What Do You See In Your 10x Mirror?

A 10x mirror may do wonders for eyebrow plucking accuracy, and a 12x is even better for zeroing in on the landscape of your face.    But, if you’re like me, when it comes to blemishes it can distort reality and not only warp the way you see yourself, but also the way you perceive how the world sees you.It’s true that taking a closer look at problems may help to solve them, but it’s also true that if you go looking for problems, you’ll be sure to find some, even when they don’t exist.

At 10 times the magnification, even regular pores can look like blackheads.  And if you start picking at them, you will actually make your pores appear bigger over time.

Your best bet? Take a step back and treat the magnifying 10x or 12x mirror as a that friend who only stops by to borrow some sugar!

Ease up on yourself…if you can’t reasonably see it with the naked eye…then there is probably no need to worry about it.

Want To Go Topless?

Want to Go Topless?

There are ways to save your face…

There’s no time like the summertime to get outdoors and enjoy the sun. No matter how hard you try, increased sun exposure June through August is nearly inevitable.                                                                                                                                               Going for a ride in that convertible on that beautiful warm summer day?

What to know? A convertible is just a mobile lounge chair and requires exactly the same amount of sun protection as you would apply before heading out to a pool party. Unlike other recreational sun exposure, it can even be worse because not only do most of us fail to think about applying sunscreen before driving, but the refreshing breeze and roar of the engine can dull your sun alarm so you stay exposed longer than you might normally.

What to do? Go ahead and take it off…go topless!   …a ride or two in a convertible this summer won’t leather your skin as long as you apply sunscreen before jumping in. And work the “convertible look” made famous by Audrey Hepburn, complete with a headscarf and sunglasses. Not only will channeling this style icon bring some added fun to your drive, but it will also protect your skin from the sun.

Picking Your Zits

Picking Your ZitsContrary to that little voice inside your head, picking your zits will not make your pimple go away faster, it will actually make it last longer. Picking only adds insult to injury and actually makes your skin work longer and harder to clean up the mess you’ve created, leaving behind unwanted reminders in the form of discolored spots and scars.

The best remedy is to take a hands-off approach and stay consistently on a comprehensive regimen designed to interrupt acne at all stages of pimple formation, including reducing oil production, unclogging pores, killing bacteria, reducing inflammation, and minimizing discolorations and scarring.

Trust us on this one! This is one haunting habit you can’t afford not to break.
