Going green

I never really had many issues with my skin in school. I'd break out every once in a while, but it was never enough to be of real concern. Lately, though, I've noticed a lot more redness and break outs. I have no idea what's causing them, but I'm in the process right now of trying to find that perfect collection of products for my finicky face. I feel like I've already tried a million things and they either don't help or make it worse. I've been stumbling blind through all the popular names - Clean & Clear, Neutrogena, etc - with no real results. They all feel to harsh. I think there's just one direction I've yet to try.

I recently went in to Walgreens and, as I always do, I went down the skincare aisles on my way to what I was actually there for. Nothing caught my eye until I got to the very end and saw this...

...and I bought it without question. The word "soothing" caught my attention first, then I read more about the product and I got really into it. The minute I used it, I was in love. It was light and fresh and smelled like freshly cut cucumbers. So nice. I'd definitely suggest it for sensitive, dry skin.


In the next few weeks/months, I'm going to be looking more into these products. I'll let you guys know as I do!
