Beauty – Philosophy

Our beauty philosophy is tried, tested and recommended. That might sound cliché, but we believe in the products that we have tried and fallen in love with. Products that we won’t leave home without.

We love products that are reasonably priced, and that pack a punch. After reading the reviews, checking the ingredients, and reading about the company we then try the product. And if we love it, we become a fan. It is that simple. Now some products can be expensive so we also look for outlets that can save us a $ or two. For example, having skin issues (acne rosacea) I started with the Obagi Nu Derm line a few years ago and it changed my life. It is expensive, but because it is so worth it to me I looked for and found a website (apothecarie.com) that has great coupons and ships and arrives within days of ordering. And that is a company I can back.

We are by no means beauty junkies, but we do have our favorite brands and as we age we look for new products to replace or add to our beauty regime. We prefer a natural look, but even natural takes effort. We also believe in protecting our skin against the elements, so we are constantly making sure that what we use hasn’t become outdated.
