The Beauty Products Journey
July 28th 2007 10:07
[I have to admit, I love beauty products, like a true addict I always am on the hunt for a new product. I can spend hours and hours walking through aisles at department stores just looking and trying new products. I worked in Pharmacy for a number of years previously where all these wonderful products were readily available for me to trail. Now that I have gone down another career path I am afraid I am having withdrawal symptoms. I have warn so many shoes down just by walking up and down the same aisle in the hope something new and exciting has come out. Even just an ad on TV for a new mascara makes me so excited, like a kid a Christmas time.
The problem though with being such an addict to beauty products is that over the years I have bought so many different items within different price ranges, I have stocked up enough to open a store of hardly used items. Although some items are great, the problem lies with me. I just do not have the discipline to spend every morning cleansing, toning, moisturising, prepping, and putting 20 layers of make-up only to look like that there is not much on anyway. And then more time each night to gentle remove said make-up, exfoliate, cleanse, tone, moisturise and condition etc.
I have believed all the promises to last longer, not rub off, make my skin look beautiful, make me smell so good that men will fall over, the list goes on and on. As I am sure many many of us do! But my wallet and bathroom cupboards cannot handle any more products. So I have decided to curb my addition with advisory therapy.
I shall share my experiences with others so that hopefully we can all handle our addictions together. At least we will know from first hand experience the quality of products from personal experience.
