Newbies

For the past month my acne has been acting up and it's annoying me. Very irritating because I'll get rid of one pimple, the natural way, and another set will pop up. It's now July my face has cleared up. But I stopped by the drug store because I needed a new face wash and I saw that Clearasil was on sale, so I decided to pick up this product.



It is the Clearasil Acne Treatment Cream with skin conditioners. There was a flesh toned version as well, I guess it was a similar to a medicated concealer. This cream features a new medicinal ingredient in it which I have not tried yet. It has 3% sulphur with 2% resorcinol.

As I washed my face last night (Wednesday) with my Clearasil face wash I applied this cream to my problem areas. It was very drying, and it does note that on the tube. Just let the product set in and apply your ideal moisturizer.
** Make sure you wash your hands after applying the cream because it can really irritate your eyes.



This morning when I was washing my face I noticed a big difference. The cream had diminished these pimples that have been on the side of my face for about 2 weeks now. I didn't have a reaction to the sulphur, just dryness. My cleanser does have 2% salicylic acid.

I'm going to try this product out and blog about the results :)
All I need now is a great scar removal remedy!

Pink Lips

Whoa! Sorry for being MIA on blogger, forgive me, I've been busy looking for a job and attending interviews, here's hoping :) Crossing my fingers!

Anyway, I wanted to blog about lipstick. I've never worn lipstick, ever.. I hated it. But recently, actually 3 months ago, I came across this perfect red lipstick that my mom has. She wears lipstick all the time. I tried the red for the first time and I fell in love. The problem? I have no where to actually go with this look lol.



I don't have the guts to wear a dramatic colour, but I'm going to have to step out of my comfort zone sooner or later. Also I hate that the lipstick gets on my teeth.. I need to invest in a good lip primer.



Last month I received this fuchsia lipstick from my cousin. I took the cap off and was astonished at the pigmentation. It so happens that it is the same brand as the red.



Yesterday, I was playing around with lip colours and totally fell in love with the fuchsia. I layered it with a light pink gloss, which is why I love the colour even more.





I need to work up the courage in order to set foot out of my house with these lips. They're fierce and I need to embrace that!
