I truly enjoy making resolutions! I love the sense of commitment and enthusiasm that they provide at the start of the new year. I’ll admit, I have been a bit ambitious in the past, vowing to complete A, B, C, D, E, F, G, etc. etc. but this year, I’ve decided to keep my resolutions – or goals, if you will – simple. It’s all about taking on one small change at a time, no?
This year I’ve decided to take one thing head on – skincare.
I think it’s time to start addressing this “getting old” thing. While technically, I am a bit late in the anti-aging game, I’m considering myself early. This year is all about good products, facials, and avoiding the sun!
I do take good care of my skin, but I’m ready to take it to the next level. Someone recently recommended that I try No. 7 skincare products. After their rave review, I did my own Google search & was quickly sold. I picked up the Protect & Perfect Intense Skincare System at Target for $50.


I also (per recommendation), placed an order for Country Life Maxi Hair Time Release (hair, skin and nail) vitamins.
I tried Sephora’s Phytophanère hair, skin and nail vitamins, but wasn’t thoroughly impressed. I went through a full bottle – a 3 month treatment – before deciding not to continue. The Country Life tablets have wonderful reviews, so I’m excited to try them!
In addition to my two new products, an increased intake of water, fruits & veggies is obviously going to be a must.
I’ll post my thoughts on the No. 7 skin treatment and the Country Life vitamins once I get a good feel for them.
I hope everyone has made a resolution or two for the New Year!
There’s no time like the present 🙂
I feel like “skincare” can be such an overwhelming topic sometimes! I’ve always used sunscreen, etc. , but just took on eye cream a few months ago. I’m not sure I see results yet… 🙂
Haha! There are so many products, it can be overwhelming. I’m curious to see if I notice a difference in a couple of months.
I’ve started taking biotin this winter, and so far my nails are definitely stronger, and hopefully my hair will get longer faster. Haha.

Love that! Anything that helps nails grow stronger intrigues me. Which brand do you use? I’m still new to this Biotin/hair-skin-nail supplement world 🙂
