My Skin: How comfortable does it feel?	My skin now feels a 4.5 out of 10 (big improvement from my 2 starting point...and only 8 days in).
Product Observations	Toner doubles up as a very calming, refreshing and cooling hot weather mist. Mental note to reorder in volume so that I can carry one with me at all times - cue the return of 50 shades of grey as I fear my enthusiasm may put a jinx on the sunshine.
Activities/Mood	Sunshine I'm only dreaming...no, hang on it was actually a gloriously golden day.  Talked to my 3 year old nephew on the phone, his laughter is sunshine for the soul - double blessed with warmth today.
Ingredient for the Day	Avocado (key ingredient in Soothing Cleanser) "The avocado fruit yields a rich and deeply penetrating oil that is rich in sterolins and potassium which help to reduce skin pigmentation and accelerate skin regeneration."
