Good Grief!

So, went to the doctor today for a follow-up with my diabetes. Blood sugar's in great shape. On the other hand my face is a mess. One eye lid is red and puffy, my face is broken out (there's not enough make up in the world!). Diagnosis: allergies.

I've been using Mary Kay moisturizer with sunscreen. I'm super fair skinned so I need sunscreen. I'm allergic to the moisturizer. Back to Oil of Olay. My eye is probably a combination of the Mary Kay and hand sanitizer with fragrance. I didn't look at the ingredients; I work with kids, hand sanitizer is a must.

Doctor recommended a patch test for anything new I decide to try on my skin. Oh and I have rosacea, but I actually knew that. So, armed with an antibiotic and something to help me sleep properly (different issue) and my handy bottle of Oil of Olay I should go back to looking like an adult and not an acne prone teenager.

You know, I had perfect skin as a kid. Getting older sucks!  :-p
