The record-breaking winter of 2010 and the havoc it has wreaked on our faces may be coming to a much-celebrated close, but now isn't the time to let the dermatological guard down.
Luxury skin care companies are debuting fresh products with cutting edge ingredients allowing you to spring forward to a new season with a radiant glow.
Here are a couple of my favorites available at Neiman Marcus, where, of course, you can take advantage of their biannual beauty event running through Sunday.
Check out La Prairie's White Caviar Illuminating Systéme. Thanks to, you guessed it, caviar, this luxury in a jar provides "firming benefits, while also helping to control excessive pigmentation that causes age spots and discoloration in the skin".
La Prairie's new line offers a cream ($450), serum ($450), and eye balm ($250).
Also at Neiman's is La Mer's hot out of the lab regenerating serum ( $250) to be worn under daily moisturizer. Not only does the serum offer the user a dose of the signature "Miracle Broth" but also marine plant stem cells that La Mer researchers claim rejuvenate the skin's youthful vibrancy.

Not at Neiman's, but something you should consider, is Alchimie Forever's Kantic Mask ($60) and Calming Evening Cream ($71) with blueberries, oats, and vitamin E to soothe and brighten skin that has weathered a harsh winter.
This product is so effective, only a twice a week usage is necessary.
