Beauty update: Germaine de Capuccini

Germaine de Capuccini is a European brand that is difficult to find in the USA and just happens to make my favorite face cream.  With the cold weather coming, it´s important that we hydrate our skin to keep it smooth, soft, and fresh looking.  You should do this with a day cream and a night cream.

Now, I have tried many a brand in my lifetime and this oxygen release daytime face cream is the best I have ever used. I am completely addicted.  They have a line of products called Excel Therapy 02 and I highly recommened this cream to use daily in the morning after cleansing.  The cream actually oxigenates your face and renews and repairs the cells in your skin, thus making your skin look fresher and younger. Not to mention the smell is wonderful.  Also, very importantly, this product does not make you break out.  I have mixed skin, sometimes dry and sometimes oily, so its different to find something that works for me, and this does.  You can purchase at Luven Spa, Calle Don Ramon de la Cruz 81 (cost is 40 euros here), or buy in many other retailers around Spain.

For nighttime use, I recommened the Time Expert Rides creme.  This actually works to fight wrinkles and more importantly, prevents free radicals, the cells that cause wrinkles.  And all while you are soundly asleep!  This cream is also available at Luven (a serum as well) for 55 euros.
