Yumberry takes a stand!

Introducing a new branch of skincare from Murad! The new products use an exotic Chinese wonder called Yumberry. Yumberry is a powerful antioxidant that helps neutralize free radicals (skin damaging enemies) and encourage clean, balanced and smooth skin.



The packaging is what caught my eye. I love the bright colors and clean lines. The names are cute and catchy (Down for Defense & Craving for Clean) and the ingredients are new and innovating.
There are five products: a cleanser, scrub, spot treatment, moisturizer and protective moisturizer.



Available exclusively at Sephora & mycleanscene.com.

Choosing Cleasers

Finding a great cleanser is like finding a great friend. You may have to go through several until you find something you love.

Cleansing your skin is the most important step in a good skin-care routine, next to moisturizing. You have to find a product you enjoying using; otherwise, you won’t use it twice a day like you need to.

The best cleansers are gentle and remove all the dirt and debris from your skin completely without leaving a film behind. One of the best is Purity Made Simple by Philosophy. It removes not only dirt and foundation, but also eye make-up without irritating your eyes. You can find Philosophy products at stores like Sephora or at philosophy.com for around $20.

Another great cleanser is the Enzyme Cleansing Gel by Mario Badescu. This product is all natural and has a pleasant, fresh sent. It uses papaya and grapefruit extracts to breakdown debris in your skin. You can find this product at Ulta for around $15.

A third great choice is Origins Never a Dull Moment. This product promises to brighten your skin with fruit extracts. You can find this cleanser online or at department stores for around $20.

The most important thing to remember when choosing a cleanser is to choose one that you can’t live without.
