Skincare Routine

I am a big believer in a daily beauty routine. I started my first skincare routine at 15yrs old it was Clinique 3 step, it has evolved as I got older. I am 39yrs old and never had any work done, no botox or fillers (yet)!

Here is my daily skin care routine and my favorite products, I use them in this order:

Cleanser: Love daily face wash La Roche Posay Purifying Foam Cleanser $14.99 you could only get it from France but finally you buy in the US!

Toner: BeautyCounter Rosewater Toner spray: This is norishing, hydrating a reasonable $35

Serum: SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic Acid: This is my preventive, I am die hard loyal CE Ferulic Acid fan. It is $165 but it lasts 6months and I only use 2 drops every morning all over my face. I always think about trying something else but I honestly adore this product that has given me youthful skin it is currently on sale for $84.99 which never happens!

I recently added a correct serum SkinCeuticals Hyaluronic Acid Intensifier this is $98 and  I use 2 drop after the CE Ferulic Acid, this amplify skin’s hyaluronic acid levels  visible appearance of firmness, smoothness, and facial plumpness. 

Eye cream: I really research eye creams and love Chantecaille Stress Repair Concentrate it awakens my eye area deflates puffiness and smooths fine lines and wrinkles!

Moisturiser: I love Eve Lom Brightening Cream, I received a sample from Space NK and loved it!

 SPF: I never walk out of the door without SPF on my face, I apply after my moisturizer and I am currently using Bobbi Brown Protective SPF 50 Face Base

If I go to the gym in the morning I only cleanse and moisturizer after the gym I do my daily skincare routine.

I hope you found this useful.

Inner Light

My friend highly recommended Inner Light. I am big fan of trying and discovering things to improve my wellbeing. We speed through life and often forget to take time to ourselves. Moms might do a 50minute workout but then we are zooming around, I am still learning how to juggle Mom & Wife life as I am certainly not a natural!

Inner light has individual full-spectrum Infrared Saunas detoxify the body with light. Full Spectrum infrared therapy saunas detoxify your body, helps with anti-aging, it gets deep into your muscles and tissues and helps loosen muscles! The whole experience rejuvenates your body almost a reset that we all need.

I highly recommend Inner Light, the space is truly divine with a tranquil boutique selling beautiful natural, toxin-free products. I cannot wait to return.

Favorite workout sneakers (trainers)

'Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world' said Marilyn.  I agree with Maz, I LOVE shoes and fitness. This post is about the workout sneakers recommended by me and fellow fitness lovers! Through trial and error we all found our favorite sneakers! 

This post is inspired by Alison Dorfman co-owner of The Paper Alley 

Running: Barbara Lincoln makes running look effortless and has many marathons under her belt. As a runner she alternates between Saucony ISO triumph and Brooks Transcend 3. She wears the ones that have 300 plus mileage for cross training once I'm done running in them. 

Alison Dorfman is a recreational runner and adds interval boxing training to her workout, she loves her Hoka One One. Ali co-owns The Paper Alley offering wonderful personalized stationary.

Tennis: Jess Larit one of the most effortless, A-Team, collegiate tennis player recommends Nike Vapour 9.5 tour I recently bought the same but sadly does not improve my game!

Cross training: My Manhattan BFF loves her Asics gel kayano 20, she loves this sneaker for her workout variation of Barrys Bootcamp, Tracey Anderson & home gym. I love that she already knows her next workout sneaker is Asics gel kayano 24.

Marni Lane favorite cross trainer Nike Air Zoom Strong and for running she recommends Asics Kayano or Asics GT-2000 Marni is co-founder of PR firm Kriskey & Lane Communications.

Nadine Abramcyk co -founder of TenoverTen my favorite nail salon, loves The Class by Taryn Toomey.  Nadine really likes Nike Air Zoom Strong, because of the extra support across the top of her foot with the strap.

I love dance cardio, interval boxing training with weights.  My fav workout sneaker is the Nike Free RN Flyknit they are light and allow very natural movement. They were recommended to me by a young dancer working at Nike and I have not looked back, they come in great colors. 

Nike have a collection called Nike Chrome Blush Collection, they are feminine, sporty and stylish! Each sneaker is lightweight, breathable and great stability. Perfect workout sneaker.
