So some of you may or may not know but five years ago my husband and I decided to live out our dreams and travel around the world for almost two years. To say it was a trip of a lifetime is an understatement. I could go on for many, many posts about all of the amazing experiences, people, shopping & food we encountered on our trip...but not today.
Today I'm going to be talking about my initial panic when I first started to think about packing. If you haven't figured out by now, I love my nice clothes, shoes, cosmetics and face products. I used to be that girl that had to pack five bags for one weekend just because you never know! How was I going to bring all of my favorite things for two years? Well I am happy to let you all know I managed to travel with one suitcase and a carry-on bag. I'll reveal my secrets later.
One thing I was not going to compromise on was good product for my hair and skin. The skin care line that I was using at the time was not sold at enough of the countries we were traveling to, so I knew it was a matter of time before I ran out and would be in the middle of no where using foreign products I wasn't sure about. I did some research and quickly realized that the La Mer products are sold at the duty-free shops in most countries. I always heard great things about the product and decided to start using the line. Fell in love of course.
I'm a product girl. I love trying new lines, and I have since returning to the US because I like staying up-to-date with the latest technology. The one thing I would not give up was the La Mer eye cream, I love it. The great thing is that it's almost like Botox in a jar...ok, not quite but close. I've use it on the lines that are starting to form between my eyes and it is visibly better. I think a great eye cream, getting your sleep, drinking lots of water and eating a healthy diet will help your skin remain youthful. This is one of the reasons I have chosen to offer it in my OpenSky shop. Come stop by. It's been a faithful companion to me and helps to keep the wrinkles under my eyes away!
