Natural Facial Moisturizer - Whoa, this is some great smelling stuff!

Natural Facial Moisturizer with Retinol Today I attended a wonderful event held by the Barony of Sacred Stone.   Luckily I wasn't in direct sunlight all day, so no sunburn, but that doesn't mean my skin doesn't feel like its been put through the ringer.  I always wear sun screen and do my best to shield my face from the sun with a hat.  Too bad sunglasses aren't medieval in the slightest.....

Today's face care routine was the following:

1. Wash with warm water
2. Apply Valentia Clear Lift Revitalizing Serum
3. Apply Natural Facial Moisturizer with Retinol
4. Apply makeup.
5. Lightly apply 100 SPF Aveeno sunscreen.

What? I said I was serious about keeping any additional wrinkles off my face.  I mean, at least it wasn't 100 degrees out side today.  I still came back with a little bit of red.  So after a quick settle in, I headed up stairs to wash my face and apply Valentia Clear Lift Revitalizing Serum once again.  This product really soothes my face and helps take the red out.  While I didn't have a burn, my skin was flustered today from water loss and the general temp.

My review of Valentia is below.  I am a firm believer in serums.  They are the most important in your skin care routine followed by your moisturizer.

As time ticks away, so does the elasticity of my skin and the firmness of it.  I am often on the lookout for a product that helps my skin hold on to its moisture as well as smoothing the wrinkles that seem to be growing around my face.  I will preface that I’ve only been using this product for 4 days now, so I cannot attest to its long term results but what I can say is this: The Valentia Clear Lift Serum comes in an easy to store glass bottle, with a pump that works quite efficiently.  Two pumps is more than enough for my entire face and neck.  The product goes on smooth, absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling tight, without feeling pulled.  I personally use this under my daily moisturizer during the day and then in the evening as my base before applying my Retinol cream and emu oil.   The product itself is not watery, but has just enough creamy texture to give it some body that sticks to my skin.  I really feel like I’m putting something on my face that is soothing it.  Which is one of the best qualities; It instantly takes the red out. 

I am not giving it 5 stars, merely because I’d like feel more moisturized after the product is on my face.  But short of that it is excellent.

A little added benefit, it smells heavenly and is cruelty free.
