How Did I Ever Go Without?

I love to be pampered. I love pedicures, facials and massages. I was introduced to these about 4 years ago when I decided to go esthetician school and get my license. I had always done my own pedicures, but I had never had a professional one. I fell in love. I loved being in school and working, because I had something done about once a week. Then when I got pregnant and moved, I had to quit my job, so I haven't had a nice treatment in about a year and a half. I do like to do different facials and masks at home though, so I am not completely deprived. If you want to pamper yourself at home, try the Neutrogena(R) or Dove(R) facial cleansing cloths. It's an easy way to pamper yourself without spending a lot of money, or taking a lot of time, something us moms are always short of. You can get a Neutrogena(R) or Dove(R) Facial Cleansing Cloth Sample. Click Here

But let me tell you about one of my absolute favorite treatments; the lash and brow tint.
Being a red head, I have super light eyebrows and eyelashes. The first time I had this done on me, I was amazed! I actually had eyebrows without darkening them! And my eyelashes! I could go without mascara and not look sick. I haven't been without mascara since junior high. I never left the house without my mascara. Those of you who have darker lashes and brows don't understand. I seriously looked like I was on my deathbed without mascara. Then I discovered the lash tint. It was great when I went camping, or swimming, because then I didn't have to worry about getting raccoon eyes.

I was planning on having this redone right before I went into the hospital to have my daughter, so when people came to visit I wouldn't look like I had gone through heck. Let me tell you how disappointed I was when I found out that because of the hormones, the tint would not take! I was devastated. So I put on my waterproof mascara before we went to the hospital, and no one knew the difference.

Being a stay at home mom, I don't always find time to get a decent shower, let alone do my makeup everyday. I just had this done again this past weekend, and I had forgotten how wonderful it is. Now when my neighbors stop by, I don't have to hide my face, or when I go to get the mail I don't have to put on my sunglasses, simply because I didn't find time to put on my makeup. I don't know how I did without it. If you are interested in trying this, I'm sure several salons or spas in your area offer this. Just call around and ask. It's fairly inexpensive too.

This stuff is also great for tinting men's hair as well. My husband had dyed his dark brown hair black for an acting gig he had, but his eyebrows and goatee just didn't match. I pulled out my trusty tint and it worked wonderful. Maybe your man has a little bit of gray they want to hide. Or maybe your man is like my hubby and likes the gray. (He actually can't wait to go gray since he loves the salt and pepper look. Oh, and he only turns 30 this year!) If they like the gray, but want a little change, try Touch of Gray - it lets you keep some gray and works gradually. You can get a free box just Click Here
