My new skin/hair routine...


When I first tried out these products by New York apothecary Malin + Goetz,
I promised myself that if I didn't love love loooove them- I wouldn't share them with you.
You know, the whole nothing-nice-to-say/don't-say-anything, thing...

You guys, I am SHARING.  I am in love.  I am OBSESSED with M+G.

I'm a very routine-oriented toiletry person.  I need a regime.  When I find something that works, I stick with it.  I am crazy-loyal to my "products".  I guess what I'm getting at is that it's not like me to make a huge change like this- 
and yes, my old stuff worked, but the honest truth is...  this works SO. MUCH. BETTER.  
If I had to pick one word to describe these products it would be EFFECTIVE

I'm going to break it down for you by item:

It's thick, super concentrated, and really refreshing.  Even Jeff is into it!  It just feels SO good.  It makes my hair feel incredibly clean, residue-free, mineral-free, and soft.  

Somehow they've perfected the balance between weightless detangling and clean moisture.  Smells light and rinses easily.  Leaves my hair feeling super soft and bouncy.

Also thick and concentrated, you need only a tiny amount, so it will last a long long time.  Cleans well, removes make up, but doesn't leave my skin feeling tight or stripped.  I love this stuff so much.  Eliminates the need for a toner, and prepares your skin beautifully for moisturizer.  I rinse with water only in the morning (no cleanser), and follow with moisturizer.  In the evening, I use this cleanser and follow with moisturizer again.  

Holy. Wow.  This is like a facial in a bottle.  I'm not even exaggerating.  Put it on, gently rub it in, and suddenly it "activates"!  The mask puffs up, bubbles, and goes to work.  It's a very quick treatment... about 5 minutes, and makes a huge, immediate difference.  The first time I did this- two friends stopped to tell me that my skin was "glowing"!  I now use this in place of my evening cleanser once a week.

If I had to pick one product that I simply could not live without... this would be it.  It feels so FRESH and comfortable!  I swear, it feels like this stuff is tapped from the fountain of youth.  I use it often, and it never feels heavy or greasy... just incredibly clean and dewy.  I can't get enough.

..................................................................................................................................................................

I'm so happy to let you in on these great products that have worked so well for me.  I hope you try them as well and enjoy the results!  Malin + Goetz includes 3 deluxe samples (of your choice) with every order.

Special THANK YOU to Malin + Goetz!!!

  1. SUPER excited! I've been reading your blog for awhile now (have been a fan of Jeff's for many many years and when he put a link to it, I was curious) but this is my first time saying anything. I love what you do here and you happened to touch on a subject that's been currently on my mind -- face masks!! I've been looking for a great one and after reading this post, I took the plunge and picked up the Detox Face Mask. It was expensive and where it was sold I couldn't get a sample first, but I trusted your judgement and went for it anyway; what a great decision that was! It has made my face feel quite delightful. Thanks for sharing this, and ALL of your wonderful tips, ideas, and REALLY AWESOME AMAZING photographs. You're clearly a talented lady.

    1. WOW! THANK YOU so much for your kind words and support of the blog! I always get so excited to hear from readers. I'm thrilled to know that this product worked for you- I probably sound like an infomercial, but I feel like Malin + Goetz has completely transformed my skin and whipped it into shape. :)

      Sara, you have totally made my day with these comments (it looks like you had some trouble posting them- sorry about that. Comments on older posts don't show up right away). Thank you so much for taking the time to share your good news with me, and I hope you continue to enjoy the blog as much as I enjoy sharing it.

  3. I've been enjoying your blog for some time now (have been a fan of Jeff's for many years; at some point he linked to your blog and I checked it out and have been a regular visitor since). This particular post happened to coincide with me being on the hunt for a face mask. I'd asked some friends and tried some other products, none of which I loved. After reading your love for this product, I thought I'd give it a shot. Unfortunately, the shop where I found the mask did not do take home samples. I hummed and hawed for a bit since the product is kind of pricey, but finally took the plunge and made the purchase. What an excellent decision; I tried the mask tonight and my face looks and feels just lovely. I'm glad I decided to trust your review and am looking forward to trying out some of their other face delights.
