What better way to sell products than with testimonials! I hate those blogs that just regurgitate press release information and don't actually tell you if they've used the product and liked it. So I vow to not ever do that! I plan to tell you what I use, how I use it and how I like it (as honestly as possible without getting myself fired!).
Here are the products I use on a daily basis and a note on why I use them and what they've done for my skin.
AFA Cream Cleanser
It all starts with a cleanser. It seems like a simple enough thing; wash your face. But my skin tends to dry out pretty easily, so finding the right cleanser has been an adventure. Biopelle offers 6 cleansers, all of which are nice, but this is the one for me! It's gentle, it removes my make-up nicely and it doesn't leave my skin feeling dry or flaky.
AFA Exfoliating Gel
Keeping my skin exfoliated not only leaves it feeling smooth and soft, it also keeps more pores clear of the impurities that have caused my acne breakouts over the years. I've used all three strengths as my skin needs have changed, which is one of the great things about this line, being able to customize it to my current needs.
One of the first things I fell in love with was how smooth my skin feels. There were days when I would get out of the shower and visibly see the flakey skin on my forehead. No amount of moisturizer helped that. But within a few days of using the AFA Exfoliating Gel I was flake free and loving it.
Over time I saw a great improvement in my acne, I still may get a random pimple here or there, but that's usually because I skipped using my Exfoliating Gel. Even still, the days of having a chin full of pimples or even those deep down, really painful pimples, are long gone.
I love that this gel is so light; it dries fast so I can keep going. It's easy to apply; fragrance and dye free, all great things for my regimen and my sensitive skin.
PRESCRIBEDsolutions The Eyes Have It !
Okay, I know that this term gets used loosely sometimes, but I just have to say...MIRACLE PRODUCT!
I mentioned in my previous post that I'm a new mom. My 8-month old sleeps like an angel most nights, but when she is sick she tends to wake up a lot throughout the night. Not long ago we were having a rough week. After a few sleepless nights, I was looking pretty haggard. I decided it was time to try The Eyes Have It. That day at work, several people stopped to say it looked like she was finally sleeping through the night again and I was actually excited to tell them that she had been up most of the night and that it was just this amazing product that was making me look so rested.
For me it is all about the firming ingredient, a hibisucs esculentus extract. This extract has a "Botox-like" action, causing muscles to freeze, giving them a firmer look. Unlike Botox, this only lasts for a day, making it the perfect fix for new moms. You can really feel the lift around your eye area.
There are also ingredients to combat puffiness and dark circles under the eyes. I can't really speak to the results there as my eyes don't usually get too puffy or dark, but maybe that's because I've been using this every day!
PRESCRIBEDsolutions Stop The Clock Triple Action Anti-aging Day Cream with SPF 50 PFA+++
I'm really big on protecting my skin now so that it will look great 20 years from now, so the SPF 50 and PFA +++ rating make me feel that I'm doing all that I can to prevent UV damage.
I also really liked the idea of a Triple Action sunscreen; I don't have a ton of time to layer products. So the DNA Repair, Anti-oxidant Protection and Firming Peptides all sounded like good things to add to my regimen.
So those are all of the reasons I tried Stop the Clock, here's why I keep using it:
I GLOW!!
My skin has never looked better than it did while I was pregnant. After I had my baby, my skin looked dull and lifeless. I kept using my AFA Exfoliating Gel, hoping that it would bring my skin back to life, but I soon realized I needed a change. After a few months of using Stop the Clock my skin was looking radiant and healthy, to the point that people stopped to ask me what I was doing for my skin to look so healthy.
I don't know which of the ingredients in the product brought back my glow, but I'm loving it!
And as if that weren't enough already, PRESCRIBEDsolutions products can be boosted to address additional concerns. So I added the Brightening Booster to mine to help clear up the little bit of melasma (pregnancy mask) that I had. It worked like a charm!
OC Eight Professional Mattifying Gel
As much as I love Stop the Clock, it leaves me looking pretty shiny. A dab of OC Eight and I'm back to True Matte and ready to apply my make-up! OC Eight is my baby, the little product that could. I think I'll write an entire blog about OC Eight, because there are lots of tricks on how you can use the product better and many reasons for you to love it!
And that's my daily regimen! I've been playing around with a few new products and also have some others that I use on occasion that I'll review in other blogs. Did I mention that I'm a Biopelle addict?
