These are things I use daily or weekly and can whole heartedly recommend. I am not an expert on skin care, nor do I pretend to be. I am just an actress that has been in front of the camera for many, many years and have tried many, many products. I have found a few that actually are working for my not” so young anymore” skin. It’s taken years to amass this arsenal in the fight against aging.
Please just remember…
Epionce Renewal Facial Lotion
This is a product that my world famous dermatologist, Dr. Mark Rubin highly recommended for my very sensitive skin. I have skin that does not react well to any active ingredients. My skin gets red, angry, peely and the worst of all crepey. Vitamin C, Retinol, Vitamin A, Retin A, Glycolic Acid, and any other amazing multi-tasker that boost skin’s cell function by continually sloughing off damaged skin, has never worked on my skin. In comes Epionce Renewal Facial Lotion which helps reduce the visible appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and other signs of skin aging. Expertly formulated to improve clarity and radiance for healthier-looking skin. Active complexes help reverse visible signs of aging, hydrating formula for visibly smoother, tighter skin and improves radiance for a healthy glow.
If you too suffer from incredibly sensitive skin that does not react well to any of the active ingredients in most anti-aging products… I highly recommend this light and active lotion.

Guerlain Super Aqua Body
Body Serum Optimal Hydration
As we age we produce less collagen and elastin… the fibers that help our skin look supple and smooth. We produce less oil which help create a barrier that helps protect our skin and seals in moisture. Sun, pollution, smoking hormonal changes, diet, exercise and lack of moisture can all contribute to crepey skin. Two years ago the dreaded crepe started hitting my legs and arms. The panic set in as I knew it was time for some serious research… and time to start testing every product on the market. I stared with the televised products… which are actually dreck (and if anyone has had a different experience please let us know). Then onto everything else I could get my hands on. After a serious year of trials, the one product that was hands above all others is The Gurlain Body Serum. I noticed with the first application my skin texture was filled with mixture and the crepey appearance gone. Now please remember with all products…. this is not a miracle… and they all take time… but I can honestly say… It’s almost a miracle. It’s not cheap… but you are worth every penny!
UPDATE: The new formula just launched and I must say it’s even better at fighting mature crepey skin!

Shiseido
Bio Performance
I bought this incredibly rich cream in a duty free shop somewhere in Europe… many years ago while traveling and it’s been part of my arsenal ever since. I pull this out when the Epionce is just not enough. Super Revitalizing Cream reveals beautifully resilient-looking smooth skin and creates the foundation for a more youthful look. Skin becomes visibly refined while the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles are diminished. Skin feels dewy, soft and fully moisturized. Great for all skin types…. especially when you need the big guns!!

California Charcoal
Peel-Off Mask
Breaking out is hard to do… at this age. But must say I have had my fair share of zits as of late. My chin has been an embarrassing mess and I knew I needed to pull out the big guns. So I went to Rite Aide (LoL) and grabbed a charcoal mask to see if it’s hype or real. I put on this gooey black mask and went about my business for 20 minutes while it dried. Upon pulling off this mask… I felt like I was pulling off my own skin. It was not an easy task, but must say the skin underneath was immaculately clear. I put on a little zit cream and Viola! The cleanest skin I have had since my last facial. The best part… it’s cheap! Feeling a little zitty? Hop on down to your local drugstore or get on Amazon an clear up your skin immediately!!

COOLA
Sunless Tan Anti-Aging Face Serum
My skin looks better with a tan… period. I have a pasty complexion and actually look younger and healthier with a tan. I gave up the sun over 4 years ago and actually wish I had done it sooner due to damage. But better late… than never. So faux it is. I have tried a lot of the facial tanners on the market… to find most cause a dryness factor that not only does not enhance my facial skin… but actually makes me look older and muddier. A friend recently complimented me on my glowing skin and asked how I can look tan without looking like a raisin. My answer? Coola, where I can now enjoy a natural looking glow all while actually helping my skin. This organic facial serum has a potent blend of plant stem cell cultures, Argan oil, Vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid that helps smooth and hydrate. Use alone or with moisturizer for a luminance face!

COCO SHEA
Coconut | 24 Hour Moisture Body Lotion
This could be the best smelling lotion to ever grace my nose… ever! Imagine a white sand beach with the clearest water you have ever seen and these are the thoughts that go through my mind ever time I put this body lotion on. This lotion smells so good, that I actually get stopped on the street many times daily. It’s a glorified suntan oil smell that’s heavy on the coconut oil and shea butter. This nutrient-rich moisture lotion has long lasting hydration and replenishes the skin for 24 hours. I layer this over the Guerlain…. so I have complete coverage and beautifully hydrated and conditioned skin that lasts all day into the night.
