Yesterday, while at an Algenist event I was able to test the Algenist  Triple-Action Micropolish & Peel.   I was amazed by the results.   I knew this was a product that I just had to share with you, especially since the weather is getting colder, which means we need something that is going to exfoliate our skin. 

“I don’t want skin that is smoother, more radiant and effortlessly luminous,” said no one, ever!  So, Algenist made it a little easier for anyone to achieve with their Triple-Action Micropolish & Peel. 

What does it do?

The Algenist Triple-Action Micropolish & Peel allows skin transformation that goes beyond exfoliation to immediately retexturize and brighten skin with a resurfacing formulation combined with a microdermabrasion and a chemical peel that is gentle enough to use up to two times a week.  Alguronic Acid and Glycolic Acid are paired for the first time, creating a solution that not only increases cell turnover to exfoliate the skin while reducing inflammation, but also works to lift dead skin cells and break the bonds that keep them attached to skin.  Within 10 days, the Triple-Action Micropolish & Peel is clinically proven to improve skin texture and tone, reduce visibility of lines and wrinkles and boost skin’s radiance.

My thoughts:

I only tested the product on my hand, which I will admit has been very dry lately due to this weather here in New York City.  It felt gentle going on, even with micropolishing crystals.  After rinsing, the lines and dryness on the backs of my hand were gone.  My skin in the area was remarkably smoother and more radiant than on the hand I did not use it.  Needless to say, I can’t wait to try it on my face!  I will be sure to get back to you with a full review.

The 2 fl oz Triple-Action Micropolish and Peel is available NOW on QVC.com for $68.16 +S&H (Orig. $75).  It sounds pricey, but with using this product twice per week, and only a pea-sized amount, you will get atleast 4 months usage from this product.

Previously on “Falling for You”… Amanda and Joe both struggle to come up with the perfect pitch for the Fall Fashion Extravaganza, but when the two brainstorm over dinner, the crème brulee isn’t the only thing heating up. 

Episode three brings us to the big day, when we find out who will win the competition before heading to New York City for the fall preview.  Amanda is officially falling for Joe, no matter how much she denies it – watch what happens next here and check back tomorrow for an exciting live-streamed finale of the big event!

Fall beauty for 2012 include bold, colorful eyes where eyeliner takes the spotlight.  Whether thick and smudged out or overdrawn and precise, eyeliner is the must-have product this fall beauty season.

What are Eye Rimz Pencils?

These are not your ordinary pencil.  Eye Rimz Pencils are waterproof, creamy, gel-based pencils created to deliver the same color intensity as their sister, the Eye Rimz Baked Wet/Dry Accents Collection. Eye Rimz Pencils soft, yet bold liners, glide on comfortably and impart a high-shine finish that stays put all day long. And, the pencils are retractable, featuring a hidden sharpener to shape the tip of the pencil for the creation of precise, detailed lines.

Two complementary colors are paired together to provide countless ways to define and accent eyes:

Bewitching Bronze & Hocus Pocus – deep, rich brown with bronze shimmer paired with an intense black with forest green shimmer

Goldspell and Potion – intense black with golden shimmer paired with a rich, royal purple with pearl.

Nothing goes better with a bold eye than a nude/neutral lip!
