Living in My Skin

I’ve been in the fashion and beauty biz for a long time, well over a decade. In that time, I’ve tried, tested, sold and purchased more product than I care to admit. Additionally, my skin is temperamental to say the least. My quest for products that work has been life-long. Through a twist of fate, I had the great pleasure of meeting and interviewing Vera Moore of Vera Moore Cosmetics. Mrs. Moore is a lovely woman – a true lady. Her story is impressive. Her products are amazing! During our interview, we spoke of her past profession as one of the first African- American soap opera stars, and her quest to find make up suitable for her complexion at a time when there was virtually nothing out there, and what did exist was truly sub par. By chance, or perhaps by destiny, Mrs. Moore is married to a chemist. Years of research and hard work have resulted in a superb product line. As part of my interview, I committed to living in the product line for a few weeks.

Vera Moore Cosmetics generously bestowed upon me a wide variety of products to test out and play with. To say I was skeptical would be a grand understatement. Wow! What an experience. I don’t think my skin has ever been so calm for so long. My daily and nightly routines have become a pleasure rather than a seemingly hopeless waste of time.

Hope in a jar has finally morphed into a solution and my skin is transformed!

From the first use my skin felt clean and fresh, already a good start.

I had no adverse reactions – even better. The next morning, no new breakouts – great!

By the end of the first week my skin was calmer and clearer. By the end of the second week I was really starting to get excited. Three weeks later, there is definitely a noticeable difference. My skin is not only calmer and clearer, but brighter, smoother, with a more even tone. I have now been using the Vera Moore line for a month and I can see my skin getting better as the days go by.

For me, the magic combination was:

Purifying Gel Wash

Glycolic Scrub with AHA and Aloe

Camphor Masque with Titanium Dioxide and Sulphur (Skin is so smooth after!)

Herbal Balancer

Oil Controlling Skin Conditioner

Spot Fix with camphor and salicylic Acid (This is one of my favorites!)

Glycolic Serum Renewal System for PM (I could actually feel this one go to work)

Vitamin C Serum for AM and PM (Helps with brightening and hyper pigmentation)

Healing Calendula Oil Free Moisturizer

Microsome Eye Gel

Not only is Vera Moore Cosmetics a highly sophisticated and effective skin care line, but it also includes a beautiful range of color cosmetics. I’m in love with a bronze lip gloss called Topaz. An eye shadow called Nutmeg and a blush called Honey.

Thank you Vera, my skin and I are grateful! Living in my skin has become a little easier.
