Speaking of facial creams, do you have sensitivites?
Comments (7)Valerie, had you thought at all about seeing a dermatologist and not waiting for your January appointment? My niece has just about the most sensitive, driest skin in the world, she gets a fragrance free prescription cream that the druggist compounds for her - it keeps her skin healthy and soft. If you want to know specifically what your irritant is an allergist might be the way to go but a dermatologist might be quicker route for relief. Your stuffy nose, eye irritating experiences with skin care products don't sound that odd to me, I wonder if added fragrance in those products isn't contributing to your issues. Perfumes/scents and the suncreens/blocks everyone preaches to us to slather on are both notorious for causing irritation, but I don't have a suggestion for you for an over the counter cream that is inexpensive and effective. Nothing is cheap if you can't use it and have to toss it :)...See Morewith what do you frost an ice cream cake?
Comments (11)I'm copying a "bigger chain" who has the oreo crust on their ice cream cake ;) Maybe I'll just be sure not to smash it down too hard? so it can be cut. I'm still deciding on the topping. I might even use a "fluffier" frosting (Ree Drummond) that looks like it might stay stablized (with flour in it?!) well through freezing, and somewhat thawing. It won't be frozen when it's cut. I did think whipped cream, but I can't see how it'll stand up well, even without freezing it, just adding it right before serving it? I thought about using a can of Reddi wip, cream out of a can that you spray on? It's pretty good, tastewise and it might work for much the same reasons as cool whip. Maybe. He just likes to try to make his own cake. Part of the fun! He doesn't care what it looks like, yet. Wait'll he's been cooking as long as ann's or calillo's son. Then, he'll care. Probably. :) Here is a link that might be useful: The best frosting I've ever had-her words......See MoreCan you recommend a really good facial moisturizer?
Comments (25)My dermatologist recommended CeraVe. I use the moisturizing lotion on my face, morning and night -- haven't tried the one with sunblock. I slather the moisturizing cream (in a jar) all over the rest of me after I bathe. (And I do mean *slather*.) I know the cream is intended for the face, but I don't care. I like this much better than Lubriderm or any oil. She also recommended Cetaphil body wash, but it leaves a sort of greasy feel. I was told to avoid hot baths -- not doing that either. (Bad patient.) Maybe it I 'cut' the Cetaphil with baking soda, like Sushipup... Who has something good for the cuticles? Mine want to take over my nails. I can't push them back without bleeding -- even after a bath -- and then they won't stay back. There's no 'give' there. At 75, my skin is too thin. Well, *I* am too thin, too. BTW, it's my understanding that we have skin to form a protective *barrier*. This means none of the products you put ON your skin go much beyond the surface. Some of the products 'rough up' (destroy) the top layer of cells so that they slough off faster (the 'glow'), but a 'moisturizer' can really only put a layer of protection between your skin and the drying air. 'Moisturizers' that promise more should probably all be labeled "Hope" or "Faith" or "The Power of Positive Thinking" because our protective layer of skin won't let them penetrate. They can only help keep drying air away from whatever moisture is IN the skin....See MoreWhat kind of facial do you get?
Comments (19)I'm in my late fifties. I did have temporary sun worship when I first moved to Florida in 78'. That lasted maybe two years off and on. It seems my skin (and hair) get real funky when I start swimming in the pool several times a week, usually starting April 1st. It really hit me today when my sons friend took some pictures of us before his takeoff on another trip. I really look bad, bad hair, weird tired looking face. Fugly. I'm disgusted I tell ya! Anyway, to tell the truth I don't know what half the (from my list) stuff is. So, I think I'll take the advice of the 60 minute job. Hopefully I'll get someone good who can educate me on something stronger in the future. Maybe a blow torch....See Moreblfenton
