Mask and I care … generally good
Ceekins “Tis not too late to seek a newer world.”
How I did it: I wash my face every single day and I never EVER sleep with makeup on (if I even wear makeup). I've never had an acne problem or blackheads or any sort of blemishes. I've just always had really great skin. Read how I did it…
How I did it: How did I do it? Well, I'm very sensitive to chocolate... but not to salty peanuts(PFFT you all who says that peanuts give you acne) Hm, my skin may not be perfect now, but it can be, if I don't eat chocolate. I love chocolate so much and I'm not going to give up eating it just because it gives me red bumps on my face.. seriously.. I don't have anyone to please but myself, really. I use an indian cream which grants results over one n… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I did my own research online, found some useful natural remedies, and paid a visit to a dermatologist.My acne seemed to be largly hormonal, but I can't be certain, because it hasn't returned. I think some of it had to do with the the Solodyn (antibiotic) clearing up infections within my skin to stop the reoccurence of breakouts. The other part I attribute it to are the natural remedies. Before and during the So… Read how I did it…

How I did it: I've always had manageable skin, even in the hormonal preteen years. As I grew older I noticed it was very pretty, acne free, and with small pores. I figured I was doing something right. In general, I wash it once a day with regular soap and, use Clearasil daily face wash (it has a great texture and leaves skin feeling very soft and clean. I'd recommend it to anyone) Sometimes I go a couple days without washing it, and natural oil se… Read how I did it…

I have always had pretty good skin. But lately, I’ve noticed that it is a little lackluster.
My first step is to consult my nutritionist. I’m hoping that she will okay me taking a Multivitamin called Multi+ Daily Glow. Appharently, these do wonders for your skin.
Otherwise I am eating clean, omitting sugar and salt from my diet. I am lactose intolerant, but I’ve decided to keep yogurt and cottage cheese in my daily intake to promote healthy bones.
So excited!

XaymacaNomad is working on her first 5 things
Bought a Target brand scrub ($2) and huge bottle Eucerin Plus lotion. My skin is responding very well.
is that I’m marking this goal as done. I know my scalp is dry and I would like to cure that, but it’s probably doable, unless the dryness is being triggered by a mild case, and/or the beginnings of psoriasis. That’s actually not out of the question. My mom has psoriasis and I just may have inherited it. Right now I don’t think so, because this has just occured in the winter months, and only began when I started walking outside more during my commutes to work. So why am I marking this as done? Because as I mentioned in my previous entry, for approximately 21 years of my life, I would have traded in the skin I have today for the skin I had then. Not only would I have done so, I would have been very happy to have done so, if I only could, and I finally could. I always told myself that if I only had dryness to soothe, it woudln’t be so bad. So here I am today. I have hesitated to mark this goal as done, because I didn’t want to jinx myself. It’s been around a year and a half since my acne has reared its ugly head, and well, if I’m coaxing it into returning just by mentioning it, then so be it, I will deal.
and my skin really is much better. It’s actually better than I ever thought possible. Shortly after I took that Solodyn about a year and a half ago, my acne went away and never returned. I’ve also kept up with natural remedies, mainly the honey/egg/olive oil mask I mentioned in a previous entry. It really seems to keep my skin in shape, unless it’s really just that my skin finally decided to behave on its own. For approximately 21 years of my life I wanted to trade the skin I had then for the skin I have today. That’s not to say my skin doesn’t have other problems. For the past three winters, I’ve had a problem with a dry scalp and dandruff. It could be due to aging, stress or hair dye, but what I think most of it has to do with is the fact that for these past three winters I’ve done more outdoor walking, especially as part of my commute to my current and last job. I wasn’t as badly affected this year as the past two years, where not only my scalp dried out, but also my face. I think that has to do with staying away from mud masks in the cold weather, doing a weekly egg/honey/olive oil mask if possible, and using Pond’s Dry Skin Cream on the brutally cold and windy days. As of February, 2008, when I changed jobs, I had the burden of being scorched by the spot lights over my my desk lifted from me.
This winter is over, but it doesn’t feel like spring yet. Just yesterday I saw a brief shower of snow flurries outside my office window, and yes, my scalp is still dry and flaky. I have tried using Selsun Blue and that doesn’t seem to help at all. I think as the weather warms up, my scalp will be back to normal as it cured with the warmer weather the previous two years. Plus, I’m ditching hair dye for now. It only seems to contribute to the dryness as I feel the burning sensation each time I dye it. Maybe one of these days I’ll treat myself to a scalp treatment at a spa.
so, i’m 14. and i know at this age, bad skin is normal, but i dont accept it. so i bought the neutrogena acne clear kit, which dries out my skin, but then i eliminated the sunscreen and added oil of olay to moisturize and it works really well. i never wore much makeup to begin with, but now its just coverup [on like the only zit i have] and lipgloss which doesnt count. i drink a LOT of water, which is good because i also started running track [exercise helps]. i think the only thing keeping me from having perfect skin is my diet. i just convinced my mom however, to buy a bunch of vegetable, so i think im not to far away from my goal.

lushuzpnay is going to go walk for a few miles
I’m a little confused about what kind of moisturizer I should use?
Here is my usual skin care routine, am I doing anything wrong?
morning:
wash face
use clearasil daily face wash
wipe with wet washcloth
apply biore triple action astringent (complexion clearing toner)
apply clean and clear dual action moisterizer + acne medication
night:
shower
use clean and clear blackhead clearing scrub
wipe with wet washcloth
apply biore triple action astringent (complexion clearing toner)
apply clean and clear dual action moisterizer + acne medication
am i using too many products? should I just stick to one brand? like biore?
