Dr. Dennis Gross Stress Rescue Skin Care Saved My Skin

I’ve never had perfect skin, but recently due to a stressful job, being mother to an active 4 year old, pregnancy and out of control hormones, my skin was a hot mess. My texture was rough, I had hyperpigmentation, dark circles under my eyes, breakouts, eczema and every other horrible thing you can think of. My mom, an esthetician, and founder of this blog said “Chelsea, I have something wonderful for your skin, trust me.” Next thing I know I received a package of Dr. Dennis Gross Stress Rescue with Niacinamide Skin Care. My skin has changed for the better!

My results:

Let me just say that my skin is a whole new level of gorgeous now after using the Stress Repair Face Cream layered over the Stress Rescue Super Serum. My skin’s texture has improved for the better. Previously my skin was rough and bumpy, now it has smoothed out and and the dark spots from acne and hyperpigmentation from eczema is diminished. My skin is brighter and actually has a glow where before it always looked horribly dull and, well, stressed!

I also have extremely oily skin, but my skin is balanced and the oil production is minimal now. My skin just looks has a healthy, natural glow. While most products usually cause an allergic flare up on my skin, this one does not, and I’m so grateful for that. So I think it’s appropriate to say that this line is great for sensitive skin. I’m also very happy that Dr. Dennis Gross Stress Rescue with Niacinamide Skin Care is safe for pregnant women.

I had terrible dark circles, and I realize that I have them for many reasons. Heredity — my mom has dark circles. I’m also sure that my constant allergies contribute to my dark circles as well. Then there is the kid that seems to be the energizer bunny and refuses to sleep at night…

Stress SOS Eye Cream™ with Niacinamide has done a wonderful job at lightening my dark circles. My under eye area used to be so dry and irritated before uses this eye cream. Now, it’s calm and moisturized. I also had lines due to the dryness around my eyes, but because my eyes are so moisturized, I no longer have those lines.

My skin isn’t perfect but it’s come a long way. I am looking forward to my results from the next 30 days of using Dr. Dennis Gross Stress Rescue with Niacinamide Skin Care!
