Off Topic Chatter: Face Wash Check In

*looks around* I started this so gung ho and then dropped off…*hangs head in shame*

My skin still feels so smooth, but I just have not kept up with it daily. (Side note: I don’t wear makeup so don’t freak out and think I’m going to bed with stuff on my face, I promise I’m not!!!)

I am happy I have found and stuck with a face wash though…do I notice my wrinkles still? Yes…I don’t think it’s done anything for that, but I do find my face to feel smoother and it hasn’t set my face on fire so I’m going to stick with it for now! Maybe when I run out I’ll try something different…

Any good face care recommendations???

Random Saturday: Face Wash Challenge

I came across this in a post where someone was starting the 60 second wash face challenge. This is quite a simple challenge…you wash for face for 60 seconds at a time for 30 days!

Easy right?

No…

So, I started by buying face wash…I know, I know, but I don’t wear make up so I’ve never really thought I needed it before. I have been noticing some fine lines appearing so I’ve been wanting to take care of my face. I bought…

Charcoal is supposed to be all the rage, get a good clean face, so it can’t be bad right? WRONG! My face started to BURN immediately…I thought, maybe that means it’s working?? I went on for 60 seconds and washed my face…I would give this a second chance…same thing, crazy burn and now my cheeks are red, RED. A quick Google search and I learned that’s NOT good.

I guess some people have a reaction to the charcoal and I’m one of them. Oh well.

So after my skin calmed down I tried this next…

Something that hydrates sounded promising…I only used this ONE time. My face dried out HORRIBLY! I got 2 dry skin spots just below my mouth. No amount of moisturizer was helping!! So…then I tried this…

Yes, that says rapid wrinkle repair…AND I got the rapid repair cream to go with it…guess what…so far, so good!

I think what started this all off was purchasing a jade face roller. I will admit, it probably does nothing, but it still feels sooooo good to roll it on my face. It’s nice and cool and just gives you a refreshing boost.

I know this is a little (ok, WAY) off topic, but sometimes we need a little break. Let me know if you’ve done any challenges like this with face washing or anything! They’re fun to do! I’ll try and remember and check back in again in a month and see if I can notice a difference in my face or just how I feel!
