Tingly fresh skin

by

I’m having a night in – it seems. My husband is out of town tonight. Well – he should be home any minute, but who knows.

To keep myself occupied, and to take care of my skin I decided to give myself an at home facial. I gave myself a facial massage, and then I followed it up with a facial mask for 15 minutes.

Ah – that feels good. My skin is tingly and fresh. Oh and squeaky clean. Then, to top things off I followed my facial up with a good moisturizer. Now as I wait for my husband to get home I’m reading about wrinkle creams and treatments. If you want you can learn more by reading this site too.

Now if my husband ever gets here we can watch Glee! I hope he’s not too tired when he gets home.

Fair skin and sunny days

by

I was just saying on my other blog that I have a real problem with freckles in the summer. My skin is fair and when the sun starts to get stronger in late spring I suddenly find myself covered in freckles.

I never used to freckle … nope I’d just burn to a crisp, even if I was wearing sunscreen … but lately I don’t seem to burn, I just freckle and then freckle some more. LOL

Anyway I was just reading a prevera review and I discovered that not only might this cream help me prevent wrinkles but it might help with my freckle situation too. I’ll have to look into it a little more to find out if it really works but it looks promising.

Are you fair skinned too? How do you protect your skin and keep it looking great?

Maybe I should buy a parasol?

Gotta take care of your skin

by



Sometime in March I went on a mission to take better care of my skin. I’d gotten lazy in the past year or so and had pretty much stopped using moisturizer and well .. a few months ago I took a good look at my skin and decided I’d better start using moisturizers again and fast!


Ok it wasn’t that bad … I have fairly nice skin, but if I don’t take care of it, it won’t be nice for long – right?

So I went on a hunt for an anti wrinkle cream that suited my skin type and I’ve been using it regularly for the last three months.

What a difference! My skin looks fresh and well .. dewy. I’m getting a little older so I have a few wrinkle lines in the corner of my eyes – but nothing too bad .. and I think they’re a little less noticeable now.

Do you use moisturizer or anti wrinkle cream regularly? Has your skin benefited from it’s use?

Smaller pores, Clearer skin

by

I’ve been on a skin care kick for the last month or so.

I realized that since I’ve been home on medical leave I haven’t been taking care of my skin the way I used to. I’d all but stopped using moisturizers and pretty much any other kind of advanced skin care formulas.

Well .. in the last month I started using Noxema to wash my face with at least once a day. I actually put a warm to hot cloth over my face to open the pores and then apply the Noxema. I do this so it can really help clean my pores out. Then once I rinse it off the Noxema I rinse my face with cold water to close the pores again. Then I apply some moisturizer and I’m done.

I’ve always had large pores. Well not everywhere … just on my nose for some reason. I used to get blackheads .. mostly when I was a teen, but I find that when I clean my face this way my pores get smaller and clearer. No more looking up how to get rid of blackheads for me!

Now that I’ve gotten back to really taking care of my skin properly I can see a huge improvement.

Do you have a special skin care regime that you do once a day or once a week? If so, what is it?
