Summer is here! Lots of outdoor time with family, which means lots of time in the sun. The sun can be very damaging to your skin, so you need to take certain measures to protect it.
Anne and I recently had the opportunity to tour Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery (PVPS), the very beautiful new Nocatee location here in Ponte Vedra. When I heard of PVPS I assumed they perform surgical procedures only. I was wrong! In addition to surgical procedures, they also perform skin treatments and skin procedures, and they also have a whole line of skin care products and makeup!
When I went to the Nocatee location, I met with the Aesthetician named Alison Kuzoian. She explained in detail about the numerous skin care products they carry and gave me a few samples to take home. I am not much of a makeup person, I usually throw on some foundation and mascara and that is it. Meeting with Alison was great and she really opened my eyes to how I should be taking care of my skin to protect it from damage, and what products would be the best for me. I only use an over the counter moisturizer at home, so finding about what I should be using to protect my skin, and have my skin look its best, has really been a learning experience for me! She provided me with some sample sized skin care products that would be great for my skin.
Here are the sample sized products I received:
Colorscience Loose Mineral Sunscreen
This broad spectrum sunscreen makes protecting your skin easy, 365 days a year. Perfectly portable and easy to reapply, it offers powerful SPF 50 UVA/UVB protection with sheer, natural-looking coverage. You can choose what shade matches with your skin and this is water resistant.

Oclipse Smart Tone SPF 50 Broad Spectrum Sunscreen

Ossential Daily Power Defense Anti Aging Formula

I have been using these products for about 5 days now and I can really tell a difference with my skin. My skin was always so dry and flaky. Now my skin really does stay soft and hydrated all day. I do love all of the products, however my favorite is the Smart Tone Sunscreen. I am at the pool every day with my kids and never wore sun screen on my face. Such a mistake, I know. The sunscreen keeps my face protected and also offers a slight tone of color (depending on how much you put on and rub in, your results may vary). It is super important to invest in skin care products, especially for your face. I am so glad I got to meet with Alison to learn all about these wonderful products. She is super sweet and really took time with me and answered all of my questions. I really love my new skin care regimen!
