Take Care of Your Face: Perricone MD Photo Plasma SPF30 Review

January 11, 2014 by Alyson Leave a Comment

by Alyson LaBarge

MomStart Contributor

Have you ever heard of Perricone MD?  I have at my Dermatologist’s office so I had always imagined that it was a high quality product.  Imagine how tickled I was when I was recently given the chance to try some of the Photo Plasma with SPF30 and report back on it.

Photo Plasma is super lightweight, oil-free, and an anti-aging moisturizer with a mineral-based, broad-spectrum SPF 30.

It’s really not heavy, greasy or sticky which are the things I so often object to with face creams.  Its lightness is partly because Photo Plasma is an oil-free cream, designed to glide onto skin smoothly.

The shell pink cream helps to create an invisible shield against environmental contaminants.  With its mineral-based broad spectrum SPF 30, it guards against both UVA and UVB damage.

 

It also contains Vitamin C Ester and Alpha Lipoic Acid which helps to brighten skin and smooth out any surface imperfections.  It worked wonderfully on my windburned cheeks after spending the day in the sun and the surf while on vacation.

The Perricone Photo Plasma promises that it will leave you skin soft, hydrated and radiant and is designed for anyone seeking protection against the most common skin aging factors.
Dr. Perricone recommends applying in the daytime as a final and finishing step to any skin care regimen.

Each 2 ounce jar contains Photo Plasma Broad Spectrum SPF 30 and is made in the USA.  You can buy it online at Perricone MD for $69.00 as well as high end cosmetic and skin care retailers.

Perricone MD carries a wide variety of skin care and anti-aging products including Vitamin C Ester Serum, DMAE creams, Intensive Pore Minimizer and more.

Follow PerriconeMD online at the Perricone Blog, Facebook and Twitter.

ASAP Daily Exfoliating Facial Scrub: End-of-Summer Skin Care

September 8, 2013 by Beeb 7 Comments


Complimentary sample received for testing purposes.

Most people start thinking about exfoliation when the weather warms up and they prepare to wear swimsuits and summer dresses. But I’m a bit of an exfoliating nut – as my friends will tell you! – so it’s important to me that it’s a part of my routine year-round. Summer might be coming to an end this month, but my quest to keep my skin smooth and pampered will continue into winter!

I recently had a chance to try out a new facial exfoliant from a line called ASAP. This Australian company recently broke the US market, and carry a variety of luxury skin care items like scrubs, moisturizers and cleansers. I was sent a bottle of their Daily Exfoliating Facial Scrub, and I was excited to give it a go!

This exfoliant has a very fine grain, and it does nice job – it feels quite thorough. I love that it’s been formulated for daily use; I have very sensitive skin, but this seems to be just fine for me to use on a regular basis, as I haven’t experienced any irritation from it. This is a really fabulous product! The only downside for me is that, because it’s “Pro” product that was previously only sold to skin care professionals, it has the same kind of price tag you’d see on salon hair products. This bottle of Daily Exfoliating Facial Scrub retails for $49, which would be outside of my normal budget for skin care.

Learn more about ASAP skin care by visiting their online store at SkinStore.com!

Skin MD – winners and A New Giveaway

December 29, 2008 by Momstart 54 Comments

For my last review I gave away three samples Number 1, 7, and 8. If you won I sent you an e-mail or left a comment on your blog. I’ll give you a while to get back to me because it is the holidays. I was contacted by Family Review Network right after I posted and they are offering one to giveaway in conjunction with Skin MD. A Whole bottle of a wonderful skin care product, one bottle is worth 25.00!

All I have to do for my readers is to post my review again with a few additions. Well, you guys are worth that. 🙂

I love testing new products. I have received a new lotion to try from Skin MD. They have recently come out with a shielding lotion that has SPF 15. I’m so excited by this. Not only is it a lotion that I can use on my sensitive skin but it has SPF. You should never go outdoors with out sunblock on. Especially if you have fair skin like me. Update, it’s still keeping my hands from getting dry.

I have very sensitive skin and it is dry during the winter time. I also have some weird unexplained allergy to some chemical. I haven’t been tested so I have no idea what it is. I thought it was dust because every time I clean I get this itchy red skin. But it doesn’t happen if I just run my hand through a dusty shelf.

Well, after reading about chemicals in products and how they affect people I began to realize it could be the chemicals. I recently tried Vaseline’s New lotion line and it made my skin incredibly itchy. I had to run my hands under cold water for ten minutes before they stopped itching.

Well, Skin MD does not make me itch and I like the smell of it. My daughter who is 23 months old likes the smell of it as well. She does what every she can to try and get to the bottle. She loves to put on lotion, but she wants to lick it off too.

I also recently tested some lotion from Bath and Body works, MySurvey, can’t share the details, but the smell was so strong it made me sick. My husband also complained about the smell. With Skin MD he didn’t even realize I was testing a new lotion type.

My daughter has Eczema sometimes and recently has broken out with a rash under her neck. I put some of this lotion on her and her neck stopped bothering her. I’m not claiming it as a miracle cure for Eczema. My daughter has very mild Eczema and only occasionally.

What Is A Shielding Lotion? You can click on the link for their definition, but this is my take on it. Shielding lotion is a lotion that will keep in good oils and natural things that your body makes and keeps irritants and chemicals out. This is good for people like me with an allergy.

Do you want to try it?

To enter: Visit Skin MD, come back and leave me a comment telling me something else about the product.
