the entry of ecstatic aesthetics

know this: the area within the vicinity of my lips has become a treasure trove of pustular breakouts and whiteheads, creating the illusion of a white moustache all fuckin around. it is times like this that you really appreciate infomercials peddling products like proactiv. any takers on that?

speaking of which, i'm a freaking vain shitez, it's crazy. i am constantly purveying new skincare products that guarantees to be the creme de la creme, as though my already bursting arsenal of products i've procured isn't enough to begin with; i could practically do different permutations of skincare regimes.

this pro-epidermis attitude had me swiping a few items off the counter at the malls today just because they, according to the persuasive salesgirl, were "good for the skin". i racked these up in a matter of exactly under 30 mins (and i'm praying they take even shorter to work their magic):



my new facial routine, clockwise from left: lab series age-less face cream, a daily moisturizer that erases the signs of aging, peter thomas roth glycolic acid hydrating gel, a mild exfoliant to clarify lifeless skin tones, peter thomas roth hyaluronic acid, a must-buy serum that attracts moisture to the skin up to 1000 times its own weight, and ole henriksen lift eye gel for tired, insipid eyes like yours truly.

on other news, i did a little brow-threading at browhaus, and it was a total disaster. the folks decided to administer a perpetually surprised look for me that i'm looking a little k.d.lang-ish, and i totally can't rock the andro look. i am a disgruntled customer, so no pictures of me furtively hiding my face. man, i feel emasculated.

hmmm i reckon the main reason for ur recent outbreak of adverse skin condition is solely due to the protein shakes and supplements u are taking.

solution :

- reduce amt or totally cut off

- increase or double ur fluid intake esp. water

trust me. it will work.
