Skincare Loves

Skincare is perhaps one of the trickiest categories to gift. Complexions can be fickle things. As a reviewer, I prefer gentler formulations than not. Also, my main barometer is if you can see a difference after you use the product. Here are a few that make the cut:

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask: I've tried many a sleeping mask that is basically an over-glorified night cream. This one actually seems to serve a wonderful purpose: a brightened, clearer complexion the next day. 

Skinceuticals Phloretin CF: If you're a fan of vitamin C, you'll be over the moon for this brightening serum. I usually use at the start of each season to give my skin the boost it needs to transition nicely.

Nurse Jamie Uplift Massaging Beauty Roller: Jade rollers are great but I think this bad boy takes it to the next level. I discovered lately that I clench my jaw from stress and the domed end on the wand is great for getting into your jaw muscles.
