Remedy: Dry Feet

June 28, 2009 · 2 Comments

My friend’s feet became severely dry, from walking in slippers and who knows what else … So, I gave her some advice on what I did before and voila! She’s been doing it once a week and it’s working! So, I wanted to share it with you guys. Now, girls (and boys), I know we all detest having ugly, oogly, dry, flaky feet … Some use baby oil, some use all kinds of feet products, others use those pumice stones in the shower, but let me tell YOU the answer is VASELINE. Huh? That’s probably what you’re thinking … it’s a 3 step process:

  1. Vaseline, it’s like this jelly goo, it might feel some what discomforting applying it onto your feet, BUT, “just do it” – and chunk it on!
  2. Grab a pair of sock, nicely and neatly cover both feet with the vaseline applied
  3. Go to bed and wake up the next morning with smoother and healthier feet. 

This is proven to work! So, try it, it doesn’t hurt to try … and the vaseline, you can get that anywhere at a local drugstore. I hope that helps …

BB Cream: Foundation Trend

May 31, 2009 · Leave a Comment

I finally got one, about 2 hours ago. Plus, I got this cute floral black mirror! “YEY

Honestly, I’m not big on makeup, my procedure is very simple. 

  1. Wash face
  2. Skin toner and lotion (day and night lotions are separate)
  3. Eye and then face sunblock lotion
  4. Contacts
  5. Blush
  6. Mascara, non-school days :)

I can’t live without my blush. I love how a dab of pink cheeks can really boost your look making you feel feminine, girly. And finding a right foundation has been a journey, so I stopped. But, my roommate has a BB Cream and over the weekend I was over a friends house and tested her BB Cream and then voila! I fell in love. The cream is light and you apply it by spreading it all over your face evenly and your face will look flawless and even have a little glow … Not literally, but there is a difference… “you’ll grow a real liking for the results”   

Its real trendy in Korea and it’s real popular with celebrities, and according to my friend,

It’s what Miss Korea uses, don’t you know? It works, Miss Korea uses it!” 

So after trying, I was sold and pretty much set on buying my own. I’m excited! This one below is my first BB Cream, it hasn’t disappointed me yet, so far so good.

$48. Brightening Blemishing Balm SPF30. From Korea. You can get yours here ...

Basically …

BB stands for Blemish Balm, dermatologists and surgeons first used it as a soothing treatment balm for patients who went through laser skin treatment. The creams purpose is to help protect and regenerate delicate skin. They are great at proving a coverage, that’s not too heavy or light but, perfect. BB Creams are close to perfect, they provide excellent coverage and help provide an even skin tone. Oh, I think men too can use these creams for coverage. Nowadays, it’s no big deal, we all want to look good when we go out and make ourselves presentable .  So

Have any of you tried?

Which one is the best?
