One of the most important things you can do for your skin is use Vitamin A! There is creams that also are called Retinal or Retin-A that you can get as well. Vitamin A is really good for your skin and is easily absorbed into your skin as well. It isn't to much money, I actually buy mine on eBay. It helps with a long list of problems like, uneven skin tone, fine lines, red marks and makes your skin more luminous. Some people may experience redness with use so if this happens wait a few days and then start using it again. I cant tell you how important this is for great looking skin.
Vita-K Blotchy Skin
My problem is every since I was pregnant my skin became hyper active. This means for me if I get a blemish it turns red and stays that way for months. It has really been hard on my skin. So for 15.00$ you get 3 oz. of this cream that is enriched with ProVita-K Complex and Meadowfoam Flower. It is supposed to help with uneven skin tone.
Did it work after the first application? Yes it did. I was very happy to say that I looked brighter and more even. I had a bad dark spot on my chin and with in 3 days it took most all of the red out. I was very surprised. I will continue to use this for better results, but so far between 1-5 I give it a 4.5! If I keep improving then it will get the full 5.
The Best Perfume ever to be Smelled
I have to say that I am super picky about perfumes. I have a sensitive sniffer and usually do not like most perfumes that everyone else seems to love. There is one however that smells so good that it would be hard for me to believe that some one wasn't crazy about it. I know everyone has their own taste but I have found that this perfume appeals to all the people I have ever had to try it. What is it you ask? Its by Escada and its called Magnetism! It is amazing and I don't think anything will ever beat it. I did hear they might be discontinuing it so I went on EBay and bought a ton of it. I cant tell you how great this stuff is so if you see it BUY IT!
Unfair Compatition for Women
Since the time I was a little girl I was obsessed with being pretty. I always felt I needed to look just like the girls on the magazines or T.V. As I grew up and got into relationships I would always wonder if my boyfriend said to me, " your the most beautiful girl in the world." I would compare myself to the women that I seen on every magazine stand and feel that they were perfect. So I would try more and more things to get me the same looks. Things like airbrushed skin, flawless white teeth, and perfect hair everyday of the week seemed to be pretty hard to do. I truly wanted to be the best though.
I thought about this for years and then realized one day that I was competing with false images. After seeing a show on how much editing is done to even the best looking models before they get printed in a magazine, I knew my goal was out of reach. These women had professional makeup artist, lighting, and computer programs that fix any problem they have. The images the public sees have all been doctored up. I was competing with perfection, but needed to realize that it was not all "real". So in a way it still bothered me because I know when my boyfriend sees these pictures he will just see the beauty, not the editing or airbrushing that is done. I had to except the way the world is or I would never be happy.
My point is, I think so many times these magazines or pictures make woman feel insecure. This is sad to me because there is no way any of us can compete with this. I don't have professionals, lighting, and programs to fix me before I step out. We can only work with what we have and what we were given. The best I can do is take care of myself and eat a good diet and learn to be happy with what I have. If I am confident and happy then my mate will be as well.
