Stripes, Loafers and a Lindi Skin Review

Although it snowed yesterday, the weather is much, much better today. While it's still not exactly warm, it is warm enough to venture out with bare ankles:

Shirt: Gap (similar) Sweater: Gap
Jeans: Old Navy Loafers: Gap
I figured stripes and loafers were the way to go for a casual Saturday. It feels especially appropriate now that winter is over. Probably.


Even if winter hangs on a little longer, the weather really has gotten better. And all of me is relieved by that fact, but my face is probably most relieved. Because this face?

That face right there has been pissed ever since we moved to Pennsylvania. I have somewhat sensitive skin anyway, but the combination of sub-zero temperatures and high-winds dried my skin out something horrible. And made my poor eyes water almost constantly. So, when I was offered Lindi Skin products to try, I was thrilled.

Lindi Skin products were designed originally for people undergoing cancer treatment, which means they were designed to be extremely gentle and extremely effective. Lindi Skin understands that anything applied to the skin is absorbed by the body so they only use the most carefully researched ingredients.

I've been using several of these products over the last few weeks so that I could provide you all with an honest review. And, let me tell you, there is a lot to like about these products. I like that they're made right here in Pennsylvania, in Philadelphia, to be exact. I like that Lindi Skin donates their products to non-profit cancer organizations, hospitals and caregivers. And, frankly, I like the packaging.

Here's how the individual products broke down for me...


Lindi Face Wash

This was my least favorite product. It doesn't foam and I'm one of those people who really, really likes foaming products. My current shampoo doesn't foam either and it drives me crazy. In spite of the lack of foam (by design, by the way), this face wash works pretty well. My face is literally squeaky clean once I'm done. But, given the lack of foam and the fact that I don't really like the scent, I don't think I'll re-order this once it's gone.


Lindi Eye Hydrator

I've never used an eye cream before (I know, I know, I'm a heathen) so I have nothing to compare this too. All I can tell you is that this product has worked very well in soothing the skin around my eyes that gets so very irritated by the cold wind. I can also say that it absorbs well and it only takes a tiny bit to be effective, which is wonderful.


Lindi Lip Balm

I didn't really love this product, for a few reasons. One, I don't really like lip balm you have to stick your fingers into; I prefer my balm in tube form. Two, it wasn't very soft so you kind of have to work to get it out and get it on. Once it was on, it worked okay, but it's not my favorite lip balm by any means and I won't re-order this item either.


Lindi Citrus Face Serum

The face serum is by far and away my favorite product. It comes in lavender too, but I chose the citrus because it's more of a unisex scent and my fiance uses it as well. It smells great and is very concentrated so you don't have to use hardly any at all. I used three small drops at night after I wash my face and it's great. I'll definitely be ordering more of this.

Happy Saturday, All!
