Hair & Skincare · September 10, 2017

I changed these essential skincare steps and this is what my skin looked like after four weeks

I received products from Biopelle for this review. All opinions are 100% my own.

There’s no denying how amazing we look using those airbrush apps on our photos. But here I am, thirty-six years old and longing for the no makeup look with plump, glowing skin like I had in my early twenties.

I would totally pay for that kind of skin WITHOUT plastic surgery, and so I did. As soon as I turned thirty I had been on a quest to try all the latest and greatest – from drugstore to department store to dermatologist office brands, I’ve tried them all and they were all just “meh”. They either worked temporarily or were skincare products that were too strong for my skin and started to thin out my skin.

And then, there was Tensage® by Biopelle…

Skincare’s best kept secret, the holy grail of skincare, the miracle skincare product. As in — if my house were on fire and I could only run out with my family, my doggy and a handful of things – it would be my makeup, my Louis Vuitton handbags, and my Tensage® Biopelle skincare line. It’s THAT amazing. Oh, and here’s the kicker! The ingredient used in Tensage® is nothing I would have thought to put on my face…snail secretion. But not just any snail secretion —

Tensage® Growth Factor features SCA Biorepair Technology, a special secretion from the Cryptomphalus aspersa snail, which contains growth factors combined with glycoproteins and antioxidants.

Tensage® is clinically proven to help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, increase elasticity and enhance texture, tone and luminosity. Tensage® has a complete line of products to help rejuvenate skin and reverse the visible signs of photo-damage.

Their amazing before and after images were so shockingly jaw-dropping, that I had to gave it a try!

And this is what my results are after just four weeks – holy moly, people!!!

These photos are 100% unedited and unfiltered – these photos are the real deal. And my offline friends who see me on a daily basis know that these results are legit!

When I received my Biopelle products, there weren’t really any instructions on how to use them. That’s because they’re meant for use through licensed skincare professionals who teach and advise you on how to best use their products the right way. I was able to learn how to use it thanks to that one time I interviewed Austin Dermatologist, Dr. Ted Lain (ya’ll be sure to visit him if you’re in Austin!) and the lovely experts at Biopelle while at The Aesthetic Show.

And lucky you! I’m going to share all the essential steps to applying different types of skincare products on your skin in the morning and at night correctly.

Here’s how I use Biopelle Tensage®

I use them in this particular order so that you can reference for use with your own skincare*. Fortunately, Biopelle was kind enough to provide the same skincare line to our mom cast for Total Mom Makeover’s season two and typed it all together for them to easily follow a skincare regimen on how they can use their Tensage® products as well.

*As a side note – my results are not just from the steps I took to get there – that part is something we should all be following with our skincare routine. My results are 100% from only using Tensage® Biopelle products.

MORNING (AM):
STEP #1: Take a pearl sized amount of exfoliating cleanser to cleanse face, neck, and decolletage. *I use my Clarisonic brush for a deep clean
STEP #2: Immediately after cleansing skin, apply 1-2 pumps of the Biopelle Tensage® Daily Serum to face, neck, and décolle-tage (chest area).
STEP #3: Wait 2-3 minutes to allow the serum to absorb.
STEP #4: Apply a pearl-sized amount of Biopelle Tensage® Tinted Radiance Eye Cream (this is plenty enough for both eyes, a little goes a long way).
STEP #5: Wait 1-2 minutes to allow the eye cream to absorb
STEP #6: Apply a pearl sized amount of sunscreen to face and neck (and décolletage – the chest area, if it’s going to be ex-posed to the sun) BEFORE you apply makeup.

—————————–

EVENING (PM):
STEP #1: Take a pearl sized amount of exfoliating cleanser to cleanse face, neck, and décolletage (chest area). *I use my Clar-isonic brush for a deep clean.
STEP #2: Immediately after cleansing skin, apply 1-2 pumps of the Biopelle Tensage® Daily Serum to face, neck, and
Décolletage (chest area).
STEP #3: Wait 2-3 minutes to allow the serum to absorb.
STEP #4: Apply 1-2 pumps of Biopelle Tensage® Stem Cell Cream evenly onto face, neck, and décolletage (chest area).
STEP #5: Apply a pearl-sized amount of Biopelle Tensage® Stem Cell EYE Cream (this is plenty enough for both eyes, a little goes a long way).
STEP #6: Wait 1-2 minutes to allow the Stem Cell EYE Cream to absorb.

Tensage® is only available for purchase at your Dermatologist’s office (you can find locations here you on the Biopelle “Where To Buy” section on their website) or you can find them online at Dermstore.

Hopefully this paints a better picture of how my dreams are coming true, one-by-one! I’ve received many, many, MANY compliments here in Las Vegas about my amazing skin, and all I have to say is…keep ’em coming! Will blog for compliments. Haha! What’s next you ask? My hope is to one day be a Tensage® Biopelle spokesperson, visit their snail headquarters in Spain, and have lifetime access to Tensage® products! Hope you’re reading this, Biopelle, because I puffy heart you guys and gals SO much!

@georgeteh3 put his heart and soul into this proje @georgeteh3 put his heart and soul into this project piece for @arteh_creations ❤️ He’s learning new things throughout the furniture design and building process. And figuring it out along the way (all without formal training, education or experience in the trade - learned it from YouTube lol).

He created functional art from this very, very, very delicate 1950’s gossip chair 🪑 that we got for free through FBMP. It was in pretty bad shape, and I was unsure of how he would do it or what he planned to do. But I’ve always loved how creative his visions and ideas are with pieces he finds, and I knew he’d come up with something amazing!

I’m so proud of how far my husband has come in all facets of his life. And it’s great to see his eyes lighting up again when he talks about building and creating furniture and art!

Happy husband, happy home! 🏡 #vintagedecor #furnitureflipper #gossipchair #beforeandafter #furnituremakeover #antiquefurniture #modernrustic #artdecodesign
Hiiiiiii! I’ve been keeping a secret under embargo Hiiiiiii! I’ve been keeping a secret under embargo until the full announcement was released, and I’m thrilled to finally share! ✨

After much prayer, reflection, soul-searching, and a sprinkle of courage, I’ve taken a leap and joined the other side as a freelance Creative Consultant for The Allen Lewis Agency (@trytala)🚀

For over 12 years I’ve been captivated by the power of creativity, design, influence, and the art of storytelling. It’s been an incredible journey filled with learning, growth, and an unquenchable passion for all things content creation.💡And now I get to dive into a whole new world (to me, at least) of the agency side working behind the scenes in PR/Marketing/Communications and alongside my Influencer and Content Creator friends! 🌟

This new chapter represents not just a professional milestone, but a personal commitment to pursue what sets my heart on fire. I’m looking forward to working with incredible individuals like Jocelyn Coley and the roster of amazing, major brands. I’m excited to learn from each experience, but also grateful for some familiarity, as I’ve actually worked with a handful of the team throughout the years as an Influencer.

Thank you for being a part of this journey with me! Your support means the world to me, and I can’t wait to see where this new path leads. Also, to all my influencer frands — I hope you’re all excited and ready too, because I’ll be reaching out to you for future potential opportunities! Love you all! 🙏💫 #humblebeginnings #newbeginningsahead #newaddition #momswhohustle

Happy 1-Year Work Anniversary, @Collectors / @PSAc Happy 1-Year Work Anniversary, @Collectors / @PSAcard ! 🎉 Celebrated it on March 8th (but it was International Women’s Day). Also coming up on 10 years in Talent Acquisition/HR field.

Started in this space as a Contract Recruiting Coordinator (temp) scheduling interviews and setting up job fair booths (boy that was an adventure, let me tell ‘ya 🤣). And I very quickly worked my way up to becoming a Corporate Recruiter. I absolutely love what I do, and the impact we make to help better people’s lives through finding their dream careers. ❤️

Now I work for a company who helps people pursue their passions for collecting. My own family loves collecting high-value collectibles too.

I began collecting postage stamps at the age of 8. I remember getting grounded, because I racked up a $500 phone bill making calls to a New York stamp dealer talking all things stamps. And look at me now, Mom! 😂 I was an 80’s and 90’s kid…moved into @lisafrank stickers, @pokemon cards, Cabbage Patch Kids, video games and Beanie Babies. 😜 I’ve been asking my parents where those collectibles are, but they are still missing. 🙈

Now my children, husband and MIL have a wooden chest full of sports cards, Funko Pops, and memorabilia.

As you can see, finding an industry I love, doing the type of work that I do, is a dream and fulfills me. And the company perks are a huge plus. They’re an AMAZING company! 🙌

The collectible hoodie I’m wearing was custom designed by artist, Adam Lister, for Collectors employees! 😍 #findyourpurpose #findyourpath #findyourpassion #HR #recruiter  #recruiterlife #corporateidentity #corporatemom #dreamjob #humanresources #talentacquisition #psacard #collectors #dowhatyoulovetodo #workanniversary
Working from home does have it’s perks! Beautiful Working from home does have it’s perks! Beautiful views, peace and quiet, can work in my bathrobe (and take it off to reveal my work appropriate attire during Zoom meetings 🤣). I was super cold here, since Cali’s amazing yet bipolar weather allows for zero usage of heat and air conditioning, but still needing things handy for warmth.
