And when it gets real heavy, and you start getting stroppy

He broke my little bottle of

Food deserts, I imagine.

Nobody should care if he used to be a landscaper. It’s not relevant. His age is absolutely relevant though. He’s far too young to have the wisdom and experience to handle this job properly. How is he going to know which experts to bring in and who to listen to? He’s grossly unqualified.

And it’s too early for that dress.

It’s what I use in a pinch, and actually it’s great for removing mineral sunscreen, but I find it’s harder to wash off than other oil cleansers.

I mean, I’m not enduring anything. I think of it as general upkeep, not too dissimilar to flossing or working out. It keeps my skin healthy and young and unless I’m really busy or in a rush, I don’t mind doing it.

Specifically: I’m 43 years old and nobody ever believes me about that. Most people put me in me early thirties (last year someone guessed late twenties and I thought she was just trying to flatter me but she was dead serious!). My skin doesn’t show my age. I have some fine lines but no deep wrinkles, my skintone is even and the few sunspots I had have faded, and my skin has a healthy glow.

I’ve always looked youthful but now my skin looks younger and healthier than it did 5 years ago.

Yup! Eye makeup (especially liner & mascara) is made to stay where you put it, so it takes time to remove! And similar with mineral sunscreen.

It’s not necessarily complicated, just tedious. Lots of steps. If I wear mineral sunscreen plus makeup, then my evening routine is:

• Remove eye makeup (cold cream): 2 minutes
• Remove face/neck makeup and sunscreen (oil-based cleanser): 5 minutes
• Wash face, neck, and chest (gentle cleanser): 1 minute
• Skincare for face, neck, and chest (3 toners, 1 serum, 1 moisturizer, lip mask; allowing minimum 60 second drydown in between steps): 8 minutes
• (Every other night) Anti-aging (sandwiching tretinoin with rich moisturizer): 6 minutes

So roughly 15-20 minutes every night just for skin.

Plus about 10 minutes in the morning for my most basic AM skincare (not including sunscreen or makeup).

But my skin looks great!

Yeah, any product claiming that is a product I don’t buy.

Cold cream is the only thing I’ve found that really will remove all of my makeup, and it still requires patiently rubbing it into my eye makeup and wiping carefully (especially the eyelashes!) several times to be sure it’s fully gone. And then comes cleanser and the rest of my skincare.
