Murad's Clarifying Wipes
By Laura Medina
You must be lucky enough if you're at New York Fashion then flying to London Fashion Week, onto Milan and finalizing it all up on Paris Fashion Week on September 25th until October 3rd.
This means your poor, stressed-out face is in the throes of stress pimples, "crinkles" (those lovely crow's feet at the outside corners of your eyes), splotchy sun spots, parched lips, and a pale complexion because all of the life from you, has been sucked running from FNOs to runway shows.
Multiple pollution and various "airs" indigenous to each city only makes your existing zits, zit pits, and spots only confuse your skin more.
Having to deal with straining backs from hauling press bags, equipment, and clothes then the humiliation of dealing with the Transportation Security Administration, this means you have to "Hobo" your hygiene and beauty.
Gosh! What a fashionista to do?!
Don't get your hair in a tizzy, this scribe has been there, done that, and undergoing it right now then spend the rest of the year, discovering, researching, and trying these multi-tasking blemish attackers, Swiss Army Knives of makeup and skincare, and mighty minis of hygiene.
Did the TSA confiscate your pumps, jars, and bottles of toners, scrubs,and cleansers for their own taking or you're too exhausted and lazy to clean your face or both?
No fear...Murad's efficient and effective Clarifying Wipes, tissues already soaked in witch hazel/ cucumber/lemon/calendula/ and grape seed, jump through that hurdle. Not considered liquid, you can toss this 18 count pack of Clarifying Wipes in your purse, zip through TSA line, then wipe that grim off your face in your hotel...then start fresh again.
Murad's Anti-Aging and Anti-Acne Pore & Line Minimizing Hydrator is a blessing-upfront, especially if you are an experienced woman of a certain age who earned her privileges to be in fashion week.
Leave the jars and pumps of heavy creams behind, save the severe tubes of acne cream to the teenies, Murad's Pore & Line Minimizing Hydrator tackles both crinkles, wrinkles, and pimples who get from frowning and squirting.
Like this scribe said, if you can't eat it or drink it, wear it-this Kombucha rich cream stimulates and builds collagen, smoothing out the crinkles, wrinkles, and the zit pits.
Lentil Seed Extract and Witch Hazel tighten pores and restrain excess oil. Cinnamon Extract restores the skin surface by calms down inflammation and optimizing the right amount of oil production.
Murad's Anti-Aging & Anti-Acne Line Minimizing Hydrator is a smart facial cream, smart enough to double as both a day and night cream, no more hauling separate lotions for day and night.
If your little pouch of a makup bag can't get any brighter, then Smashbox's Photo Finish More Than
Primer Dark Spot Correcting Lotion is a primer that can stand-in for your night-only retinol cream. One less product to weigh you down and one more extra space.
In fact, you can use both Murad's Pore & Line Minimizing Hydrator and Smashbox's Photo Finish More Than Primer Dark Spot Correcting Lotion as night creams and lotions since anything that erases lines and spots are more effective on clean skin, away from the sun's destructive UV rays.
Want a grown-up version of an acne cream sans the embarrassing crustiness? Yearn for a light-weight concealer without the texture of lard?
All you have to do is dab Murad's Skin Perfecting Primer Acne and Shine Control. Its Universal Shade adapts to most skin tones while it control acne breakouts, reduce oil and minimize appearance of pores.
Ok, you either prepped your skin the night before or you went ahead then slather on the Pore & Line Minimizing Hydrator for blemishes and the Photo Finish Dark Spot Corrector Primer to lighten spots, for a full arsenal with the Skin Perfecting Primer Acne and Shine Control to battles those zits, you need a full armor of Smashbox's Camera Ready BB Cream Broad Spectrum SPF 35.
This peptide-rich foundation with sunscreen and oil-control will gradually improve your skin, sans oil due to the peptides, in a month without worries, giving you enough time to finish the fashion week circuit.
Appearance-conscious gentlemen can do above all alone by themselves for a sexy, smooth complexion.
But for women, they need color that lasts or quick and nip on the go and in the pocket.
RevitaLash Raven 12 Hour Eyeliner is as tough as the women running the fashion marathon or any type of marathon. Whether you dot, line, or smudge it, this is most durable eyeliner on the market, no amount of rubbing or sweat can make this budge. This eyeliner will probably last longer than you do...no tattooing needed but use soap and water or cleanser, it will wash off.
With all the running, chasing, sweating, swearing, negotiating, kvetching, sipping, guzzling, nibbling, and gobbling we do, we need a quick slick of goof-proof color we can pocket in our jeans and purses or camera bag.
This scribe lives on Smashbox's Lip Tint and Color Balm, a Swiss Army Knife of cosmetics.
The lip tint end acts as both a bright but sheer cheek and lip tint. The color balm end adds extra oomph of color and a hint of moisture on the cheeks and lips or if you want to be all-natural subtle, just use the color balm end.
Now with perfect complexion and a bright and polished appearance, you can face those photographers and those pesky bloggers with impromptu iPhones.
Still need a proper wash and rinse routine, after being in the grimy urban jungle or your skin simply needs to breathe.
Malin + Goetz feels your pain, their thoughtful 1 Oz. Essential Kit have the basic: face cleanser, face moisturizer, body wash, body lotion, shampoo, and conditioner, all in nothing-weird, botanical and foodie ingredients.
Shoot, there is still enough space in their travel kit for a 0.35 oz clear lip balm and a 0.45 oz Rice Bran Eye Moisturizer. Great for guys!
For a mere $10, Burt's Bees put together your cleanser, foot cream, salve for anything, and a lip balm for the basic needs. You can buy Burt's Bees at most CVS and drugstores.
Now, you can look professionally polished as you gradually improve your complexion while hobo-ing it across the ocean and the continent, all in one pouch.
Less stress, less wrinkles, less zits, less blemishes, and less weight so you can gain more fun and more experience.
