Jul. 8th, 2007 11:38 amMostly I'm doing well. D. got a fancy new bathroom scale that uses an electrical scan of some sort to check BMI and both it and my weight are within healthy bounds. I'm maintaining the buff wiriness that comes with frequent fencing, even if supplementing with weights has kinda fallen by the wayside.
So maybe I shouldn't complain, but while I was out and about yesterday I stopped in the local makeup shop and windowlicked the pretty lipsticks, blushes, etc. and I was reminded why I don't wear much makeup anymore: my skin is kinda trainwrecked :/
It's not the extent - I only have a few spots - its that they don't heal up quickly or well. The fencing mask rubs my chin and what zits I do have get irritated. My habit of scratching them when they itch doesn't help :(
No lipstick 'cos I tend to bite my lips when I concentrate. It's silly to put MAC on when it's just going to get gnawed off :P
I've tried moisturizer, glutamine, antibiotic cream and none of these make much difference. What I really need to do is keep my hands off my face.
Ideas for breaking bad habits welcome.
