Caring For Your Partner's Skincare

As most of the people know that this weekend, I am attending my friend's wedding as one of the bridesmaids and my husband is one of the groomsmen!  So, I figured I would get my husband's skin taken care of by the way of masks, serums, and lotions.  I really want him to look his best for the wedding!

I start explaining how I usually do my skincare routine that I have gotten into, which is multiple masks.  My poor husband was looking at me like I was telling him that first we had to do a peel mask, a clay mask, toning mask, and then a cooling mask.  He was just like "Why do you do all this masking girl?"  I explained that with my oily acne prone skin that my best option was doing at least up to four or five mask tho I don't do that daily but only up to three times a week.

So, we started off with E.L.F. daily face cleaner, warm water, and a soft washcloth.  Then, we moved on to the E.L.F.  exfoliating scrub.  We went on to doing Mary Kay timewise repair revealing radiance facial peel.  I had to warning him that with this mask that he would feel a slight sting and he noticed it right away which made me giggle because I am so use to using that kind of mask.  Then, I showed him Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque that we had to use next. I love the the smell of this mask and how the tingle is after using a good peel mask.  Again, I warned him with this mask, there would be tingling and tightening which he liked thank god!  Queen Helene Mint Julep masque is a staple mask that everyone has to have period especially if you suffer from acne and or oily skin.

By the time we were getting to the third mask, my poor guy was falling asleep and lucky for him, all he had to do next was E.L.F. moisturizing sleeping mask!  After he put that on and went to sleep, I went on to doing Yesto detoxifying charcoal paper mask which I have fallen in love with so much.  I went on to doing NewAgeBeauty retinol under-eye pads since I do have fine lines under my eye sadly.  Before I could finish with the same sleeping mask as my husband, I put on Alluxe collagen serum and Alluxe Retinol serum all over my face and neck.

So, this morning I reminded my husband to wash his face because we both still had on the sleeping masks on from the night before and to wash with a gentle face soap.  We decided to do Tonymoly Strawberry Seed three step nose strips in the morning.  I have to use the Alluxe line freeze serum before we can both use Olay complete all day moisturizer and I will be using E.L.F. Illuminating eye cream afterwards.

After last night's skincare routine, I think my husband understands now what I try to do to keep my skin oil free and acne free for sure now.

Love at Last

Once a upon a time,

I thought I was happy.

I was blinded by what I thought was love but really was obsession from one I thought I could trust.

I gave up everything to be with that dark person for a life I thought was in the light.

Everyday, I slowly felt more and more chain binding me from myself and the light.

I felt my heart slowly starting to disappear to a point that I didn't care about anything anymore.

Then I met you, my knight in shining armour.

We both knew we couldn't be together but we became the closest friends ever.

The first time I got to see your face, I felt something real for the first time.

Everyday no matter what, you somehow made me smile and laugh.

You gave me a shoulder to cry on when I needed it and took care of me when I was sick.

You cared from me so much that in the end I couldn't help but fall in love with you.

You show so much love for me that I knew that I finally met my one true soul mate.

You been there through the rough times and the good times with me.

I truly hope once we get through the rough times that we will have nothing but 

happiness for the rest of our lives and I hope that one day we can have our own little ones

That we can show them how to love and care for others the way you have shown me.

Star

I feel so dark inside.


I want to scream but have no voice left to be heard.



I am being dragged by so many things.


I want to believe there is still good in me.



I keep searching for that ray of hope.


I keep hitting the walls to let someone know to let me out but no one can hear it.



I feel I can't breathe anymore.



I can feel the light slowly fading away from my face.


I begin to close my eyes for the last time when out of the corner of my eye, 



I feel the last tear falling from my eyes.

I finally see what I have been waiting for.






The shining star leading me back home where I belong.

Cut

I am looking at the knife in my hand, 

Wanting to cut myself.

I want to but I don't know if I can.

This emptiness...

I am just tired of feeling the way I do.

I can't get rid of it.

If I cut myself, I will feel something.

Pain is looking better than just emptiness.

Holding the knife in my hand, 

Just wondering what to do next.

Thinking and thinking.

Down

Why does everyone look at me?

Am I so different that they can see through me?

Why does everyone want to put me down?

Do they have nothing better to do than pick on me?

I am finally beginning to understand why everyone thinks I am weird.

I am finally at a place in my life where I am happy with myself and my beliefs.

Others still don't understand themselves.

So they look at me and try to make themselves look better than me.

They should try to take that time to find themselves,

and spend less time putting others down.

I am a strong person that will not let others push me around anymore.

I will remind myself that I am happy the way I am and the way I led my life.

I can get through anything knowing no one but myself can control me.

I will not let anything get in my way of making my dreams come true.

So, my message for everyone out there:

Don't bring others down because you are not happy with yourself or your life.

Instead, go get a damn hobby or go improve your life.

Bringing people down makes you worse than scum!!!

I was pushed around long time ago, but not anymore!!!!

Chains Breaking

Sometime ago, 

I lost my way in my life. 

I traded my wings for that I thought was going to be a happily ever after. 

But instead, 

it was a heavy chain of darkness put on me to keep me from leaving. 

I felt like I was slowly being buried alive. 

I was fading away from the light.

When you came into my life, 

I saw a glimmer of hope. 

I felt like I could be myself with you. 

But when our lips met, 

I finally felt those chains broke and could breathe in life again. 

You made me feel like I could fly again.

I can't imagine life without you anymore. 

I wake up in the morning hoping to see your face. 

When I hear those three little words from your mouth, 

my heart skips a beat.

Broken Heart

Why must you keep reminding me that I once loved you?

It hurts so much to think of the time we were together.

Always remembering the times you hurt me with your words.

Remembering all the fights we had.

You always had to be right.

That's why I had to go.

I left before you could hurt me anymore.

Now, you are trying to make my heart break.

But you are the one with the broken heart.

I am sorry if your heart is hurting but it will heal in time.

It will heal in time.

So, just move on because I have.
