I am obsessed with Vichy Aqualia Thermal Rehydrating Collection ~ #Review #Giveaway

There is something satisfying about still getting asked for ID.  I try my best to maintain my skin and keep it young and healthy. I'm not lucky enough to have normal skin. It feels like my face is on its own category when it changes throughout the day. I have about 20 tips I could think of for ways to keep your skin looking a decade younger - short of getting Botox.  One of them is to keep your skin hydrated.  Hydrated skin will help prevent fine lines and wrinkles from appearing. Lately my skin feels more dehydrated than usual.  I couldn't wait to try Vichy's new Aqualia Thermal Hydration Collection.

#VichyWorksForMe ~ #Review & #Giveaway

Back in March I was invited to attend the #VichyWorksForMe Blogger event to promote their new products launching this year and to help get me started on a routine to achieve my ideal healthy skin. I hated putting my skin under the microscope but I had my skin analyzed. Basically I have the skin of a 20 year old with clogged pores as well as some different pigment skin tones because I am getting old. My skin is trapped in a time warp and it can’t make up its mind or just likes to complicate things because having normal skin does not exist in my world. Fortunately, I was not prescribed 20 different items that could help me with my skin or I would have wiped clean the shelves. He started me on a 3 step program - products from the Normaderm collection.
