So, a lot of people have been asking me what beauty products I have been using on my skin lately. Might as well link to it.
These products have, quite literally, every single ingredient I ever wanted. Every. Single. Ingredient. All in one. I kept telling Krista (from Harmony Apotheca, now Etesian Plantaceuticalâ„¢ Skin Care) that it was as if she had read my mind without ever meeting me.

http://www.etsy.com/listing/84293185/2in1-manuka-honey-amazonian-body-butter
These are both excellent as anti-inflammatory salves for my joints and muscles and nerve pains and such. The cream smells very fresh, fruity, and floral, extremely clean and invigorating. The butter smells incredibly herbal, like strong sage and deep woods and young trees and a forest after rain.
I have been using these in my beauty routine, day and night, for over two weeks. My skin looks amazing. I am finally, after all these years, starting to feel truly satisfied. My body dysmorphic disorder, which as you know is focused on my skin, is actually slowly starting to back down. I didn't think that could happen.

Also, the most recent photos of my face made up. I like them.

I absolutely do NOT expect to get everything - but I do really really really want the blue perfect Zenni Optical eyeglasses and will find a way to buy them, unless someone plans on buying them for me (hey, I can dream). Also, I really want the Midnight Blue Light Special book and the Blue Feather Soaps Medicated Goo; and that's easy enough.
The TF supplement Picamilon is technically necessary - it may be a supplement here, but in Russia, it is an anti-depressant, anti-anxiety drug, created by Russian doctors. No, it does not intefere with my other drugs. It is Nicotinyl-Y-Aminobutyric Acid, a specific derivative of GABA and Niacin that crosses the blood-brain barrier and is used for mood enhancement, mental relaxation, and mental energy with focus. And it works for me. Thank you, Russia.

Someone asked. I forget.
The reason I always have moisturizing balms and creams everywhere I go is because my skin is very dry and sensitive and requires moisture, and not in the sense of petroleum or mineral oil (Vaseline, Chapstick); because that feels disgusting and also feels like plastic wrap on my skin. The lips cannot produce sebum on their own; they have no sebaceous glands. They need constant hydration. It is impossible to become "addicted to lip balm" - however, if one is constantly applying petroleum-based lip balms, they are not sufficiently hydrating the lips and skin, thus fueling the myth of lip balm addiction. Petroleum is an emollient that seals in moisture, but if there is no moisture to begin with, then the petroleum is useless. The idea is to use balms containing vegetable oils, plant oils, botanical oils, beeswax or flower wax. If those balms also contain petroleum/petrolatum, that is fine. An ideal blend would be snow white petrolatum and coconut oil or jojoba oil or shea butter. Blistex and Carmex and even Chapstick have some balms with such nourishing features. The point is, no matter the skin type, hydration and nourishment must happen.
Oily skin actually is dehydrated skin. Not dry - dehydrated. Too much sebum is produced at once, leading to constant, chronic dehydration of the deeper skin layers. Believe it or not, oils are the best solution, as they soak up and dissolve excess sebum. Coconut, grapeseed, olive, macadamia, rosehip, hazelnut, pumpkin, jojoba, shea, cocoa, camellia, flaxseed, hempseed, sesame, tamanu, and other vegetable oils, nut oils, and fruit oils are perfect for this.
Skin myths and rumors abound. Be aware of the facts. No matter the skin type, hydration and nourishment must happen, even if you insist you do not need it. If you must use petroleum based lotions and creams, they should only be applied, if at all, after the application of botanical oils, to seal in that hydration.
When in doubt or on a tight budget: grapeseed oil, olive oil, and coconut oil from a grocery store will do perfectly. In fact, coconut alone is incredibly nourishing and healing. It is highly antioxidant alongside grapeseed; ideal for acne prone skin, rosacea, oily and combination skin, and of course dry and sensitive skin; even scars and bruises will benefit. A tub of solid extra virgin coconut oil will last months; and no, it will not smell like artificial suntan oil. Coconut oil, along with cocoa butter and unrefined shea butter, is one of the original perfect all-around healing, antioxidant, anti-aging moisturizers. Honey, as well, can be carefully blended with coconut oil or grapeseed oil to create a blemish battling ointment, as honey contains various anti-microbial properties. Honey plus cinnamon, dabbed on a pimple of any kind, will help shrink and heal the pimple within days.
In conclusion: Do not neglect your lips. Licking them will not help. Using plain Chapstick will not moisturize them alone. Look for pure, unrefined oils and butters such as coconut, grapeseed, olive, shea, cocoa, pumpkin, flax, hemp, borage, camellia... you get the idea. The price will be worth it, and your skin will be quite grateful.

And now, I am going to bed.

This cosmetics stuff is for those who like to know these things (and also to distract myself from the storm horrors). Seriously, I've had friends specifically ask if I could post about my makeup. It's awesome.
 
My favorite full coverage concealers are:
ItCosmetics.com Bye Bye Concealer (my shade is Light)
Tarte Maracuja Creaseless Concealer (my shade is Light)
Kat Von D Tattoo Concealer (my shade is Light 18)
Almay Smart Shade Anti Aging Concealer (the red cap; my shade is Light)
CoverGirl Simply Ageless Concealer (my shade is Light 210)
LaurenBrookeConsmetiques.com Creme Concealer or Foundation (my respective shades are Warm Light and Warm 2)
CoryCosmetics.com Cream To Powder Concealers (my shade is Light Flesh) as well as Velvet Cream Foundation (my shade is Whipped Cream).

Now, all these concealers offer intense coverage to the point that they look almost like stage or film makeup, meaning that sometimes I wonder if my own face was Photoshopped to erase every single flaw and pore. I have found larger tubes of the It Cosmetics and Tarte on Ebay, which is worth the money. I would also like to add that MAC Studio Sculpt Foundation (I'm NC 15) and Urban Decay Naked Skin Foundation (I'm Shade 2.0) are also the most full coverage foundations I have ever used.
Every single product I've mentioned has skin caring, skin smoothing, and skin beneficial ingredients, with no petroleum or mineral oil. I hate using petroleum on my face because it caused problems (although if it's in a lipstick with lots of botanical oils and butters I don't mind, since lip flesh has no pores).

Now, my favorite lipcolors:
Revlon Lip Butter Lipstick in Red Velvet and Cherry Tart
Sally Hansen Moisture Twist Lipgloss in Cherry Twist and Berry Blend
It Cosmetics Vitality Lip Flush Lipstick in Pretty Woman and Love Story
Bare Escentuals BareMinerals Natural Lipstick in Red Zin, Italian Ice, and Passion Fruit
BareEscentuals Buxom Full Bodied Lipgloss in Va Va Voom, Hot Mama, and Hey Baby
Tarte Glamazon 12-Hour Lipstick in Wild
Tarte LipSurgence Lip Tint in Lust
Aveda Nourish and Uruku Lipstick in Cherrybud and Maracuja
BeingTrue Pure Lipstick in Temptress and Chanteuse
Studio Gear Lipstick in Super Star and Pink Quartz
The Body Shop Love Gloss Lipgloss in Raspberry

Most of these lipcolors are natural or at least have botanical oils and butters. The ones from Revlon and Studio Gear also have some petroleum, but I'm okay with that. I prefer lipcolors that help hydrate, plump, nourish, and smooth my lips. I'm not even going to list the dozens of lip balms I own.

Well, fuck.
Sorry to post these here, guys. But I am having one of those weird creepy mental moments, this time regarding body dysmorphic disorder. Logically and rationally, I know I am not full of bad excess fatness and ugliness and stupidness. Logically and rationally, I know I am a pretty girl and a beautiful woman and I am wonderful and amazing in many ways. But you know mental interestingness. It is always interesting. In that way that makes you want to beat it with a sledgehammer.
No teasing, please. No mocking, no creative harmless insults, no poor humor. Not even out of love. Not right now. Maybe later when I am feeling better; we shall laugh and share whiskey and watch science fiction and cartoons.
But you know what? I know I am not alone. I know I have comfort out there. I know things will be all right. I know people understand so deeply that it goes beyond the soul. You know who you are, and I love you. <3

I know it seems like a pricey fuck ton, but these were obtained with discounts, coupons, and promo codes, and I bought them all at different times, and they last a very long time. Questions are always welcome.

Also, because of that mild BDD and OCD, I have gotten so used to wearing concealer or heavy coverage foundation so often that I feel very strange and creepy without it. Thankfully, a photo I posted on Facebook received enough honest positive supportive comments to help me feel much less insecure.

Raesin Images is back in business after the November holiday, for which I am grateful.
For reference, my shade is Linen 2. Never has a makeup color been so precise. This is a favorite for ingredients, color, and coverage.
http://www.raesinimages.com/cream-mineral-foundation.htm

Then again, I also have Lauren Brooke, which matches me with Warm 2 (foundation) and Light Warm (concealer) beautifully. Also a favorite for ingredients and coverage,
http://www.laurenbrookecosmetiques.com/store-products-CF-100-Creme-Foundation_1096667281.html
http://www.laurenbrookecosmetiques.com/store-products-CC-120-Creme-Concealer_1096734855.html

And there's also 100 Percent Pure Foundation in Creme (a favorite for ingredients) and Earth's Beauty Cream Concealer in Light Beige (a favorite for high coverage).

I guess all these shades would fall under the Fair Neutral Warm Olive Beige tones. I do have very very pale Mediterranean skin. That could be the Greek/Sicilian. However, my Snow White look in winter could be the Romanian/Hungarian. Who knows. I am extremely pale in winter but I tan after mild burning in summer.

I really must find a proper color consultant for skin and makeup. I believe I am Neutral leaning toward Warm. Very pink-toned makeup makes me look ashy, and very yellow-toned makeup makes me look sickly. So far, the matching products I have found from physical stores have included Smashbox High Definition concealer in Fair, Too Faced Absolutely Flawless Concealer in Vanilla, CoverFX ConcealFX Camouflage Concealer in X-Light, Coverblend Multi-Function Concealer in Light, MAC Studio Sculpt Foundation in NC15, and Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation in Soft Ivory.
While it is wonderful to have those choices, it still doesn't help me figure out exactly what my undertones are. My veins are both green and blue. I can wear bold gold and silver. Most colors of clothing look fine on me. (I do hate most orange shades in both cosmetics and clothing. I hate very bright and loud shades. Perhaps because I prefer to be hidden?)

My mother, the fashion illustrator and painter, says I am Olive and Neutral with a bit of Warm and a bit of Beige. That only confuses me more.

I should just be overjoyed that Raesin Images has given me a perfect match in Linen 2, more than anything else.

A while back, I was asked why I prefer helichrysum oil in my skin care. It's costly, it's rare, and it doesn't have the prettiest fragrance. But it packs a fucking punch. (Also, it works so well with tamanu and sea buckthorn to smooth out scars and blemishes that it makes me weep.)
http://www.naturesgift.com/HelichrysumHealing.htm

A while back, I was asked why I prefer helichrysum oil in my skin care. It's costly, it's rare, and it doesn't have the prettiest fragrance. But it packs a fucking punch. (Also, it works so well with tamanu and sea buckthorn to smooth out scars and blemishes that it makes me weep.)

My current favorite helichrysum-infused products that give me the best emotional reactions:

I would add another Etsy product but it's not up yet. It is, sort of, but in a smaller size. The larger size will be avaiable soon. I helped create the product my very self. It's amazing. It's here:

Also, as far as aromatherapy goes, helichrysum is one of the best when it comes to emotional and spiritual therapy. It's like if a precious gemstone were a flower extract.

Oh, latte, sweet vanilla latte.
Mmm.
Yes.

Tuesday went into heat yesterday. Poor thing. If life were simple we'd get her fixed; but surgery and recovery would prove too dangerous for the asthma. At least Jupiter still has no idea what's going on, much less what his penis is for. Instinct will kick in soon enough, though. I hope Jason gets the money to get that boy neutered soon. My main worry is whether or not Tuesday will have a critical attack when she comes out of heat. I pray all this medication -- prednisone, terbutaline, allergy shots -- will prevent that. If not... my heart is already breaking.

I'm in less pain than usual. Even my aching, swelling, stabby-pained knees are behaving, somewhat. I've been massaging the Chae Pro Organics CoQ10 Face Cream into them, because it contains MSM and glucosamine and sea buckthorn and helichrysum. Great stuff. It's cooling and soothing.
I can't wait for that package from Sevi. It should be here very soon. It has her new MSM body lotion, the one I'll be testing and naming. I'll start thinking of stuff for her website's newsletter tonight. Then I will announce her new products here and, ahem, encourage you all to go take a look. Hell, look anyway. Especially the face cream I proudly helped reformulate. Seriously, it's awesome.
