Freebie Friday!

Once again, the weather is freezing and snowy here in the city and I thought it'd be a great day for another Freebie Friday!

Recently, I was contacted by French skincare brand, Caudalie, to try some of their cult favorite beauty products.  I have to admit, when it comes to skincare, my routine is pretty non-existent.  I've always found the myriad of products and information out there overwhelming, which has resulted in a regiment consisting of pretty much just Cetaphil face wash and the occasional gradual self-tanner.  Although I've previously professed my love for glowing skin, I usually seek this effect from makeup, since the result is more immediate and I can instantly tell what works and what doesn't.

However, all this changed after trying the products from Caudalie!  My skin is more luminous than it's been in years and I'm now a complete skincare convert.  Their Beauty Elixer, in particular, has changed the finish on my skin dramatically!  What I love about this spray (besides the rather addictive smell) is that it can be used while your makeup is already on—to set it, shrink your pores and make you look instantly radiant—without messing anything up.  Sometimes my mineral foundation can look cakey after a few hours, but this quickly revives it and gives me a fresh, dewy glow.

Since most of us could use a skin pick-me-up this time of year, Caudalie has been gracious enough to give away not only the amazing Beauty Elixer, but also their super-moisturizing lip conditioner, to one lucky reader!
