My New Obsession
So everyone who knows me, knows my obsession with skin care and facials. As a busy business owner and instructor I don't get the luxury of wearing make-up during work, so a fresh glowing face is really important to me. Luckily my beautiful mother passed down her good skin genes, but like most women there are times when even the best products can't help my blemishes and redness. Lately I have been noticing that my current products weren't cutting it anymore and I was thinking of trying something new....but that thought of walking into Sephora gives me nightmares.
Then I got an email from Elena Rubin, one of my long time clients, and she informed me that she was starting her own business to provide top of the line facials and a personalized skin care line. I was instantly intrigued by this Harvard educated MBA and was eager to give her products a try. But to be honest, I was nervous because what if I hated them?? What if they didn't work?? What if they made me breakout like a monster?? Then I thought of Elena at the skin care laboratory personally working with the lab technicians creating each product and realized if the products were up to her standards, than they would be good enough for me. That being said I tried 2 of her cleansers (one for the morning and one for the evening) as well as a primer/toner and I am so happy to report that Elena hit the ball out of the park. I was skeptical about the evening cleanser since it was a bar soap, but the packaging and sponge that was provided was so comfortable and easy. I must say after a week of usage that my skin looks amazing and I have already disposed my current cleansers to make room for Elena's amazing products. If you want some proof come visit me at my studio in Hoboken and you can see the flawless glow yourself!!
So you might ask, how are her facials?? As for Elena's facials, I haven't had the chance to get one yet, so I can't report back on that yet. However, I am scheduled for one on Sunday so stay tuned for the follow-up. Just be careful who you tell, because once those celebrities catch on it will be hard to get a appointment.
