TOM is here. (you ladies know TOM.. that time of month..)
TOM and I do not get along well at all. In fact, he is downright abusive at times, with the bloating and the cramps. TOM is a jerk. He causes me migraines, and loss of sleep.
All joking aside, I feel as if I have been hit by a train. I am SO jealous of those of you who skip through flowery meadows with TOM, while I get to spend 3 days confined to my house in misery. Argh. Every month I say that I am going to do research for the best acne treatments out there, because at almost 37 years old, it is a little embarrassing to look like this.
I have a zit the size of Mars on my chin right now. I also have two other smaller ones on the other side of my chin. Seriously? I feel like I am 12 again. This would be a great feeling under any other circumstance!
I can hear TOM snickering.
I had an easy TOM last month – three days and it was like it wasn’t even there….which usually means I will go through hell this month. As they say, men have their periods too, they just don’t bleed. And I think they have theirs more than once a month!!
Avon has one that I use every day to keep the stuff away, as opposed to dealing with the huge monthly breakouts. It’s called True PoreFection, and it’s active ingredient is salicylic acid (instead of benzoyl peroxide, like in those teeny-bopper formulas that turn my face into a BEET!!). I think it’s great–and affordable–and I put it on everyday under my moisturizer….
