Remember when I was complaining to you about my post baby lifeless complexion?  Well, I am thrilled to check back in with some good news… I just simply wasn’t using the right skin care products.  I was recently introduced to the Origins Plantscription line and I am now a full on junkie!   My favorite product is the new Plantscription anti-aging Power Serum.  I started using the line just before leaving for New York Fashion Week and despite the travel, stress and lack of sleep, my skin still felt refreshed.

When we arrived in NYC on Saturday, I literally just had a few minutes to drop off our luggage at the hotel, get Knox set up in the room and pass him over to his baby sitter.  Other than the quick change of clothes, this didn’t leave me with any time to freshen up.  I would have to settle for a cab makeover.  Normally after a flight, my skin is feeling pretty dehydrated and dull, but this time was different.  I had applied my new Origins Plantscription morning routine before heading to the airport and I am still amazed at how it kept my skin hydrated and fresh throughout the day.   After just two weeks of using the anti-aging Power Serum specifically, it has already visibly reduced the appearance of fine lines and has made my skin more firm and dense.

I had become pretty self-conscious on no make-up days so I honestly just stopped leaving the house with bare skin.  But with Knox getting sick our last two days in the city, he was too clingy to leave me with any other choice.  (And let’s be honest, that was the least of my worries.)  About half way through the day, I peeked at a mirror and was surprised to be okay with what I saw.  My skin looked more firm, the fine lines around my eye appeared less visible and over all there was just a more youthful appearance.
