you know those girls who have such flawless skin, it seems almost translucent? yeah i'm not one of them. but every time i ask them what their secret is, they give me the "oh i just wash with water, don't wear makeup too often, blah blah blah" routine. so i've decided to try it out.

right now i'm only washing my face with water and using kiss my face's face factor sunblock.

then i apply a little aveda foundation, only on the areas that really scream for it. after that i put on some mascara (that is something i can't compromise on), a little lip gloss (nars in baby doll), eh voila.

of course if i have to go somewhere special, then yes, i will bring my inner product sluttiness back out in full force. but for the day to day, i'm trying to keep it simple. not sure how long this is going to last, but so far i like that i don't have to spend a lot of time getting ready in the morning. plus, no one's run screaming from me yet, so i guess i'm not looking truly hideous.

Everyone I have ever asked with that awesome skin you are mentioning says that same crap, none of them have ever listed the 10 jar regimes I have tried, and still didn't get. Gotta be born with that. Must be.
Sucks. LOL.
