And then lazy happened....

Not so much with the water marble this weekend. Life took over and it just didn't work out. I had work stuff and boyfriend stuff and well...lazyness to take care of. 
I did, however, purchase a few new beauty products. *yay*  Olay Regenerist Eye Lifting Serum and Aveeno Positively Radiant Tinted Moisturizer w/ SPF. I've hit the age where an eye cream is no longer an option and this particular one gets excellent reviews all over the innernets. We'll see. I've used Aveeno tinted moisturizer before I and really like it. It's great for days where I just want a little light coverage and some SPF. 
So, I wanted to share a little discovery. I'm in the process of loosing a considerable amount of weight. I'm at 40 pounds and going. Being a woman in her 30's, my skin just doesn't have the elasticity it used to. I did some digging about online and started to educating myself on the wonders of sugar scrubs and Co-Q 10 lotion and man, I'm really glad I did. I bought a sugar scrub from Wal-Mart called Tree Hut Shea Sugar Almond and Honey Body Scrub. It's costs around $4 and smells divine. I've been using it every 3 days or so for about a month now and my skin is ever so grateful. My favorite thing so far is how smooth my legs feel after I use this scrub. If I scrub, shave, then scrub again I get literally the closest shave I've ever had. I've been following every shower up with Equate Co-Q 10 Skin Firming lotion. It got decent ratings and I could have purchased a better quality lotion but quite frankly, before I sunk money into anything more expensive I wanted to see if Co-Q 10 was everything it was supposed to be. So far the answer is yes! The skin on my legs is noticeable younger looking and some fairly unsightly scars I had have begun to fade. I've noticed the flabby skin on my arms seems tighter as well. I wouldn't call it a miracle by any means but it's a definite improvement. Here's to hoping I have the same luck with my new face product choices...and that one of these days I'll have a reader.
