Food for thought #1: skin care up in smoke

I think that when it comes to skin care, there are many women (even men) that are more finicky and consistent with their regimen than I am.  I admit, while clean and healthy skin is a priority of mine, I don't always rush to the closest drugstore or aesthetician for the latest cosmetic fix or facial treatment.

I know that having healthy and youthful skin is important, but in my mind, ageing gracefully without any articifical enhancements and surgeries is also important.  That, and I usually get lazy lol.

I don't spend thousands of dollars on serums and creams, but I do realize and keep in mind the importance of taking care of my skin and doing preventative maintenance.  I do the regular care of cleaning my skin of impurities and making sure that I sleep soundly without any trace of makeup left in my skin. 

I should say that I'm not without days where I'd pass out after a late night of clubbing and had forgotten to wash my face! 

Trust me, lol It's not a pretty sight to wake up in the morning and find your pillow case looking like the shroud of turin and find an ugly, hot mess when you look yourself in the mirror haha.  Racoon eyes are not pretty!  Most nights, I do try to keep myself as regular with my facial regimen as I do about my morning multi-grain breakfast! =)
