Make your skin glow (via pinterest)

Pinterest is a great way to waste hours of my day on things that never seem to work out the way they are supposed to. My experience with Pinterest is that half of the DIY things fail miserably. That is why whenever I find something that actually works, I will blog about it so you don't have to learn the hard way. Make your skin glow I came across a pin to this blog and thought that surely it couldn't be this easy to rejuvinate my skin. Lo and Behold, after I rinsed my face off, my skin really did look better! It even looked better after I put makeup on! I wish I could do this every day, but it is kind of harsh for sensitive skin. I noticed that I get the best results when I wash it off with dove soap and exfoliate after, then dry my face and apply lotion.

Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs Lotion

Man have I been slacking on this blog! I thought nobody was reading it, but I got a few comments from people asking about it lately. Guess I was wrong! Ok, this blog is a review of Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs lotion. Some of the most common comments I recieve at work are about my even skin tone. Guess what? Not real. Hate to burst your bubble, but this stuff is a stripper's best friend. Yep, body makeup. Until last week, I was just fine using the spray airbrush legs. The only real complaint was that it's pretty cold coming out of the bottle, and sometimes it doesn't blend super well. No big deal. When I spotted this lotion next to the spray, I thought "Oh what the hell, may as well try it out. Maybe it will blend easier." WRONG. First of all, it was darker than the spray kind. I am a pretty pale person, but I like it that way. Not so happy with how dark the "light" color turned out. Second, this stuff is thick, and it's pretty hard to blend it evenly. It dries way too fast to really get it looking smooth. I actually had to go over it with the spray, because it looked all spotty and streaky. It gets two thumbs down. I'll stick with the spray Airbrush Legs.
