My Obsession with Skin Care

I think I might have found a line of products that will help me combat my adult acne, as well as stave off aging a little bit. It's called md Formulations, and I use their line of glycolic acid products. The miracle product for me is their Vitamin A Clearing Complex, which has 5% glycolic acid, 5% salicylic acid (never seen it that high before in an over the counter product), and 1% retinol. It's causing me to purge a little...but the breakouts clear up in one day! I'm hoping that if this stuff really works, and I can get my skin totally clear that I can start using a copper peptide product to help with the scarring I have. I have pits and depressions, unfortunately...maybe not as bad as some, but it's bad enough for me. So, we'll see if the md Formulations works!

Uh Oh, Shorts Season Is Coming Up Soon....

And for women, that means shaving the legs, even moreso than usual (like, every other day in my case). I can't use any of those chemical hair removers, and every time I've had a wax, I have a terrible reaction. Even with shaving, I tend to get ingrown hairs, so I have to use Tend Skin just about every time I shave to keep that from happening. It stings a little at first, but it's worth it in my opinion. If you can't use Nair or go through waxing...it's a necessity!
