Skin Care Spotlight - Vitamin C

Skincare isn’t an expense, it’s an investment and Vitamin C is an absolute must for me every single day! This past week I’ve faithfully used the Pore Perfecting Scrub from Olay and my skin is feeling and looking great!

Honestly, I could benefit from any of the Olay scrubs with the ever changing weather conditions of NYC. However, I chose Pore Perfecting because no matter what, my everyday concern is the size of the pores on my cheeks.

What I loved most about Olay’s pore perfecting scrub was that it wasn’t too harsh on my skin. I don’t use exfoliants everyday because honestly they’re too rough. I don’t feel like I have sensitive skin, but some products leave me feeling super red and irritated afterwards. Olay’s Pore Perfecting Scrub has micro-beads which felt gentle on my skin versus most other products.

How would you determine the best scrub for your skin? Well… honestly it doesn’t hurt to buy more than one, BUT… I’d say start with your biggest skin care concern first. If dryness is an issue, then I’d go with the hydrating scrub. If oily skin and clogged pores are your biggest concerns, I’d go with the detoxing scrub.

Head on over to Olay’s website to read more about their new product line. And if you’re not including Vitamin C in your current skincare routine here’s a few reasons why you should start.

Vitamin C has a ton of benefits and is safe for almost ALL skin types.

Vitamin C is safe to use in conjunction with with other skin care actives (like retinol, SPF, etc.)

Vitamin C is hydrating and brightening.

Vitamin C helps to fade hyperpigmentation.

Vitamin C boosts collagen production.

My skin care needs differ by the week. Sometimes I could use a good detox, other times I need some hydration and here and there I need a good pore cleaning.

I’m excited that I can inexpensively treat all three with this line of products.

Do you already use Vitamin C in your skincare regimen? If so, provide some benefits you’ve seen so far! If you’re not using Vitamin C - hurry up and get you some!
