Skincare Affair

Join us this week to talk sunscreen! Although this is just the surface when it comes to SPF we are excited to at least start the conversation! 

Recommendations:

Alba Botanica Sensitive Fragrance Free Mineral Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30, Aveeno Mineral Sensitive Skin Sunscreen SPF 50, Coppertone Sensitive Faces, Banana Boat Simply Protect Sport, Eucerin daily protection SPF 30, Cetaphil oil control SPF 30 (same as Differin), Neutrogena Pure & Free Liquid, Neutrogena Healthy Defense Sensitive, Olay Complete SPF 30 sensitive, COOLA face SPF 30 matte tinted moisturizer, Face Spf 30 Mineral Sunscreen Cucumber Matte Finish PCA Skin SPF 45 Tinted, Eminence Organics Red Current. 

Obviously there are thousands more we could mention but we felt this was a good start. 

Correction about COOLA products: If you have more sensitive skin, their citrus mimosa face SPF has a few essential oils in it which could cause some irritation. We will dive deep into essential oils in a future episode and still love COOLA products, just maybe not this one. Just wanted to update our recommendation.

This week Jenna and Sarah talk about ingredients in serums and which ones are better suited for different skin types. We both think this is the best episode yet because we argue a little. check it out. 

In this episode Sarah leads as we discuss how the weather effects our skin, how to combat weather related issues and what specific products help in each season! 

In this episode Jenna sits down solo to talk about the different types of cleansers and what skin types will benefit from each one. She also touches on toners and their benefits!

In this mini bonus episode Jenna walks you through a morning and night skincare routine step by step. Stay tuned to dive deep into each aspect in following episodes. 

In this premiere episode we introduce ourselves while taking the edge off with some red wine. (YAY antioxidants!) We discuss skin types and give sneak peaks into what we will be discussing in later episodes. Tune in to get a comprehensive understanding of the different skin types and get to know your skin a little bit better. Editing done by Jenna who is not a professional, so don't come after me.
