It’s Friday, and the sun is shining

There’s nothing like getting 329 spam comments to start the weekend off with an bang. (And this is before we’ve even finished our first soy latte!)

This week the sun has been shining and it’s feeling more and more like spring here in Northern Nevada, which means we need to take that extra step to protect our skin from the sun’s harmful rays. We used to think that foundation or moisturizer with an SPF was enough, but really it’s not. (However, they do give us extra protection, so definitely use them when you can).

For complete broad spectrum sun protection, there’s nothing that compares to La Roche-Posay Anthelios SX. Using a revolutionary formula containing Mexoryl SX and Parsol 1789, Anthelios SX provides the highest daily photo-stable UVA protection available in the US.

Anthelios SX La Roche-Posay

Anthelios SX is a light moisturizer with a non-greasy texture that’s fragrance free and dermatologist-tested. It does not smell like sunscreen, look like sunscreen, or make our face feel like a greased-up sticky mess, as most sunscreens do.

We got ours at our dermatologist’s office for $29. It’s also available to purchase on the La Roche-Posay site.

Seriously, girls. Don’t leave home without it.

The Madonna of Cleansers

Biomedic Purifying CleanserEver since our mom took us to the Lancome counter in ninth grade and treated us to our first REAL skincare regimen (Ablutia Gel Cleanser, Tonique Douceur, Clarifiance Moisturizer) we have realized the benefits of taking good care of our skin.

Many years and many, MANY products later, La Roche-Posay’s Biomedic Purifying Cleanser stands out to us as the leader in facial cleansers. With glycolic acid, vitamin E and antioxidants, this gentle cleanser deeply cleans pores while improving the texture and tone of skin.

If you’re prone to breakouts or would like to brighten your skin, this cleanser is for you.

Unfortunately, this product can only be purchased through your dermatologists office.
