Skin care: Obagi Nu-Derm System


Start date: 4/19/12
purchased from: premier health and wellness spa in Hallandale, Fl
Duration of treatment: 18 weeks
Goals: reduce hyper pigmentation, regulate acne, even skin tone

Description: Obagi Medical Skin Care has one simple reason why everyone falls in love with Obagi because it works and it works fast. Its wide variety of prescription strength skin care products repair your skin at the cellular level, which means wrinkles, sagging skin, hyperpigmentation, and acne do not stand a chance

I've heard nothing but spectacular reviews about this product line. It claims to completely transform the skin. I hope this will help in my constant battle with hormonal acne and the scars they leave behind. The cost is pretty hefty but considering the amount I spend in COVERING the problem, I might as well put in the effort to FIX it. I'll keep you guys posted with my progress.

Mac Hit the Pavement

Food + drinks + art = fun

Mac held an event at the Wynwood walls in Miami on March 27. The Wynwood walks are a cool place to view graffiti and cutting edge art from various artists. There were plenty of murals and spectacular live art to check out.

Eating vegetarian (well technically pescetarian....but thats another post) gets tricky at these sort of functions but Wynwood Kitchen provided enough Maduros (sweet plantain), shrimp skewers and margaritas to keep this girl happy.

I dug into the depths of my kit and created a look using blue brown pigment and my fave lip combo, up the amp lipstick and ample pink plushglass.

A good time was had by all, check out the pics.

Doesn't it suck when you have to wash off a flawless face of makeup at the end of the night? If I could sleep in it without waking up with a massive zit, I would.
