I'm doing 38 things
Thanks to the userscript that helps instantly tag LJ posts, I’ve made it through to the end of June 2004 tonight – it’s a big job but I’ll be really satisfied when I complete this one. I’m also tightening up my filters while I do it; a dual purpose activity!

I don’t think OCM is particularly effective for me, as no matter what oils I use, the massage/face-touching component seems to aggravate my eczema. However, in the process I learned a lot about my skin, so it was very much worth trying – currently I’ve moved to gently wiping Witch Hazel over my face, putting a little Jojoba oil on any eczema-threatening parts and moisturising with a cream containing lactic acid & urea. (I’ve discovered that my skin seems to fail at producing the humectants it needs to keep moisture in, so adding them myself makes a big difference.)
I’m not going back to shampoo/conditioner; the baking soda scrub is much better for my allergies and I love it!
