Although it is technically still spring, the weather has been hot and moderately humid. This means I have switched to my summer skin care routine.

As a mid-life, GenX women, my skin has multiple issues. This includes fine lines, acne (yes-at my age! Ugh!), and in the summer- sun exposure. ReVive is a huge favorite of mine, and their daytime products have SPF built in. Love that! So, unless I go swimming and forget my sunscreen, I am fully protected through my skin care products.

I always wear body cream to help keep my arms and legs from wrinkling like a prune. When I wear body cream, I love a slight scent. Laura Mercier is one of my favorite body creams, which I started buying in the 1990s. This summer I am in an Almond Coconut mood. It is the perfect summer scent! Love!

My daughter is a huge beauty product fan, and she introduced me to this facial mist. It is so refreshing on warmer days and made for the face; this means no clogged pores or greasy residue. Love it!

That’s it! My skin care routine for summer 2024 is not too different from last season, or last year. I am loyal to products which work. If you are looking for summer skin care products, I hope you find these products as amazing as I do!

ReVive Sensitif Renewal Cream Daily Protection spf 30 review

I cannot believe, in the fourteen years I have had this blog, I have not reviewed this face cream yet! In addition to the night cream and dark spot corrector, this is my gentle, daytime face cream. It is the best one for adding moisture when my skin is dry; which happens for me at the end of winter and well into the spring season.

A good, moisturizing face cream is imperative; especially if it includes both UVA and UVB protection. Plus, spf 30 is good perk too! The sun does so much damage to our skin, especially as us GenX-ers age! We need to protect what we have left!

ReVive has been in my beauty routine for over two decades now. I absolutely love their products and the Sensitif Renewal Cream is no exception. The daily renewal cream is great for adding moisture while protecting from the sun. Love!

I use their day cream in late winter through spring and early summer. Then, I switch to the dark spot corrector for late summer and the fall season. Love them both!

Here are my favorite products from ReVive:

*Please note: The packaging has changed for this day cream. The jar you receive may be labelled differently than the one I photographed. It is the same cream inside. The new jar says “Daily Cellular Protection” instead of “Daily Protection” and the detailed spf protection has been streamlined.

Thanks for stopping by!

Fall skin care routine 2023

fall skin care routine 2023

Fall skin care routine from top left: eye cream / neck cream / day cream / hand cream / skin cleanser / body butter / night neck cream / night cream /

The nights are getting cooler and the days are getting slightly crisper! Hello almost fall! This means it is time to transition our skin care routine from summer sun, heat, and dry skin to fall moisture. Love this!

While my neck, day cream and eye cream remain the same all year long, I am moving back to Tahitian Monoi scented body butter for fall because it is a warmer floral scent than my summer vanilla and coconut products. I love this scent! I wish there was a perfume to go along with it!

In addition to switching things up, ReVive has a new neck cream for nighttime! Love! I have been using the regular neck cream since my late twenties, so I am thrilled to start using their new neck cream. This is a must have! Of course, the ReVive night cream I use adds moisture and repairs skin while I sleep, I really love their products.
