Seventh heaven...

Yea! I reached the seventh day! Tomorrow I will hopefully have better pictures for you.  If you have any suggestions on how I could make this better for you please do not hesitate to let me know.  My goal is to help other women protect, repair signs of aging, treat acne and begin a regimen (before you need repair) to keep your largest organ.

Morning:

1.    Wash my face
2.    Skin even toner
3.    Lifting serum
4.    Eye lifting cream
5.    Vitamin serum
6.    Lip mask and balm
7.    Day cream with spf 30

Night:

1.    Wash my face
2.    Skin even toner
3.    Lifting serum
4.    Eye lifting cream
5.    Vitamin serum
6.    Night cream with retinol
7.    Eye lash growth serum



and now the photogs for the day...

Tomorrow I will try to have better pictures and I will show a bit of lashes.  I put on mascara today for the first time since this started and they seemed longer to me (wishful thinking).  Since I do not usually wear make-up I am going to try to use what little I do use and see how it looks. I will let you know, maybe even post a pic. Tomorrow (whenever that maybe for you) do something that makes you a tad uncomfortable.  Celebrate life by never being afraid to try something new...let me know what you did!

Starting with week 2 I will be also showing eye lashes, I will have to use mascara to make them not-blonde but I am going to use just plain mascara so that you will just see them not enhance them so we can see if this serum works or not.  Also I am going to use a better camera so that we do not get all this red in it.  I am disclosing this so you will know what is happening, I do not want to be misleading at all.  Have you ever spent time and money on something that was not what it was made out to be?  What was the most ridiculous thing you ever fell for (besides your ex-husband/boyfriend)?  Mine was that white-bean-protein-carbohydrate-blocking capsule!  Please let me know there are other gullible people out there :)

What, I forgot the JOWLS!!!! What kind of word is "jowls"?  Sounds horrible, jowls, jowls...Have you ever wondered how some words came to be and just who decided what the word would be.  Why is a bonnet on a car in the UK but here in the states it is on a head, in and Easter parade?  Who decided that an arm would be called an arm?  Oh well, I guess I will never know.  Smile when you walk down the street and you see someone, you will either make them smile OR make them wonder why you are smiling, is their skirt tucked in their panty hose?  I want to hear your ideas, comment me PLEASE!

Today is Sunday and I do not preach but I want to ask everyone to do a bit of kindness today.  I know you are always (well almost always) kind but do something today that makes someone smile.  When I know I made someone smile it makes it a good day for me.  When I went through bad times seems like one someone taking a second to speak, look or say something could make a difference.  I want to be that difference for someone who may need it.  Have a great day!!

OK, today made me a believer, this is not that hard to do.  Friday I picked up my grandson, he is almost 3 years old, in addition I have a 20 month old staying with me, SOOOOO.... I am in a household with 2 (that is TWO) children under the age of 3! Oh, and did I mention, one is potty training?  So, if I can make time to do this anyone can! But, you know I am over 50, more of my life is behind me than in front of me, therefore I find that I am not in that big of a hurry to get anywhere :) How busy are you?

Do you know what makes you happy?  I was laying in bed thinking about just that last night and I thought of a few things.  My kids, most of the time.  My husband, almost all the time (except when he refuses to argue with me, but then again if he argued with me he would probably make me madder).  But I found that a baby's laugh always makes me happy!  What makes you happy? 

Day One (after regimen)...

OK, let's get started:


First I took the before pictures (I am not unhappy or sad, just trying to keep a blank face).

In the Morning: (takes about 6 minutes)

  1. Wash my face with my product (do not want to name product until I am sure it works, don't want to denounce anyone).
  2. Use my micro-derm abrasion kit, 2 steps.
  3. Use my skin even toner.
  4. Next is my lifting serum.
  5. Then my eye lifting cream.
  6. After that my vitamin serum.
  7. Onto my lips with a mask and balm.
  8. Lastly a day cream with spf.

That is how I started and then comes the night regimen: (about 5 minutes)

  1. Wash my face with my product
  2. Skin even toner
  3. Lifting serum
  4. Eye lifting cream
  5. Vitamin serum
  6. Night cream with Retinol
  7. Eye lash growth serum

Here are the  after first pitch pictures:

I started this last Thursday and have been very faithful.  I do not know if I look any better but my skin does seem softer.  Will I look 18 again?  Probably not, well, definitely not.  Do I want to look 18 again?  DEFINITELY not!  Hmmm, have you ever thought what you would do if you knew then what you know now?  What would you change?  How would that change your life now?  What do you think?
