Hippity Hoppity

Getting ready for Easter weekend, which means packing for a weekend with my in-laws.  Which skincare to bring??

My little chin eruption is back again, I really need to stop resting my chin on my hands because he keeps coming back in the same exact spot.  My pores are looking more obvious to me, I decided it's time to start exfoliating again. I used my AFA gel this morning and it felt fine, but I think I want to try the Retriderm serum soon, hopefully the retinol will give me enough exfoliation but also help with my breakouts.

I flipped my vanity mirror over to the 5x magnification side and noticed just how bad my acne scarring still looks.  For a while it seemed so greatly improved that I was happy, but I think I've platued with just using exfoliation alone.  And I was using Stop the Clock with a Brightening Booster in it, but I think that I now need to incorporate something else to brighten.

So what's next, we have two products for pigmentation, Bolt of Lightening from PRESCRIBEDsolutions and Ascorderm XCP.  I'm leaning towards the Ascorderm because then I'll also get the anti-oxidant protection, but I'm feeling biased towards Bolt of Lightening because PRESCRIBEDsolutions is one of my brands, and I could boost it to get the extra anti-oxidants too...

I should just start with the Retriderm and see how that goes, lol.

I think I may wait until Sunday to start anything though. Visiting the in-laws means well-water for my city slicker skin, I usually end up coming home and breaking out or being ridiculously dry. I actually went so far as to wash with bottled water when I was there, but it's a bit of a hassle and leaves me very open to harassment from the family.  At least if I get a zit they don't tease me.

Is there a good wipe that I could use without water to clean my skin?  I use my daughter's baby wipes a lot to take off my eye make-up, but I don't like the way they make my face feel.  I'm open to any suggestions.

Well, hope that everyone else is getting a taste of Spring like we are with the gorgeous weather here!  Enjoy your weekend!
