Skin Confidence

Last night I finally did a face mask, which I really should do more often. I have incredibly dry skin, and my makeup definitely doesn't help with all the chemicals in it. So I've been on a skin kick so to say, trying to take better care of what I put on my face. And I think it's been making a difference, I got a compliment the other week so that was rad (but maybe that was thanks to my new BB cream...). It's a slow process, and can sometimes be really disappointing when I take my makeup off at night and see all my red bumps. So I decided to go green--literally! Get it? Cheesy...also, my boo and I were watching this documentary on Mermaids, so the green skin craving was partially thanks to that (ridiculous, I know, but some part of me wanted to believe that Ariel existed for a second).

Also, fair warning, I don't really like taking "serious" pictures...so here's my mask face during and after and today: 


It dries rock solid so it feels really weird to do this:



Hey no red splotches!! 



Today, with just a little bit of makeup/BB cream. I was feeling the new skin! (Had to use a B&W filter to get rid of my red-eye--I hate when that happens)

(the most serious pose you will get from me)

Here's the mask I use. It's really old, and I think from Target? You can get it online HERE for cheap. 



Every once in a while I can convince my boo to do a mask with me, but obviously he doesn't want any photographic evidence. It's pretty cute though! 

I'm going to try to use it once a week, but I'll keep you updated on how that actually plays out. I'd suggest doing a mask with me. It's more fun together! Plus we can pretend to be mermaids, yeah? No that's super dorky, you say? Well alright then...
