Summer Skin Solutions..

With temperatures over 90 degrees this week , skincare is more important than ever. Here are my top 4 picks for the week.




4. Murad Clarifying Cleanser (Rickysnyc.com;$26.00). This mild cleanser, cleans skin while preventing future breakouts. Chamomile and Green Tea Extracts comfort irritated skin.
Calm skin, calm mind.
This Cleanser is great for either Day or Night, but with days filled with off the charts temperatures paired with high levels of humidity, its a great prep for the steamy day ahead of you.




3. Peter Thomas Roth Max Collection Correction Pads (Rickysnyc.com; $35.99).
Exclusively formulated to cleanse skin, clear up blackheads, refine pores, and
reduce the appearance of fine lines.
Peter Thomas Roth is one of my favorite skin care lines. They can easily be used to freshen up the face mid-day / prep for a post- work outing.




2. AHAVA Protective Moisturizing Fluid (Rickysnyc.com; $34.00). Alcohol free light cream-gel made with natural Dead Sea Minerals for all skin types. Calms and soothes skin while working to reduce future signs of aging and fine lines with SPF 15.
I love products infused with SPF! I also like the fact that this moisturizer is alcohol free ( which tends to dry out the skin) and lightweight is a bonus in the hot Summer months - where we don't need for our faces to feel "weighed down" with product.






1.Korres YOGHURT Cooling Gel (Sephora.com; $23.50) This ultra cooling and soothing cream-gel provides long-lasting, refreshing comfort for face and body. Yoghurt, a natural source of lactose, proteins, minerals and vitamins, increases the water content of the skin’s top layers, instantly relieving UV-induced redness and burning sensation. Epilobium angustifolium and Fennel extracts provide exceptional anti-inflammatory and anti-irritant benefits, helping sun-exposed skin recover.

My favorite on the list of products . I usually use Aloe Vera Gel, but this has now become my go-to post sun exposure product!!! It has worked wonders on my skin post-sun exposure. You literally feel the "cooling" sensation especially on areas where the sun may have possibly burned. I've noticed a difference once I started using this moisturizer , that I can't imagine not using it anymore. I highly recommend this moisturizer !
