Work and no rest makes a woman look old

I so totally understand how insufficient sleep and work stress can make a woman look 5 years older!

I have been swamped with a sudden flood of projects since two weeks ago, such that I’m basically living a life of a night owl now, haha! When I have to juggle between work (that brings in money) and the daily chores of a housewife (that I’m not paid for), I started to slack in my personal beauty care. :(

It’s horrible to see what I saw in the mirror yesterday - a dull, haggard face, with noticeable open-pores and greasy appearance. Ouch!

I definitely need to do something to salvage this disaster. So what I did last night was:

  • Put on a cheap but lovely facial sheet mask from Watson Taiwan that has hydrating and firming effects (while watching The Desperate Housewives, hehe).
  • Switched off the laptop and went to bed before midnight.

This morning I woke up and looked so, so much better. The pores appeared smaller, the skin felt tighter and look brighter. I’ve earned back the 5 years I’d lost, hahaha! :)
