Growing up, I was one of the lucky ones.  I did not have insecurities about my skin. I had plenty of other insecurities of course (Thanks Great-Grandmother Edna for my lovely Spider Veins that I specifically remember having as early as 6th grade)!!  But thankfully, for the most part, my skin was kind to me!! So much so that I really didn’t even take care of it.  Washing my face usually consisted of using body soap in the shower each morning!

Fast forward to 2005. My sister-in-law was an Aesthetician at a local spa and CosMedix was one of the lines that they carried.  She raved about it!  Fortunately by this time I was at least washing my make-up off each night but that was with whatever I felt like buying at the drug store.  And to be completely honest, I thought she was a little hyped up about something that didn’t really matter that much.  Do I have to use good ingredients for my skin??  Can’t I just buy the cheapest thing I can find?  It’s all the same, right?

Well I’m now a believer. It’s not all the same.  And it is important!  The term “face-lift” literally freaks me out.  Doesn’t it just sound gross??  So I’m not getting one of those – ever!  Therefore this is the only skin I’ll have.  I need to take care of it.  I have to take care of it!

I’ve been using the CosMedix line ever since and I couldn’t be happier.  CosMedix is based on something called “Chirality“. And honestly I can’t intelligently describe what that means, but if I were talking to my friends (which I consider you!!) then I would say “Everything is of course preservative free, it doesn’t have artificial colors, parabens or yucky stuff in it.  But it’s more than that!  It’s about using every ingredient to its fullest & best potential. So that it doesn’t irritate your skin but instead it works quickly to treat your skin.  To heal your skin.  And to protect your skin.”

There are a TON of products to chose from – cleansers, products to correct & repair specific issues, moisturizers to protect you for the sun & to keep you hydrated.  They even have products for the Body & Supplements too!

I’m really excited to be able to host a giveaway because that means one of you will get to try one of my favorite products – their cleansers!!  They have two cleansers.  One is called Benefit Clean.  I use this one on a daily basis.  It’s a gentle cleanser that removes my make-up and also removes just everyday pollution that I walk around in!!  It’s good for almost all skin types because it’s so gentle.  The other is called Purity Clean. It’s an exfoliating cleanser and is great for oily skin.  My husband uses this one & I’ll use it every couple of days just because it smells so delicious!!  It has Peppermint essential oils to cool the skin … and it smells heavenly!

So the winner of this giveaway will get to choose the Cleanser that will be best for them!

And if you don’t win, you still might want to see if they carry something that’s right for you!  I use several different things but my favorite “everyday” products are:

1.  The Cleansers – for reasons above.
2.  Pure Enzymes – it’s basically designed to eat away at dead skin & purge congestion … plus it’s made with cranberries & it just smells so yummy!
3.  Define – It’s designed to stimulate collagen & elastin … aka, it’s helping me stay young looking!!
4.  Hydrate + – This is an awesome everyday moisturizer, plus it’s made with natural sun protection!
