Changing of Moisturizer for the Summer




















During the summer I must change my facial moisturizer to something a little lighter. I use Dove Sensitive Essentials Facial Moisturizer ($6.99, drugstores). My skin is always perfect during the winter but the minute the weather starts to warm up my skin starts to shine. I have oily skin but rarely any pimples just shiny skin.

This gives my skin just the right amount of moisture without making it super shiny. I know dewy skin is perfect for summer but not greasy and super shiny. It feel like it's whipped and I just use a small amount to my face and neck.

Reader's Frugal Glam Product



Yesterday, I volunteered my time to help clean up an abandon field for Earth Day. I can really feel my muscles today.

Here is a Reader's Frugal Glam Review, enjoy:

Terri uses Ambi Even & Clear Exfoliating Wash (5.99, drugstores) because it's gentle on her sensitive skin. It also gives her an clear and even skin tone. The best thing is, it's created for the specific needs of people of color.

If you have Frugal Glam product you would like to share please e-mail me at: frugalglam@yahoo.com. Send me the product name, price, where you can purchase it and why it works for you.

Great for Sensitive skin


This might be a little pricey for some but it's really worth it. I like to use Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream ($10.59 for 16 oz, drugstores) only during the winter because my skin is sensitive and sometimes need a little help.

I use this only on my body (I have oily facial skin) but it can be used for your face. I would still suggest doing a patch test first to make sure there is no irritation.

It's hypoallergenic, frangrance free and best of all will not leave your skin feeling greasy or sticky.

I would also suggest using just a little bit at a time because you don't need a lot for it to work unless you have really dry skin.

I would probably advise not using if you have oily facial skin because it is a little heavier than a normal facial cream.
