Moonstruck in Jersey's Blog

I love trying new product – who doesn’t?!  There are so many potions available, some of them “speak” to you and others do not.  I have been lucky enough to find numerous products that I enjoy and I like to rotate them as I feel this keeps my skin on it’s toes.

One of my newest finds is Truffle Serum by Skin & Co.

This blend was created  in 1953 by Giuseppina Balestra and sold in her luxury boutique.  It became an instant hit with Hollywood super stars filming in Rome.  60 years later her grandson, Gabriel Balestra, working with one of Italy’s oldest universities, brought his grandmother’s formulas into today’s world.  The truffles are grown on the family’s farms in Umbria and they are the base of the truffle infused skincare.

I received two samples during the holidays and I was just about out of the serum I had been using, so I decided to give it a try with my evening skincare routine.  It felt like velvet on the skin and absorbed instantly.  The smell was delicious and when I got up the next morning, my skin was radiant.  I have been blessed with great skin, but radiant was not a word I would have ever used to describe it – until now.  Needless to say, I have been using it ever since.

My skin feels soft and the texture is very even, which allows make up (need to disclose that my foundation is a tinted moisturizer) to go on flawlessly.  I also use it on my neck before I put on a neck cream.  A moisturized neck is a younger looking neck, no matter what your age.

This is a more expensive product, but very little goes a long way.

The Italians do everything better, but of course, I am prejudice!
