Cellulite Miracle Cream?!

Vichy, a very renowned French brand is bringing "CELLUDESTOCK" to the American market with the promise to "kick cellulite in the butt"!  It is an intensive treatment for the appearance of cellulite, with active ingredients: Lipocidine + 5% Pure Caffeine.  It claims that in 4 weeks ther was a 98% reduction in the appearance of cellulite and clinical results have been shown on the buttock area as well as hips and thighs.  This is a great product to try if you've tried the Nievea products that target cellulite and haven't gotten any results!  I got this sample size of the cream at the beauty counter in Walgreens pharmacy.  I look forward to applying it to the mild cellulite formations I have behind my thighs, and put this product to the test.  I will feature a future blog post with before and after pictures, so you can judge the results. 
You may also receive a $5.00 off coupon along with the sample to purchase in store. or you may enter the code: DESTOCK at checkout if you order through www.vichyusa.com.  The coupon is valid until 10/31/2013.  This product may also be purchased at: CVS Pharmacy, Duane Reade, & Ulta.

P.S.: This product is allergy tested, formulated for sensitive skins, and Paraben FREE!!!! Yay!!!

A Manifesto...

Hello world! Welcome to my blog.  The intention of this blog is to provide a guide to a more beautiful, healthier, and confident you! I don't believe there is a standard to beauty...I don't believe you have to be a certain size or dress in designer labels to look good, as long as you feel comfortable in your own skin, after all... that is what counts, right?
This blog will focus mainly on skincare and anti-aging more than make-up or fashion.  Here is my philosophy...When I was younger, I used to be obsessed with make-up...and don't get me wrong...I LOVE MAKE-UP!  Make-up does wonders for problematic skins like mine.  It covers acne, discoloration, wrinkles.  It can brighten a dull complexion, provide color, etc...The point is that at the end of the day, you are masking the problems instead of treating them.  So, I have come to the realization that it is better to  spend more money and time on skincare that targets my concerns, rather than prioritizing or splurging on make-up (except if a mak-up product has skincare benefits or dual action as well).   I have to thank the fabulous Miss Tammy, whose youtube name is uppiesbeads59 for giving such great advice and teaching me the importance of anti-aging...Please check out her channel...I will place the link down below.
I look forward to take you on this journey along with me.  I will try and experiment with different products for different problems, and give you my honest opinion! 

Love,

Abby
