Can you believe Christmas is this week?
It amazes me how quickly December has gone by. Since I’ve finally finished all my shopping, I am turning my thoughts to the New Year and what I want to accomplish, commit to, and be better about in my own life.
A few things come to mind: learn to do more with less, be a better real life friend than social media friend, take better care of my skin, and be more active. Taking better care of my skin has been on my list for the past few years, but I’ve recently gotten more serious about it. When I was given the opportunity to try Vain Pursuits, I was pretty excited. As I talked about in this post, you can test drive the products before deciding which you want in a full-size.
As part of the service, customers get to name their full size products and choose a label color. (I’m naming mine Fountain of Youth.) The creator of Vain Pursuits used to try products that didn’t always turn out to be right for her skin, which led to breakouts. So, she created a skincare experience that teaches you about ingredients, how to test them, and how to use them well. I loved my experience trying out the different formulas and scents. After buying four different kinds this year that didn’t work well for my skin, I now discovered the nightcream my face really needs!
If you want to kickstart your routine, you can win skincare for a year from Vain Pursuits by enterting the #LetsBeVain photo contest. Snap a picture with your skincare and post to Instagram with the #LetsBeVain hashtag to be automatically entered to win. Full rules at vainpursuits.com/blog. Five will win, and the contest runs until Dec. 26.
(Also-Christmas came a little early on my wrist…I’ve been eying this gorgeous bracelet from Accessory Concierge, and I can’t quit wearing it with everything! You can get one here while still in stock!)
