It’s Friday!
And we’re home from vacation.
Boo.
We got home yesterday afternoon, so today is all about laundry. And groceries. We need clean clothes and food. Stat.
Tons of pictures (I mean TONS!) to come. In the meantime, something new 🙂 .
Today is a special edition of Friday Favorites because I only have one favorite thing. I’m linking up with three of my besties, Andrea, Erika and Narci and doing my first ever product review! (At least I think it’s my first…I do not remember doing one in the past…)
I’m reviewing this…
At the beginning of the month, NeoStrata reached out and asked if they could send me their Tri-Therapy Lifting Serum to review and you know what? I was intrigued.
I’m always talking about skincare (my most recent skin care post can be found HERE), and when I looked this Tri-Therapy Lifting Serum up online, it was something I thought I could really like. So, they sent me some and you know what? I’m loving it!
I’ve been a faithful serum user for years. They are just full of all the good stuff your face needs. I always apply serum right after I wash my face and before I moisturize (letting it soak in a minute).
So, even though it’s only been a few weeks, I’m impressed by the results already. I like this serum for many reasons, one the price (it’s less than my original serum…and serums do tend to be pricey but they last a very long time), two, the texture, it goes on really light and smooth almost like water (see pic above) and three, I think I’m already seeing results. Call me crazy, but I think my skin already looks more plump, dewy and dare I say…radiant 🙂 .
So, that’s my favorite for today. This Tri-Therapy Lifting Serum…
…I’m going to keep using it and will let you know what I think. I am still using all of my other skincare products, I just switched my AM serum to this one instead. (See my complete skin care post HERE.)
Disclaimer, when they sent me this serum, I told them that I wanted to give an honest review. If I hadn’t of liked the product, I either would have told them I didn’t want to review it or said so here. I just want you guys to know that. I take my skincare seriously and wouldn’t want to lead you astray 😉 .
If you’ve tried this product (or any of the NeoStrata products, please let me know!). The reviews are pretty outstanding! I think everyone is a fan of their brand.
Whew! Enough for today…time to do laundry. See you girls Monday. xo
Pssssssst…and for even more NeoStrata products, look below…
Happy Friday!

Lizzie @ This Happy Life says
That stuff sounds amazing!
Dawn says
I love NeoStrata products. I’ve been using their Resurface Foaming Glycolic Wash and Sheer Hydration SPF for a few years. My aesthetician recommended it and my skin has never been more clear.
Mix and Match Mama says
Okay, now I’m really interested in the SPF. Do you use it daily?
Dawn says
I do. I use it every morning before my makeup routine.
sydnee says
Ok, I’m intrigued! Your skin looks radiant.

Lindsey Buckmaster says
I just bought a new vitamin C serum for my morning routine. ? I’m out of my night serum though, so….do you think this would work ok as a night serum (before my tretinoin and moisturizer)? Thanks so much!!
Mix and Match Mama says
It says on the box that it works for both AM and PM!
Amanda @ Cupcake N Dreams says
I haven’t used a serum in awhile so I’m definitely interested in finding a new one. I like that it works for both AM & PM too. Welcome back!

Lauren Waters says
I love their sheer hydration spf 35 & recently got the active matrix support spf 30 for spring/summer activities & only used a few times but so far so good. You can’t go wrong with any of their products! My derm recommended
Samantha says
Because of your last skincare post I am now hooked on Tula! All of their products 🙂 just wanted to say thank you!
Amanda @ That Inspired Chick says
Can’t WAIT to hear all about your trip!! And I’ll be sure to check out this serum! That Inspired Chick
Liz THORSON says
Intrigued by your positive opinion re NeoStrata serum and the pro coments from some of your followers. I think I’ll ask my dermo if she thinks products from this company would be great for me to use! Thank you, Shay!
Shelby says
Hi Shay! Your blog is my fav, & I just listened to your convo with your dad! It warmed my heart! He reminds me so much of my own dad, & what he said about reading John then Romans has always been my Dad’s advice as well. There is no denying your bond. What a precious gift. So as far as skincare lol change of subject …I am curious as my dermatologist is SO specific on what he wants me to use as a routine that what does your derm say about trying new products that they do not personally recommend. Does that mess with their regimen for you? I just always want to try new things but the derm “scares” me from trying lol if that makes sense!? ~like ONLY use brands and what he recommends.
Mix and Match Mama says
My derm knows how much I love trying new things. Ha! She always just tells me to make sure I have one of everything (SPF, vitamin C serum, Retin-A, day cream, etc). When I see her, I tell her what I’m using, but she knows i love to switch things up.
Shelby says
So good to know! I need to find one like her! Haha!
Katie says
Hi Shay! Have been loving your blog for years now. It’s just so good. Would love to see Easter basket ideas for your kids. xo
Mix and Match Mama says
You know what…in our family, it has been a long standing tradition that the grandparents do the Easter baskets (don’t ask me why…I don’t know…hahahahaha!), so I don’t do that. My mom will do the baskets for her five grandkids this year.
Nicole says
Hey Shay! This is totally random, but have you ever done a cleanse before? Interested in trying one!
Mix and Match Mama says
I haven’t. I’ve always been curious about the Master Cleanse though.
Emily Dimitt says
I live close by and I’m on the hunt to find a dermatologist. Do you mind sharing who you see? Thanks so much!
Mix and Match Mama says
Email me! I’d be happy to!!
Kathleen says
I love their glycolic acid peel. It makes your face soft and supple and definitely gives you a glow. I am hooked!
Maria Thomas says
Have you tried the Drunken Elephant products yet? I’ve been using them for a little over a month and I have never been happier. Give them a try…I have a feeling you won’t be disappointed.
Mix and Match Mama says
I’ve never even heard of that! I’m so intrigued though!!! Googling now!
Jen says
I would love to hear your opinions on hair products for girls- what do you use on Kensington to make sure the chlorine is getting out, etc? My daughter swims a lot and has medium length thick hair and it gets so dry and tangled! I need ideas!
Mix and Match Mama says
Right now, she’s sharing my Moroccanoil with me. About a year or so ago, I switched her from kids stuff to whatever I was using, because her hair just wasn’t getting clean enough with the kid stuff any more.
