Back in August I started seeing an esthetician for my face. She gives medical grade facials which include a glycolic peel which stings for about 10 minutes. It's supposed to basically resurface my face, and leave me with new, baby soft skin and new skin cells that I can go out into the world with for 6 weeks and damage all over again. I like going. It's my Happy Hour. I like to make her laugh with inappropriate jokes and absurd things. Gossip. It's perfect.
Back in October, right after my birthday though, she put her glasses on, got real close and was like "Kerry, are you tanning your face?".....I meekly answered no...but she obviously knew I was fibbing. It's like when you go to the dentist and they ask if you floss every day and you say pretty much...but really what you mean is I've been flossing every day since 5 days ago, knowing you were going ask me that! So anyway, I guess my face started becoming discolored....so she asked me (read:demanded) I stop. So, I did. And each week tanning became less of a concern for me....but then, I noticed I was wearing twice as much makeup to makeup for my less than summer glow. When I went back to see her right before Christmas she was very please, and said my face isn't splotchy or discolored anymore, but I told her my concern...more makeup! Alan likes me makeup less, but lets be honest, going out at night without makeup on, unless you are a Victoria Secret model can make you look A. Lazy and frumpy or B. like you've given up. Although you could put a C in there and just be super confident that you look amazing with 0 makeup on. All those things I am/have not. So, with hesitation, but also with determination to not want to tan in a tanning bed ever again...I went out and bought some Jergens Healthy Complexion self tanner! I friggin love it. It makes my skin soft, it makes me look like I have a glow, and the best part, is I don't have to wear as much makeup anymore!
I also, totally bought it cause in 2 days I'm going to Vegas.......YAY!
