I have had my ins and outs with the world of beauty secrets. I have tried fancy and expensive make ups, shampoos, face washes and lotions. But really, nothing seemed to give the results that they claimed. My hair is still thin and flat, my skin is still lily white and blotchy and my make up looks far from Hollywood glam. But, the two "secrets" that I have always sworn by are 1) plenty of sleep and 2) washing off my make up before bed every night.
But lately, probably when I need these "beauty secrets" most, I have been slacking (not on the plenty of sleep...I'll never give that one up no matter how much my husband teases me).
In my 20+ years of wearing makeup, I have probably gone only about 10 days without washing it off before going to bed (I think I was told by a Mary Kay lady when I was a teenager that sleeping in makeup ages your skin 10 times faster or something). Well, this past year, right as I am hovering over my mid-thirties *gulp* I have gone to bed probably 1/4 of the nights WITH MY MAKEUP ON!! What is happening to me?! Does this mean that by this time next year I will look like I'm in my mid....forties?! Looks like I've gotta get back on track...

Oh girl I don't wash my makeup off. Call me bad. But for one I hardly ever wear face make up and when I do, I do wash that off...but my mascara stays on. Jenika always laughed at me for this, but I hate washing my face at night. I do it every morning...what's the difference between 8 hours later??? Yep, just outed myself.
I like the picture of you and Jordan, you don't look a day over 21 :0) That would make me a few years younger too.
That Mary Kay consultant struck fear in me, too--I still remember her counsel and have NEVER gone to bed without taking off my make-up :) But I'm pretty sure my lack of sleep has aged me more than make-up could have--so you've probably chosen the more important of the two to keep up!!
