Well, it's been a long time since I've doled out any loving. I have of late settled into a nice quiet routine, and nothing has given me a quantum leap in my quality of life, until now.
What I Love: Smashbox Sheer Focus Tinted Moisturizer ($30 USD 1.7 fl oz)
Why I Love It: Yes, I'm not a make-up girl. I still don't really know how to apply mascara without it looking goopy. Which is precisely why I like this product. It actually feels like moisturizer, that happens to have a sheer tint to it. It also has SPF 15 and anti-oxidants, which I need and you need, too, because, let's face it, we're getting old.
You may wonder what this is doing on my mommy blog. What does this have to do with parenting? It's because I don't get nearly enough sleep any more (guess why), and I can no longer roll out of bed looking decent to the world. And I am a better role model to my kids if I feel good. (Follow my train of thought here, we're almost at the destination.) And when I look better, I feel better.
Hey before I got fat(ter) and had fewer gray hairs and got at least six hours of sleep a night, I only needed moisturizer and lip balm before I left the house. Now I need just that little bit of help to make my skin tone even and lessen the under-eye circles. But I still hate that cakey feeling of foundation. So there you have it. This is the product for you if you hate wearing make-up as much as I do.

Funny you should have this entry. I just recently asked two of my girlfriends for make-up lessons. Not heavy make-up, just a "picker-upper" for those days that I scare even myself!
Thanks for the suggestion...I'll check this out. What's the active (sunblock) ingredient, by the way?
