So, ladies, what is it about the big three-OH?
I don't feel, 30 but my body is definitely different!
I don't feel, 30 but my body is definitely different!
Those extra holiday Lbs are not budging like they used to.
My daily love affair with bread and my beloved morning bagels,
has sadly come to an end.
Egg white omlettes and fresh fruit please.
Aside from needing to tone up the triceps a bit more,
and up the ante on cardio/ab work,
my face is a changin'.
My skin is so different from 5 or 6 years ago.
I've been fortunate to have good skin,
it's never too dry or too oily.

However,
I feel like my pores have gotten much larger in the last year.
I'm starting to see more, gasp, wrinkles, and the skin around my eyes
just doesn't seem as tight and lifted.
I know, I am 30.
I'd like to think I'm embracing my age as best as I can, but I still want to have
"Young healthy looking skin."

{I just want to make sure I give my girl LC credit!!}
Here's my list of what I try to do to achieve this!
- Only drink water & lots of it (other than coffee or tea)
- I eat lots of fruits and veggies
- Stay away from fried foods
- I try to not touch my face; it is gross to think all that our hands do touch!
- Remove my makeup most days {working on this}
- Take mutli-vitamins
- Drink green tea
- Trying to sleep on my back {I'm usually a side sleeper}
- Always wear sunglasses
- Wear a hat in the sun
- Wash every day with a milky/creamer cleanser
- Use a deep pore cleanser every 3-4 days
- Get professional facials at least twice {if not more} a year-[I really love the "Sonic Facial" where it seems to take a few years of your face!!]
- Wear an SPF face lotion every day
- Don't tug on skin near/around eye when applying lotions
- Started using an eye cream
- Use high quality makeup {such as Bare Escentuals}
Out of everything I've tried, my favorite face lotion by
Olay
This sensitive skin formula has NO SMELL!
It doesn't leave me feeling greasy or oily.
And for night time, I like their
I am a firm believer in this eye cream too.
I can totally see a difference.
I even put a dab in between my eye brows where
there is a slight crease forming.
It is a tad pricey, but again, how much is botox?

I will definitely write up a review on it.

I tried a facial mask from LUSH before and I loved it!
It was a chocolate mint sample and I'd love to do it again.
So soft.
I remember when I was a teenager,
I read in my Seventeen magazine about an egg-white mask.
It turned from slime to stick and I don't think it did much
other than gross me out.
So I think I'll stick with some of these other natural DIYs!
I hope to implement a few of these!
