Davi Skincare and My Self Care Schedule

*This post is sponsored by Davi Skincare.*

What day of the week is it? What time is it? Like most of the world, I am currently sheltered-in-place to prevent the spread of Covid 19 and the days are running.to.geth.er. Right? If you would have told me a month ago that due to the corona-virus, I would now be restricted from leaving my house or gathering with others, I would have said “There is no way I’m going to be able to handle that.” Though current circumstances are sad and far from ideal on many levels, I, (surprisingly) am doing ok! I am not a home body. I am “let’s go!” “what’s next?!” and “change of plans!” When it was announced that we’d be going into lockdown mode, I realized quickly that I was going to need to make a lot of changes.

I knew one of the first things I needed to do was not just lock-down my household, but lock-down a routine! There’s no way I could stay inside my house for an unprecedented amount of time with two boys under the age of 6 and a lack of structure.  I also knew that I was going to really need to take care of myself if I was going to be emotionally and physically strong enough to make it to the other side of this without it being a completely miserable experience for my entire family.

I started writing down a schedule for my kids as well as my personal goals for each day. I know myself well enough to know that if something isn’t written on my list, it’s probably not going to happen. In an effort to take care of myself through “lockdown,” I wrote down “self-care” on each day’s to-do list.  Then I started filling in the “self-care” slot with specific goals. Sundays I paint my nails. Mondays I do an at-home facial. Tuesdays I read. Wednesdays I go to bed early, etc. Having these self-care goals written down is amazing! It’s something I will continue to do, even when our recommended quarantine is lifted! 

I want to tell you more about what I’ve been using for my at-home facials as part of my self-care routine! I received a box from Davi Skincare, containing their “Soothing and Illuminating Regimen.” This regimen includes three pieces: the revitalizing cooling mask, soothing eye cream, and their clarifying spot treatment. I used the revitalizing cooling mask for my facial this week and it was divine! Every face mask I’ve used in the past has felt heavy and cakey, and I couldn’t wait to get it off. This mask felt so light and cool! The recommended time to wear the mask is 10 minutes, but I went way over because I was in no rush to get it off! My skin felt so much cooler and cleaner after using the mask. I’m wearing the mask in this picture, but you can hardly tell. That’s how light it is!

I followed the mask with the clarifying spot treatment. Luckily I haven’t struggled too much with acne throughout my life but you know the stress of lock-down is bringing some nice little bumps to my face! This spot treatment uses grapes and grape seed extract to clean and clarify breakouts, build up, and impurities. I have been using this nightly, not just after my face mask. 

I love every product in this regimen, but my favorite one might be the soothing eye cream. I’m not one to complain about my looks but if there is one thing I wish I could change about my appearance it would be my under eyes! I don’t know if they have always been like this, or if it’s mom-life getting to me, but if someone were to judge me by my under eyes, they would assume I was in a recent train wreck. Like most Davi products this eye cream uses grapes and grape seed extract, combined with peptides and caffeine to give my eyes the boost they need every morning. The most unique thing about this eye cream is that it protects your skin against blue light pollution! Yes! Have you heard of another eye cream that does that?! This blue light protection is one thing that sets Davi Skincare apart from other skin care lines! Think about how much we are on our phones or around screens that give off blue light pollution! I love that I have found a line to protect my eyes against this!

Davi skincare pays tribute to Robert Mondavi’s wine and the tradition of carefully selecting ingredients such as grapes, grape seed extract and other powerful ingredients from around the world. Davi skincare is high end skincare! I am usually a low maintenance, frugal person, but if there is one thing I am willing to splurge on, it’s my skin! The only products I want to use on my skin, specifically my face, are clean products full of nutrients instead of fillers. Davi skincare checks all my boxes. I have loved using Davi products not only in my weekly self-care routine, but in my daily skincare routines as well.
