Hi y’all!
Long time no talk…I’m trying for round two with my blog. This time I decided to post about my current favorite skincare. My skin type is dry combination and occasionally sensitive. Lately, I’ve really been loving myself and my skin: which means I’ve spent most of my paychecks at Sephora, Ulta, Riley Rose, etc. You get the gist!
Recently, these two brand have stood out to me:
- Body Merry, a beauty line based out NYC that is animal friendly and uses the motto “get happy about your skin!”
- Kopari, a brand co-created by an organic chef, that focuses on an non sulfate and nonparaben formulas with coconut oil as it’s main ingredient in it’s products.
Body Merry has truly changed my skin. During the summer, my skin is constantly bombarded with sweat from the Florida heat and breakouts from heavy sunscreen. As a result, I need something that’s going to give my skin that surge of moisture it needs after long days. The Retinol Surge Moisturizer gives me a jump to anti aging benefits while calming my skin in the morning. While the Breakthrough Night cream gives me baby soft skin in the morning plus the ingredients are bomb. I use the Super Shield Scar Gel on my acne scars on my face and in al honesty there has been some fading through out this summer (could be this or time or other things haha).
Now Kopari is a really cool line, to me personally. The main ingredient for all of its products is coconut oil and the owners and the company claim it is nothing but the highest grade oil. The brand’s “claim to fame” has been its multitasking Coconut Melt which can be used from head to toe for hydration and other benefits. However, I have really been loving their Coconut Rose Toner and ‘Save Face’ Oil. The toner is great for traveling and keeps my face refreshed, especially when I get done with a day of air travel. Plus it smells like roses, my favorite. The ‘save face’ oil is amazing for those days where my skin is feeling really dull. It’s super light weight and has awesome anti aging benefits, as well. When I put it on before I go to bed, I wake up feeling like my fresh is plump and even more brighter looking (throughout time using it).
Hope you enjoyed my quick summary of my current summer favorites!
cheers,
Casey
