It seems no matter how beautiful a woman is, she is ALWAYS self-conscious about something. Whether it is her skin, hair, height, or weight, there is always some "flaw" that bothers her. For me I am mostly self-conscious about my intellect and many other mental aspects of myself. However, of course there are some physical things that I dislike about myself too.
For a at least five years I have been disappointed with the size of my chest. Within the last couple of years however they seem to have grown to fit my body. Still I would like my chest to be a little bit bigger so I appear more womanly. Thoughts of cosmetic surgery have entered my mind but I do not believe them to be serious thoughts. Id probably end up with a third breast or something!!! Perhaps if I have children my chest might expand a little bit, anyways. In the case that it does not, I will not be all that upset. My chest is rather proportionate to my small frame, but again, curves are lovely!
Another thing that bothers me greatly is my skin. I do not have terrible acne on my face, but it always seems that when I get rid of one pimple another pops up else where! Because I am so pale I also tend to get a lot of redness in my face. Soooooo....I have been looking around the past couple months to see if I could find any anti-acne products that would work for me. Looking at review after review, I finally decided to try out the AcneFree Sever to Clear System.
Again, I do NOT have sever acne but reviews said this product is gentle enough for mild blemishes. I was able to purchase this system at Wal*Mart for $25. I feel that is a good price. It is way cheaper than proactive and it will last me for at least 4 months (I hope haha). Any who, I started using this product and noticed results almost immediately! On day 3 I saw that my face already lost a lot of its redness and my blemishes diminished in size. It is a really easy system to follow and the ingredients do not burn your skin. I recommend this product for anyone with mild-severe acne and all skin types. However, we must keep in mind that everyone's biological makeup is different and something that works for one person may not work for another. Still, it won't hurt to give things a try!

One more thing that I MAJORLY DISLIKE about my body is...hair. Evil evil hair! I am making myself out to sound like a gorilla but it really is not that bad I swear haha! It just seems that whenever I shave my legs, there is already growth by the next day. That means I have to shave my legs every other day just so I don't gross myself out, let alone others.
I have tried all sorts of shavers for women, shavers made for men, and even some "gel hair removers". The shavers made for women just plain old SUCK. I find that the shavers made for men are a lot better but still they do not last long. I have tried Nair products as well. DUMBEST IDEA EVER! They smell, they burn, make your legs red and itchy, and plain old DON'T WORK FOR SHIT! Waxing was a pain too. Literally. It always takes off the first layer of skin and just leaves your legs looking awful and vulnerable.
However, I no longer have to worry about all of that terrible stuff now. About a month ago I heard about a wonderful little thing called an epilator. Epilators are small hand held devices that look almost like an electric shaver, but instead of razors it has dozens of little tweezers instead. Just like a regular set of tweezers, the epilator plucks the hair from the skin, leaving the area
nice and smooth. Many epilators are said to stop hair growth for up to four weeks.
I purchased the epilator pictured below. Since there are 40 tweezers on the head of this little guy, I was a bit nervous about whether or not it would be painful. So instead of jumping right into things, I epilated? a small area on my arm. The feeling was not exactly pleasant but it did not hurt much either. It was a bit scary though because the epilator sounds like a lawn mower! Yet it did not hurt. It just felt odd but I was comfortable enough to use it on my legs. The only time it hurt was when I got close to behind the knee. Since the area is so sensitive I had to be careful and quick about my movements.
The internet says you can use the epilator on your legs, arms, underarms, bikini line, and even on your face. I cannot imagine someone putting one of those things near their face, but hey, whatever floats your hoagie.
Anyways, I epilated a week ago and my legs are STILL hairless and soft. It cost me $60 for the system but I feel it is well worth it. I will be saving a lot of money since I do not have to by tons and tons of disposable razors anymore. The device is also supposed to last for many years .

This blog post makes me sound like I worry too much about my looks. I do worry to certain extent but I do not feel I am obsessed with looking beautiful. Many days I barely run a brush through my hair and completely ignore putting on makeup. Yet other days I would like to feel nice about myself. People also seem to respect you more if you respect yourself and take care of your body.
Ugh...I have typed too much haha. I don't think anyone really reads my blog and those that do will probably not find this post to be interesting. Oh wells! Tis 2:30 in the morning and I think it is perhaps time for me to get of the computer. I think I am in the mood to write some poetry. The past couple of nights She has been on on my mind and I feel compelled to write of her beauty and power. That is what I shall now do...

Hey there
ReplyDeleteI totally get what your meaning about looks and curves on woman i prefer to draw curvy woman. Its all silly sometimes about expectations of woman and appearance even tho theirs always someone who will find someone else attractive.
Im a pretty thin girl too and have a small chest myself but i look at the positive side to these traits.
My chest will never get in the way and i know men/woman lol wont stare at that the whole time im talking to them. And being skinny is odd cause i get girls that come up to me that are curvy or even thin and say how much they want my figure. Its really weird when thats usually i think about them or think their super pretty.
It sounds like i have the same type of skin as you aswell, ive heard of this stuff before and it seems good. But i live in the Uk and part of my skin is cause of meds im on. Thanks for recommending it tho <3
Im glad you also found a product that works for you and a product for your hair. My hair is weird aswell but if im not showing my legs/underarms to anyone then i end up not caring lol Keeps me warm when its cold which is often here XD.
But i do shave for me every few days or so cause i know that icky feeling. Thanks for sharing all the info and products tho, i enjoy discussing image and beauty with other woman.
Thanks for your response, dear Debz!
ReplyDeleteHehe I think you and I do appear very similar appearance wise. For the most party I am very happy with my figure. Lately I see more and more girls who have extra weight they want to get rid of but just can't for some reason. It makes me happy that I do not have that problem.
Haha, a guy once told me that I should not have to shave my legs because for thousands of years women did not shave and it only became popular within the past 20 years or so. I however cannot go too long without shaving (unless its winter hahahahaha)
Oh I also wanted to thank you for uploading those stories onto Youtube. They are wonderfully in sync and very clear. Such a pleasure to listen to <3
I do hope you are well. It is always so very lovely to hear from you. ^_^
heys
ReplyDeleteYay im glad! <3
Im soooooo happy you like them i get all happy when i upload them and was hoping other people would like them too!
I try my best i need to update my own blog soon cause im silly that way. Its nice to hear from you to <3
