Oh yes, maybe I’ll be the first on in Sweden with this phone. I ordered it yesterday and they told me that it’s not even out on the market! So I’m super excited about getting it, next week or the week after.

Don’t use a harsh alcohol-based toner or toothpaste to tame blemishes. Stripping the skin of moisture will send oil glands into overdrive and may worsen your condition. Likewise, a dab of toothpaste on problem spots will do more harm than good: The menthol it contains can cause itching and inflammation, resulting in further acne flare-ups.

Do use an appropriate topical treatment on a blemish right away. One that contains lactic acid is best for cysts—hard, painful bumps that appear under the skin and can last for weeks—while a salicylic acid or benzyl peroxide formula is ideal for minor to moderate breakouts.

I can tell you that it all depends on how I feel. I can’t care less about how other people might see me without makeup. When I can walk around without makeup I think that I should. But I mean, sometimes I just want to feel a little bit more comfortable in my skin, so I put some makeup on so I can shine :).

Skål! It’s almost weekend.

Don’t apply too many face products at once, no matter how eager you are to try them out. “Using too many products can irritate the skin,” says Jeanine Downie, MD, a dermatologist in New York City.

Do nourish your skin with a nutrient-packed moisturizer—in other words, rather than use a bunch of different formulas, find a multitasking hero product that takes care of your needs in one go. Look for one that contains vitamin C, to even skin tone and minimize blotchiness, and potent antiagers like retinoic acid and niacinamide.

Wow. I didn’t realize how much money I spend on buying coffee and cafe latte. It’s bizarre! Really. A latte cost at least $2, and if I buy it 5 days a week, all year. Yepp, you do the math because I don’t even want to. Hehe..

So I’ve decided to either buy a cafe latte machine, drink coffee from the machine at work or stop drinking coffee. Don’t know, but I will soon.

Don’t rely on commercial beauty drinks for glowing skin. “They can provide a hydrating boost, but there aren’t enough vitamins and antioxidants in them to make a visible difference in your skin,” says Carrie Wiatt, RD, whose celebrity clientele includes Jennifer Aniston and Fergie.

Do take anti-inflammatory supplements such as omega-3s, B vitamins, and querecitin, which help prevent acne flare-ups, encourage moisture absorption and retention, and improve blood circulation. If you’re handy with a juicer, you might even try making your own at-home beauty drinks. “Natural juices are enriched with vitamins as well as antioxidants, which increase blood flow, reduce collagen breakdown, improve collagen deposition and production, and help with increasing the overall cell turnover rate of your skin,” says dermatologist Ariel Ostad, MD, who recommends mixing leafy green vegetables like spinach with lemon, ginger, or beets for glowing results.

Yaay, I can upload pictures again :)

As some of you might know, we are doing some major changes in our backyard. So we took some help from a really nice toy. ;)

Today was just as bad as yesterday. I had to call my mom to pick me up at work because I didn’t feel good. This afternoon was spent with A and it was a really long time since we just sat down and talked about everything that was going on.

And that’s not all, I can’t upload pictures! :(
