Cleaning Your Face

What's the first step to taking pride in your style?  My answer is.....taking care of your skin.

Many times we focus on our wardrobe and totally forget about our skin.  My rule of thumb is your appearance speaks volumes to first impressions.  Two things I ALWAYS notice about others are their shoes and their skin.  No matter how nice your outfit is, if your shoes are worn out the outfit scores a big ole 0!

Skincare is even more important than shoes (we can always work on getting better shoes overtime).  Do you remember when you hit that dreadful age of puberty?  It seemed like every time there was something going on you would wake up with Mt. Everest on your face.  You would run out to the nearest drugstore to grab Clearasil  or your acne treatment of choice.

As we become adults we seem to make every excuse why we don't take time to clean our skin.  I have many mommy friends and their #1 excuse is they are just too tired.  But, let's really think about.  How long does it take to wash your face at night before bed?  Not even 5 minutes.  It's not only great for removing the makeup you've worn all day, but also cleans your face from all the dirt floating in the air.

I will talk more about taking care of your skin in future post.  This one is to get you thinking about starting a face cleaning routine.  Sometimes, we need that little bug in our ear to get us thinking.
