Dermalogica PowerBright TRX Creates Even Skin Tone In Three Easy Steps.

Like most people, it takes me a bit to adjust to the clock rolling back. I get all depressed and feel sluggish. I also see a change in my skin as it becomes dryer and seems very dull. This year instead of just dealing I decided to try out a skin care system from Dermalogica called PowerBright TRX. The PowerBright TRX line is made specifically for people who are looking to brighten their skin. Let me just clarify when I say brighten I do not by any means mean to lighten one skin.

Beauty Secrets Revealed with PONDS + Rockettes

This story is sponsored by Ponds but all opinions are my own. My skin care routine is no secret. I typically stick with products that are going to do two things. 1. Get my skin clean and 2.

Plus the sweat mixed with the makeup can clog your pores and cause horrible breakouts. Before I head to the gym, I reach for a product like PONDS Cold Cream Cleaners.…
