Out with the Old!

If you know me, you probably know that I herniated a disk in my back in November. Needless to say at times the pain has turned me into somewhat of a beast. I've been pushing thru the pain while bathing in Tigerbalm & Biofreeze- I know sexy! But my girls need me, so at the end of a long day of making my clients more beautiful, I must admit that when I get home the last thing on my mind is my own beautification- so it has fallen by the way side. You know it's bad when the idea of a pedicure brings not joy to mind, but pain. So I decided I needed some revitalization & had myself a Revitalize Peel by Skin Medica performed by my partner in crime (& fellow esthetician) Dawn. Let me preface this by saying I am the queen of exfoliation. I worship at the alter of AHAs & my assistant, Tabby, has probably wanted to stab me on more than one occasion as I have explained how the skin is like an onion to my clients. What I'm saying is, is that I know what sloughing of dead skin cells entails. Well, we passed sloughing a while ago & I have morphed into a snake shedding its entire skin. As in "I apologize that my chin just fell off & into your coffee." So while I'm not exactly a vision at the moment, I realize that I'm a work in progress. Hey- out with the old and in with the new! (skin that is.) Peace. Love. Lipgloss. M
