There is a kind of beauty in imperfection!
I learned how to embrace the changes my face goes through. All I can do is enjoy, smile and know that my face isn't always going to look flawless or perfect.

My 3 Favorite Products - two under $20 one at $50.
It's nice to walk into Nordstroms, Bloomingdales or just your neighborhood Spa and be shown the latest wrinkle cream but when you ask what product helps with the clearing of hyperpigmentation they tend to stumble a bit and show you a bleaching/correcting cream that costs nearly the $100 range or a bit over.
Do not get me wrong. I have learned a lot from the ladies at the counter of Clinique and Estee Lauder; but from trial and error, these are my top 3 current favorite products. I used them as my daily routine.
Rule #1, never sleep with make up on. I use Neutrogena's Visible Even Foaming Cleanser. $14 aprox. It has little beads that feel like you really scrub the make up off.
My most powerful tool in the tool box - Garnier's Skin Renew. $12 aprox. This product minimized the color of my dark spots. I apply this only at night. In a period of 2-3 weeks I really noticed a difference. Please note I have purchased expensive products with promised results but I haven't been WOW'd like this before... and look at the price!
Once a week I use Mary Kay's Time Wise Microdermabrasion. YES, no more trips to the spa for this $120 treatment! I can do it at home and for the price of aprox $50 (which lasts aproximately 6 months). The beads in this product are strong enough to renew surface skin and not harsh to make it red or break out.
If you find yourself picking up any of these products, let me know how you like them. I'd like to hear your results.
