I’m a Prophet

March 1st, 2010

I know I generally just talk about books and kittens and Zac Efron here, but I would like to talk to you guys about something else. MY BUYING HABITS.

OK, I know that you’re thinking this totally isn’t Mindy Kaling’s blog, but this is totally important.

You guys, I have had crappo skin since I can remember. I got a zit in third grade! That’s not right. As an adult I’m less zitty but I’m shiny like the sun, and I’ve been trying for as long as I can remember to combat this with the right product.

The other week I ventured into Lush to get some hand lotion, and a lovely salesman asked if I wanted anything for my face. He probably asked this because I was shiny and red. I am like a Christmas ornament, not a lady. So I purchased a few items, and turned down the most expensive suggestion. Amazingly, he gave me a giant sample of it so I could try it anyway.

People, I am not kidding when I say that within a couple of days, my skin looked better. Less shiny. Less red. More normal! My sample of moisturizer lasted me nearly two weeks, and of course by then I was happy spending the cash to get the full tub.

So now I’m one of these people who has a skin care regime, and old enough to worry about putting on moisturizer before I go to bed, but next time you see me, I probably won’t resemble a Christmas ornament at all.

If you yourself veer into red shiny territory, here are my new essentials:

    This makes me laugh, because I’ve always had crappy skin and Lush saved mine, too!
