Happy Friday!!

Who has a skincare routine that they try to do everyday? I do!! As I get older (hitting that big 3-0 recently), I get more paranoid just thinking about wrinkles and how my skin will age. And since right now I don't have hardly any wrinkles (thanks asian genes!), I try my best to prevent them in the early stage before they even have a chance to form right now. So every day and night I do my usual skincare routine and make sure I put on all the creams and lotions on my face. It's been a habit that is good for my skin in the long term!

The company, Charleston Naturally was super nice and offered to send me some skincare products to try out as part of my regular skincare routine. And since I've always on the hunt for new skincare products, I was happy when they sent me two Dr. Hauschka products to try out and see how I like it. They also offer all kinds of organic hair, body, and beauty products that's safe and effective for you and the whole family. Something that's really good to look into. :)

First Impression: I was really excited when I saw they sent me the regenerating eye cream. If I had to choose any skincare product that I'm semi-obsessed about it would be eye creams. I've tried a couple and knowing how wrinkles can easily form around the eyes. I'm all about trying to minimize those as much as possible. According to the instructions, this can be used under makeup so I treated it as a daytime eye cream. For the past three weeks, it's been the first product that I put on underneath my eyes before putting on my primer and foundation. It absorbs into the skin fairly quickly leaving no greasy residue at all which is a plus! And since I've been using this daily, I can see a slight change in my skin which has appeared more firmer looking to me. As for the normalizing day oil, this is mainly to help diminish the appearance of pores and reduce blemishes. And since I do have very few blemishes, I dotted the day oil around my cheeks and nose area daily just to see. But unfortunately I started to break out..*sad face* I'm not entirely sure if it was the day oil or the new foundation I was using but I stopped using the day oil after a week and my skin cleared up. So I'm going to say it was the day oil.. I have sensitive skin so any new products that I use, I carefully monitor my skin everyday to make sure I notice any change - good or bad.

Both products mentions that it helps mature skin but like I had said earlier, it honestly doesn't hurt to use it while we're younger to help prevent for the long term. :)

Dotted under the eyes and gently rub the eye cream around.

Prices: $58.96 for the Regenerating eye cream & $42.96 for the Normalizing day oil.

Overall: If I were to purchase either products, I would definitely go with the regenerating eye cream. It's lightweight and it may be an extra step in my makeup routine but it absorbs so quickly that it's not even a hassle. It also has a light citrus smell that is not bad at all. The normalizing day oil I might give that another try some day but as of now, I'm holding off. I think if someone had non-sensitive skin then I would say give it a try. But my skin is so fickle sometimes, I have to be careful.

Now onto the best part!! Charleston Naturally was generous enough to offer one lucky SheisLovely reader their own Dr. Hauschka regenerating eye cream.
