Saw my dermatologist recently (Melissa Boothe, PA - for those that live in Charlotte). Everyone on the mom's group on FB spoke so highly of her. I've seen her a couple of times and really like her. She complimented my skin this time and told me she could tell I had really taken care of it.
I must admit...it's hard for me being at the beach all summer but I have been very good about using face sunscreen every day. I also try not to part my hair when I'm in the sun. Yes, I'm bad about wearing a hat. As my kids have gotten older and one of them can do their own sunscreen, I've been wearing more sunscreen. I know that's ridiculous but it's true.
Anyway, back to this visit, she noticed my skin was dry and suggested this body wash. So far I really like it. It's kind of boring. I definitely prefer my Method body washes for smell but I also don't want dry skin! Maybe this for winter only?!
The face lotion that she suggested is pretty wonderful. They make a tinted version as well but I'm just sticking with this for now. I put it on every evening and let my face soak it in. My makeup has sunscreen in it which is what I put on every morning.
Yes I'm crazy about dermatologist visits. It took me awhile to find one that actually looked me up and down (my first gal that I loved retired). No shame in my game - check me everywhere. Too much family history not to! So, here's your reminder - go get your annual skin exam!
