Everything in Moderation

Sometimes I think we worry more about what we put ON our bodies than what we put INTO our bodies.  Nutrition is more important and effective than topical lotions, serums, creams etc.

And remember, as you are slathering on extra moisturizer...sometimes it is best not to over due it with the skin, hair, nail care etc products and just let your skin breathe.  Take a long hot (but not too hot) bath with lavender (or other favorite scent) salt and relax!  Your skin and muscles will thank you.

Even sunscreens can clog up your pores causing breakouts, irritation and extra oily skin. Try alternating a anti bacterial soap with a moisturizing soap so you don't over dry or over oil your skin.  Everything in moderation.

Good luck!

Another one bites the dust...

Well I let another beauty subscription go today and another is in the pipe for the same.  Guess I am just moving on to different things and ALL the subscriptions do take a bite out of the finances after a while. Its been fun and its good to see other bloggers who never seem to get tired of this stuff, new bloggers popping up everyday just now discovering new products, and those who never have a bad word to say and get giddy over anything they get.

Besides, I've got enough stuff I'll never use (mascara, nail polish, tons of dry shampoo (which should come in handy when the zombie apocalypse begins), tons of perfume, hair/skin oils, and a few other items that are great but I received the most horrific colors that definitely were NOT curated to me or my style) and I'm at a point where I can sucessfully discover new products that I like (skin care, hair care, body lotion, shaving products) or cosmetics in colors that compliment my age, skin tone & lifestyle.

Its great to be comfortable in your own skin...and that's where I'm at.
