It seems to be pointing to the right targets now that i've closed out and reopened.

Or maybe I cussed it juuuust right.

yep, it was probably the cussing.

sometimes the ledge locks up my whole browser, which pisses me off, because i have to close all the tabs i have open. it never happens when i'm on a PC, only when i'm on my ibook. cussing is the only thing that makes it not happen until the next time it happens.

^^^ Glad you like it! I love Oil of Olay night cream too - the one w/ salycilic acid.

I also use Oil of Olay Ribbons bodywash. Not all the time, but it's convenient after I've been exercising, and it's my 2nd shower of the day. No need to use lotion after getting out of the shower. And it smells divine.

Okay, mine's really simple, but it leaves skin radiant.
Wash face with Dove white bar (with your hands or very plush washcloth), tone with Dickinson's pure witch hazel (does not strip face, leaves it soft), moisturize with Neutrogena Oil Free Moisture (it gives your face the moisture it needs without leaving it coated in a greasy mess...soaks right in!)

If you still need more moisture than the oil-free stuff, I would recommend using a serum before moisturizing. During the harsh Chicago winter, I use Mineral Care's Essential Serum with Green Tea (about $19.00 at Target). WONDERFUL STUFF!!!!

Body wash: Bath & Body Works Japanese Cherry Blossom...divine!!!!!

It is soooooo sensual and feels great. The whole shower room smells great when the steam rises! Moisturize after shower with Japanese Cherry Blossom body lotion...non-greasy, sinks in.

Oh, I almost forgot! Face exfoliation: Just add a small amount of sugar from your kitchen to your favorite cleanser when you wash. Use gentle circular motion, rinse, pat dry, tone, mosturize. Only exfoliate once or twice a week to avoid over-production of facial oils.

Cheers!

Great tips! I was actually going to ask about the exfoliating, if you can do it too much. Twice a week is good to hear. And I think it's the cold that's really screwing with my skin this year. Of course, it's always cold & snowy in Buffalo, but never quite this cold - or this windy.

'Cause you do live in a place with harsh winters (like me), remember to only use luke-warm water to wash your face, not too hot (tiny capillaries can rupture if the water is too hot). It is also a good idea to add a bit of warm water to your lotion to help it soak into your face.

Tip: Thinking of a naked Lindsey Bucky while moisturizing can help bring a rosy flush to your cheeks!!

At least it does for me, 'cause I love him!!

Enjoy!

I exfoliate every day - but I use an extra gentle one - Clean & Clear - it's got vitamins and ginseng in it - it's good stuff!
