This is the end of week 4 of the 10 week series for the ASK Cosmetics’ “Ultimate Bare Naked Nail Challenge”. For information about why I started this and details of my nail conditions check out my “The Start” post.
I’ve been pretty sick for the last week and a half so I missed my week 3 post – all the posts that have been showing up (up to this one) were actually scheduled because I had a big spurt of energy two weeks ago. Anyway I’ll stay on schedule for the rest of the challenge (I hope). I think that some of my problems that I’ll be talking about are due to being sick – maybe Lisa will comment and let me know. Check out below the break for my full update!
Apricots, today we will discuss apricots – or at least something that smells like them. I opened the little sample of the Ren Glycolactic tube and was hit with the scent of mashed apricots – it was amazing. The directions indicate you should apply it to clean dry skin, wait 10 minutes and then rub your face upwards to “lift” the dead skin that it has loosened, and then to wash it off with a damp cloth. Lots of people love this product and it is supposed to be good for people who have sensitive skin. I tried it. I felt some tingling, but no more than when I use my black soap. When I took it off my face was a touch red, just like it normally is after I’ve rubbed something off – the thing is, this red did not go away for over 12 hours. That is not normal, and that is not the typical results I have heard of from others who have used it. I think there must be something that my skin just didn’t like about this product.
