Spa (At Home) Sunday: Nuance By Salma Hayek Daily Resurfacing Pads
These pads are extra special – and here’s why: you’re advised to rinse your face 1-3 minutes after application. Similar products allow you to wipe & continue on with your skincare routine, but this particular formula needs you to stop the exfoliation process with water. If you’re a chemical exfoliation novice, that might make you wary, but if you pay attention to the way your skin is reacting it can lead to excellent results every time. Depending on how my skin is feeling, I might leave it on for two minutes, or sometimes I’ll leave it on for ten. One reviewer on MakeupAlley chooses not to rinse it off at all!
Even better than the customization aspect is that my skin looks nearly flawless after use. It leaves behind a beautiful glow, thanks to the AHA, lactic acid, and vitamins A & C. This combination helps to minimize any texture or pore issues, and smooths everything out for makeup. The best part? They’re only $20 (and if you’re lucky, on a special sale).
If you aren’t familiar with the Nuance brand, it was founded by Salma Hayek and inspired largely by her grandmother’s love for beauty. It’s exclusively available at CVS but sometimes tough to find depending on the location. I’ve been to no less than five locations over the past two weeks in search of these miraculous pads (yup, I said it) and I can’t find a store that has them in stock. Hopefully those of you outside the city can have better luck, but if not you can always pick them up from CVS.com. Don’t forget to scan that CVS card for coupons!
