A few weeks ago, my face exploded. Okay, not literally. But after a little misunderstanding with my birth control, it seems my hormones got a little out of whack.

And took it out on my face.

As I was dealing with the outbreak of nastiness, I realized it had been quite a while since I’d had a zit of any kind.

Now, I’m not totally ignorant. I know that, in general, I have good skin. But since the wonder years of adolescence until recently, I would have a small eruption every few weeks.

And then I started using Mary Kay.

I know, I know! I sound like an infomercial. But it’s true.

See, my friend Katie started selling Mary Kay a few years ago. I wanted to be supportive, but, well, I’m cheap. And so, I bought an occasional lipstick from her, but I stuck with my Cover Girl and Clean & Clear from Walmart.

Last Christmas, she wore me down. I mean, convinced me. I mean, reminded me that I was now in my THIRTIES. Anyway – I bought Mary Kay’s TimeWise cleanser and moisturizer.

Ever since, my face has been more consistently clear. That’s why I was so surprised when my face exploded a few weeks ago.

In addition to selling me her magic potions – I mean, Mary Kay products – and the first mascara that made me put down the pink and green tube, Katie also sponsors Giving Up on Perfect.
