Skincare update

Wow, what a riveting headline. But give me a break, it's almost 1 AM and I just got back from walking the dogs. Don't ask.

So, I think I may have solved my great skincare crisis. I've only been using it a few days, but Aveda's Calming Composition has definitely given me the baby butt-soft skin I wanted without irritating it in any way. I used to love Aveda skincare products but over the years I found they weren't doing it for me anymore. Their foundation and concealer don't make me break out, but they also don't cover as smoothly as I'd like. Still, they're what I was wearing until I fell in love with the Chanel foundation, which also doesn't make me break out -- it's just the Chanel skincare line that gives me perfect smooth skin for three days and THEN I break out.

Back in my Aveda days, this product was called "Calming Nutrients" and it was sold for use on face, body, and scalp. They seem to have de-emphasized the use on the face, for no reason I can determine. It's certainly making mine happy.

I'll keep my fingers crossed it keeps working. All I want is moisturized skin without my rosacea flaring up, is that really too much to ask?

Okay, that's not all I want. It's just all I want from a skincare line. The list of all I want is way too long for this post.

I'm eagerly waiting to hear the outcome. My sister has the same issues and would be eternally grateful to find something that helps her perpetual acne. Can't wait to tell her!
