Recently, I tried a face oil, Marie Veronique Organics Anti-Aging Oil.
It came in my monthly Birchbox. When I first saw it, I thought it was ridiculous. Why would I put oil on my already greasy face? I have not hit the dry skin that comes with mature skin; does Birchbox think I'm old? I didn't try it right away. Eventually, I thought, "what they heck, might as well try all my samples, that's what I'm paying for," so I did. I wasn't sold completely. For one, I really don't like the smell. It's an organic natural product. I think it smells like weeds. However, after a few uses, I noticed my skin was velvety soft and glowed! Now, I normally use a moisturizer and beauty balm with SPF on a regular basis, plus foundation on bad skin days. I found myself just using the oil; it evens out my skin that much!
Now, it does have some draw backs. I already mentioned the smell, but once the oil is on my face I don't notice the odor. Plus, its a rather pricey product. I think a full size bottle is $80! So I doubt I'll be purchasing it. Nevertheless, I am intrigued. I am looking at less expensive face oils to try, perhaps a the perfect face product might be in my future!
Do you have a "go to" product or a secret skin care fix? Spill the details!
Birchbox and Marie Veronique Organics have no idea who I am and are not paying me to write this. I like to share when I discover something exciting and hope you might like it too!
