Dale's Fourth Week With The Summer Box

Dale is in her 50s and has combination skin, an oily T-zone, with dryness around the cheek and eye areas. Her concerns are minor acne, blackheads, rosacea, and fine lines. She lives in New Jersey, USA, which is a midatlantic climate. Lately it has been fluctuating between cool and warm temperatures; in the summer it may get hot and humid (75+ degrees Fahrenheit).

General Impressions

As I move closer to using thesummer box for one month, the more convinced I am that thesummer box was made just for me: a fifty-eight-year-old person, with wrinkles, combo-skin, and rosacea.   The summer box allows me all the flexibility I need for moving between different climates in one day, e.g., hot and humid at the beach and a cool and air conditioned workspace, while working wonders on my skin!  Whilesummer box is filled with hard working products, it is the delicate summery scents and textures that I look forward to in my morning and evening routines.

Changes I’ve seen

The redness on my cheeks remains diminished, and all dryness on my cheeks, at the corners of my eyes, and above my eyebrows is gone.  My combination skin is balanced, which means my t-zone is no longer excessively oily. The acne at my hairline is gone as well. My skin is no longer congested; it is balanced and moisturized.

Any changes I’ve made

I have shortened routines for when I’m pressed for time.  I have, for example, an after-workout routine (Peppermint Water,Coconut Serum,Bamboo Dry Shampoo, and sunblock) that I use when I have to dash off  immediately after a workout.Peppermint Water andCoconut Serum keep my skin happy when I’m on the go.

Overall thoughts

The summer box works with the fluctuating temperatures of summer, hot days, the occasional cooler days, and the down-right frigid hours of air-conditioned buildings.  It has my skin happy whatever the environment. I especially love having the Cucumber & Aloe Mist (coming soon!) to help calm my skin when it gets irritated by dry building.  One delightful mist is all it takes.
