I am not one who follows a ritual skin care regimen. There is so much skin care products out there, I always get overwhelmed just at the sight of the skin care aisle. I usually just buy drugstore brand moisturizer and face soap. Sometimes, if I feel like splurging, I'll go to Sephora and see what is affordable.
This weekend the family went on a little shopping spree at Ala Moana. I was in search of finding work shoes (penny loafers), no luck there, and work clothes. I took a break from shopping and stopped of at Blue Hawaii Cafe and sipped on their lava flow smoothie.......yuummmmmy!....Anyways, I noticed the store Origins was next door and decided to take a peek.
I've been in Origins before , maybe like 7-8 years ago. I have to say, I was really overwhelmed with all their products. I didn't even know where to start looking! Thank goodness a very helpful/knowledgeable sales associate asked if I needed help with anything...........I just said ' I need a moisturizer and face soap.......oh and I do not want a lot of products, i just want the basics.' She proceeded to ask me some questions about my skin and we went from there.
I actually ended up buying a couple products, one I am excited about using. It is called Modern Friction, a gentle dermabrasion cleanser. She demonstrated it on my hand and I was impressed. The sales associate only recommended using it 3 times a week, but she said if I stick with it, I should see results of smooth skin within a week or so.
I also ended up buying regular face soap, moisturizer and an eye de-puffer. As I mentioned in my earlier posts, I started working full time again and I wake up every morning with puffy eyes! So I am excited to try No Puffery eye serum tomorrow morning!
A really close friend of mine suggested I post a blog about my purchase from Origins (thanks Leina wink wink ;).....I will also post a blog of my reviews about these products in about 2 weeks or so?
Off to bed now, must prepare for a long long week and horrible traffic.......reminder, school starts tomorrow......school=really bad traffic :(
Have a wonderful week!
Peace,
Angie
