DefenAge Skin Care 2 minute Reveal Brightening Mask.  See amazing skin-brightening in minutes with this Triple Enzyme resurfacing masque. A blend of ultrafine Sugar Crystals suspended in a gently warming creamy masque, it quickly uncovers the healthy skin beneath surface debris. When used once or twice a week, it helps the products that follow work on the upper skin layers more effectively. Adding water melts the Crystals as you reveal new skin, and an instantly refreshed, younger-looking complexion. Using this mask in the shower will take your results to the next level. The heat from the shower warms up the mask to get you the "pampered spa" treatment we can't get due to quarteine. This is a thin mask that produces amazing results.  Tip for use: Wet face and then apply the mask. The mask only need to be on your skin for 2 minutes. Gently massage mask into your skin. Let it soak in and relax.

One of my favorite products to use in between spa treatments is Estee Lauders Perfectionist Pro Instant Resurfacing Peel.    Every time I use this product, I get compliments on how great my skin looks. This “micro peel” gives me soft and radiant skin. I have sensitive skin and it is safe for me to use at home. It truly does give a “peel” effect with the irritation or downtime from a traditional chemical peel. This product has  Alpha and Beta Hydroxy Acids which are chemical exfoliators that help accelerate cell turnover. These naturally occurring acids help resurface skin to improve its texture and radiance. It also has Hyluraonic Acid which hydrates, plumps, and protects the skin. Not only do I have glowing skin, but my pores are
