Benefit Hoola Matte Bronzer

Great for contouring!

Hoola is a great contouring product that comes with a small, thin brush that allows for drawing lines along the jaw line (camouflaging slightly droopy jowls) and along the nose to make it appear thinner. A little goes a long way and I expect to still have this box for about 6-8 months at the rate I am using it.

SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic with 15% L-Ascorbic Acid

Great antioxidant

This serum has brought back the glow to my skin. Use in am and make sure to use effective sunblock. Price is a little steep at $135, but can be used on alternate days (product is effective on skin for four days) but you won't want to once you get hooked on the glow. Also helps to heal sunburned skin. At the chemical level, ferrulic acid helps to stabilize the highly unstable L-ascorbic acid, I don't know of a more stable (aka effective) preparation on the market.
