I’ve been very focused on using targeted treatment products on my skin this year and this serum has been one of my holy grail products to help target any sagging skin or crepey-texture. 

This is a youth elixir serum that gives serious results with skin tightening, toning & hydrating. It’s a potent gel-like formula that contains 12 trademarked & patented actives that help rehydrate the skin, combat fine lines and give your complexion a total radiant glow. I personally notice a huge difference in my skin when I am consistent with this serum, especially around the neck and jaw area. It’s a game changer if you want to tighten and tone that area, especially when used in tandem with the Theraface microcurrent. I give myself at-home facial treatments with these two products and have truly seen amazing results. Together, you’re going to rejuvenate the skin at a cellular level to contour the neck area & eradicate jowls with consistent use.

Holi (lift) has a very high percentage of lactic acid, which is a powerful yet gentle exfoliant & brightening agent that stimulates collagen production, while infusing the skin with moisture. One of the incredible ingredients is Leucojum aestivum, also known as the ‘Summer Snowflake Plant’ and this is the ingredient that actually inhibits muscle contraction in the face, reducing facial movement, giving botox-like results. 

This new blush from Kosas has taken the spot of my number one current favorite blush. If you know me, you know I am a ride or die with my blush and love a really gorgeous flush of color on the cheeks. I love this one because the pigment payoff is sooo good, giving you really nice color with very little product. Even though it’s a powder formula, it doesn’t go on cakey at all and melts right into the skin, super blendable and natural. It gives you the most beautiful flush of color! My top color picks are Butterflies and Swoon.

This is a brand new lymphatic drainage body oil from Ayuna focuses on releasing excess fluid in the body, stimulating your system’s ability to release stagnation and toxins in order to sculpt and tone your body from head-to-toe. It helps if you struggle with water retention so it’s a great tool to have on hand during that time of the month or when you’re feeling puffy. Since turning 40, I’ve noticed a huge surge of focus in this skin care category, between brands launching new body care products and people wanting to care for their skin from head-to-toe and I am all about it. I can absolutely see and feel such a difference in my body when I take the time to give it that little extra TLC with products like this. It feels like a luxurious little step to elevate how you feel in your body. 

The technology behind this product is a combination of the micellar oil and a mood-enhancing blend of bioactive aromatherapy essential oils all paired with indigenous Mediterranean oils. It’s so silky and feels so luxe on the skin, you can feel the gentle contouring effect as it helps flush out toxins while firming the skin. The scent helps give the experience a zen-like effect and it helps to really relieve fatigue, especially in tired legs as well as combat cellulite. If you’re in need of a new body care product, this is definitely my top pick right now! 

This is the ultimate feminine scent not only for the fall season but for anytime. It is a limited edition, so you’ll want to get your hands on a bottle as they have been flying off our shelves. I had to stock up because this has been my absolute obsession since Heretic re-launched it. With Damascena Rose as the star of the show, it gets paired with a decadent vanilla bean, a touch of pink pepper, nutmeg, patchouli, labdanum and black currant. It’s super romantic, flirty, sensual and grounding. The fragrance of roses is one of my all time favorite scents so this of course immediately captivated me. Roses have the highest frequency among all plants, vibrating at 320 hz and they really hold the energy of love, helping us to open our heart spaces and connect on a deeper level with ourselves and the world around us. We have a whole blog dedicated to the magical power of the rose here. I think this is a must have bottle for all of the rose lovers and makes a gorgeous, gorgeous gift!

If you know me, you know that I’m obsessed with all things body, especially balms, butters, serums and anything that seals in moisture from head to toe. Body care is huge for me especially because I have very dry skin. I love the concept of treating your entire body with just as much attention as we do the face! We have a great blog here on the art of body care and I really live by the practices there. This body (balm) is one of Agent’s favorites launches and I have to say that I am also obsessed. It’s a treatment product that’s formulated with trademarked, patented face-grade anti-aging active ingredients  IBR-TCLC®, PhytoSpherix™ and IBR-Chill™  that help to not only retain long-lasting moisture, but also firm & lift the skin. This feels super rich & nourishing and gives a really gorgeous, supple glow. It is essentially fragrance-free, so if you are sensitive to harsh scents in your products, this is for you. It’s very neutral and has just a subtle scent of the natural oils and ingredients with no additional fragrance.
