OUT, DAMNED SPOT

I have this freckle age spot that I am really getting tired of looking at. I inquired about doing laser to get rid of it but $2,000 is pure lunacy for a spot the size of a pin head nail head. I considered living with it but that option didn't really take hold either. So I am contemplating using hydroquinone which I absolutely abhor since it is a known, dangerous, (banned in Europe since 2001) skin bleaching agent which has been found to be a potential carcinogen (kidney failure, skin cancer, liver damage) and can also have a reverse effect by causing skin to actually darken instead! So what's a girl to do? I really want that spot gone!! Maybe if I use it only on that one spot, not on my entire face, I'm okay? And what if I order it from Canada where you can get a higher concentration (4% OTC as opposed to 2% OTC here in the U.S.) which means I can use it for less time? What? You're not buying it? Yeah. Maybe me neither.
But just in case.....

FACE IT


So you're buying organic apples and oatmeal for your kids. You're drinking green tea and you've almost given up Diet Coke,, but what about your skin? Going organic with your skin can not only make your skin radiate, it can also be affordable. Aubrey Organics has a range of products for sensitive skin, combination skin, dry skin, oily skin. I personally use the Sea Buckthorn in the summer and the Rosa Mosqueta in the winter but all of them work. And let's face it,, if your skin looks great, you feel great, no matter what bag or shoes you're wearing.
