Today is my wedding anniversary-- 8 magical years and a beautiful son later, we're still blissfully happy (okay so we fight like all couples do but it never lasts more than 5 minutes and I always win-- I think my hubby has finally figured out the key to happily ever after ;). We are going out to a romantic dinner tonight and I have my schedule carefully planned out-- have our 4 year old son fed and bathed before the baby sitter arrives plus be dressed and ready myself. I've developed a quick but efficient beauty routine with the aid of the amazing brightening system from Orlane called Absolute Radiance pack, it has everything I'll need to have my complexion glowing as brightly as the first day we met-- all in 7 minutes! It felt like a science project at first but once I got the hang of it, it's been really easy to give myself this mini facial while I dry my hair! Here are the 3 easy steps:
1. Apply eye gel under eyes, cover with eye patch
2. Mix powder into cream pack and let foam for 30 seconds, apply Glowing Skin Masque and let sit for 5 minutes (while eye patch is still on, you apply the mask around it).
3. Rinse and apply Evanescent Cream et voila, the skin of a 25 year old.
I swear it is pure perfection! Make up goes on smoother and your complexion will seriously glow! $200 at Neiman Marcus.
What about you, do you have any quick tips and tricks to perfect skin before date night?
Happy anniversary Tina! Your hubby sounds like a wise man =)
I would love to try this but have sensitive skin-- do you think it has any irritants? We do not have Neiman marcus in the city, do you know if Bergdorf goodman has this?

Happy anniversary Tina! What will you be wearing to celebrate tonight?
happy anniversary! Orlane is amazing, love the brand!
Happy Anniversary!
I would love to try that product, but its a little pricey for my skincare regiment. I use Burt's Bees (quite thrifty), it keeps my skin glowing. The even have a starter kit for kids! I found the kids kit at the link below:

Try it out!
I love Orlane! It is also available at some Bloomingdale's but perhaps visiting their website can give info on where they may also be available. I mainly use their Pure Youth Serum, and that is the best investment I have made for my skin, and I use it twice daily. It's hard finding too much information on Orlane, but I've done some research on the ingredients, and the moisturizer, toner and serum's ingredients don't seem to be too harmful. I mix and match the products of my facial routine, but the serum has stuck!
