Zoom teeth whitening

Wow, I just got the Zoom teeth whitening done. The process took about an hour and a half. The procedure is broken down into four 15 min sessions. There is a huge improvement in my teeth. I would say that my teeth is three shades whiter than what they were. What I wasn't excited about is the transient pain that I have right now. It's like the feeling of someone pulling my teeth out. Ouch!! The dentist said it was going to last 24 hours..yikes. I will post up pictures of my teeth when I have a chance! Image does not belong to me

new favorite! NARS blush

Ok! I know this blush has been raved on by many people for a long time now. I was reluctant to try because I have sensitive skin and has always been loyal to my bare mineral. I couldn't resist though so I went out and bought the color Deep Throat (sounds so naughty just saying it). I have to say, I absolutely LOVE the color. It really compliment my skin tone. I think it's one of those colors that would compliment a lot of skin tones though. Anyways, it glides on smoothly, and has the right amount of pigment. It also lasted throughout the day, which is a plus! For those of you who haven't given this a try, I really believe you are gonna love it as much as I do! P.S I have breakouts, but its not because of this product. I'm working on that, so check out my blog on acne. Have a blessed day everyone! Photo belong to source

My quest to fight acne

Hi everyone! This is my very first post here. I'm brand new to Luuux and I am not sure what I'm doing yet. I like to tell you a bit about myself. I'm 31 years old and I am battling chronic acne! I have tried many OTC products, creams, ointments, oral contraceptives. Nothing seem to work. I don't know if its because I'm unique or that I'm not vigilant enough in my skincare routine. For those of you who are struggling with acne, I'm sure you know how upset this can be. Recently, I began working for a cosmetic surgeon. I told him about my problem. After reviewing the products I've tried, he urge me to give Obagi a spin. I am very excited to talk to you about this Obagi system that I'm trying out. Its a three step system consisting of a cleanser, pore therapy, and hydrating lotion. I have very high hopes for this system being that the surgeon said he had many positive results with his clients. After trying out the system for a week..I noticed that my skin is flaky and other pimples have also come up on the surface. I told the surgeon about this and he said that this is part of the process and to be patient. He also included retin A in the regimen, saying it will help exfoliate my skin. I have tried retin A in the past but didn't see a significant improvement as far as acne goes. He told me that the key in improving my skin this time around is that I have to know that these regimen chemically exfoliate my skin, in order for me not to get new pimples, I would have to help my skin by mechanically exfoliating it as well (i.e getting a facial). He said that because salicylic acid and tretinoin (retin-A) only exfoliate chemically, if I don't assist in mechanically exfoliating it, the dead skin will remain on the surface and re-clog my pores. So far, the areas where I'm not breaking out, I do see that my pores are smaller and that my skin in those areas are more radiant. I would have to use to system a bit longer to be able to judge it's effectiveness. I will keep you posted!!!
