My Cheapest Facial Procedure

The skin on our face is considered the most delicate part and I think the most important too. It is where others see our glow and our beauty's physical aspect. It is also where age is first noticeable so taking care of it should be in our daily regimen. Yes, it is not bad to have wrinkles and to show signs of aging but it is also just right for everyone to prevent it.

The most effective way to take care of our face is visiting derm clinics regularly but it is also the most expensive way. In every country where economic situation is on the downside, spending money just to have regular visits to such establishments isn't advisable. Even buying expensive facial products could just be wasting money.

I admit before I use to go to salons and have facial procedures to clean my face but as I have said, it is expensive. So I try to find ways how to clean my face and get rid of those black and white heads but not damaging my skin and at the same time inexpensive. Then one day I had a brilliant idea. Just some gelatin and tracing paper. Yes, you heard me right and I am happy to share it with you guys and gals!

First cut small strips of tracing paper. Cut to size of your chin, cheeks, forehead and nose. Set aside. Use a gelatin in powdered form (me I use Knoxx) and dissolve it in hot water on a plate. Just a small amount will do. Apply some of the dissolve gelatin on your face and cover it with the cut tracing paper. Make sure to cover it before the gelatin hardens on your face. If your done applying and covering then let dry for 15 minutes. The longer drying the better. After drying, slowly peel it off and wash your face with lukewarm water and a facial wash of your choice. If all suds are cleansed, wash face with cold water to close the pores.

That's it. I have been doing this since I was a teenager and it works. It doesn't damage my skin, no black and white heads stuck in the pores. The skin is smooth to touch and it doesn't take too much of my time and money. Very effective. You'll also be amazed that after peeling the tracing paper off your skin, you'll see blackheads sticking on the paper. Try it and you'll see.

Christmas - What it means to me..

I feel the cold breeze, I hear the music of Christmas Carol songs, inside malls people are busy buying gifts, Christmas parties everywhere and kids going from house to house singing at every neighbor's doorstep hoping to be welcomed with a smile with a handful of candies. These are the things that reminds and tells me that its the holidays! And every holiday season I feel excited counting the days till Christmas time. But what does Christmas means to me?

To me it's about the birth of Christ. It's about the arrival of our Savior and the beginning of another new life for everyone of us. Repenting on our sins and looking forward to a happier and moral life. Forgetting about the bad past and thinking of the good things ahead of us with Jesus Christ in our hearts.

It is about giving. It is the time to share with everyone dear to us, our family, relatives and friends. Not just giving and sharing gifts but giving our love and care by spending time with them this holiday season. Frankly, I think its every Christmas season that we have longer vacations and being with our family is the best way to spend it. I don't need to spend a lot on buying gifts for them. I know just being with them is the best gift I could give and just greeting them "Merry Christmas" with a hug can make their hearts smile. I know cause to me, it does and I hope to you too.

Happy Holidays everyone!
