Personalized Skincare Prescription by Mail

April 6, 2018

Affiliate Links

How would you like to have a single product that contains three ingredients that are customized to your own personal skin care needs? When I saw the company called Curology and read about them I knew this was something that I wanted to try. As you know from my blog, I’m willing to try nearly all topical skincare treatments that promise to anti-age my skin. The concept that is behind this company’s methods really intrigued me.

The process is actually very simple. You sign up by answering a survey about your skin as well as answering questions about medications you’ve tried in the past. You then upload a few photos of yourself without makeup so the healthcare providers on the Curology team can see you current skin condition. A customized medication is formulated for each patient based on their needs. The bottle is shipped to your home. You then decide how often you would like to receive future bottles of medication (once or twice per month). You can cancel your account at any time as well as message your medical provider with questions or concerns.

Curology customized skincare prescription

Above is the box that arrived at my home just a few days after I submitted my information and photos.

Curology anti-aging skincare

One bottle of personalized medication costs $19.95 per month. However, when you sign up you get a free trial bottle and only pay for the shipping which is $4.95. They also offer a 90 day money back guarantee. Some of the skin issues addressed are acne, wrinkles, dark spots, skin texture, skin firmness and more. I believe they offer topical medications and sometimes prescribe oral medications if indicated.

Above is my personalized bottle of medication. It contains:

  1. Tretinoin – a pore-cleansing, acne-busting, and anti-aging all in one ingredient. I was happy to see the .012% as my skin is very sensitive to this ingredient and this is actually the lowest dose I’ve ever seen.
  2. Vitamin C 5% – stimulates collagen production to reduce fine lines and hyperpigmentation.
  3. Niacinimide 4% – a form of B3 that acts as an antioxidant, reducing inflammation, hyperpigmentation and fine lines.

The bottle come with instructions to apply a dime size amount to face and neck to clean, dry skin in the evenings. I’ve been using this for just a few days now, so I obviously don’t see any differences in my skin. However, my skin feels nice and soft and has no irritation from the ingredients.  I’m hopeful that this super combination of ingredients will have some anti-aging effects on my skin.

    I am curious to hear what you think about it after you have used it for a while longer. It sounds promising!

      I’m hoping that this is a winning combination for me. I’ve never seen Tretinoin mixed together with these other ingredients. I’ll update after a few months of use. Stacie xo

    Hmm, interesting in that it’s an all-in-one treatment! But my last vitamin C was a 30% suspension so your skin must be in excellent shape if they’re suggesting 5%. Curious to hear how you like the service and products longer term.

    This sounds so unusual. It’s interesting that you call it a medication but I guess that’s what it is. I hope you’ll share a follow up when you’ve had a longer time to test it.

    I have been curious about Cureology, too! I just started back on Tretinion. So, I would be curious to see the difference in using this product that has Tretinion mixed with other ingredients versus just using it plain. Also, I like the idea of the strength of the Tretinion being customized. Looking forward to reading your updates on how you like this product and service!

The star of the show is really the peanut butter plant based protein powder. It’s gut-friendly, made from just 6 clean organic ingredients and NO artificial sweeteners.�

No sponsorship here, just spreading the love to fellow vegetarians and protein fans. 

Have you tried it?��

I make mine with 8 ounces unsweetened almond milk, 1 scoop of protein powder and I like to add a handful of frozen dark sweet cherries. I usually have a smoothie in the morning or afternoon.

It comes in about a dozen different flavor options, including an unflavored option too. Let me know if you want a list of places to purchase.�

Once I start talking about something that I’m pa Once I start talking about something that I’m passionate and excited about, I just don’t stop. That’s why I decided to post some long-form videos on YouTube (where I started my journey back in 2010).

I love makeup, skincare and anything beauty. I also love clothes, jewelry, handbags and accessories. That’s what I mostly share over there. 

I hope you’ll join me over there with your morning coffee. I plan to post once a week (on Fridays) for now. 

Let me know if you want the LINK to this week’s video (also link in my profile). I’m pretty proud of it, if I do say so myself.😉

For this week’s video, I shared what I packed in my vacation makeup bag (I kept it extra light) and also few outfits that I wore (most items are on sale).

July favorites photo dump… These are some of t July favorites photo dump… 

These are some of the clothing and accessories that I loved wearing and sharing with you throughout the month of July. And apparently, all of you loved them too!💖💖

These are some of my favorites and bestsellers for women over 50, 60 and beyond. I always say to wear what makes you happy and not what society dictates.  Because if you love what you’re wearing then you’ll feel your best, boost your confidence and achieve your goals.

Age is just a number! Who’s with me?😎

Let me know if you want LINKS to any of these outfits with sizing details.💖

I’m all about affordable fashion (most of the time😉) and shopping the best sales and deals. If that sounds like you too, then give me a follow for lots more.🥰
