We’re just as surprised as you are—editors of nonprofit lit mags need social interaction, too. That’s why the Epiphany team took a breather from reading submissions and proofing our upcoming issue for a backyard hang. Thank you to our fierce Editor-in-Chief @sara.lipp for having us in your lovely home this week!

Skin by Mamie’s new products are just brilliant because they are easy and simple to use, especially for those new to skincare. Begin with three simple steps for your regimen. Cleanser, serum, moisturizer, and added bonus, the Rescue remedy (3+) to use overnight, or if you are planning to fly, and need extra moisture. Also, if your skin is dry/dehydrated/sensitive. The secret that sets this skincare apart from all else, is they are sugar-based lipids that naturally aids in drawing moisture, as it helps to retain moisture as it absorbs. Resulting in hydrated, plump, soft dewy skin. Better that glass, it glows! #skinbymamiesproducts #skincareishealthcare #gettingskinready #mothersdayspecial #skincareroutine
