Skin Care Fridge
October 19, 2019
I recently made a purchase that exposed my "too much" gene as Jenna Marbles would call it. I bought a tiny retro fridge specifically to hold my skin care products. Yup-- I'm that bitch now. You may ask "What is the purpose of a skin care fridge?" Well... there isn't really a purpose or point. Products don't necessarily have to be kept cold, but damn to they feel good on the skin if they are! Certain products may gain a little extra shelf life if kept refrigerated such as products with retinol or benzoyl peroxide. So, why not keep them cold!?
I do not currently have any products in my routine that are perishable, but I have in the past. Lush USA has an amazing mask called "Mask of Magnaminty" and it is perishable and must be kept in the fridge. I used to use this all the time, but got tired of having to go to the kitchen to grab my skin care. It got to the point where I would forget that it was there and it would go bad before I could use it all. I stopped buying it because I was wasting my money! Well-- now I can add it back into my routine!
Besides the perishable products there really is no need to keep your skin care products chilled. The only other benefit would be that the chilled products do help to calm irritation and swelling. I just like how it feels, so I decided I needed a boujee mini fridge. I like to keep my moisturizers, under eye patches, toner, essence and exfoliating pads in there. When I do my skin care routine (you can find my skin care routine HERE) in the mornings it wakes me right up and helps to eliminate the puffiness in my face after sleeping. It is really one of my new favorite things!
