PTB Spring Reboot : Skincare


 

Clensing ( washing your face )  
Cleansers : Cethaphil , Phisoderm, 

  • Splash warm water on your face
  • Dispense product on your palm
  • With your finger tips , use upward and outward motions to apply product 
  • Once you scrubed your face . rinse it away with warm water
  • Take a towel and pat face dry 


Toner : Is debated in the beauty industry, I personally think it does a great job getting rid of excess dirt and restoring PH balance in your skin. If you want to skip it , Ill leave it up to you . 
Burts Bee's Toner ,witch hazel are my favorites though what you have on hand is good.

  • Wet a cotton ball with warm water
  • apply toner to cotton ball 
  • Using upward and outward motions 
  • Avoid eye contact 

Exfoliate : This is extremly important , you only have to do it 2x's a week. Since you shave it is a form of exfoliation your doing it already . Exfoliation is extremly important. 
St Ives Apricot Scrub is my favorite 
  • wet your face with warm water 
  • Take a quarter size amout of product 
  • apply it too yout finger tips
  • in circle motions apply the exfoliant
  • avoid eye area 
  • Take a warm wash cloth and remove the product 
  • Rinse face with warm water to get rid of grains
  • On days you exfoliated do toner after 


Moisturize : Very important , even if you have oily skin or acne .What happens is the sebaceous gland (gland that secrets oil and keep skin protected) sees that your skin is dry , goes in too panic mode producing more oil to protect your skin. I know if your skin is oily you want to dry it out . Its very important to moiturize . It keeps the gland at bay and my reduce your break outs or oily feeling. 
Dispense product on your palm using upward and outward motions 



  • With your finger tips , use upward and outward motions to apply product 
So this helps you get started or if you have gone pro a little brush up for you . If you have any questions more than happy to assist

Saturday Sheet Masking

On Instagram you have been seeing people wearing sheet masks. This is now a two year old trend. I've been wanting to try , while in target the other night. I found a whole bunch of sheet masks . I will say that the prices vary. The mask I purchased was $1.80 USD . The weather extremely cold this evening in the northeastern United States. What a perfect night to mask. 
Sheet mask 
 
 Reading directions the keep on the face for 10 minutes 
 
The mask feels like the texture of a moist towelette, slight oily consistency. The smell is a robust coconut, the package says the smell of vacation I agree. 
 
 
 
I applied the mask it's was cooling and soothing on my dry combination skin. The mask did slightly feel intense when I applied it . I put on some music for ten minutes, dreaming of beachs,warmth and summer vacations. When I removed the mask my skin felt tacky that soon disappeared. My skin felt glowing and soft . I'll say I'm a fan , also eager to try more.

One of my favorite YouTube personalities on the planet is Mr. Kate (Kate Albrecht )  .  I tripped across the Mr. Kate channel about maybe 3 years ago. I was researching how to paint leather purses with acrylic paint. Id liken it too an " Alice through the Looking Glass " type metaphor. Transporting me into the positive, colorful world of Mr. Kate!( Mr.Kate.com )

My favorite is “ OMGWe're Coming Over “ the two have a chemistry on camera that is humorous, real and engaging. Over the years as Mr. Kate the brand expands and you get to watch it grow. I found myself cheering for Kate, Joey and their amazing team as each new bench mark was meet. They love what they do, work hard to deliver content to you. It shows in the quality of the channel.
