moisturizing facial scrub

Gently exfoliates while leaving skin moisturized. When I read that on the 5oz tube of St. Ives Moisturizing Olive Scrub, I grabbed and put it in my grocery cart right away. Who wouldn't want an exfoliant and moisturiser in one tube?

I've been using St. Ives Apricot Scrub for the longest time so I know that this new scrub from St. Ives will not be a disappointment. The Olive Scrub beads are bigger, but fewer, than the Apricot Scrub. What I like about it is no matter how long I scrub my face, it doesn't dry up. Although my face feels clean and not dry after rinsing, I still put on moisturizer. Just to make sure my face is getting the TLC it deserves.

hide those pictures!

I don't want to see any of my close-up pictures when I was in high school. I cringe just thinking about it. I had pimples and acnes back then. Lots of it on my young face.

My mom never allowed me to use anything on my face except for soap. Well, I live in her house so I had to follow her rules! Dermatologists at that time were unheard of, in the province where I live, let alone acne pills
that can make the humongous acne's on my face vanish.

Fast forward to present time. I can now use anything on my face. My mom even asks what she should buy to prevent wrinkles on her face. I am now enjoying my freedom! Freedom to choose whatever is good for my skin.

And yes, I will exercise that freedom to forever hide my high school photos.

no more sleepless nights

Because of my bad sleeping habit, I now have eyebags. Ugly, dark circles under my eyes. Not my first time, but I do look much worse now that when I use to sport a didn't-sleep-for-months look before. I already tried the suggestions, some but not everything, found online when I googled "how to remove dark circles under eyes".

Maybe I should just stop experimenting and just go back to my cucumber regimen. It has always done wonders in removing my dark eyebags. Frozen used-teabags or an ice bag filled with ice cubes also does the trick.

I should also sleep early, not later than 11pm, from now on. I don't want to look like a zombie anymore.

acne problem?

I don't remember when I had my first pimple. But I can well remember that my acne problem was at its worst when I was in high school. If the best acne face wash was already available then, I never had the chance to use it. My mom forbade me from using anything on my face except for soap.

When I started using facial wash and scrubs on my face, the acne and blackheads we're not that of a bother anymore. If I could have only known about these products, when acne and pimples were multiplying rapidly on my face, acne scars could have been avoided.

Are you looking for ways to get rid of your pimples, acnes and blackheads? Try using the new facial wash and scrubs available in the market right now. If they can clean your face, they will definitely work on getting rid of your acne problems as well.

me? a movie star?

I can never be a movie star. I will never be able to adapt to the unpredictable and crazy sleeping pattern of these people. That will surely give me wrinkles. Then I have to use my earnings on the most expensive of the best wrinkle creams that I can get my hand on.

And what if I excel in dramatic roles? A few minutes of crying gives me horrible eyebags. Movie stars are supposed to look good all the time. How will I look good with eyebags and wrinkles? No, being a movie star is not for me. I'll stick with blogging.
