I'm back-with Terra Chips!

It has been quite a long time since my last post, admittedly, I have been slightly off the radar for the last 2 months, but I am trying to get back into the groove now. And here is where I rave about Terra Chips, one of the drains on my bank account. Terra Chips are soo good, you must run out and get some now if you haven't had them already. I literally buy 3 bags at a time because they are that good, and I don't even like chips.
Terra Chips are vegetable chips and they are yummy delicious. I have noticed that there are several varieties out there that I haven't now so, it is my mission to try every single variety (he he). I saw on their website there is a dollar off coupon so, see link below and go get some!

Tweezers

Why am I talking about tweezers? I realize this must seem dumb, and I too would have probably thought so earlier, but I found these tweezers and they are fantastic. Rubis Tweezers are the best, the best, the best tweezers around. Get rid of whatever tweezers you have (unless it's Rubis) and buy a pair of these. They are fantastically sharp and precise and you will never have a problem using these or pulling out the tiniest splinter.
Had you asked me, pre Rubis discovery, how much I would pay for tweezers, I would have said, 12-15 dollars max. However, now that I have used these, I will gladly fork over the 25 or so that they cost. Seriously, go try them.

Rubis Tweezers

I LOVE this mask. Usually I find that masks don't do anything, except take some time out of my Sunday nights. But this one, this is different. I have now purchased my second jar and highly recommend this to anyone with problematic pores or oily skin. Love it love it love it.

How to clean an iron

So, I got a fancy new iron for Christmas and use it just for crafts (since I don't really iron clothes).  I also like to use stitch witchery sometimes and can be a little lazy about it. 

Turns out I got the iron "dirty." Who knew an iron could get dirty and then result in damaging your fabric, permanently with a stain.  I asked my grandmother about cleaning an iron and she said to just use a wet washcloth and rub it over and over on the washcloth until the stuff comes off the iron-didn't work.

So I am in the store the other day, just standing there waiting on someone searching for something, and I see a man pick up a package off of a thing hanging from the shelf.  Bored and curious I go to see what he bought and what do you know, it is iron cleaner.  This stuff cost like 3.00 or so so I decided to give it a try; it totally works and now I can go back to just screwing things up on my own! yay!

Murad-Skin Perfecting Lotion

Ok, I think I am loving this stuff. I know I wasn't going to post today but wanted to do this before I forgot. I have oily skin, definitely prone to break outs when stressed. I have used so many different moisturizers, clinique, prescriptives, clarins, olay, ponds, ddf, md pericone, christian dior, and who knows what else. but i got a free sample of this at sephora around christmas and it was just enough to give me a try of it.

i went back a couple of weeks ago and got enough of a sample to last a few weeks so i could really give it a try. its been a few weeks now and I love it! it is totally lightweight, not drying at all, moisturizing, but somehow keeps my skin from not being so oily. plus, i think its got all that good skin care aging stuff in it, retinol and aha/bha complex (whatever that is). but i do know about the retinol. so if you have skin like mine and continue to spend years and years looking for a decent moisturizer-here you go-try it out and get a sample.

disclaimer: i dont work for sephora or murad or anyone else to where i might benefit promoting this product.

Every gal should have a sun umbrella

Another post to add 9/13 10:36 am

Good old fashioned pen to paper now-or rather pencil to paper.

So now I'm not only not connected to the internet, but I don't have the computer. So I'll just just a note down.

Every gal should have a sun umbrella. And not just any plain old umbrella will do. It must be an umbrella that says something and not one that says, I just had this in my car for a rainy day. But one that says I thought about what this umbrella says about me AND that it protects me from the sun.

Here was mine for today. I wonder what it says about me?

An accidental finding-Tweezerman

I am starting to feel like with every "mynewtherapy" post I should balance it out with a "Things I love or Craft" post. So, here is another thing that i LOVE. I was perusing the drugstore.com site for who knows what when I saw this little thing advertised on the page that other people had bought. Hmm, let me check this out. Based on the reviews-solely based on the reviews-I purchased this item which first, I didn't know existed, but second, would never have looked for to buy. I have to say, I really do like it and think that it adds a lot to my life. The only thing about it is that I don't really use it for pimples, really just blackheads-as that's mostly my problem. If you want to check it out click here.

Clean and Clear Blotting Sheets-Love them!

Ok, I just remembered how absolutely fantastic these blotting sheets are and feel the need to tell anyone that doesn't already know about these that they need to try them.

I have tried a bunch of different blotting sheets because I have really oily skin. I've used the ones with powder, the ones without, the ones from Japan, cheap ones, expensive ones. And I have found, by far, that these Clean and Clear ones are my absolute favorite. I think it's mostly because of the texture of the sheets. They aren't like all of the other blotting papers where they are like sheets of thin paper. They are more like a very thin latex type sheet and really, they don't smear your make up (if you wear any) and they do a fabulous job at effectively absorbing the oil.

No, I am in no way affiliated with the company that makes these but I wanted everyone to know about it. I hope to post some more random products that I love and want to share with everyone.
