Review: Get Fresh Mineral Body Scrub
They Say: Blended with Dead Sea salt and hydrating botanicals, Mineral Body Scrub polishes, smoothes and moisturizes dry skin.
We Say: The number secret to beautiful glowing skin: a great exfoliant. I, myself, am rather inclined to try unexplored brands, so I recently purchased this Get Fresh Mineral Body Scrub in Black Currant (though I really don't know what exactly that is). I'll admit that it didn't change my life, but it certainly got the job done, and no i don't know what the hell a "black currant" is but I do know that it smells delicious.

5 Easy and Inexpensive Anti-Aging Tips
1.Check your diet
I'm sure you've heard it before: good skin starts from the inside out. So infuse your diet with antioxidants which have been proven to aid your skin in keeping its youthful glow. try:
Beta-carotene (e.g. carrots) may neutralize free radicals which effect your skin on a cellular level. Anthocyanidins (e.g. berries) increase your cellular defense system. Flavanones (e.g. citrus) and flavonols (e.g. apples, onions) may increase cellular defense as well as neutralize free radicals. Sulforaphane (e.g. broccoli, cauliflower) may increase your cellular defense system.
Vitamin A (found in dairy, fish, and liver) and Vitamin C (e.g. citrus fruits) both help to protect cells from free radicals. Vitamin E (e.g. nuts, oils, seeds) can also protect cells from free radicals. Selenium (e.g. meats, tuna) may be preventive in damage to your cells from free radicals.
2. Remove all your makeup.
This one is helpful both for the acne-prone and the aging-conscious. Throughout the day your face gets dirty. Products you use clog your pores causing excessive oil buildup which will prevent skin cells from regenerating.
3. Drink water.
4. Wear sunscreen.
Its pretty self-explanatory. Sun is a well documented danger to skin both aesthetically and healthily.
5.Touch your face as little as possible.
When you’re washing your face, are you scrubbing vigorously? Harsh, hard, or vigorous movements and touches can stretch and pull at the skin in an adverse way. For instance, you should pat your face dry, rather than rubbing a cloth up and down. This includes applying your makeup with brushes instead of your fingers. When applying makeup we often don't realize our own strength and apply too much pressure with our hands. Brushes allow for a smooth, even finish delivered with a light touch.

Review: Jane Iredale Absence Oil Free Primer
Us oily-skin gals just can't get a break when it comes to foundation. Liquids and creams tend to rub off by the end of the day, and powders tend to make our already enlarged pores look even larger.
Jane Iredale's Absence Primer is terrific for managing shiny t-zones. Silica, green tea, pomegranate, and seaweed are activated by body heat to control sebaceous glands; skin stays matte and make-up stays on all day . The product also fills in fine lines, and has SPF 15. It's available in Clear and #2 for deeper complexions.
