THE KEY TO KEEPING MY SKIN LOOKING GREAT AFTER 25 YEARS OF MARRIAGE

May 15, 2018

THE KEY TO KEEPING MY SKIN LOOKING GREAT AFTER 25 YEARS OF MARRIAGE

Good morning friends and family! Today is my 25th Wedding Anniversary to the love of my life! Yay! I don’t even feel old enough to be married for so long. Ha ha! It seems like yesterday we were honeymooning in Cancun at 22 and 23 years old. Feeling like kids and looking like it for sure. We have fun plans to celebrate our anniversary this summer, so I’ll do a special post on our adventures later on. However, I wanted to talk about one thing I’ve struggled with throughout my marriage that my husband always tried to help me out in and that’s my skin. So, what’s the key to keeping my skin looking great after 25 years of marriage?

Here’s my story…  I used to pick my skin so much for no reason. Ugh. It looked horrible. And it wasn’t from breaking out. It was a bad habit caused by underlying stress/anxiety. I felt so uncomfortable without makeup and would try all these products to heal my skin, but they never worked. One day I looked in the mirror and I felt like I looked like a monster. That’s when I knew I had to stop picking my face and with the help of the Lord, I was able to stop. A few months later Colleen Rothschild sent me a full set of her beauty line and it took me a few months to try it out, because I would get terrible rashes on my face if a product didn’t agree with my skin.

One day I got enough courage to try out Colleen Rothschild beauty line starting with her Sheer Renewal Cream and it was amazing from the first application! I’ve been using her line ever since and have seen a drastic change in the way my skin looks and feels. I even feel comfortable without makeup first the first time in a long time.

Just this year, I finally feel like my skin looks great compared to how my skin looked a few years ago. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Right? I know my skin is not perfect, however I’m happy with the way it looks at 47 and realize how important it is to have a quality skin care routine that produces results.

This is why I wanted to share the key to keeping my skin looking great after 25 years of marriage, because I may have some readers who struggle with their skin as well. I want you to know that your skin can look better. My skin care routine is pretty simple. I use Colleen’s Radiant Cleansing Balm and Sheer Renewal Cream everyday; morning and night. I exfoliate once a week with her Dual Enzyme Polish and I use her Clarifying Detox Mask once a week. I also use her other best-selling products as well, however I admit I need to use them more often to see better results.

    Happy 25th Anniversary! You look so pretty in your pictures and your skin looks great as always! I have rosacea so I’m always looking for gentle products I can use. I’ve heard very good things about Colleen Rothschild and will have to try it.

      You’re so sweet Patricia! Thank you. Yes, I only use gentle products and Colleen’s line works so well with my skin. When I was having a ton of problems with my skin they thought I had rosacea too. But, I didn’t. It was just my reaction to certain products I was using back then. If you try it, please let me know what you think. XO
