Courtney's Picks

FAVORITE CLEANSER: Osmosis Purify Enzyme Cleanser
The perfect everyday cleanser! This is my go-to everyday cleanser that is somewhat exfoliating but not overly drying. The ingredient list is amazing as well. You get a lot of bang for you buck with this cleanser! I also love that it comes in a smaller 1.7oz size and a larger 6.7oz size. So you can use the smaller size to try the product out or to travel with, or go for the large size!

MUST-HAVE VITAMIN C: Truth Treatments Transdermal C Serum
You will not find a Vitamin C Serum with more bang for your buck! With 80% Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, an expensive, fat soluble form of Vitamin C, it has the highest quality and quantity of Vitamin C that I've ever seen on the market (by A LOT). It only includes 4 other ingredients which are the "delivery matrix" for the Vitamin C. I love the simplicity of just putting what is needed in this concentrated balm. For perfect morning skin, use this balm at night before bed. 

RETINOID: Sente Skincare Intensive BioComplete Cream 
Watch out for this one! At a 5% level, this retinol is a a wolf in sheep's clothing. Designed to provide the same strength as a prescriptive retinoid, this retinol gel is the strongest I've ever tried. What I love is that it delivers premium lipophillic Vitamin C to the skin as it penetrates deep skin layers via the retinol. It's brilliant! You get two products at once!

SUNSCREEN: Revision Skincare Intellishade Matte SPF 45
I have been using Revision's Intellishade Matte for almost 10 years (no lie!). In my decade and counting of using this sunscreen, I've tried pretty much every other tinted sunscreen on the market. Nothing compares to this one. I love that it has so many anti-aging qualities, a universal tint, and it never leaves my skin feeling sticky or shiny! All Intellishades double as a moisturizer and sunscreen in one. Not only are they a perfect tinted sunscreen, but they are power packed with peptides and antioxidants to help overall skin health.
