It’s been a while since I’ve been on a formal skin care routine. Since I cleared up my acne, I never really got back to taking care of my skin – soap and water and a moisturizer. But, now, nearing a new decade, years of sun-damage becoming apparent and my skin just feeling “congested” (no acne, but dull and clogged pores), I knew it was time to face it head on. I tried all kinds of “natural” and “organic” products without results. (Not to mention, with the lack of regulation in the cosmetics industry, those words have little meaning). 

Once I learned that Beautycounter has an extensive list of unsafe ingredients (about 1500) that they will never use, total transparency about all ingredients and that they are moving toward more sustainable packaging, I started using the Countermatch Collection, plus the Resurfacing Peel and the results have been amazing. (Click here to read more about my Beautycounter why.) I wish I had before and afters for you!! This product line was definitely my gateway to Beautycounter. Once I saw the results, AND knew I was using a safer cleaner product, I was hooked. 

Why is a skin care regimen so important? 

Beautycounter’s Regimens (a 4-5 product set) and Collections (a 5-6 product set) are designed to work together to give you the best results possible for your skin. To maximize results, it’s important to cleanse, prep, treat and protect.  It’s a simple place to start. It’s also the best value, offering about 10% savings when you purchase as a set.

If the Countermatch Collection is right for you, now is a great time to snag it in the Big Clean Sale! I have been using this daily for the last month and I love it! The cleanser leaves my skin feeling clean, but supple. And I love that the lotion and sleeping cream are light, but moisturizing enough in this dry Colorado climate. The Countermatch Collection includes:

• Countermatch Adaptive Moisture Lotion
• Countermatch Recovery Sleeping Cream
• Countermatch Eye Rescue Cream
• Countermatch Intense Moisture Serum
• Countermatch Pure Calm Cleansing Milk
  

Purchased separately, these 5 items would cost $224, but if you buy during the Big Clean Sale event, you will save $92!! $143.80 is a great value for 5 products that work incredibly well together. (And don’t worry, I’ve had a lot of questions about whether this line will be around since it’s discounted, but the answer is YES!!! Beautycounter has just released new packaging for the line so rest-assured you’ll continue to have access to this line!)

Other options include Countercontrol for acne prone skin, Countertime for anti-aging benefits, Counterman for the men in your life and Nourishing for sensitive skin. Click here to see them all.
