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.

So this week the weather here in my neck of the woods has gone back to being completely bipolar, with splashes of sun mingled in with all this Noah's Ark rain and wind and chaos. With all the weather nonsense, walks in natural surroundings I was happily blogging about a few weeks ago aren't as accessible as I want them to be, so they quite simply aren’t happening every day. Also, the regular yoga has taken more of a back seat at the moment as I want to get more active and move around more right now. I think that’s part of the whole fit thing, going with YOUR own flow and doing what feels right for YOU on any given day. This is me lately. And I feel like Hula Hooping and jumping on my Mini Trampoline :)

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.

Walking. Over the years this simple exercise has helped me feel like a God-honest better human being whenever I incorporate it into my regular routine. The simple act of putting on a pair of walking shoes and leaving the safe haven of my house, of stepping into the great big natural world outside has made my head space, and a happy bonus, gotten my buns in a much better state.

The occasional eruptions were hideous.  And equally hideous were the terribly obvious moments where I couldn't touch an emotion with a ten foot pole.

So onto the topic of aging. This subject is near and dear to me, only partially because it comes up in daily conversation with other women (and men) of all ages. Really, every single day. When you’re going though your own day, just see how often aging comes up. Wait till you pay attention to the frequency, it’s kind of shocking.
