Let’s Talk Neck and Chest Beauty and Skincare

Neck and Chest Beauty and Skincare jfaysbeauty.blog Over 50 Beauty Blogger — **JfaysBeauty.Blog**

How do you treat your neck and chest areas? Do you give them full attention or forget about them?

I always remember someone saying a long time ago that you can tell a woman’s age by her neck, and I’ve never forgotten that. It’s one of those things that always stuck in my head and I have been determined ever since to not let my neck look like yuck. Haha! Some things we can not help as we mature, but we can certainly at least try to keep and preserve as much as possible. It’s just like another old saying, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”

So, what do I do to try to preserve my neck and chest areas as much as possible? For starters, I try to keep it as simple and easy as I do my facial care, which actually, I treat my neck and chest exactly as I do my face. That makes everything easy and seamless, and makes it so that I never forget.

First up is cleansing and moisturizing. I use the same cleanser and moisturizer on my neck and chest as I do on my face. And those are my 2 very faves – Rice Water Bright Foaming Facial Cleanser and Physiogel Moisturizer.

Avon's Rice Water Bright Foaming Facial Cleanser and Physiogel Daily Moisture Therapy. — **Rice Water Bright Foaming Facial Cleanser** + **Physiogel Moisturizer**

The Rice Water Bright Foaming Cleanser is so luxe (and it’s on sale for $11.00 right now). It’s like a whipped cream texture and cleans so delicately, smells so good, and leaves my skin feeling moisturized. Love this so much. And I love my Physiogel just as much. The one I’m holding here is the facial lotion. I like this one, but I prefer the cream, so next order I’m going back to the cream, just because it is more luxe and I like the feel of it just a bit more, but they are both wonderful. The cream and lotion. So great for sensitive skin like I have. I smooth this all over my face, neck, and chest areas. Here’s what Avon says about their Physiogel line. You’ll love this:

Our Physiogel BioMimic Technology™ contains lipids that are similar to those found naturally in skin that help repair and strengthen skin’s moisture barrier, restoring the hydration your skin needs to stay strong and visibly healthy.

I’m linking you to the entire Physiogel Line so you can choose your favorite(s). They also have this in body lotion. So awesome!

Okay, so now we’re all cleansed and lotioned, what’s next? Well, if you’re of a certain age, you may want to go one step further and perhaps use a firming cream.

Dramatic Firming Cream for face, jaw, and neck areas. From Avon. — **Dramatic Firming Cream from Avon**

My choice is Avon Solutions Dramatic Firming Cream. This helps restore the elasticity of your skin. And super bonus, this is very, very affordable. Like $7.99 affordable right now. And again, great for sensitive skin. I have very sensitive skin, so anything I show you here that I am using, my skin loves it. Here is Avon’s description of this product:

BENEFITS
• Collagen helps keep skin firm and resilient
• Vitamin E helps provide antioxidant protection
• Vitamin A helps smooth skin
• Pomegranate extract helps firm skin
• Dermatologist-tested, allergy-tested
• Phthalate-free, sulfate-free, petroleum-free

I like to use this Dramatic Firming Cream along my jaw-line downward. Sometimes up a bit on my cheeks, but it’s not to be used around the eyes.

And there you go. Easy-peasy, and does not take very long. Just include your neck and chest in your regular routine to keep those areas’ skin looking as fresh as your face.

Now, if you want extra bonus points, here are a couple more neck and chest beauty ideas for you.

I also use Avon’s Isa Knox Collagen products several times a week, which includes their Micro-Needling Polisher and Collagen Boosting Ampules.

Avon's Isa Knox Collagen Booster Ampules and Microneedling Skin Polisher — **Isa Knox Collagen Booster** + **Microneedling Polisher**

When I’m exfoliating my face with the Microneedling Polisher (don’t worry, it’s very gentle), I bring on down my neck and onto my chest area.

Here is Avon’s description for you:

A highly effective combination of gentle exfoliators, including diamond powder and perlite, polishes away dull skin cells, diminishes the look of fine lines and wrinkles, and improves the appearance of pores for a smoother, more youthful look. You’ll see radiance reignited, fine lines and wrinkles reduced and skin re-plumped…and remarkably renewed.

This product is so popular that right now you have to Join the Waitlist, which I highly recommend. This is so fabulous.

I also love the Collagen Booster Ampules, but there is not very much serum in each Ampul, so it makes it as far as my jawline. You could open an extra one for your neck I suppose. I just treat these like extra special treasures. But I do follow up my neck and chest exfoliation with the Physiogel. My skin feels like silk after I use these products. I know I’ve told you that before, but someone may not have read my past posts. I use the Isa Knox Collagen Boosting routine about 3 times a week. These products are sold separately. The Collagen Booster Ampules are in stock and available. Again, great for my sensitive skin, so I highly recommend.

And – don’t forget to exercise your neck! I did a blog post a while back called “Girlfriend, You Need to Exercise Your Face”. You can check it out here.

Face and Neck Exercises — **Girlfriend You Need to Exercise Your Face**

I include the neck area into my facial exercises. See — always treat your neck as you do your face. Your neck will thank you!

And one of my last tips for neck and chest beautification is for when you’re applying your makeup. I’m sure everyone knows to blend your makeup down your jawline and have it gently fade so that there is no line distinction between your face and neck, right? Well, I also use Avon’s Magix Dust Finishing Powder to help with that issue, as well as give a beautiful smooth/finished look to my neck (and chest, if it’s showing).

Magix Dust Finishing Powder from Avon. — **Magix Dust Finishing Powder**

This Magix Dust is wonderful! It’s made with precious gems. Here’s Avon’s description for you:

Ultrafine precious gems, crystals and minerals combine for an ethereal glow that’s pure Magix.

This weightless mineral powder formula sets makeup, diffuses light, visibly blurs pores, controls shine and blends effortlessly to create a silky feel and a naturally glowing soft matte finish. With antioxidant green tea extract to enhance and smooth skin. .21 oz. net wt.

Magix Dust is on sale right now for $13.99. In our next campaign there is going to be an offer for the Magix Dust + the Avon Pro Powder Brush that I’m using. The set will be $21.50, and is a $35.00 value. I’ll post that when it goes up.

Okay! So we’ve gone through neck and chest cleansing, moisturizing, exfoliating, toning, and finishing. It’s really not hard to do when you incorporate it into your regular facial routine.

I hope you’ve found some inspiration from today’s post. I love sharing fun and helpful ideas with you. Let me know what you use in your routine. I love to hear good tips as well.

Dramatic Firming Cream (for Your Gorgeous Face) from Avon

**Avon Solutions Dramatic Firming Cream**

Happy Monday everyone! I hope you enjoyed a beautiful weekend.

I thought I’d pop by for a quick post today. My husband took today off, so we’ve been hanging out together. But, I did want to place my Avon c.17 order today, and came across this product that I’ve been meaning to try, and saw that it was on sale for only $4.99, so I thought, hey, now’s a great time!

And I wanted to pass along the info to you as well. Next week c.18 will be up and the price will then be $5.49, which is still great. The regular price is $10.00 a jar, but like always, when you shop with me, you get a discount. Yay!

The product I want to share is the Avon Solutions Dramatic Firming Cream. This Dramatic Firming Cream is for your face. Avon has other products that are for your body, but this one is formulated specifically to benefit your gorgeous face.

BENEFITS
• Collagen helps keep skin firm and resilient
• Vitamin E helps provide antioxidant protection
• Vitamin A helps smooth skin
• Pomegranate extract helps firm skin
• Dermatologist-tested, allergy-tested
• Phthalate-free, sulfate-free, petroleum-free

TO USE
• Use each night after cleansing and toning, or in the morning under makeup or alone. Apply a nickel-sized amount of cream on your throat and massage upward until completely absorbed. Then, beginning at the jaw line, gently smooth the cream on your face, moving toward your temples and avoiding the eye area.

Give your skin its youthful, tight look back with the Dramatic Firming Cream. The special formula works to firm and smooth while simultaneously moisturizing your face to return skin’s healthy elasticity. 1.7 fl. oz.

Sounds fabulous! I can’t wait to try it. My main focus will be along my jaw-line, I believe.

Avon has 2 other face creams in their Solutions line-up. Banishing Cream, Skin Discoloration Improver, and Nurtura Replenishing Cream. You can check all 3 out here. They are all $4.99 till tomorrow afternoon. Such a great price on these.

I also ordered my #1 favorite face moisturizer, Avon x The Face Shop’s The Therapy Oil Blending Cream.

**Avon x The Face Shop The Therapy Oil Blending Cream**

This will be my 4th jar of The Therapy Oil Blending Cream. I love this so much. I have very sensitive skin, and this is wonderful. My skin drinks it up and looks and feels much better when I use it, so when I’m running low, I make sure to get more right away.

• Leaves skin visibly smooth and glowing with essential oils that provide an all-in-one blending formula of anti-aging + hydration + nourishing
• Sandalwood (anti-aging), avocado (moisturizing) and palmarosa leaves (nourishing)

You’ve got to read more about this one – Click Here . I’ve blogged about this product before and will likely blog about it again much more in the future. I love products that use natural ingredients. That is always a plus to me, and my skin loves it.

Okay gang, this was supposed to be a short and quick blog. You get me talking Avon products, and I could go on and on all day!

But do take a stop by my Avon website and get some Avon Solutions for yourself and I definitely recommend The Therapy Oil Blending Cream very highly.

Cheers to beautiful skin at every age! I am proudly 55 and urge the younger ladies to take good care of your skin so that it will look great for a long time ahead. It’s never too early or too late to begin a nourishing skin regimen.

Till next time, stay fabulous and follow your joy!

Moisture Therapy for Dry Skin

Avon Moisture Therapy for Intensive Healing

Happy Monday everyone! I hope you had a fabulous weekend and enjoyed some beautiful weather.

And speaking of weather – it’s that time of year for the dry skin blues. But, you’re in luck, it doesn’t have to be. I’d like to share some of my already lotion faves plus some new lotion rock stars that I’ve added to my skin regime recently.

And of course these are all Avon lotions. Avon is definitely a skin care super star and these products have been such a comfort and a joy to me. If you follow me on my social media you may recall that I had a nasty fall in November. I’ve been on the mend, and am doing much better now – thank goodness!

I had two areas on my right leg that received injuries. My knee received a deep gash, and I also scraped my leg close to my ankle. My knee was my main concern, but I treated both wounds the same. My knee eventually got better, but the scrape got bigger and much worse. I ended up having to go to a Dermatologist for this issue and it seems that I had an allergic reaction to the antibiotic I was using. But getting to where I’m going with my story, using the Avon Moisture Therapy on my legs has been such a comfort – not on my wounds, but around the wound area and my complete leg area actually – it really helped my skin feel so much better. I had ordered some of the little holiday lotion sets that Avon was offering during the holiday season to give out, and I kept the Moisture Therapy Intensive Healing Lotion for hands, so that was the one that I used initially and it helped my skin so much, that I ordered the Moisture Therapy Intensive Healing Body Lotion and Cream. They are of a different consistency than the Hand Lotion, they are more creamy, which works very well for going right into my skin with no greasy residue at all. That was an important factor for me in my healing – that the lotion would work into my skin quickly – I had limited mobility lotioning up my legs since I could not bend my knee at first, plus the areas were sensitive so I did not want to rub very hard.

Another fabulous thing about these Moisture Therapy Intensive Healing and Repair Lotions is that they are great for sensitive skin. They are not perfumed. And that is also an issue that came up for me during this ordeal. The area on my leg that was allergic to the antibiotic lotion was triggered into some kind of eczema episode, so I had to be careful what type of lotion I used, and it definitely had to be very moisturizing and also unscented. Both of these babies fit the bill perfectly and I will continue to use both of these body lotion products. They both work awesomely – it would just be a matter of preference. The lotion pump is great. I like that I can walk by and easily get lotion for my hands or whatever on the fly. The jar of cream is great as well. It’s very creamy and luxurious feeling. I like to sit on my bed and open the jar and enjoy using this on my skin right after a shower or bath – And speaking of baths — I was finally able to take a bath for the first time in over 2 months – hooray!! I definitely needed help getting up and down – my knee caps are still a bit sore, but I did it! What an awesome feeling – You just don’t realize how much the little pleasures in life mean sometimes until you’re unable to enjoy them. A bubble bath!! With my favorite Avon Vanilla Bubble Bath!! I was so excited. I had a full bottle of my Vanilla Bubble Bath that I had just purchased back at the beginning of November, and it just sat there, waiting for me… But we finally got to connect again – Yay!

Now — another comfort and joy — and you know I’ve talked about Avon’s foot lotion before:

Well, let me tell you, this has been a great great comfort to me in my recuperation as well. My husband would rub my feet for me since I couldn’t bend my knees to reach my feet — Awwwww….. He’s been so sweet and kind to me through all this.

I usually use the Avon Foot Works Deep Moisturizing Cream, but this last time I ordered I decided to also try the Intensive Moisture Foot Cream, it says that it’s safe for Diabetics too (if any of you may need a special diabetic foot cream). I love them both! I’ve been using them both, and they both rub into my skin very easily – they both make my feet feel sooooo much better. The only difference I can detect is the aroma. They both have a very light aroma. The Deep Moisturizing Foot Cream has a very pleasant (kind of floral) aroma and the Intensive Moisture Foot Cream has a very light peppermint aroma. I highly recommend both of these – If you have a health issue perhaps go with the Intensive Healing one, but other than that – perhaps the scent would sway you one way or the other. Click Here to find the Intensive Moisture Therapy products on my Avon website – you’ll see that there is an Intensive Body and Heel trio listed for 8.49 – it’s a $20.00 value – that’s so awesome! It has body and foot cream. Also, there is a special right now on the Intensive Healing and Repair products – Buy 1 get one of your choice for FREE! Wow!

Avon Moisture Therapy Calming Relief Hand Lotion

And you know I cannot talk about awesome lotions without mentioning my favorite hand cream, Avon’s Calming Relief Hand Cream. I keep a couple of these babies on hand (haha!) at all times. Again, unscented, and this has oatmeal to provide great relief to your dry hands – easy to rub into the skin, and not greasy. Perfect combo. I am happy to report to you that this is on sale right now for $2.50 a tube – regular price is $6.00. Here is a link to the Hand Creams page – they’re all $2.50 right now! Get stocked up for sure!

I think I’ll wrap this segment up with my favorite facial moisturizing routine as well – Cannot leave your face out in the cold… I know – boooo…

I’m in total love with the Avon x The Face Shop’s new Rice Water Bright Foaming Facial Cleanser and The Therapy Oil Blending Cream. The Rice Water Bright Cleanser is made using – rice water! The milky white water is enriched with vitamins A, B & C, ceremide and minerals, and this helps your skin feel moisturized and look radiant. This does have a very nice light scent – I was concerned about it having a scent, but it has not irritated my skin, and my face feels really good after washing with this.

The Therapy Oil Blending Cream contains Sandalwood, Avocado and Palmarosa. Upon receiving it you will see that it has a layer of cream, and a layer of oils. They send a spatula for you to blend your formula. Once it’s blended, it stays blended. This is made from a 200-year-old formulation of flowers, leaves and fruits that help keep your skin feeling nourished and looking younger. It goes right into the skin very easily and is not greasy or heavy. It feels quite luxurious actually. This is lightly scented as well, and again, I’ve not had any issues with it being lightly scented. You can read a complete list of ingredients here.

I hope you find the perfect Moisture Therapy for all of your skin’s needs and that it will also bring you great comforts and joy. Having moisturized skin means so much and feels so great.

Till next time, stay fabulous, well moisturized, and follow your joy!
