SKIN CARE
Remember the epic Monte Carlo Open Tennis trip we took a few years back?
My friends, Caroline and Casey, who were on that trip with me, recently launched an exciting gentle French and Korean-inspired skincare line, CeCe Freade.
CeCe Freade combines plant-based ingredients to calm, repair and support graceful aging. The Face Wash, Serum and Cream are ALL. YOU. NEED. We were advised to stop tearing off layers of your face and to take the Japanese method of nourishing instead. There is also a Protective Tonic Spray for beach, travel and city life which we find refreshing and supportive. All of these come in a medium size bottle-great for traveling and to try for the first time without a huge lift or cost.
*Meagan's True Confession: I have been putting Estrogen Cream on my face to plump and firm-a sneaky little trick I learned from fellow moms on the Upper East Side.
SUNSCREEN
Dermatologist Dr. Elliot Weiss, our friend and fellow tennis afficionado, sells Elta MD sunscreen at his office in Southampton. We find it to be the only sunscreen we are happy with-bar none. It goes on clear, it's not sticky or stinky. The body version is also fantastic. Both are noncomedogenic, made with zinc oxide and free of fragrances and parabens.
