Almost everything I've listed below I've been able to pick up at the local village Co-op, and any of these items can instantly be turned into a face mask.

After reading this, I highly recommend checking out the contents of your kitchen, and then mashing, whipping, slicing, or blending any of these ingredients up . Put them on your face, and truly embrace being a food face. Your skin will thank you.

Now before we get started below, please do enjoy some slightly informational entertainment about today's subject. LOL. These are both parody videos; I do love a good parody and this time I found two. I decided to add them both because they each made me laugh and they remind me of my peeps back home in LA and San Diego. Also, each video, even though they are total parodies, still throws out some good info. Pick a video, any video.

This week I’m feeling somewhat sassy - maybe a dash of dark and dramatic - Courtney Love vibe, and she (and Hole) just so happen to have a classic from back in the day called “Celebrity Skin”.  Even though the song itself is not exactly about taking care of your skin, I’m just going to go with it and throw it in.  Also - twas a “Black Supermoon” last night, and that seems very Courtney-esque to me? Right? Okay, enjoy and then we talk about skin and such.

I’ve opted to lose myself in some books (MUCH LOVE to you Stephen King) and TV shows (MUCH LOVE to Netflix & Stranger Things). One of the Stephen King books I read is titled: “Insomnia”. And yes, I have had a couple of bouts of insomnia. As you can probably deduce, I have not gotten as much beauty rest as I probably should have.  Which all of this stuff combined, oddly brings me to this post about Aloe Vera. L.O.L.
