March Beauty Faves

Today's the day! I'm sharing my current favorite beauty products with you as promised, each month. Sorry I missed February, but it was a short month... haha! Check out January's here! As you can tell I am a huge fan of Clinique products, their 'Take The Day Off' Cleansing Balm is on repeat; I can't live without it. They also recently introduced this new Vitamin C program that includes a  Daily Booster (serum that you add to your moisturizer) and these fresh pressed powder cleansers  that you use in the AM to give you the ultimate hit of Vitamin C - it's that little extra kick in the morning that makes my skin feel fresh and bright. See more below! 


The packets come in 7 day or 28 day sets -  I did the 7 day challenge and LOVED. My skin was glowing and people were giving me compliments on day 3. I'm a BIG fan of Vitamin C anything and have been loyal to the Kiehls line reducing concentrate, so I was a little skeptical of the Clinique products showing results. Definitely super impressed with the results to the point that I just got a 7 day set for Andy! Since he barely puts ANYTHING on his face, I feel like we are going to see even more amazing results with him. Going forward I think I'll include the 7 day sets every few months to give me a little Vitamin C boost.

Other products I'm loving: 

I just started trying Korres Greek Yoghurt primer, and yes, it's actually made with Greek Yogurt protein...26%. It leaves your skin feeling smooth and plump before applying your makeup. I've never been much of a primer girl because I feel like it's always made my skin extra oily but this one doesn't do that and it makes makeup going on extra smooth.

My friend Natalie introduced me to two products recently (she tries ALL. THE. THINGS) that I'm really digging: Dr. Dennis Gross's Alpha Beta Daily Face Peel and  Dr G. Collagen Mask! Funny enough, after I used the Alpha Beta Face Peel I saw that Chriselle Lim uses them almost everyday when she travels! The peel has five alpha and beta hydroxy acids and is designed to fight fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores and uneven skin texture. I'm headed to Mexico in a few weeks, so I'm definitely going to stock up to keep my skin glowy and fresh. The other product,  Dr G. Collagen Mask, is so amazing for rehydration and a boost of collagen. I tried it on our Catalina weekend getaway and I woke up the next day with literally glowing skin. I remember Andy saying "Wow, Catalina looks good on you!"

I'm always trying out new products on IG story, so you can get the 411 before it hits the blog if you follow me on Instagram! Btw, trying to get Andy on a skincare regimen... #sendhelp.
