Though I originally thought I'd do this big giveaway around the holidays, I started to think about my own skincare routine in the month of December and realized that it's a terrible time to start something new. You're eating terribly, your routine is changed entirely, and you're likely traveling and experiencing the woes of change in climate, plane rides, and borrowed bath products. Not a great time to introduce something new into your life. But a great time to convince you that you definitely need to work on your beauty regimen.
I am having a personal awakening about my skincare routine as well - my complexion has been entirely awful from the date of the first holiday party of December through to today. Too much make-up, too much alcohol, too many sweets, too many rich meals, too much dry air, too many heaters, not enough water. I can go on and on, but I'm definitely feeling the effects. My hands look dry, my face broken out, my skin peel-y, my whole body revolting against that which is the transition from wet, rainy fall to harsh cold weather that destroys the skin.
I've talked a lot about Okamura Farmacopia on the blog and hosted a Christmas giveaway for some of their beard oils, but today I'm really thrilled to be offering some of their skincare line as well. Sherry Okamura Leonard at Okamura Farm makes some amazing products all cultivated for specific skin types (dry, oily, etc.). All of her products are paraben, sulfate and cruelty-free! I've been the willing recipient of her facial services in which she uses her products and can say that even on my ultra-sensitive skin her gentle cleansers (being given away below) worked wonders. I didn't have any redness or breakouts following using her products and that's saying something. Each of these packages below have about a $80+ retail value so you're in for a serious treat if you win!
Read on for more info about the products and a chance to enter to win!
Oily Skin - Balance Serum; Balance Cleanse; Vita Balm (over $100 value!)
Sensitive Skin - Moisture Mask; Fairy Godmother Spray; Gentle Cleanse ($80 value!)
This giveaway for three different lines of skincare products (with three winners!) from Okamura Farmacopia will run from 1/2 through 1/10. The winner will be randomly selected and emailed. Open to U.S. entrants!
