The Simple Routine That Transformed My Skin in My 40s

Oct 2

Always a most requested post! What used to be dry, dull skin prone to breakouts is now clear, toned and glowing. I don’t get regular facials but I did do a round of Moxie / BBL this past Spring to address a growing dark spot on my cheek. But otherwise, it’s all been about a consistent, simple routine using products designed to work together.

So let’s get into it …

Facial Toning Device: The Ziip Halo

I aim to use it daily but end up about 5 times a week.…and I don’t leave home without it! Not only do I see immediate results but with the combination of Nanocurrent and Microcurrent the results keep getting better over time. The new v2 comes with 3 gel options so you can easily find your favorite, I use this one to target pigmentation. I do the standard treatment which I think is 4 minutes, while looking in the mirror and saying “I love you”. Is a beautiful, calm way to start my day.

A few tips to get started! Make sure to use enough gel (I use a generous 7-8 pumps) wash your face before and after the treatment, and download the app to follow along for your first few times as you get the hang of it.

The 3 Products That Work Together To Do It All

The elegantly simple Vintner’s Daughter Ultimate Set, now available in a discovery set either for travel or to give it a go without the full comittment.

No guessing. No extra under eye creams or patches, makeup removers, masks or even extra Vitamin C or Retinol. The Vintner’s Daughter ultimate set truly is a game changing system I can never see myself moving away from.

And if you have sticker shock at first like I did, know that the bottles last 10 weeks so when I broke it down the price was comparable to all the products I was previously using. They don’t offer codes and never go on sale but every 6th bottle is free with inclusion in their subscription program.

A few highlights & and check out this post on how best to apply them:

  • Step 1: Active Renewal Cleanser ~ now in an even more advanced formula. does double duty as a makeup remover and cleanser in one, I massage it in for a good minute I never knew a cleanser could be so good
  • Step 2: Active Treatment Essence ~ they call it an 8-in-1 facial in a bottle, I call it incredible
  • Step 3: Active Botanical Serum ~ one of the most awarded beauty products of all time. enough said

Body Lotion Backed In Science

One Skin Peptide Lotion, use code LATELY15 to save

More than a lotion but a daily treatment for dry, creepy skin. I started using it few years ago after hearing about it on a bioacking podcast and immediately started seeing results, especially on my upper arms, inner thighs, and stomach. It’s my secret weapon after 2 kids and weight loss.

An LED Multi- Light Mask That Actually Works

I used the The CurrentBody Series 2 red light mask (the one with an extra wavelength) all last year and was super happy with it. I recently upgraded to the new Multi-Light, mostly to add in green light for pigmentation support but with 5 targeted treatments there’s something for everyone.

It’s also helped me get into a beautiful nightly routine of laying down with it on for 10 minutes on my PEMF mat (code: LATELY15) to unwind from the day, take deep breaths and practice gratitude.

I Can’t Go To Bed Without It

One Skin OS-01 Lip Mask, code LATELY15 to save

Put it on at night and wake up to it still working! I used to be a slave to my chapstick during the day and now I don’t need it at all. AND I haven’t noticed any wrinkles developing around my lips so that’s also a plus. My son is a mouth breather so I started using it on him too and it’s made a huge difference. I have it on auto-ship.
