How old is your skin?

Oh my gosh, what is it with my face? Why are there 7 zits on my face?!! Pores seem to be getting bigger, too! Is it hormone (period due soon), or is it time to change my pillow case? Hmmph!

May be I should start using facial sheet mask again. Have stopped using mask for quite some time coz afraid of allergic reaction, although I don’t know if the mask is really the cause.

Anyway, I found this beauty ‘recipe’ on the internet that you may like to try if you like DIY skin care:

1 tsp raw honey + 1 tsp aloe vera juice

What to do: Stir honey and aloe until well blended. Paint mixture on face using a large, clean makeup brush, wait 15 minutes and rinse, says Josh Rosebrook, creator of the Josh Rosebrook organic skin-care line in Los Angeles.

Why it’s a beauty boon: When mixed with water, raw honey grabs onto water, creating a film that seals in moisture. It also fights breakouts because the glucose helps skin zap bacteria. Aloe contains nearly 75 nutrients that benefit skin, according to Jeannette Graf, M.D., assistant clinical professor of dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. And it delivers moisture deep down below skin’s surface.

Have also done a skin age test. Results showed that my skin age is 2 years younger than my actual age. Well, should I be happy about it? I want my skin to be at least 5 years younger than my actual age! :P

You can try the quiz and test your skin’s age by visiting this page.
