I've been getting a lot of compliments on my skin lately (natch), and between basking in the glow of praise of clear pores, I managed to remember that I had actually done something different with my skin regiment: EmerginC. No, it's not going to help you get over that cold faster (note the spelling difference, people), but it will give your skin just that extra dose of healthy it's been looking for. The folks at EmerginC aren't really doing anything revolutionary here, just filling their bottles with putting pure, fresh ingredients designed to give you pure, fresh skin. And the company has come quite a long way since it launched in 1996 with its skin-quenching Vitamin C Serum, with a full line of products in luxury spas all over the country (Miraval, anyone?)

From the Men's line, I've been waking up with the Liquid Gel Cleanser (love that Lemongrass and Rosemary) and hitting the covers with the PM Fortifier (who knew those anti-oxidents and age fighting proteins would help me sleep?) and after a few weeks my skin looks and feels fresh, balanced, and most of all, clean and clear. And it's not just in my head (cf, above compliments). So do as your mother/doctor told you and get yourself a healthy dose of EmerginC. It'll at least cure what's ailing your skin.
