Hi, all! Guest blogger Mel here! I’m here to tell you all about my
skin care routine! Our faces are
the first impression that others get, so it is super important to take care of
them.
I have always
had really good skin that doesn’t break out a lot – I know, I know, you hate
me. That is, until I moved to New
York City. My skin became
awful! I broke out everywhere, and
I needed to fix it. I tried doing
everything – even washing my face 3 or 4 times a day. Nothing worked until I found my skin savior: Rhonda
Allison products. Whenever I get a facial, the facialist
always tells me how much they love Rhonda Allison and they don’t try to push
their salon’s products on me.
I start out each
day by cleansing with the Rhonda Allison Citrus Gel Cleanser. It is their least harsh cleanser, and
leaves my skin feeling so fresh! I
just wet my face and put a small amount on my fingertip. The greatest thing is that when you
want more bubbles, you just splash more water on your face, not more
cleanser. I have their largest
bottle (120 ml), and it has lasted over a year, using it twice a day. And it’s perfect for all skin types!
Once a week or
so I mix things up and use the Rhonda Allison Beta Green Tea Cleanser, which
has just a bit more of a kick. But
if you have dry skin you should probably stay away from this.
Afterwards I
wait about five minutes just to enjoy the nice clean feeling. Then I follow up by using the RhondaAllison eZinc Protection Cream. I
love it because it is a moisturizer and sun protector all in one! And it has anti-oxidants! It is SPF 18 so is perfect as daily
protection against the sun. If you
don’t currently wear sun protection everyday, start doing so now! Most wrinkles are due to sun exposure!!!
That is my
morning routine. Super simple, but
also super important!
At night I again
wash my face with the Citrus Gel Cleanser and then follow it up by using the
Rhonda Allison Blemish Complex Cream.
This is by far my favorite product. It is the perfect acne fighter. I apply it all over my face, although it is also good for
spot treatments as well. It can
also be used in the mornings, but I prefer using it in the evening because that
is when more facial cells are replaced.
Rhonda Allison also has a Blemish Serum, but I have found it to
be a bit too harsh on my face.
In the winter I
sometimes substitute a moisturizer for the Blemish Complex Cream. I currently use the Mare’s Milk
Moisturizer, but it has been discontinued. The next time I order I am going to try out either the
Rhonda Allison Ultra Hydration Cream or the Rhonda Allison Moisture AuLait. I have it narrowed down to
these two because the Ultra Hydration Cream is supposed to increase moisture by
300% and the Moisture Au Lait has olive oil in it, which is super good for
skin. (Sometimes I put olive oil
on my feet with a cotton ball, put on socks, and then head to bed.)
So there you
have it! My daily skin care
routine! Not a ton of salons in my
area carry Rhonda Allison, so I just order it online.
And for a
special treat, try these Basin White Salt Scrubs. All of my friends have recently been telling me how soft my
skin is. Although my Danish
heritage is probably the main reason for it, this product gives me an extra
kick. The scrub separates, so I
mix it up with a spoon and then rub it all over my body while standing in the
shower. After a few minutes I turn
the shower on and rinse it off. It
leaves my skin soooo soft! But
here is the most important part: like they told me before going in the Dead Sea,
do not shave beforehand! Otherwise
your skin will burn, burn, burn!
I hope you
enjoyed my guest blog post!
