Transitioning from summer to winter can be tough on your skin.  You may notice dryness, breakouts, some brown spots and even wrinkles.  You may be tempted to take drastic measures with aggressive and expensive procedures like microdermabrasion or photofacials.  Don’t.  I believe a gentle approach is safer and way more effective to relieve your skin woes.  As a model, I’ve been exposed to many different skincare products, all promising “perfect” skin.  Through trial and error, I have found that the following three products used in combination are the most effective for fixing sun damage, protecting and brightening your skin and keeping it moisturized to combat that cold winter air.  Of course, they are safe for all skin tones; after all, soft radiant skin should be within reach for everyone!

Products:

• C E Ferulic skinCeuticals – This is my all-time favorite product. It’s packed with antioxidants to boost collagen and protect against environmental aging.  The coolest part is that the serum stays active on your skin for 72 hours, regardless of ritual washing, make up application and removal.

• SkinCeuticals Physical Fusion UV Defense Sunscreen SPF 50 –This is the best sunscreen, which protects your skin from both UVA and UVB rays.  Even though it contains zinc, it doesn’t leave a white film on your face.  In fact, it has a sheer tint that adapts to all skin tones, giving you a healthy glow. Also, it’s non-comedogenic.

• Obagi am/pm Clear Fx skin brightening cream – This non-prescription cream with arbutin and antioxidants removes sunspots from your face, leaving a more even complexion.

That’s it! Oh yeah, also don’t forget to wash your face at night!
