Murad's Radiance Duo; All about the glow

Murad Advanced Active Radiance Serum
$89

Murad Essential-C Day Moisturizer
$60

I'm often asked what is my favorite serum.  I think the best answer is the one I circle back to most often, Murad's Advanced Active Radiance Serum. At $89 for one fluid oz, it's pricey, but not as pricey as my once beloved Skinceuticals Ferulic Acid Serum.  (And Lord knows, it smells better!)

The immediate glow, literally makes my skin look lit from within.  Could you ask for more?

In May, I received a gift from Murad, as a reminder of Skin Cancer Awareness month. It included the Advanced Active Radiance Serum, their Essential-C Day Moisturizer with SPF 30 and sweetly, a pair of bright orange sunglasses.

What Ever Happened to Sweet Baby Jane???

Well, she was alive and well on Saturday...

(For those of you who don't know What Ever Happened to Sweet Baby Jane is a 1960's cult horror film, starring real live rivals Bette Davis and Joan Crawford.  Baby Jane, played to camp perfection by Bette Davis, is a former child star who tortures and torments her sister Blanche.  Blanche was the prettier and more popular of the two in their 20's. A car accident after a glittering party keeps Blanche wheel chair bound and in the throes of Jane's evil clutches.)

I was in CVS last week, which is never a onesie, twosie proposition.  I spied a small tube of DermaSilk's 90 Second Eye Lift, that could later be purchased and later redeemed for a $5.00 off the product above,  Just for the fun of it, I popped it into my bulging  red basket.

Then came the blizzard of 2013, where I got to spend a blissful 32 hours in my jammies.  By mid-afternoon Saturday, I officially had cabin fever. When my husband suggested going out to lunch and to see Side Effects, (FAB btw...), I rallied.

My husband would make a magnificent Firefighter.  The man can literally be dressed for any occasion, including Black Tie, in under 2 minutes.  His patience for my lotions, potions, maquillage and blow dryer time is nothing but admirable, but this time we needed to chop chop. Not a good time to give DermaSilk's 90 Second Eye Lift a test drive, but who knew???
