Their products are super-gentle but thorough. Start with "Precleanse," followed by "Daily Mircrofoliant," and don't forget to moisturize with "Active Moist." They also have a bunch of products for spot treating.. Like Ladybugsmom suggested, it never hurts to see an esthetician; every 4 - 6 weeks for a couple of months to get your skin back in shape. They can offer the best advise for ongoing beautiful, healthy skin. A lot of Dermatologists offer in-house aesthetic services, so if need be, a derma-doc is only steps away. Good luck!

thank you , I'm trying a new morning wash. hopefully that helps and some night creme, I hope I don't scare anyone at night lol

Thanks Ladies. Sometimes I just need to hear someone reassure me. He's only been gone from me for 9 monthes and some days it's just really really difficult. Car stuff was our thing together. He taught me how to drive and work on cars. He bought my first camaro and test drove my second. We went to shows together and hunted parts for his El Camino together. It was just our special thing between the two of us.

Happy Friday Ladies! It is a beautiful day here in WV/MD.

Missing loved ones is a hard thing. We just have to try to hang on to & cherish the good memories & not allow ourselves to dwell on the sadness too much. Good thing we have a big car show this weekend to distract us! Hope to see ya there!

Both my parents are gone. There are times when I think my dad would know how to do that or how did my mom make a certain meal. My dad is gone over three years and my mom over two years. Occasionally I still have dreams about and I think I still get a little help from them.

I'll answer for Maggie - she's probably at work... She and her hubby, Gary (with envy) don't live too far from me, so I can confirm YES, that is the view. And it only gets better.... here's a pic Gary posted a while back, taken from the driveway. Us Pacific Northwesterners never get tired of looking at Mount Rainier...

We may have a lot of overcast, drizzly days, but even one sunny day when the mountain is out makes up for it. Plus, without the rain, we wouldn't be the Evergreen State. I'm less than an hour from mountains, the Puget Sound, or the city. Less than 2 hours from the desert on the east side of the mountains, or the rain forest in the Olympic mountains, and less than 3 hours from ocean beaches. I live in the perfect place, as far as I'm concerned If you ever do decide to move up, I'd be happy to show you around, and introduce you to our wonderful PNW Camaro family

Here's a sunrise picture I took in January, at a little airport about 2 miles from my house:

AHHH! I feel like I've missed SO much! Time to catch up...

Word! Thus why I prefer to take pics with my own car. No hoochy models allowed! hot guys though... totally acceptable of course.

Lush Cosmetics!! They're all natural products and I love their skincare stuff. They have some standalone stores in the US and then some in Macy's stores. A lot of people with skin issues recommended Lush and I've been using it for years. www.lushusa.com

She didnt even acknowledge my show trophy. I love my mom but lesson learned... dont call her about car stuff.

Winning this stuff is kinda bittersweet anyway. I really wish it was my daddy I could have called. Sucks winning something and the one person you wish you could tell you cant.

:( My daddy is the most important man in my life. IDK what I'll do when I can't call him to tell him exciting news, or for a pep talk, or whatever. Sounds like something my mom would do too. But I'm sure he's SUPER proud of you and so are we!


And a big welcome to Dragon!

And Sarah!! Single lady on the prowl... get it girl!

Very close. We discovered the place while on a cruise one day and just had to take a pic. The one Ladybugsmom posted was taken just down the street. Thanks LBM for helping me out there

Dinner and dishes are done, vacuuming gets left for the housekeeper

Wench! I'm trying to catch up...A buddy had me hiking up Mt Peak this week.

My Dad will be gone 21 years this June. There are still days that I see something, or smell a cigar that I think of him. I took me years not to look for him in the dining room window when driving up to the house. He was an amazing man! They are always there with a guiding hand.

Happy Friday Ladies, be safe and drive happy!
