Who spoils you?
Who is going to spoil you?
Have you ever been spoiled by someone who doted on you, lavished attention along with delightful gifts upon you?
If you have not had this, would you accept it or, if offered would you even deign to want it?
The answer to all of these is ~ YES!
The one who spoils me as is the only one who knows my tastes most intimately, the desires of my heart. The one who knows what I like, how I like it, when I would want it, for how long I would want it?
My secret lover. Shhh!
(just playing)
The truth is,
It's..............
It's best for me to take care of myself. So - I - do.
Recently, after getting a bonus from work in a very tidy sum, I jumped on the Omnilux Contour wagon. It's a nice ride.
Skin care, healthy practices. Lotions, serums, meditation music to calm the mind, soothe the soul. Yes. I'm a firm believer that taking care of myself, mind, body, spirit in each infinitesimal facet is very important.
Most of what I do is low cost with a huge impact. In place of pricey facial cleansers? I use honey.
Yep.
Honey is an all natural, antibacterial cleanser with nutrient for the skin without robbing it of crucial natural oils in the skin. It's been used for thousands of years. It can also be used to wash the hair. I use a sulfate free shampoo on my baby fine hair, with a honey wash every 3rd or so shampoo.
In place of pricey exfoliators?
Table sugar.
The meat, particularly beef & pork, that is served in many Asian restaurants that is so buttery soft? It's softened with sugar.
If you want a super duper facial combined with exfoliation?
In the shower or the bath, squeeze some honey into the palm of your hand, sprinkle some table sugar on it, lightly massage your face with the honey & table sugar mixture.
I keep a jar of honey in reach of my shower, next to that is a sealable container of table sugar.
FYI for you little sugar monsters - sugar does the same thing to your inner organs.
Sorry to deliver that news. Not sorry.
Table sugar, used in the shower is like getting a massage in a medi -spa.
It does its job, then *poof*, it's gone.
Honey & table sugar quickly dissolve, then, wash down the drain, all natural, no residue.
Back to the Omnilux Contour. Every skin care maven, every beauty blogger is chattering about it. There is a soft bendable LED mask for the face, one for the neck & décolleté.
Heck!
There's even a separate one for the hands!
I have to give the caveat, it's pricey! I did save $50. per item with a coupon code. Thank you, Kim!
As most ladies & some guys know, the backs of the hands are just as important to take care of as the face, neck, décolleté (chest area for guys as in male people, since all people are getting lumped together regardless of gender). As important as preserving the health of the body, health of the spirit.
By choice, I'm all I have, so, it's important to me to take care of me.
The Omnilux Contour is so popular right now that they are all on backorder. I received my work bonus, I ordered it on April 20, 2021. It was delivered on May 11.
PEEPS!
I was so excited!
I was also exhausted from pulling an all nighter with work. Determined to stay awake, I sat up, following the progress of the UPS truck. Meeting the driver ASAP. Out on the street.
The excitement gave me enough adrenaline to go to the gym for a quick workout. Then, I came home to crash in bed after brushing my teeth & nightly skin care, of course. 😍
The next day, I used it for the first time. I was hooked! The mask is really comfortable, super easy to use.
Connect to charger, let it charge, put it on with the Velcro straps.
(This seemed like a fitting drag & drop. Thank you, your highness!)
It goes through a 10 minute cycle, on auto turn off. Fudging a little is okay, riiiiight? I went for another cycle, or two. 😈
Today is May 19. Not only do I see a difference, someone I saw who I haven't seen in awhile noticed the difference, too. I worked for several years to get my skin so healthy that I didn't need to wear foundation or concealment cream. Now? My skin looks even better. The person asked me if I had started wearing makeup to the gym.
Ha ha. Nope.
Before I became a convert, I spent a lot of fun in the sun. Going to the beach, doing some shake & bake.
Now?
I'm a convert to sunscreen. 50 SPF baby!
There were 3 sun damaged spots on my face ~ gone! Like they were never there. A little melasma from prego hormones ~ gone, too. From my experience. It's not Mickey D's, I sure am loving it.
Of course, inner beauty is of utmost importance. Being kind, being happy, treating others with courtesy, with compassion. Still, looking in the mirror, seeing nicer skin? It's very suh-weet.
