Many people wish they can turn back the hands of time. Go back to their youth. Go back to their youthful body, youthful thoughts and most importantly, youthful skin. But alas, sometimes time and the sun does take its toll on us. That’s why it’s important to use products that are healthy for our skin. This Lavere anti-aging SOLUTION facial toner mist is pretty awesome because it not only hydrates your skin but it also brings about an anti-aging effect. It’s like killing two birds with one stone?

This is definitely one solution you should add to your day and night skin ritual.

My mother would love this product. Lavere Natural Ant-Aging SOLUTION Facial Toner gently refreshes and cleanses the skin without stripping away natural oils. Ideal for those who have dry/mature skin. The formula has a soothing, anti-bacterial organic aloe vera and pore-cleaning clover flower that purifies the skin. It’s a mild toner designed for skin 45 and older.

If you want to show your mama some love, I think this will do the trick.

I find that there’s an inverse relationship between the temperature outside and how long it takes to get ready in the morning. The warmer the weather gets, the quicker I’m out the door in the morning. I let my hair’s natural wave come out, eschewing time-consuming blow outs. My outfits are much less complicated, with a bright print substituting for the layered intricacies of a cold weather look. And if ever there was a time to feel less self-conscious about freckles showing, now is it.

That’s when a tinted moisturizer is perfect. One easy step to even out skin tone and moisturize. Lavere Natural Anti-Aging Hydro Bronzer in cool beige is not a “bronzer” in the traditional sense. It’s more like a tinted primer, giving it the sheerest boost and a nice “blurring” of discoloration and unevenness. All the while, organic fruit acids eat away dulling dead skin cells, and hyaluronic acid, organic aloe vera and jojoba oil moisturize and work to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Skin is soft and plumped without being greasy.

This eye cream is great. Before I went to bed, I squeezed a small dollop of it onto my fingers and gently applied it to the area around my eyes. The cream was silky and light and didn’t feel as though it was weighing down my skin or clogging any pores. The scent, though subtle and hard to place, had a very calming effect. Nothing noxious, but noticeable.

Waking up the  next morning, I discovered that my skin was noticeably smoother and softer. My skin felt rejuvenated with moisture, and the area around my eyes was much  more relaxed.

Lavere’s Anti-Aging Intensive Eye Cream will put the glow back into your skin without weighing it down with an oily compound. Another cosmetic necessity to add to your makeup bag.

You will not believe the amount of stress I go through. Generally, I get about four to six hours of sleep every night, more if I’ve gotten an early head start to my day, less if I’ve decided to cause some late-night mischief or have a deadline to meet.

Yes. I am a self-proclaimed workaholic.

And I think I like it.

But being a workaholic takes a lot of work. Especially when taking care of your skin because that’s one of the first things to deteriorate when you lose sleep or aren’t getting enough nutrition. And I’m sure the stress doesn’t do anything to help with wrinkles and stress lines. I haven’t even had my midlife crisis yet, and I’m starting to see the beginnings of canyons form on my forehead.

Lavere Natural Anti-Aging Solution Face Mask is the ultimate treat for your tired skin. It comes in a 1-oz. bottle, easy for you to carry in your purse, and it leaves your skin hydrated, clear and absolutely glowing. The invigorating organic oils and plant extracts do wonders for your skin, leaving your skin looking visibly refreshed and younger.

That’s when a tinted moisturizer is perfect. One easy step to even out skin tone and moisturize. Lavere Natural Anti-Aging Hydro Bronzer has a nice yellow-based tint, and is not a “bronzer” in the traditional sense. I found the color to be light enough to blend with my pale skin, while giving it the sheerest boost and a nice “blurring” of discoloration and unevenness. All the while, organic fruit acids eat away dulling dead skin cells, and hyaluronic acid, organic aloe vera and jojoba oil moisturize and work to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Skin is soft and plumped without being greasy.

C’mon, admit it. When the thermostat outside turns up, calling for shorts and tanks, we all do the same thing – we dial down the makeup and even our skincare practices. We suddenly become too lazy to get to the third step in our three-step skincare regimen. I mean, it’s just so hot. Who wants to slather on cream after cream on top of sunscreen?

When the temperature rises, switch that cream-heavy anti-aging skincare regimen so perfect for cooler months with a lighter formula.

I’ll admit it. I’ve never taken very good care of my eyes. I’ve yanked, pulled and rubbed my eyes with abandon all throughout my 20s and well into my 30s. I’ve stayed up late (I’m a night owl) and never worried about the state of my eyes the next morning. My excuse? I’m Asian! I’ll never have saggy, wrinkly eyes. Sadly, the day I’ve been in denial about has finally arrived. The skin around my eyes is noticeably thinner. Where I once rubbed or pulled with confidence knowing my eyelids would snap right back into place, and never turned down another glass of wine even though the hour was well past midnight, I have to be a little more careful now.

I woke up one morning to find a strange vision — during the night, my left eyelid had formed a deep crease giving me that eyelid fold I had so coveted throughout my impressionable years. But now, well into my 30s and happy with my looks, nothing could have been more horrid. I felt disfigured and vowed to rid this “wrinkle” form my lid. I tried every anti-aging/anti-wrinkle cream I could get my hands on, but nothing seemed to work on this crevasse on my eyelid. So I walked around with a curl of hair masking the offending crease.

Enter hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is naturally occurring in the body and helps to plump up skin, temporarily smoothing wrinkles. It’s like adding a breath of air to a slightly deflated balloon. I slathered it on and woke up the next morning to find the fold neatly ironed out. Miracle upon miracles!

And so, when I learned that hyaluronic acid lay at the core of Laveré’s HYDRO Sensation Moisturizing Cream, I couldn’t wait to try. The certified all-natural, vegan moisturizer isn’t the thickest moisturizer, which makes it soak pretty quickly into skin. It just feels like its chock full of skin-tingling goodness. After just one application on a particularly dry area, my skin honestly felt totally hydrated, not to mention the little wrinkles that appeared smoother. In fact, the company says that 85 percent of 30 women in their 30s who tested the HYDRO line noticed a difference. Count me as one of them.
