La Mer Renewal Oil
During the winter months, it’s extremely important to keep skin properly hydrated. This is where La Mer Renewal face oil comes into play! It’s soft, ultra-smooth, smells amazing, and gives your skin a lit-from-within glow.
This dual-phase oil is ideal for all skin types as it improves the skin’s natural collagen and firmness while softening wrinkles and emerging lines. Massage three to five drops onto your face and neck (as well as any other dry areas on your body) twice a day for extremely hydrated skin and a radiant look.
PCA Skin SPF 45 Sunscreen
SPF is everything. And universally tinted sunscreen that is also water-resistant is the holy grail sunscreen!

It gives your skin an antioxidant boost and you can use it either alone or under makeup. It is made so it literally melts into your skin, giving you that wonderfully dewy finish of sun-kissed, glowy skin.
After your regular skin routine, smooth the sunscreen onto the skin and allow it to absorb for about 15 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply after two hours in the sun, and repeat throughout the day.
