet and we are expecting yet more snow this week! I'm a Mass Transit Commuter and take an Express Bus in and out of the City each day, which means standing at a bus shelter in all kinds of weather including winter winds. Then the heating indoors finishes totally drying out my skin. It's definitely NOT a pretty picture!

Keeping my skin hydrated is not always so easy! My skin ends up very dry in winter whether I'm indoors or outdoors. During the day I'll re-apply lotion after washing my hands, but I like using something a bit thicker at night. Especially on hands, elbows, knees and feet. With feet I like to put on something really hydrating and then put on sleep socks so it can really penetrate, and one of the products I am using right now is one I thought I should put on your radar.

About Perlier Imperial Honey Body Butter:

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Formulated with the honey of Black Bees and Royal Jelly (Think super nourishing!)

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Scented with notes of honey and oriental woods (Think perfect year round)

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Honey is one of the foundations of the Perlier line and this product has been re-formulated to improve hydration!

My Take:

I love that this is not actually super thick so it smooths on easily and is super hydrating, with ingredients like Shea Butter, Cocoa Seed Butter, Avocado Oil, Jojoba Seed Oil, as well as honey and royal jelly you can literally feel your skin just drink this in! And with this being the time of year where ticking off folks on your Holiday Shopping list on a budget gets more challenging each year, purchasing this on HSN insures you will get it a great price, here: http://bit.ly/GT2CdC

So Butterfly, what is your go-to skin hydrator for winter?

{#Beauty Review} My daytime/night-time #skincare one-two punch! @PURattitude + #RadiantwithAVEENO #SleepoverInfluenster

I've been using a skincare regimen that's been really showing positive results for me and I just had to share it with you!

I'm a big fan of serums and have been using PUR Attitude's 'Fountain of Youth' Serum during the day and in the evening after removing makeup I have been using Aveeno's Positively Radiant Intensive Night Cream and  I can tell you this combination has been a major one/two punch for my skin, they have been doing so much for my skin that even family and friends have noticed a difference, and what I love is how quickly I noticed the difference using them.

PUR Attitude Fountain of Youth Serum

By Day: About PUR Attitude 'Fountain of Youth Serum':

This non-toxic, anti-aging serum combines peptide science with an exclusive blend of Hyaluronix technology to visibly increase the collagen and elastin matrix for firmer skin and less visible wrinkles. It's dubbed as a Botox alternative and much like the Fountain of Youth of Lore, is said to be able to 'turn back the hands of time'!

Dramatic Results Include:

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - a 754% Increase in skin oxygenation

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - a 128% Boost in collagen

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - a 90% Increase in skin hydration

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - an 85% Increase in cell renewal

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - a 56% Reduction in the appearance of wrinkles

A 1 fl oz bottle is equal to a 6 to 8 week supply! (I am so happy I got a chance to meet the team behind this fantastic brand at Beauty Press Spotlight Day last year, you can see our original coverage of it HERE)

Aveeno Active Naturals Intensive Night Cream + Sleep Mask in Influenster Box!

By Night: About AVEENO Positively Radiant Intensive Night Cream:

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Brightens and evens skin tone

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Reduces skin dullness and improves luminosity

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Helps banish Brown Spots

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ -  Proven concentration of Active Naturals Total Soy Complex boosted with tone-evening vitamin B3

My Take:

I normally like to let each product have it's own day in the sun and feature them seperately, but because they have worked so well for me using them daily in tandem, I had to share them with you together. The day serum isn't cheap at $90 for the 1 fl oz, but for me price isn't nearly as important as efficacy is. This product works, and I noticed a difference immediately, and on the few days that I don't use it, I notice it and that says alot because I'm using quality cosmetics. So if on a day I don't use the serum I can still notice a difference made up, then that's proof in the pudding it's doing what it says it does! What I love is that a very little goes a long way with this. My skin is oil/acne prone and this did not clog my pores and just makes my skin feel incredible and the firming properties are really noticeable!

As you guys know I have been testing Aveeno Active Naturals before receiving this wonderful bundle of love from Influenster (which included a sleep mask, how cute is that?), you can read HERE for our previous coverage of the line, but I can tell you that despite using such a phenomenal serum by day, after I wash off my makeup when I go to put my Aveeno Active Naturals Intensive Night Cream on, my skin literally drinks it in! I love the scent and even make sure to put it on my neck and decolletage at night too! It makes my face feel softer and smoother and in a very short time I noticed a difference in brown spots and my skin's luminosity. I have a lot of brown spots and acne scars which I normally cover up with makeup if I get enough time before running out the door in the morning. With  this night cream I actually feel like I'm addressing the problem in a way that makes a more permanent difference than makeup can alone. And at $16.99 for the 17 oz jar this one is definitely a steal!

These are both working very well as a skin 'tag team' of sorts! And considering my skin is oily/acne prone, I love that neither one clog my pores, nor do they make my skin feel greasy in any way. On days where time is crazy and I forget to use either one I do see a difference and it's a great reminder to stick to this effective skin care routine!
