Beauty is skin deep October 18, 2006

I will admit, I am not THAT vain. Really.

I am trying to work out to be healthy. I am trying to get to my goal weight to avoid the "weight gain of the midyears" as I hit my late 30s.

Only recently have I started to really pay attention to my skin. It started after Luna was born. A friend got talked into a Mary Kay visit. She wanted moral support, so a few of us went with her. I bought a few items and used them.

Slowly I discovered that I liked how my skin felt using the Mary Kay stuff. I have never been high on makeup, but I realized that I should start taking care of my skin. I am now using the right cleanser (feels nice) and a daily sunscreen (which I am good about since I BURN otherwise) and a light moisturizer. I am also using the "day/ night solutions" which help "reduce lines and wrinkles". Surprisingly, they do. I am very shocked how these products work. I like how they make me feel and they keep my face much clearer than it had been in the past.

I still don’t wear much makeup. If I can get eyeshadow (very subtle) and mascara on, I am in good shape. That’s about 3 times a week. But I am good to my skin care regimen. It it seems to be good for me.

I wonder if this means I am vain?
