October 18th...sad day

October 18th is my sister's birthday.  She passed away Feb 1997 when I was pregnant with my 13 year old.  She was 33 years old leaving me as the only child of my parents. 

I still think of her often and get angry at her for leaving me.  She contacted HIV from drugs.

I would post of picture of her but just so not have one scanned. 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KELLY.  One day in heaven, We will meet again.

So sad; I'm so sorry you lost your sister.

On a trivial note -- couldn't respond to your question by email -- so had to come here.

I use a variety of products. I clean my face with Obagi's foaming gel and Glo Therapeutic's gel cleanser that has salicytic acid in it, using the Clarisonic brush.

I also use a variety of masks that purify and exfoliate. Bliss makes one as does Clinique.

After washing I use Obagi's Ectoderm Forte, a moisturizer with glycolic acid and then Jan Marini's AntiOxidant which helps encourage healthy skin growth and has an SPF of 30. Obagi and Marini products are available through doctors' offices.

I began this regime years ago with Olay's products, all of which are excellent, particularly the Olay Definitiy, deep penetrating, foaming moisturizer.

The most important thing, though, is that I protect my face from the sun and try to undo all the damage I did as a young and foolish sun worshiper! I also see an aesthetician regularly for advice and facials.

I think my email is available at my blog site if you have any questions. Kathy
