I just read a friend’s blog and she was talking about how hard it was for her to follow thru with her beauty regime of wash,scrub,mosturizing and toning thingey. Well, all i can say is all us females go thru that lapse period and that it always takes a catastrophe on our face or visible body parts to shame us to doing something about it and gettng back on track with the beauty drill. Me? I’ve been doing the beauty thingey since i was in Primary 6 so its not tough. I just make sure i wash my face with facial wash in the morning n night & slather on some beauty goob @ night before bed. Yup, i don’t brush my teeth before bed but i take care of my face instead..great priority huh..
I used to be a great fan of exorbitant beauty products. My fav is Lancome,SK2 and Body Shop. Lancome’s moturizers goes well with my skin and i don’t have the rash my attack after using it. Body shop Tea tree wash does not strip my skin of moisture and it keps the zits at bay. Plus their Vitamin E moistirizer is also a cheaper alternative to Lancome. And the honey shampoo and conditioner is yummy smelling and good for my hair. SK2, don’t need to say much, their miracle water is truly miraculous (which explains why it costs 90 freaking bucks for one small bottle!)
But, with my current financial situation i have to source for cheaper alternatives to my beauty fix. I still need my Honey Conditioner from body shop but shampoo wise i can use anything from Head and shoulders or VO5 or Neutragena. Body showers i always, and i mean ALWAYS stick with Lux,they are cheap and good and it works! It smells good and it makes me feel and look good, seriously. (gawd i sound like an advert on tv.. )But true wat!
Moisturizers is where ihave a problem. So far i can’t find anything to subsitute for my Body Shop and Lancome. So much so, i resorted to using Nivea Body Mosturizer on my face at night. It keeps my face moisturized but i don’t like the feeling all that much.
But seriously, sometimes i think what’s the point of me going thru all these trouble if no one is gonna look twice my way. It sucks to have a low self esteem like this but external factors doplay a part in pulling it up or further down, and for now mine is going way way down. Dammit!
Maybe i should pay someone to shower me with flattery and praise. hmmm, maybe i should start a website service that caters to flattering woman and praising them in a bit to get them to feel better abit when they’re down… Shallow and dumb idea but if it works then maybe should try ah?
Oh well, for now i’ll work on something that i know i have a flair for, Fashion. And that mean helping my friends pick out an outfit this week! Yups, i know I’m THE Fashion Guru and that is the utmost truth! No money nevermind as long as i can make someone look good i shall feel like ive accomplished something great. I guess its just me, i love to make people feel good and look good. Maybe that explains why i was in the customer service industry for 5years prior to this new career of mine.That and photography are my 2 favourite passions and i shall let NO ONE, No Jerks take it away from me! I do these 2 things all for me! ME! ME!ME!.. Hmph!
