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.

custom prescription skincare subscription

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’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!

AD / COMPLIMENTARY TREATMENT: I received this DENS AD / COMPLIMENTARY TREATMENT: I received this DENSITY RF treatment at no cost in exchange for sharing my honest experience and review.

At 61, I’m always exploring ways to care for my skin and maintain a healthy, youthful-looking glow without surgery. This treatment caught my attention so I’m taking you with me to my treatment appointment at @orangetwist.alliance in Ft Worth, Texas.

So, what exactly is DENSITY RF?

DENSITY is a newer FDA-cleared, non-invasive radiofrequency (RF) skin rejuvenation treatment from Korea that uses controlled heat energy to reach both superficial and deeper layers of the skin. It combines monopolar and bipolar radiofrequency energy to help stimulate your body’s natural collagen and elastin production, which play an important role in skin firmness and elasticity.

What can it help with?
• Improving the appearance of loose or sagging skin
• Supporting firmer-looking skin and a more defined jawline
• Smoothing the appearance of fine lines and skin texture
• Encouraging natural collagen remodeling over time

There are no needles and no downtime. The treatment was comfortable most of the time with a few spicy areas, especially on my sensitive neck. My skin was a little red after the treatment, but that resolved within 30 minutes on my face and an hour on my neck.

While some tightening may be noticeable earlier, results can continue to develop over the following weeks and months as the skin produces and remodels collagen. Results vary from
person to person, and this isn’t an overnight fix, but I’m so excited to see improvements in my skin going forward.

I’m sharing my experience because I know so many of us over 50 are interested in non-surgical facial rejuvenation, collagen-stimulating treatments, and ways to support healthier-looking, mature skin.

I’ll be keeping you updated on my experience and how my skin looks over time!💗

Would you try the DENSITY RF treatment?

I’ve added two supplements from @ritual to my daily routine:

Ritual Perimenopause Hormone Support — designed to support women navigating the changes that can come with perimenopause. They’re formulated for women over 40 who are seeking hormone balance.

Ritual Essential for Women Multivitamin — to help fill nutritional gaps in my diet, because even when we try to eat well, we may not get every nutrient we need.

I also appreciate Ritual’s focus on ingredient traceability and transparency. And the good news? You can find Ritual at @target, too! 

Taking care of ourselves doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes it’s the small, consistent habits that make us feel like we’re showing up for ourselves.

#ad My morning skincare routine has gotten a LOT s #ad My morning skincare routine has gotten a LOT simpler over the years. I’m not looking for 10 different steps. Instead, I want products that are easy to use and easily fit into my everyday routines and @CeraVe has me covered.

Here’s what I’m reaching for lately:

• CeraVe Brightening Vitamin C Cleanser
• CeraVe Super Boost Serum with 3 Essential Ceramides — definitely my favorite step!
• CeraVe Brightening Even Tone Lotion for face + sensitive areas
• CeraVe Skin Renewing Brightening Lotion SPF 30 in the am for sun protection

As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned that a skincare routine I’ll actually stick with is so much better than a complicated routine that ends up sitting on my bathroom counter collecting dust.

If you’re looking for a simple morning skincare routine for mature skin, skincare for women over 50, brightening skincare, or an easy daily skincare routine, this is a great place to start, and you can pick them all up at @target or on target.com.

Do you keep your morning skincare simple, or are you a 10-step kind of girl?🤔

Looking after ourselves doesn’t have to be complicated… sometimes it’s just a few little beauty rituals that make us feel our best.
 
Tonight’s nighttime beauty routine featured a few finds from QVC…
 
• Tweezerman Facial Razor & Replacement Blades for a little at-home facial grooming. I like these for removing the peach fuzz so my makeup goes on smoother. Beware, these are sharp!
 
• Beekman 1802 Milk Rx Better Aging Compress Mask (came as part of a trio) to calm and soothe my skin after I did some exfoliating with the razor.
 
• Philosophy Fragrance 3-in-1 Shower Gel & Lotion for a relaxing bubble bath and a little everyday luxury. The Pure Grace scent is clean and refreshing.
 
I love finding beauty and skincare favorites that make my self-care routine feel special, especially when I can find them at a great price and I always feel like I can count on QVC for that.
 
Have you checked out the beauty deals and sales on QVC.com or in the QVC app lately? There are so many fun finds worth browsing! You never know what little beauty treat you might discover and with the holidays coming up, they have great gift options too.
