“Good skin is always in”

Skin care is an important practice to begin as soon as possible. I am even teaching my daughter, at 9, the basics. I try to explain to her the importance of keeping your skin clean, being aware of what you’re putting on it, and SUNSCREEN! Living in south FLorida, this is especially important but, really, should be a staple in any skin care regimen. I am so sorry I spent my formative years laying in the sun and rotating like a rotisserie chicken.

The skin care regimen I have found works best for me is the Obagi procuct line. Both my mother and I have used them for years and are happy with the results. I have several friends that also enjoy their products. My routine is as follows:

I wash my face with their foaming gel face wash. It is a deep cleansing wash and it also helps to even out skin tone.

1. In the morning, I apply their product called exoderm. It is a moisturizer also designed to smooth out skin tone.
2. In the evening, I mix a small amount of Tretinoin cream with their Blender. In the palm of my hand, I use about a pea-sized amount of the Tretinoin cream with a slightly larger amount of the blender. I simply mix with my finger and apply.

Everyone has to find the routine that works for them, but my best advice is to invest in a good one and start early!
