Dermalogica's Skin Smoothing Cream Limited Edition Holiday Pack

Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream Set $71.00 available from www.dermalogica.com.au and Dermalogica Counters.

Skin Smoothing Cream Set: Skin Smoothing Cream Moisturiser (full size), Pre Cleanse (sample) Special Cleansing Gel (Sample)

It's that time of the year when everything is slowing down and everyone is planning their summer getaways. Travelling with full sized skin care is crazy annoying, lugging around heavy bulky containers of half used moisturisers and cleansers which are take up valuable room in your suitcase which could be used for an extra pair of shoes! I usually take the opportunity to use up sample sized products which have been clogging up my draws all year being saved for a 'big trip'. But usually when I take samples away my skin freaks out and I have a massive break out due to using 5ml of different moisturisers each day.

This is why I have been loving Dermalogica's new limited edition holiday sets, which include one full size product and 2 generous trial sized samples. There are 3 sets to choose from which are all targeted to different skin types. Skin Smoothing Cream set for dry and dehydrated skin, Active Moist for over oily active skin and Super Rich Repair for age repair.

I have been trying out the Skin Smoothing Cream Set whilst on a quick 3 day trip this week, and it has been perfect to travel with. The Skin Smoothing Moisturiser is light and refreshing on my skin with lots of healing and soothing ingredients like aloe, grape seed extract and vitamins A,C and E. The sample sizes of the Pre Cleanse and Special Cleansing Gel are the perfect holiday cleansing routine which will remove even the most waterproof mascara.

If you are like me and are prone to over packing and lugging around unnecessary skin care then I highly recommend picking up one of the Dermalogica Holiday Sets, and considering a full size 100ml Skin Smoothing Moisturiser is $71.00 you are getting the trial size Pre Cleanse and Special Gel Cleanser for free!

MILKING IT! Milk Dry Touch SPF 30+ Sunscreen

Milk Dry Touch SPF 30+ Sunscreen available in 150ml $17.95 and  375ml $38.95

I am always on the look out for new and different sun protection products, living in Australia I wear a sun protectant year round either under my makeup in a moisturizer or a high foundation with a high SPF and on any exposed skin like arms, legs and especially hands. My Mum recently horrified me telling me her and her friends used to sun bake till they had blisters on their chests!

At 61 my Mum looks beautiful but does have signs of sun damage from her youth and her only beauty advice to me has been to protect my skin.

A couple of weeks ago when sitting at The Boat House - a sun drenched cafe in Palm Beach with my friends having brunch my dear friend Lucinda whipped out some Milk sunscreen for us all to use. I had never heard of the brand before, but after applying it to my arms I was quickly asking her all about it. Milk was created by Australian swimmer Michael Kilm, it I think is essentially is a mens skin care range from scoping out the website offering products ranging from moisturizer to protein bars. Anyway my friend Lucinda has amazing skin and claimed this to be her holy grail sunsreen, so I immediately bought 2 bottles of the Dry Touch SPF 30+ Sunscreen and have been using it everyday since. 

The best thing about the Milk sunscreen is it isn't greasy it applies almost in a gel consistancy and is so easy to rub into your skin, then when it dries it is completely matte and is not greasy or shiny leaving a white cast to your skin like most sunscreens do. It contains Vitamin E, Aloe Vera and Tea Tree, which are all great for your skin, I would avoid using it on top of any cuts or grazes because it does sting and if you cannot stand the smell of Tea Tree oil then you will not like this sunscreen at all. I cannot wait to be using this all summer long at the beach.

Please if you don't wear a sunscreen during the day on your exposed skin because you don't like the feel then shop around and find one you get on with, in the long run your skin will thank you!
